CL: "I've always worn swimming suit-like outfits on other stages and even in the 'The Baddest Female' music video. I don't feel pressured by exposing skin; I'll wear it as long as it looks cool or it's pretty."

1. [+332, -19] You might not feel pressured by it but we do ㅠㅠㅠ

2. [+301, -20] Can you please take into consideration the people that have to watch you... CL...

3. [+272, -122] ㅜㅜ The outfit makes her look like she'd smell ㅜㅜ

4. [+62, -10] It doesn't look cool at all. You have to consider the eyes of the people that have to watch you. With your logic, you're basically justifying even the men that go around flashing people wearing nothing but trench coats since obviously they think that's cool too.

5. [+48, -5] I don't know... It's kind of hard to describe how I felt seeing her in that outfit... It wasn't sexual but just kind of... dirty? Left a bad taste in your mouth. She looked less sexy than even our company's cafeteria lady who usually wears a knee-length skirt with a white coat... CL taught me that exposing skin has nothing to do with sexiness basically.

6. [+36, -4] It's fine if she likes those types of outfits... just wear it alone at home. I don't like it when Hyuna or CL wear things like this on TV. We always used to say that there will come a day girl groups perform in panties, who actually thought the day would actually come this fast ㅋ

7. [+32, -1] Since when did CL become such a tryhard? She wore something similar to this in 2009 but the reactions on Nate were completely different from now. Back then, everyone praised 2NE1 for pulling off an amazing stage as rookies and focused on their performance rather than their outfits. Singers are supposed to improve with time but CL is going backwards. Her rap skills are getting worse, she disses her own members in interviews, and she's basically become a tryhard. And why doesn't she write her own lyrics? She co-wrote this song with Teddy as well... I get that composing is hard so I'll give her a pass on that but how could she not have the skills to write her own raps when she's already 4 years into her career? How can a rapper perform a rap written by someone else on stage? How... How did CL end up like this? I don't know what YG was thinking letting CL go solo like this. It's done nothing for her or 2NE1's image. If YG has any brains at all, they'd cut promotions for her solo immediately and prepare the comebacks of the other artists that were delayed because of 2NE1.

8. [+19, -2] Man, I wouldn't even care if her song was decent but even that can't save her.
