2NE1

I think it's ok. 6/10. The chorus is what ruins it the most. The video is nice though. I'll admit I did chuckle to myself when there was a sing that read 'plastic zone.'
 
This is fucking fantastic! It sounds much better than from the preview. Bom sounds incredible as per usual, in the second verse she sounds so different! Minzy also sounds beautiful! Dara's Middle 8 is just to die for!

Also I can't stop laughing at Bom being underneath the "Plastic Zone".

The chorus should have been shared. CL, Bom, Minzy and Dara.

The "I wanna be pretty" parts vaguely remind me of Jazmine Sullivan's Famous. I think I am alone on that though.. Regardless, the song and MV are fantastic, I was skeptical when I heard the electric guitar but they killed it. Let's hope there are no F chords in the song for Dara's sake! I am absolutely loving this mini, think I'll buy the physical version I like it so much.

I read a comment on allkpop saying it's funny how there are 9 girls in the plastic zone, I wonder... (Just kidding).

If I was to commit suicide, I'd play Ugly's chorus right before.

The song is good, but... What's with the lyrics?

Is that a good thing..? I'm not sure what to make of that sorry to say, ha ha!

The chorus aside I haven't a clue what they said so it might make sense more when translations come around.

Please make this a SNSD diss!

It would be funny but 2NE1 are above that/them*.

Yeah this song is fantastic. It's really pretty listening to it a few times, the chorus is genuinely lovely and touching.

That would be kinda ridiculous since no one in k-pop is more mangled by plastic surgery than Bom. Not that Minzy would allow a diss of her best friends anyway, though.

Song sounds pretty good, but I'm not sure about the whole rock-leaning motivational vibe. On the flipside that's certainly not something that's overdone in k-pop. Enjoyed the verses. Not bad, let's see how it grows.

Yeah, Bom's had more plastic surgery than the whole of SNSD put together.

It's good in a depressing way. Good thing for a song, I guess. Not so good for a human.
 
Teaser made worried, but I adore this song. It's glorious. MB is beautiful. One thing that bugs my are lyrics, there's no " If I'm ugly then so are you". It's so hopless.
 
I really like the verses and Dara's middle 8. Not loving the chorus, I'll probably grow to like it though. And as usual, a really good video but I doubt having 9 girls under the plastic zone was a subtle diss towards SNSD since Minzy's good friends with a few of them. It was just a coincidence I guess.
 
Don't like the song. Also find it a bit silly that they are talking about being Ugly when they are caked in make up. If 2NE1 are Ugly then god knows what the average person must be! Oh well.
