Despite the shocking revelation, CL says she has since moved on and is focusing on her burgeoning solo career. “Now I have a lot of freedom and control over, at least, what I choose to do,” she said. “So, it’s a very exciting chapter for me.”

In a previous interview with Harper’s BazaarCL had also recalled how 2NE1’s image had been “very organic” from their beiginning, explaining how the group had defined their signature style and image despite being under a major label at the time.

“There were very few people in the companies,” she explained. “It would be me and my creative director, and we were all friends, and we were just in the studio coming up with what we liked and finding references.”
