The second is "K-beauty and K-fashion popularity that cause synergy with K-pop". "When I met foreign fans, I noticed that there was a lot of interest in Korean beauty and fashion besides music," said Sandara Park. "Koreans have excellent hair styling and makeup skills. I think that the comprehensive art created with all of that is the love of many people because it is KPOP. " 

As for the 2NE1 days when I watched the juniors under the name of "Han Ryu Jo" in the middle of KPOP's "Stage K" program, the overseas market was not that big. 

Sandara Park said, "I made my debut in 2009. It was during the time when many seniors started to work in Japan and gradually informed KPOP that the schedule was almost Korea-oriented, but from now on, the overseas schedule was greatly increased and I was able to realize the popularity of KPOP. But nowadays they seem to be creating songs that are easy for them to follow and understand in the beginning for overseas fans. "
