2NE1 member Sandara Park has shared the hard work she put into preparing for her standout look at Waterbomb.

On September 10th, Sandara Park uploaded a video titled "Showing My Best Self—Waterbomb Vibes with Dara!" on her YouTube channel 'DARA TV.'

Recently, Sandara and her team have been balancing their busy schedule with preparing for the 2NE1 reunion concert and getting ready for Waterbomb in Singapore.

When she arrived in Singapore for the event, Sandara Park was grateful for the fan gifts she received, including a butter cookie, which she promised to enjoy after her performance.

She proudly showed off her abs, saying, "My body looks great now. It’s impressive under the lights; it’s not a joke." However, she also admitted, "My whole body is about to crumble. I’m at a point where I can’t even dance, but I have to."

After practicing late into the night and waking up to exercise on the treadmill, Sandara maintained her rigorous fitness routine.

Though she worried about the rain, it cleared up in time for the event. Despite focusing on her abs, she delivered a high-energy performance, drenched from the Waterbomb.

After the show, she met up with CL, who was also at the event. Sandara said, "It’s the first time we’ve come together like this, and it’s been so much fun." She added, "Seeing CL again, she’s still amazing. A charismatic leader."

On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
