The ladies of 2NE1 who recently traveled to Vietnam for a performance were met with an explosive warm welcome from their Hanoi fans.
‘Concert in Vietnam with 2NE1‘ (sponsored by KOTRA as well as Silk Road CNT) was held from November 18th to the 20th, and the number of people in the audience for the first show far exceeded everyone’s expectations.
The Vietnamese media also showed their high interest in the girls. Over 60 different media outlets were at the performance to cover the concert, as the girls performed in front of 3,500 loyal Vietnamese fans.
2NE1 belted out their hits like “Go Away“, and “Can’t Nobody” for an hour straight. The fans sang along to the Korean lyrics, and they reportedly thoroughly enjoyed the party-like atmosphere as if they were at a local nightclub.
The members who completed their first concert in Vietnam remarked, “I don’t know why it took us so long to come to Vietnam. We would have come sooner if we knew the fans were so passionate… We want to come back here soon“.
This event was especially more meaningful as the winners from the Cover Dance Contest were invited to join 2NE1, and part of the profits from the performance will be donated to help build new schools in Hanoi.
In related news, the girls will be in Japan on the 24th to perform at Kobe Memorial Hall.
