Fans of 2NE1 member and actress Sandara "Dara" Park showed their sweet side recently, cheering up the idol amid her busy schedule.
These days Dara juggles hosting duties, idol appearances and other acting and modeling commitments.
So when Dara uploaded a selfie that made her look exhausted, fans tried to lift her spirits with a barrage of encouraging messages.
"Had just come back from work," posted Dara on Instagram along with the photo above where she had her hand up to her face and had her eyes closed - a break from the usual bubbly and animated expression that fans get to see.
Online commenters expressed worry that she looks "tired" and even "sad."
"You look tired unnie please have some beauty sleep and take care of your health love you," "Cheer up Dara. Daralings and Blackjacks are always here for you! Keep smiling and keep improving yourself. You're an inspiration to us all," said devoted fans.
The outpouring of support intensified as fans reportedly saw Dara post that she misses the rest of the 2NE1 girls on LINE Play.
A fan translation from i_luv_bom reveals that Dara's nostalgia was triggered by eating crepes and traveling in Japan alone compared when she used to do the same things with the group.
2NE1 recently rocked the K-Pop world with a surprise performance at the 2015 MAMA, which also saw the return to the stage of member Bom who has been missing in action since being embroiled in a drug controversy last year.
