CL's U.S. debut receives explosive attention and anticipation from local media


Source: My Daily via Naver

1. [+1239, -57]  YG made the best choice by signing PSY into their company before he hit it big with Gangnam Style.  Though CL does have the skills for it, it's easier for them to advance into America largely thanks to PSY.  There's a lot of talk debating whether PSY is a world star or not but the obvious reality is he plays a big role in allowing our artists to expand overseas.

2. [+1040, -165]  Even if she doesn't make it big, don't you think she'll at least succeed? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ CL's really cool no matter how you look at her and 2NE1 is appreciated overseas

3. [+886, -112]  Well, she is the type that foreigners will like

4. [+693, -67]  It'd be great if she did well

5. [+676, -68]  Awesome!!!  CL, fighting!!!!!!!!

6. [+113, -19]  CL's stage presence is incredible at her young age.  She's someone you'll be proud of and won't be taken down no matter where she goes.  She has no problem with the language, her live is stable, and she has a suitable aura.  Why am I praising her to this extent?  Come back to me after you've watched her perform.

7. [+92, -15]  I don't know if she can rap all that well but the charisma and image CL gives off is honestly amazing.  I think they'll like her in the U.S. too

8. [+92, -21]  Since 2NE1 has a lot of hit songs under their belt, they still have a reasonable level of popularity in the U.S.~

9. [+76, -13]  Unnie come back here after you sweep out America♥

10. [+79, -20]  Foreigners aside from actual K-pop fans don't really like or aren't aware of our music.  However, there are a few stages that they've acknowledged like GD & TOP's 'Knock Out' stage and CL's 'MTBD + The Baddest Female'.  Foreigners were surprised that Korean artists could be like that after they saw those stages.  It will be hard and she might get hate since they still aren't familiar with her but I think there isn't any other Korean artist who can succeed as well as CL can over there right now.  For those saying that she can't make it big because they'll discriminate against Asians?  Then are we supposed to confine ourselves forever just because we're scared of that?  We should at least try and challenge ourselves.
