Dara Fan Rant

Hul. I always feel that we are singled out. 

"I hate Dara fans. They are so annoying."

Why are they so annoyed about us?

Apparently they feel that the other members especially CL and Minzy are underrated and Dara is overrated. OVERRATED? Dara has been dubbed as the weakest link even before debut! How could she be overrated when she never gets credited for being talented? From the first day she was ranked with Yoona, Sohee, Kara, among others - prettiest but least talented members in their group. In their eyes she was simply the face, the mascot of 2NE1. Grrr!

They hate her for getting all the attention, that's what. They hate her for being pretty.

Is that a crime? She happens to be a lot more beautiful than even those considered pretty girls. So of course people are drawn to her. People worship her for it. She inspires her fanboys to write poems and sing songs about her. Some of them are athletes who bring glory to Korea. A lot of them simply look at her poster and find comfort in going through their mandatory military service. So what, people can worship talent, but can't with beauty? They are both God-given, what makes one better than the other. It's not like Dara, as a 2NE1 member, just sat and smiled while the others sang and danced. She worked just as hard, if not more, than the other girls. And to be clear, I'm not saying Dara doesn't have the talent but if people only did love her for her beauty, then why can't they just let them be? 

"It's against YG's policy."

Umm, what is YG's policy again? Is it to not hire pretty people? Wow, they are so smart. All YG is about is believing in people's talent without the need to be pretty by Korea's standard. In the first place, who are you to say it is against this belief when it was YG himself who chose Dara to be a member of 2NE1 when he could've easily discouraged her to be a singer and try acting instead, like he did with Goo Hye Sun, or when he chose CL over Bom to be the leader of 2NE1, knowing fully well that CL is the most capable and responsible among the four? Dara is against YG's policy of talent over beauty? Isn't she not the one acting cute while performing? Isn't she not the one wearing those skimpy short outfits? Isn't she not the one who is always weaing heavy make-up? Isn't she not the one who is always criticized for having plastic surgery? 

Dara is naturally pretty. Make no mistake about that. And when we say that it doesn't mean that we don't find others pretty in our eyes. I, for one, find CL very charismatic and charming, and very pretty, even without make-up. I find Minzy cute and gorgeous. Bom, to be honest, she creeps me out now. But she was so cute and pretty back in 2009 and earlier. If I could tell her one thing, it's to stop whatever it is she's doing to her face. Just stop before it's too late. And to her fans, please don't even try to deny it coz it just ends up being ridiculous and funny everytime u reason out that it's because of her lymph nodes, or whether or not the swelling is before or after the surgery to correct the lymph nodes problem. Nobody gets a surgery to correct a medical condition and ends up having double eyelids, a prominent nose, and sharper jaw. Yes, it is her face and life, and if it makes her happy then let her be, and just accept it. And don't hate on Dara for being naturally pretty! 

And lastly Dara is talented. She doesn't have Bom, CL, and Minzy's powerful voice, that is true, but her voice is not weak (can u even sing her lines in In The Club without yelling and losing your breathing after? Psshh!). Rather, it is soft and soothing, and the only reason she doesn't get that many lines is because her voice is not very suited for YG's kind of songs, esp RnB. It really is more for pop. Thankfully, her voice found its way into UGLY's bridge that people, even non 2NE1 fans, acknowledge that this girl can sing. She can also dance, rap, and act, and OMG THIS GIRL IS TALENTED. LOL.

Please, just stop singling us out. We don't call you out when you praise CL, Bom, or Minzy, as long as you don't raise them up by putting Dara down. Love them freely as u wish, and let us do the same.
