Girl band 2NE1’s contract with YG Entertainment will end next year. Meanwhile company president Yang Hyun-suk will focus on CL’s debut in the United States.
Yang and 2NE1’s members will then decide whether to extend their contract, he told a press conference after boy group ICON’s debut performance at Olympic Park in Songpa-gu, Seoul, Saturday.
CL has been preparing to release an album in the U.S. this fall, but Yang did not disclose the details. The singer made her presence felt globally when she appeared on a Skrillex track, “Dirty Vibe,” last year, and released the song “Doctor Pepper” in May this year.
“I will think about 2NE1’s next career move after CL has made a successful debut in the U.S.,” Yang said.
