Girls’s Generation had always been famous for wearing high heels on stage, but this time the girls will be taking off their high heels in order to show off a more powerful performance for “I Got A Boy”.
The girls have already performed the song for their MBC comeback special, which was filmed on the 23rd, and everyone who attended the performance commented that the performance for the song is the most powerful for the group thus far.
SM Entertainment also emphasized, “It is a different song compared to the basic style that Girls’ Generation usually has shown. It’s a song that feels like a new challenge, and the song contains many musical styles and tempo changes. The addicting melody in the chorus is very memorable.”
Some of the powerful choreography will be hinted at in the dance version teaser that will be released on the 28th KST.
On December 28th, Psy and Girls’ Generation ranked in the upper tier in a survey for “The Most Outstanding Singer of the Year” conducted by Gallup Korea on 4,157 participants from the ages 13 to 59.
The surveys were conducted using the interview method during different periods of the year, namely from May 2nd to 16th, September 12th to 26th and November 15th to 30th.
It was no surprise that Psy came in first place (24.4%) this year with his hugely successful “Gangnam Style”. In 2012, Girls’ Generation (with a total votes of 19.8%), however, had little promotions as a group in Korea after “The Boys” in the previous year but instead, they had subunit activities (TaeTiSeo with “Twinkle”) and individual activities. Big Bang came in third with 9.5% followed by IU (6.9%) and Jang Yoon Jung (6.6%).
Psy’s “Gangnam Style” was also chosen as “The Best Song of the Year” followed by SISTAR’s “Alone” and Busker Busker’s “Cherry Blossom Ending” and TaeTiSeo’s “Twinkle”.
Meanwhile, Busker Busker and Ailee were voted to be the “Best Newcomers of the Year”.
The countdown to Girls’ Generation‘s 4th album ‘I Got a Boy’ continues! After Taeyeon, Yuri, Sunny, Tiffany, Seohyun and Yoona gave their own special video messages, member Hyoyeon has now released her comeback video message.
In the video, Hyoyeon says that she misses fans and expresses her feelings by demonstrating two key points of the choreography for “I Got A Boy”. She also says, “I’m really curious and am looking forward to what you all will call these dance moves.”
Girls’ Generation‘s eldest members looked at their fortunes for 2013.
Because 2013 will be the Year of the Snake (Water Snake) according to the Chinese Zodiac, SBS‘ ‘One Night of TV Entertainment‘ revealed the fortunes of the stars born in previous Years of the Snake.
Tiffany was told that she would get a request to become the CEO of a
business. However, the fortune said that she should not start a new line
of business any time soon and wait a bit.
Jessica was told that she would date someone next year, but her
partner may be living out of the country. At this, Sooyoung said, “Daniel Henney“,
mentioning Jessica’s ideal type. When Jessica heard Sooyoung’s answer
she agreed right away which brought much laughter to the audience.
Yuri was told that there was a high chance that she would become the
female lead of a drama. At this, Yuri blew a kiss to the drama PD and
did aegyo for him to see.
On December 26th, Girls’ Generation made a special appearance on SBS’s
“Midnight TV Entertainment”, a show hosted by Sooyoung and YB’s Yoon
Dohyun. In their short but very funny segment, the members of Girls’
Generation were told their fortunes by Sooyoung, who revealed what
Jessica, Tiffany, and Yuri could expect next year.
Sooyoung began by asking which of the members were born in the year of
the Snake, which fell on 1989, and said, “The fortune for the snake
zodiac in 2013 is in my hand.” Taeyeon, Jessica, Sunny, Tiffany,
Hyoyeon, and Yuri, all born in 1989, raised their hands.
Sooyoung then revealed Tiffany’s fortune, saying that Tiffany would be
offered a representative position in business. However, she continued,
“Rather than starting something new, it would be better to wait it out a
little longer.”
Jessica was told, “You will have luck in dating. Your partner could be
overseas.” Sooyoung also added, “Is it by any chance, Daniel Henney?”
Jessica quickly responded, “Yes~.”
Finally, Sooyoung revealed to Yuri, “You will have good energy, and energy for a drama is especially great. There is a high possibility of you playing the main role.”
