In response to Park Bom's recent Instagram letter accusing her of drug use, former 2NE1 member Sandara Park denied the claims, unfollowed Bom on social media, and wished her well, escalating tensions within the group.
This development follows Park Bom's March 4, 2026, handwritten letter (posted late March 3 UTC), where she accused Sandara of being caught in a 2010 drug case and framing Bom as a scapegoat to cover it up. See prior coverage: 'Park Bom accuses Sandara Park of framing her in 2010 drug scandal'.
On March 5, Sandara directly addressed the allegations on her social media: "I have never used drugs. I wish her well." She then unfollowed Park Bom's Instagram account, publicly signaling a rift. As of that afternoon, 2NE1 members CL and Minzy still followed Bom.
Sandara's representatives had already called the claims "groundless." The response comes amid 2NE1's 2024 reunion, with Bom on hiatus since August 2025 due to health issues and recent erratic social media activity, including debunked rumors.
Fans showed divided reactions: support for Sandara's boundaries, concern for Bom's well-being, and speculation on group dynamics. This incident revives questions about past scandals' impact on the group's legacy.
