CL expressed hope that fans will continue to wait a bit longer and that they will enjoy the fruits of her labor.
CL has been busy these past months working on her music. She recently released two tracks -- HWA and FIVE STAR.
In a livestreamed press conference, she said that HWA represents her new beginning as CL, the solo artist, Yonhap reported.
She also opened up about her 10-month hiatus after she released In The Name of Love last year as an independent artist.
CL admitted that she used the time to learn about new things and grow as an artist. She also talked about how different it was to promote her own, as compared to working together as a team with her 2NE1 co-members.
She confessed that fill the roles of all four members was not an easy task. Even though she is trying her best, she admitted that she has not yet mastered it.
However, she remains excited to explore her new form of expression through her music.
CL recently performed HWA on The Late Late Show with James Corden and shared how excited she was about the interest that the world was taking at Kpop and Korean culture as a whole. She vowed to represent her roots in the best way possible.
