A/N: Well, I'm kinda happy because 2ne1 is under YG Ent. In YG they all seem more like family and they call themselfs like that. In SM Ent. they call themselfs SM Town, and I find it a bit cold. I live with 700 000 people in my town, so does that makes us very connected? Sure not. I'm not bashing, but still. YG is my favorite label company, even though SHINee and SNSD are one of my favorite kpop groups.
