https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=OrH9nTZh6L8


Girls' Generation showed their support for Lee Dong Woo's play 'Hero in My Heart'!

Sooyoung started off by congratulating the start of the play, and then recommending the warm, feel-good story. The musical is actually produced by SM C&C, and tells the story of a blind actor who meets a girl who claims to be his daughter, even though he's had no idea.


Even if he doesn't know whether she's his real daughter or not, they become closer and closer. However, she has to leave him all of a sudden, leaving for a story of hero that seems plain, but is the greatest in a little girl's heart.

Can Girls' Generation Get the Daesang Award This Year?



Will Girls' Generation be able to get 'Daesang' this 2014?


On March 8th, Girls' Generation was guest on KBS' Guerilla Date that was filmed in Sinchon. The girls appeared with their 'Mr. Mr.' outfit in a cold weather yet looking beautiful as usual. 

During the interview, the girls had a game and Yoona was given a chance to ask the 'book of truth', she said "Can Girls' Generation get the 'Daesang' this year?" and when she opened the book, it said "No, never." causing the set to burst into laughter. Asking it one more time "Can we really never get the Daesang?" to which the book appeared with "Do not overwork yourself" making the girls laugh even more. Then Sooyoung asked "If we overwork ourselves, will we get the Daesang?" and the answer was "Of course!", the members were surprised by the answer.

It was a fun and entertaining game, but what do you think? Can the Nation's girl group take home 'Daesang' this year?

On the other hand, Girls' Generation will be busy promoting 'Mr. Mr.' on various music shows.

Girls’ Generation’s ‘Mr. Mr.’ Music Video Surpasses 9 Million Views. @SMTOWN @GirlsGeneration @Sunnyday515 @sjhsjh0628


It seems Girls’ Generation’s lucky number is indeed number ‘9’ as the music video for their comeback track ‘Mr. Mr’ surpassed 9 million views on its 9th day of release which is on March 9th, 2014.

Nation’s girl group, Girls’ Generation recently had their comeback stages through various music shows on which they performed ‘Mr. Mr’‘Wait a Minute’ and ‘Back Hug’. But before their comeback stage, a few unfortunate incidents happened including the loss of data during the editing process of their music video causing them to delay its release as well as their comeback. The tracks were also leaked a day before its official release.


Although the group had a hard time during the preparation and fans had to wait for a few more days, the music video was finally released on February 28th at 10PM, making ‘#소녀시대미스터미스터’ ’#소녀시대’ and ‘Mr.Mr’ to trend worldwide and in various countries on Twitter, SONEs have proven their power once again.

On its first day, the video already surpassed 3 million views and some tracks topped various music charts. But on its 9th day of release, themusic  video reached over 9 million views and what makes it special is it reached 9 million on March 9th which is Girls’ Generation’s leader, Taeyeon’s birthday.

Moreover, the group also won with ‘Mr. Mr.’ on Inkigayo on its March 9th airing, causing ‘#MrMr2ndwin’ to trend number 1 Worldwide on Twitter. Girls’ Generation must be happy that they have 9 members as number 9 is apparently their lucky number.

On March 6th, Girls’ Generation made its long-awaited comeback on Mnet’s “M! Countdown” with “Mr.Mr.”, winning first place. Before the show, Girls’ Generation appeared on Mnet’s “WIDE”, which gave a behind-the-scenes look into the “Mr.Mr.” mini-album jacket shoot and today’s “M! Countdown”.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrsE2v7mvGw

Girls’ Generation’s performances began with “Wait a Minute” from the “Mr.Mr.” mini album while wearing black skirts with black and white tops. Immediately afterwards, dressed in black suits, Girls’ Generation showed off the full “Mr.Mr.” choreography for the first time.

After performing, Girls’ Generation was interviewed in a waiting room and asked what the members would do if they won first place this week. Though Taeyeon mentioned that they would possibly take off their jackets and sing, the other members complained that this was too little. Taeyeon protested in return, saying, “A girl group just said they will take off their clothes and sing.” Sunny later mentioned that they would decide on an official promise for next week.

