On July 9, Park Bom took to Instagram to share several screenshots from her performance at WATERBOMB Seoul 2025, captioned “Park Bom in WATERBOMB (Seoul)”.
The shared images were taken from a fan’s video, capturing Park Bom on stage in a striking leopard print bikini paired with a white halter-neck cover-up. Despite being drenched in water, with most of her makeup washed off, Park Bom’s doll-like visuals stood out, drawing widespread admiration.
What especially moved fans was Park Bom’s thoughtful gesture of including subtitles from the video in which a fan exclaimed, “You’re so beautiful, unnie.” By reposting these words, Park Bom showed appreciation for her fans’ unwavering support.
This comes amid recent discussions on social media where Park Bom was accused of overusing beauty filters in her uploads. She addressed the controversy, clarifying that she had not applied any filters, though the situation sparked mixed reactions among fans.
Looking ahead, 2NE1 is set to perform at WATERBOMB Busan on July 26, and at WATERBOMB Bali in September. Additionally, the iconic girl group will reunite as a full group for a halftime performance during the 2025 Coupang Play Series match between Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United, taking place at Seoul World Cup Stadium on August 3.
