Gong Min-ji a.k.a Minzy, a former member of South Korean girl group 2NE1 and now a solo performer, is slated to perform at the opening ceremony of UAAP season 81 at the Mall of Asia Arena on Sept. 8.
“Hi, Philippines! This is Minzy. I will be seeing you soon in Manila on Sept. 8!” Minzy said in a video she uploaded via Instagram yesterday, Sept. 3. “I will be there to support the UAAP teams. I’m going to perform some songs for you guys so don’t miss it!”
Minzy did not specify what songs she will be singing at the upcoming kickoff but she played parts of her two music videos in the video. At the beginning of her message, she played a clip from her “Ninano” music video, and she ended her video with a clip from her “Superwoman” music video.
Happee Sy of PULP Live World also posted the same video on her Facebook page “Happee Hour” yesterday.
“Guess who’s rocking UAAP Season 81’s Opening Ceremony?” wrote Sy. “It’s your Superwoman Minzy and she’s got a message for everyone coming out to see her! See you there!”
South Korean dancer and entertainer Dasuri Choi posted a dance cover featuring Minzy’s song “Ninano” on her Instagram page not long after the announcement of Minzy’s performance was made.
Minzy will be performing at the upcoming UAAP season 81 opening ceremony alongside James Reid and rock band Sponge Cola.
2NE1 was composed of Minzy, CL, Bom and Dara (Sandara Park). Minzy left the girl group in 2016. In 2017, she released her debut mini-album titled “Minzy Work 01: Uno” which included the tracks “Ninano” and “Superwoman”. JB
