2NE1 Wecome Back Manila Concert Recap

2NE1 is back in their 2nd home! 

Last November 16 and 17, the iconic K-Pop girl group, 2NE1 made an epic return to Manila with their 2024 Welcome Back Tour! This two-night concert marked their first reunion tour as a group since disbanding in 2016 and their first visit to the Philippines in 10 years since their "All or Nothing" tour in 2014. 

The MOA Arena was packed with thousand of Blackjacks who came together to celebrate and witness this unforgettable moment. 2NE1 performed their timeless hits including 'Come Back Home,' 'Fire,' 'I Am The Best,' 'Lonely,' and 'Ugly' bringing the house down with every stage. 

While the concert was a joyful reunion, there was a moment on the second night when Park Bom has to leave mid-performance due to sudden health issues. Fans had already noticed her absence from some performances on the first night, and YG later released a statement addressing her condition. Despite Bom unable to finish the concert, her effort to show up, touched everyone. 

The show carried on with incredible energy. During encore, the group surprised the fans with a special performance of 'In or Out.' Dara and Minzy even joined in on the 'Pantropiko' dance challenge! But, what made PH Blackjacks even more ecstatic was CL's announcement and confirmation that 2NE1 will be returning to Manila for a Day 3 of their "Welcome Back" concert—though the date is still a surprise! 

It was truly a night to remember, huge thanks to 2NE1 for an amazing show and to Bom for her strength and dedication for giving her best during the perfomance despite her health issue. We're all sending her our love and wishing for a speedy recovery. PH Blackjack will be waiting for their return. 💕
