2NE1 'Ugly', making waves all over the world through social networking sites

2NE1 who have made their comeback with new song 'Ugly' and hold the record for having '5 continuous all-kills' is making news for creating hit music videos as well.
On 27 July, YG Entertainment broadcasted 2NE1's Ugly music video on their Youtube channel; within 3 days, the number of views exceeded 800,000. On 29 July, the figure was close to 1,000,000 views. In addition, the video is spreading like wildfire on portals, social networking sites, personal blogs, etc., and is creating quite a sensation.
The song is gaining attention because its sad lyrics which express the hurt that those who aren't pretty receive from people's judgements is set to an up-tempo rock melody.
In particular, the chorus, 'I think I'm ugly and nobody wants to love me. Just like her, I wanna be pretty' is fun, but at the same time is highly relatable to anyone who has ever fretted over his or her looks.
The music video captures the distinctive 2NE1 charm and adds on the unique lyrics of the song to end on an extraordinary note. The vibrant colours and imaginary performance concept is definitely enough to capture the eyes and ears of viewers.
In addition, there are rumors that overseas fans are flooding internet message boards with comments on the song. One overseas fan had this to say, "2NE1 always creates songs that gives listeners enjoyment. I think this is especially so with this song. Please create an English version too."
Meanwhile, 2NE1 who have started their busy activities for ‘Ugly’ will hold their first solo concert ‘NOLZA’ from 26 August to 28 August and will officially debut in Japan in September.

[110728][news] 2ne1 makes their 5th all kill this year with ugly
Girl group 2NE1 has seized the charts for the 5th time in a row, and are once again making history in the K-POP world.
On the 28th at midnight, 2NE1 released their new song, Ugly, and claimed first place on several online music real time charts, including Melon, Bugs, Soribada, Dosirak, and MNET, today around noon. In this year alone, they have a record of reaching the top of the charts five times.
Previously, 2NE1 had topped the charts with the release of all of their new songs, Don't Cry, Lonely, I am the Best, and Hate You. Now with Ugly, they have had scored a record of five all-kills in one year alone.
Ugly has lyrics that speak about one's own ugly appearance, and the pain that they receive when people stare at them because of that. The lyrics are accompanied with a contrasting rock sound, transforming the song and giving the listener a peculiar feeling. It's a song that has a charismatic powerful rock sound that matches an electronic beat.
The concept for 2NE1's new song this time is unique in itself. It takes into account the meaning of title, ugly, and unattractive, and the four members shout out "I am not pretty". While girl groups these days use their pretty, stylish outer appearances as their weapons for their activities, the topic that 2NE1 chooses is 'honesty'.
Responsible for 2NE1's past hit songs, YG's representative producer, Teddy, also took part in the production this time as well. There is a rock sound that infiltrates the entire song, along with an electronic genre which shows off 2NE1's musical style, giving the song a mix of two different colours. One of the interesting points about Ugly is that there is no rap part.
In addition, in the rapidly changing online world of music, the fact that this gives them a record of their fifth 'All Kill' in a row makes it special. Last year, 2NE1 was able to show off 3 songs as title songs, embarking in a very powerful promotion style. Previously, they would reveal the other songs on the album one by one. This year, it was the first time anyone has dominated the music market with a 'countdown' release method. In the end, all the songs that were released received a lot of love.
Meanwhile, 2NE1 is entering into promotions with 'Ugly', and from August 26th to 28th, they will be hosting their first ever solo concert, NOLZA. In September, they are planning to make their official debut in Japan.

2NE1 - UGLY [HD]
Korean
[CL] 밝게 웃어보지만
내 맘에 들지 않아
난 예쁘지 않아 아름답지 않아
Oh oh oh oh x2
[박봄] 노랠 불러보지만
아무도 듣지 않아
난 예쁘지 않아 아름답지 않아
Oh oh oh oh x2
[다라] 난 왜 이렇게 못난 걸까
어떡하면 나도 너처럼 환하게 웃어볼 수 있을까
[민지] 또 화가나 왜 늘 완벽하지 못해
이 깨진 거울 속 못난 모습을 향해 탓하기만 해
[박봄] 쳐다보지마 지금 이 느낌이 싫어 난
어디론가 숨고만 싶어 벗어 나고 싶어
이 세상은 거짓말
[CL] I think I’m ugly

Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be pretty
Don’t lie to my face tellin’ me I’m pretty
I think I’m ugly
And nobody wants to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be pretty
Don’t lie to my face cuz I know I’m ugly
[민지] 날 쉽게 이해한다고 하지마
못 생기고 삐뚤어진 내 마음이 널 원망할지도 몰라
[박봄] 말 시키지마 난 너와 어울리지 못해
그 잘난 눈빛 속 차가운 가식이 날 숨막히게 해
[민지] 다가오지마 너의 관심조차 싫어 난
어디론가 떠나고 싶어 소리 치고 싶어
이 세상은 거짓말
[CL] I think I’m ugly
And nobody wants to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be pretty
Don’t lie to my face tellin’ me I’m pretty

따뜻함이란 없어
곁엔 아무도 없어
All alone
I’m all alone X2
I’m always all alone
따뜻함이란 없어
곁엔 그 누구도 날 안아줄 사람 없어
[CL] I think I’m ugly
And nobody wants to love me

Translation
[CL] I'm trying to smile brightly but
I don't like it
I'm not pretty, I'm not beautiful
Oh oh oh oh x 2
[BOM] I'm trying to sing but
No one is listening
I'm not pretty, I'm not beautiful
Oh oh oh oh x 2
[DARA] Why am I this ugly
What must I do for me to be able to smile brightly like you?
[MINJI] I'm getting angry again, why can't I ever be perfect
I simply put the blame on my ugly appearance in this broken mirror
[BOM] Don't look at me, I hate this feeling right now
I want to hide away somewhere, I want to escape
This world is full of lies
[CL] I think I'm ugly
And nobody wants to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be pretty
Don't lie to my face tellin' me I'm pretty
I think I'm ugly
And nobody wants to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be pretty
Don't lie to my face cuz I know I'm ugly
[MINJI] Don't tell me that you can understand me so easily
My ugly and crooked heart may even come to resent you
[BOM] Don't force me to talk, I'm not right for you
The cold thorns inside that patronizing gaze suffocate me
[MINJI] Don't come closer, I don't even want your concern
I want to leave away to somewhere, I want to shout out
This world is full of lies
[CL] I think I'm ugly
And nobody wants to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be pretty
Don't lie to my face tellin' me I'm pretty
I think I'm ugly
And nobody wants to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be pretty
Don't lie to my face cuz I know I'm ugly
[DARA] All alone
I'm all alone x 2
There is no such thing as warmth
There is no one by my side
All alone
I'm all alone x 2
I'm always alone
There's no such thing as warmth
Next to my side, there's not even anyone to embrace me
[CL] I think I'm ugly
And nobody wants to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be prety
Don't lie to my face tellin' me I'm pretty
I think I'm ugly
And nobody wants to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be pretty
Don't lie to my face cuz I know I'm ugly
