2NE1 member CL appeared on the cover of WILD magazine this month for the publication's Radiant Issue.

CL was interviewed for WILD at the end of last year and was reflective about her life and career.

"For me, fashion is a part of everyday life now," CL said. "I have always loved dressing up and looking like a character."

CL discussed how her early years attending small private schools in Japan and France, helped her to "connect with more people."

The 2NE1 frontwoman also discussed working on her much-anticipated US debut.

"We've been talking about this for a long time now, so for me it feels more like, 'finally we're doing it,'" CL said.

When it comes to being a role model, this K-pop star is ready for her closeup.

"I feel like Asian women are especially represented in a certain way all over the world," CL said. "I just want to say there are stronger women like me. Sending that message through music is what I do best."
