Dara reveals she got fillers a month before debut, got phone taken away because of G-Dragon
On the July 18th episode of the JTBC program “Salty Dangpo”, representatives from girl groups of different Kpop generations, including Chae Rina, Narsha, Sandara Park, and ITZY Chaeryeong appeared.
Among them, Narsha is a prime example of debuting from a small company and achieving success. Talking about her experience, Narsha coolly discussed plastic surgery and beauty procedures, saying, “They told us to (get plastic surgery) a week before appearing on music shows. I was so surprised. I wondered if it was okay to go on the show in such a condition. I was jealous of the girl groups from large entertainment companies. They all looked so pretty, and their outfits were so beautiful.”
In response to Narsha, Sandara Park replied, “Actually, we also invested a lot in music videos and outfits. We poured a lot into training, but a month before our debut, they suddenly told us to go to a dermatologist.”
Accordingly, Sandara Park got her first fillers 1 month before debuting with 2NE1, and this confession took everyone by surprise.
“We were the first girl group from YG”, the female idol also said, before evoking laughter by saying, “Before that, it was all male artists who achieved success, so we didn’t know how to do girl group activities.”
As the conversation continued, they revealed items they brought to “Dangpo”. In particular, Sandara Park took out the old cell phone she used in 2009 and revealed a shocking story about it. She said, “It was taken away from me because of Kwon Ji Yong. The boss took it and later returned it to me. It’s a valuable phone to me.”
“We did an advertisement for this cellphone, and actually used it back then”, adding “I was quite famous among male celebrities at that time. That’s why I received many calls from different people, but I didn’t tell the boss. Even when I received calls from men, I ignored them and didn’t reply”, she explained.
Sandara Park continued, “But one day, a man got frustrated so he met G-Dragon and complained, saying ‘Dara noona doesn’t contact me’. G-Dragon told me that he felt good upon hearing that. We (2NE1) were the first girl group YG produced, and we were proud of it. He felt happy knowing his noona (Sandara Park) avoided that person, so he spread the story among people in the company. Eventually, it reached the boss, and he thought I was contacting some guys, so he took away my phone. So, I had to live without a phone for a few months”, revealing the full story behind the incident.
She added, “Although 2NE1 members are older than him, G-Dragon took great care of us because we were the first junior group that debuted after Big Bang. He was that much interested in us so he even paid attention to the behind stories about us.”
