[EYECANDY] 2NE1 reveals photos from “Ugly” MV set!

Photos of 2NE1 on the set of their upcoming “Ugly” music video have been revealed.

The girls are looking as fierce as they tackle an eclectic street-punk look. Sandara Park in particular grabs attention as she runs against her usual bright and bubbly image with an outfit that’s reminiscent of 1TYM’s gangster-style. She even has tattoo sleeves on both of her arms!

The rest of the members’ outfits are not as shockingly different from they’ve showcased in the past. Bom rocks a very loud print that really draws more focus on her innocent charm, while Minzy got rid of her jet black hair for a caramel hue. Meanwhile, leader CL still retains her blonde locks, with blue tips added.

The music video for “Ugly” is scheduled to drop later on this week!
