Universal Records and 2NE1PH, in cooperation with MYX, Astroplus and Odyssey, invite you to 2NE1 Album Launch Event for "The First Mini-Album Repackage" and "To Anyone" on January 15 (Saturday).

This exciting and fun-filled event will be held for the first time in four (4) venues:

- Odyssey Megamall
- Odyssey in SM Bacoor

It's hard to believe that 2NE1 has only been around for a year. YG Entertainment's fierce girl group already seemed like pros when they made their debut in 2009, and shot straight to the top of K-Pop charts with hits like "Lollipop", "Fire" and "I Don't Care". The girls are not only big in Korea, they've attracted a huge following overseas, particularly in Southeast Asia. Soon they will promoting their brand of music in the U.S., Canada, Australia and Japan! The Philippine Version of 2NE1's "The First Mini Album Repackage” comes with all seven (7) songs that are in the 2009 Korean Version, plus four (4) additional tracks and a DVD with five (5) music videos.

Their “To Anyone" album topped various music charts (Hanteo, Melon, Soribada) & music shows (MNet's M! Countdown, Music Bank’s K-Chart, Inkigayo's Mutizen Award), entering the Top 10 on iTunes in the U.S. and even peaked at #7 on the Billboard Top 10 World Albums Chart! The pre-orders for the album reached 120,000 copies and sold more than 100,000 copies in 5 days, according to YG Entertainment. The music videos of “Can’t Nobody,” “Go Away,” and “Clap Your Hands” have been viewed 8.69 million times on YouTube in just one week, making the 2NE1 YouTube channel the #1 most viewed for the week. The album contains 12 tracks including “Can’t Nobody” “Go Away” “Clap Your Hands" and "It Hurts"

At the “2010 Mnet Asian Music Awards” held this past November, 2NE1 won the ‘Album of the Year Award’ for 'To Anyone', ‘Female Group Award’, ‘Best Digital Single Award’ and the ‘Musical Award’, for a total of 4 distinctive honors. While at 2010 MMA (Melon Music Awards), 2NE1 won the ‘Album Award’ for 'To Anyone' and the ‘Melon Music Award Top 10. In the Philippines,when Universal Records serviced "Go Away" MV to MYX, the #1 Music Channel in the Philippines, the MV immediately debuted in their countdown after 3 days and is currently #1 in ALL MYX CHARTS for 2 consecutive weeks (except Pinoy MYX Countdown)! This really shows how popular 2NE1 are in the Philippines and how Blackjacks are dedicated in making 2NE1 the biggest K-Pop girl group in the Philippines.

2NE1 are now preparing for their 2011 Japanese Invasion under Avex label (Tohoshinki, BoA, Super Junior, f(x)) in February!
