Jewelry Releases “Pass” Single
After their successful return to the industry earlier this year with “Back It Up”, Jewelry is back with their newest single “Pass”.

2NE1’s Lack of Promotions Upset Netizens
Netizens were left very disappointed after it was revealed that 2NE1 would not be participating in any promotional activities for their new single ‘Lonely’.
Their new single is due for release on May 12th, but the group’s company YG Entertainment has decided against the girls participating in any of the music shows. Instead it was decided that the group will make their comeback stages later on when they release a more upbeat single that is easier to dance to on stage.
Many netizens are upset about this, further fuelled by their disappointment of Park Bom’s lack of promotions for her solo single ‘Don’t Cry’. Some netizens have even suggested that YG Entertainment does not have enough confidence for the girls to perform well solely based on their vocal abilities, and that it should not just be upbeat and danceable songs that get to participate in promotions.

Also if you take a closer look at the beginning of the MV there is a little mistake since Hye Won’s name is written as Hey Won, probably just a cute typo, that will surely cause some discussion among the fans.
Take a look at the video and rember that they will promote two tracks this time, so be ready for the next MV that will feature the song ‘Without You’.
