[The Financial News] Park Bom of 2NE1 said she wants the allegations involving Sandara Park's alleged drug use to be treated as if they had never happened.
On the 17th, Park Bom posted a photo of a long handwritten letter on her social networking service, saying, "I'm writing this as if it's really the last time."
In the post, Park Bom reflected on her journey from studying in the United States to passing YG Entertainment Inc.'s audition and debuting with 2NE1. She also expressed pride in the members.
She first praised leader CL as "the god of performance" and showed affection for the youngest member, Minzy, calling her a "proud dance goddess."
In particular, she described Sandara Park, whom she had previously accused over drug allegations, as "the princess of the Philippines and the brain of the team." She added, "Her pretty voice creates great synergy when she sings with me, the main vocalist."
Park Bom wrote, "The truth is, I wanted the drug story to be treated as if it never happened," adding, "It was too precious because it was a miracle that the four of us met."
She continued, "There is a big age gap, and because this is such an unbelievable thing, I am writing this letter. I am so grateful and I love you all for raising us with such care."
Earlier, in March, Park Bom sparked controversy after mentioning her past Adderall import case on social networking service and claiming that she had been made a scapegoat to cover up Sandara Park's drug issue at the time.
Sandara Park immediately denied the claim, saying, "I have never used drugs," and took a hard line by unfollowing Park Bom's account.
Park Bom has been fully suspending her activities since August last year for health reasons, following medical advice. During that time, she drew concern from fans by making unstable moves, including exposing unverified claims through social networking service.※ If you are struggling with depression or other difficult issues that are hard to talk about, or if a family member or acquaintance around you is going through similar difficulties, you can receive 24-hour counseling from experts at the Suicide Prevention Hotline 109.gaa1003@fnnews.com Ahn Ga-eul Reporter
