The vocalist born in 1984 aspires to become a singer, something that always urges in her heart. But despite having artistic influences from her sister who is a cellist, it was not enough to break Park Bom's parents' beliefs about a daughter who would devote her youth to education instead of art.

However, under the encouragement of her aunt and her love for art, Park Bom secretly transferred to Berklee College of Music to pursue her burning dream. The journey of touching her dream was written by her with an extraordinary bravery.

After a long time of cultivating skills, Park Bom decided to return to Korea to officially pursue a music career in her hometown, always bustling with Kpop culture. The Seoul vocalist auditioned many times with the desire to join YG Entertainment, a big man in the entertainment industry. With unremitting efforts and impressed by the unique voice color, Park Bom officially became a trainee after three years of persistently auditioning.

As a "piece" of the legendary group 2NE1, Park Bom used to have a huge fan base. The audience at that time not only loved her voice, but also fell in love with the female singer's seductive beauty. It's not CL but Park Bom who is the 2NE1 member who was held the most by "big man" YG during the group's golden age.

In 2006, Park Bom featured in the first two songs of his senior, Big Bang, and the vocalist had the opportunity to collaborate with Lexy for the catchy song Baby Boy.

The YG girl also appeared attractively alongside big names like Lee Hyori, G-Dragon and Gummy in the promotional MV for Samsung Anycall mobile phones.

In 2009, Park Bom officially debuted as a member of 2NE1. She takes on the role of the main vocalist, starting a new journey with members CL, Dara and Minzy.

Right from their debut, 2NE1 has made a strong impression on the public with their very new visual style. Stylish and trendy girls bring an explosive energy of charm, far beyond the soft, sweet girl group that is familiar in K-pop.

The newly debuted monster rookie had a cult collaboration with senior Big Bang with the song "Lollipop". After the cooperation project, 2NE1 officially joined the Kpop fire pan, the girls had a very hot welcome with the song "Fire" on the stage of SBS.

Besides the group's glory, Park Bom still keeps her own mark on her career journey. With her sweet voice, she received public sympathy with her first solo song, "You and I".

The song achieved many great achievements. Possessing a distinctive and attractive voice color, Park Bom has received many invitations to collaborate on vocals from artists.

At the end of 2010, that familiar voice was heard in the song "Oh Yeah" by the senior of the same company, GD & TOP. The perfect combination has helped the song sweep many prestigious charts. A year later, she also released her second solo song, Don't Cry and received a rain of achievements.

Having the charm to contribute, Park Bom continuously appeared in many popular music products from colleagues in the same company. It can be said that Park Bom's music diary page has been tinged with brilliant pink during the years of accompanying 2NE1. They became prominent names in Kpop, became legends in the hearts of the audience.

Park Bom has a beautiful voice color, fans always love the girl who is somewhat quiet but still makes a lot of effort on the journey of self-improvement.

Being bullied online

Since the end of 2011, Park Bom has been constantly entangled with rumors of plastic surgery because her face looks increasingly stiff and unnatural. When she first debuted, she used to be one of the most beautiful beauties in YG, but only a few years later, the singer's face was suddenly associated with a series of phrases such as "cutlery disaster", "stiff as a statue". wax"... Although Park Bom repeatedly denied the rumors of cutlery, many people still refused to believe her. They think that the fact that the female singer touched her face is hard to deny. What is condemned here is that many netizens have used cynical words to describe Park Bom's face such as "aesthetic monster", "plastic monster", etc.

In 2014, on the show "2NE1TV", Park Bom said that she had swollen lymph nodes. It is this disease that is the cause of swelling and deformation on the female singer's face, not complications from plastic surgery.

Silence when the light goes out

Tragedy to Park Bom has not stopped there! In September 2014, information about Park Bom mistakenly buying banned drugs into Korea created an earthquake that exploded public opinion.

Accordingly, Park Bom was prosecuted for receiving eighty Amphetamines pills from the US into Korea by post in 2010. Having grown up in the US, she naively did not know that it was the drug used. for the treatment of some psychological disorders but banned from circulation in the Republic of Korea.

The storm of information is constantly being blown up in the discussion of public opinion, the Korean public is known to be extremely harsh with the artist world and will be more serious when private life problems related to the law. Although the company has officially spoken out, with the pressure of public opinion and the harshness of the media crisis, Park Bom had to suffer a great attack and then came to the decision to suspend all activities. From the peak of fame falling to the bottom of the abyss, fans sympathize with Park Bom and 2NE1.

After a long hiatus, at the end of November 2016, YG made an announcement that broke fans' hearts. 2NE1 officially disbanded after seven years working together. YG's attitude towards Park Bom made many fans sad. According to a former YG employee, after being entangled in controversy, Park Bom was considered a failure by the company. They "push" the female singer to YG's subsidiary The Black Label before forcing her to leave. Park Bom finally left the roof of YG - where many beautiful memories are kept for the female singer - in a way that makes fans' hearts flutter.

At this time, the public continued to point the ax towards Park Bom, they blamed her for destroying the group's musical dreams despite the singer's mental state getting worse and worse.

The ruthlessness of public opinion instantly executed the death sentence for the ambitious Seoul girl's musical dream, extinguishing the radiant aura that 2NE1 had built together over the past seven years.

Although Park Bom did not really use banned substances as the media tried to exaggerate, the dark corner of Korean showbiz covered and swallowed her efforts. The most worrying thing at that time was the singer's psychological health after the incident in her private life.

Park Bom did not even dare to go out to buy clothes for 5 years because she was afraid of disparaging eyes, sarcastic words, and bad gossip about herself. The singer painfully admitted that it was being bullied on social networks that made her discouraged, wanting to give up all her career. Fortunately, Park Bom still has friends, relatives and a community of fans by her side to encourage and share. They accompany and lift her from the darkness of the past.

As an ambitious doll with a musical dream, Park Bom made fans feel sorry for the career shock she had to shoulder. In the blink of an eye, a talented vocalist who was at the peak of his fame suddenly fell into a nightmare of public opinion

Park Bom and her bravery rekindled the glory

Refusing to accept a moment of glory and then disappearing, coming out of the darkness, Park Bom longs to find the light that has gone out. In 2019, Park Bom officially signed a contract with D-Nation Entertainment and plans to release the mini-album "Spring", marking her return after a long absence from the track. Fans can't hide their excitement and joy for the vocalist.

The title song "Spring" with the special voice of Sandara Park, made fans emotional when they saw the two talented girls back together.

"Spring" has a special meaning as it is the first solo song after eight years of freezing all activities of Bom. A spectacular comeback when her song "Spring" defeated even the "digital monster" Epik High to take the top title of iChart, the largest music chart aggregator in Korea.

Not only that, the three songs on the mini-album were successful in turn when "landing" at high positions on Billboard's World Digital Song Sales chart. With the success of Spring, she continued to release an album titled Re: Blue Rose. With the success that Spring and Re:Blue Rose brought, Park Bom gradually won the hearts of the audience and music lovers. Now, the singer has realized that by her side is always the companion of millions of spectators. And fans will definitely see a Park Bom that gets stronger and stronger over time!
