Tree Planet Korea has revealed photos of the '2NE1 Forest' in South Sudan, Africa. Last summer, fans of 2NE1 donated enough trees to create a '2NE1 Forest' in honor of the group's 'New Evolution Seoul' concert.
Blackjacks from all around the world donated 1,210 mango trees to the village of Tonj through Tree Planet Korea's 'Star Forest Project'. Fans originally planned to donate rice wreaths, but after YG Entertainment's suggestion to donate mangoes, they went with this project instead.
2NE1 is the first K-pop idol group to have a forest of this kind named after them, while Shinhwa is the second with a forest in Seoul.
The 'Star Forest Project' tweeted:
