K-pop group 2NE1 surprised fans with a sudden announcement of their long-awaited and official comeback.

YG Entertainment and the group members' social media pages shared a poster of the girls with the caption "Welcome Back," sparking joy among Blackjacks (fandom of the group).

The girl group's return caused a frenzy on social media, particularly on X (formerly Twitter), where they trended worldwide at number one.

Fans couldn't contain their excitement as well when YG Entertainment's founder, Yang Hyun-suk, announced the group's upcoming activities in an official YouTube video. These plans include a global tour starting in Seoul, South Korea, in October 2024. This will be followed by dates in Japan in November and December.

2NE1's comeback marks their 15th debut anniversary, and all members were eager to celebrate the occasion with a grand reunion with their fans.

Earlier in February, Blackjacks were thrilled when Sandara Park shared an Instagram photo of her with fellow members inside an elevator.

The second-generation K-pop group 2NE1 is known globally for its hits such as "Fire," "I AM THE BEST," "I Don't Care," and many more. The group consists of talented singers Sandara Park, Park Bom, Minzy, and CL.

Although the group disbanded in 2016, fans were pleasantly surprised by their reunion on stage at Coachella in 2022. Since then, the fandom eagerly wished to see the group reunited once again in the K-pop industry.