Lastly, Girls’ Generation was announced as this week’s winner for “M! Countdown” at the end of the show. Seohyun accepted the award and spoke on behalf of the group, saying, “There have been a lot of mishaps when preparing for the ‘Mr. Mr.’ album, but we want to thank all the fans for waiting such a long time and giving us unchanging love. We will reply back with better music and stages. We love you, fans! Thank you!”
Congratulations to Girls’ Generation for the group’s first win with “Mr.Mr.”!

Original article from March 6th, 2014:
Along with Sooyoung’s fantastic weekly MC segment on SBS’s “Midnight TV Entertainment”, all nine members of Girls’ Generation were also interviewed on last night’s March 5th broadcast. The show provided an exclusive interview of the ladies before their official comeback schedules begin, the first taking place tonight on Mnet’s “M! Countdown”.
The interview began with the girls arriving together to a room full of food after their own individual schedules. After getting settled in, the members all began the interview by demonstrating part of the choreography from their newest hit and comeback song, “Mr.Mr.”. The segment then cuts into behind-the-scenes footage of the music video filming itself.
The Girls’ Generation members would then go on to talk and touch upon a variety of subjects. When asked which member sleeps the most, Jessica chose Yuri. Yoona added that it was impossible to watch a movie with Yuri at night because she’s sleeping by 10:00 PM. When asked if she wakes up early as a result, Yuri responded, “No, not at all. I’ve been sleeping a lot again lately, so I wake up at around 10.” She concluded, “Sleeping is quite a happy thing.” When the girls were questioned about the guys that make Girls’ Generation members’ hearts flutter, Hyoyeon was first to answer, “For me, [that person] from what I recently watched, ‘You Who Came From the Night’? ‘You Who Came From the Stars’. (Editor’s note: “You Who Came From the Stars” is a popular drama that recently ended. Hyoyeon said the incorrect name at first.)
Moving on to the individual comeback teasers, Hyoyeon said her, Yoona, and Jessica’s video showing the three dancing in the car was “really weak”. Kim Il-Jung, the interviewer, asked, “To what degree is it normally then?” Jessica responded, “A degree you can’t even imagine?” with Sunny also adding, “We have to raise our energy before getting on stage so that our usual energy is seen. We’re warming up.” Moving onto Sunny’s video, Kim Il-Jung questioned, “Your [chopsticks] were moving really fast,” to which Sunny admitted, “We get really stressed while preparing for a comeback, and I think we relieve it with food.” Taeyeon also interjected, “We really like late-night snacks,” to which Tiffany added, “Each meal is a basis, and we constantly started eating in between them.” Sunny finished by saying, “But we’re so active that there isn’t a big change in our weight. But we realize on our own, ‘Ah, I ate too much.’”
The final part of the interview moved onto the topic of the “Mr.Mr.” comeback and the girls’ feelings about it. Kim Il-Jung observed that the secret behind the consistent love Girls’ Generation receives seems to be their friendship and then asked, “Have you really never fought, Seohyun?” She surprisingly responded, “We fight everyday,” with Jessica jokingly adding, “Seohyun hits us everyday. If we have a bruise, you can just assume it was [because of] Seohyun.” Seohyun also admitted, “I have really pointy elbows. Even if it just brushes against you, it really hurts as if I jabbed you with it. I’m sorry.” With the interview coming to an end, Kim Il-Jung said, “I’m curious as to how you feel with your upcoming comeback?” Yuri informally answered, “Nervous?” Kim Il-Jung also replied informally with “Are you nervous?” prompting Sunny to respond, “I wish he would be in charge of us and our things [because he's funny].” Sooyoung ended with, “He asked me before ‘What does SM C&C think about announcer Kim Il-Jung?’”, causing everyone to burst out in laughter. The broadcast ended with Girls’ Generation’s trademark “Right now, it’s Girls’ Generation!”.
