How Do You Say “Go Away” in Japanese?

Acchi ike?

2NE1‘s Japanese debut has been a hot topic for some time and now, the ball is rolling. First on a long schedule of activities for the girls is the recently released ringtone for the Japanese version of “Go Away.”

The quality isn’t that great and the clip is not that long, but from what I can hear the pronunciation is mediocre, albeit better than some KPOP groups debuting in Japan, and the voices sound strained. Though my expectations were not fulfilled, that does not mean I’m any less curious as to what the rest of the song will sound like, especially CL rapping in Japanese.

Do you think she can be just as fierce as Miryo in the Brown Eyed Girls’ “Abracadabra“?

    Is CL going to rap in Japanese? Was that confirmed? I know she can speak the language pretty well, but there’s still a strong possibility that YGE/Avex would let her rap in English for a while. But I do hope that she raps in Japanese because that would be awesome.

    It’s hard judging the song because it’s just too hazy, so for now all I can say is…I don’t like Bom’s voice so much here. I’d rather wait for the official release. Other than that, I’m excited for 2ne1 entering Japan! They might not be as big as KARA but I’d like to see how things will go. LOL their promo pic itself is enough to make me look forward.

    I doubt CL will rap in japanese because rapping in japanese is harder then let’s say in korean or english(the rhytm and flow is so different) and CL went to a international school in Japan so she might not even speak japanese, at the Mtv Japan awards she only spoke english when interviewed in japanese(and in other promo bits she speaks korean or english).
    The song sounds mediocre and I think it’s a bit odd how they were invited to MS without any work in Japan.

    I hope this isn’t a clip of the final version…I wish 2ne1 would of went with ‘I don’t care’ for the first single, at least it has a cute dance. Go away is to western for japan. As much as I love 2ne1, I still don’t think they’ll make it in japan. Japan doesn’t go for the ‘tough girl’ look, it’s that simple. I stillll wished they would of skipped japanese promotion and went on to their english album, or a new korean album.
