Background and release.
"Please Don't Go" was announced as a surprise single one day before its release on November 19, 2009. A source from YG Entertainment said that the single was a project that they were secretly working on for 2NE1's new album, which was originally intended to be released that month. However, the album release was postponed and no music video was produced in order to not let the staff around them know. 
Commercial performance.
Upon its release on November 20, "Please Don't Go" overtook "You and I" by fellow 2NE1 member Park Bom for the number one spot on real-time charts in South Korea. On the Melon weekly chart, the song peaked at number 2 during the week of November 22–28, 2009, with 2PM's "Heartbeat" occupying number one. The song entered at number 30 on the inaugural chart issue of the newly established Gaon Digital Chart for the week of December 27, 2009 – January 2, 2010. It placed at number 82 on the monthly Gaon Digital Chart issue for January 2010, falling from number 7 from the previous month.
