Minzy or Gong Min Ji was born in Seoul, South Korea on January 18th, 1994. She made her career debut as an idol artist in 2009 with YG Entertainment’s girl group – 2NE1. YG Entertainment happens to be one of the biggest artist management agencies in South Korea. They are the agency behind superhit K-Pop groups like Big Bang and BLACKPINK among many others.

Who Were 2NE1?
2NE1 was formed by YG Entertainment and was active from 2009 to 2017. Minzy was the first person to leave the group and start her career as a soloist. 2NE1 was certainly one of the biggest girl groups in K-Pop during their time. In fact, they still continue to be one of the biggest for revolutionizing K-Pop in America. Back in 2012, their Prudential Centre Tour date was announced as one of the Best Concerts of 2012 by the New York Times. 2NE1 is also one of the best-selling K-pop girl groups of all time with having sold over 66 million copies of their albums. Ever since they first debuted, 2NE1 has achieved massive success. Spin Magazine ranked 2NE1’s second mini-album – simply called 2NE1, as the sixth-best pop album 2011. Their album Crush was one of the best pop-selling albums of 2014. The four members of 2NE1 were Bom, Dara, CL, and Minzy. Bom took a temporary break from promoting with 2NE1 when she was involved in a drug scandal in 2014. It was in 2015 that 2NE1 started focussing more on their solo careers. At the very peak of their career, the band slowly started breaking apart and Minzy was the first one to leave. Though it was initially announced that 2NE1 would continue as a trio, that didn’t work out and the band eventually disbanded. Their last single, without Minzy, was the Last Goodbye released in 2017.
