2NE1 is experiencing a wave of activity ahead of their 17th anniversary, with former members Park Bom and CL engaging in new musical projects, including Bom's AI-assisted track 'Heaven' and Dara's upcoming rock single 'REPRISM'. Reunion moments and nostalgic interactions with BIGBANG members have sparked fan excitement, though tensions emerged when Daesung apologized to Minzy for past remarks, and Sandara Park's Instagram unfollow of CL raised questions among followers.
