SNSD’s Taeyeon is naturally pretty!

On March 6th, a video entitled “Taeyeon, Pretty” was uploaded to an online portal site.The video contains Taeyeon’s pictures along with Shinhwa’s “Pretty” as the background music.

Also, the video became a hot topic because all the photos were from MBC FM4U’s ChinChin, a radio show that Taeyeon used to host.

In the pictures, Taeyeon was not wearing outfit used in performances. Rather, she wore glasses and casual clothes that made her look very natural. Also, SNSD’s members, as well as their friends, guests, and staffs, were making funny faces. In addition to this, Shinhwa’s emotional voice in the background music perfectly matched the content of the video.

Netizens commented “Taeyeon looks prettier in her natural outfit.” “Taeyeon is really pretty!” “I want to see this video on TV.” “This reminds me of her DJ-ing days.”

SNSD’s One Fine Day interview with ELLE

Is there anyone busier than idols these days? SNSD would especially be busy as they are currently performing all throughout Asia. Recently having gained the title ‘Dior’s Muse’ due to their new endorsement with the cosmetics brand, six members of the group sat down with Kang Ok Jin, editor of ELLE.

The editor commented on the members’ down-to-earth personalities, stating that, although they were stars, the members of SNSD were also bright young girls.

When the topic of ‘meal plans’ was brought up, the girls laughed off the idea. Sunny stated, “We eat whatever we want. We are very active so we have to eat often.” Hyoyeon added, ”After 10PM, YoonAalways wants to eat roast chicken. So we eat together.” Sooyoung also talked about her metabolism, explaining, ”I want to gain some weight but I can’t. I don’t gain weight easily.”

When asked about the recent holidays, the girls each stated where they visited for their break. Tiffanywent back home to San Francisco, Yuri visited Bali with her family. In fact, every member except Hyoyeon (who went to a ski resort) traveled overseas. The girls explained that, whenever they go overseas to film or perform, they can barely leave their hotels and that, although they don’t mind people’s stares, the members have gotten uncomfortable with the increasing amount of people who recognize them across the continent.

The ladies also revealed their ideal honeymoon spots, listing Greece (Sooyoung), Praha (Hyoyeon), Bora Bora (Yuri), Hawaii (Sunny), Mexico Cabo (Tiffany) as well as Milan and Firenze (Jessica).

Aside from talking about themselves, SNSD also discussed beauty. ”My skin is allergic to many things, so I get skin troubles easily. I use Dior products these days and they seem to work well,” Sunny explained. “I don’t touch my face when I get pimples,” Hyoyeon reflected.

As for the member that was most interested in make-up, the unanimous decision pointed at Taeyeon, who was supposedly both interested and skilled at using makeup products. As for fashion, Sooyoung revealed her favorite designers to be Isabel Marant and Alexander Wang, while Tiffany professed her love for D&G and Bluemarine. ”I really want to go to the New York Fashion Week. Isn’t it next week?” Sooyoung wished aloud. “If I didn’t become a singer, I would’ve worked in the fashion industry.”

Japanese magazine “Real Live” speculates on the end of SNSD

Lately, with the legal troubles surrounding KARA, the Japanese media have been looking critically at the Korean music industry, which is such a dominant force in Japan (SNSD!). The Japanese magazine “Real Live” recently ran an article entitled, “Was it just KARA? SNSD may also disband.”

The article said that because the group was too diverse–consisting of college students, high school graduates, and Americans, and seven out of nine are 21 years old–there is a lot of rivalry. “Real Live” talked about rumored controversies over Yoona lifting Tiffany’s skirt and Jessica cursing Seohyun. Then, “Real Live” pulled out the big guns–they talked about DBSK’s disbandment.

This article has attracted a lot of negative attention from kpop fans: all groups have personal difficulties, to not have any problems wouldn’t be human, and also, DBSK disbanded because of contract issues, not a rivalry within the group. What do you think?

SNSD named #2 ‘Power’ Girl Group in Japan

Right after Forbes Korea ranked SNSD first in 8th annual Korea’s Power Celebrity 40, Japan’s Nikkei Entertainment has named SNSD the number two ‘Power’ Girl Group in Japan.

To compute the list, Nikkei used 2010 average sales for singles:

1. AKB48: 684,800 copies

2. SNSD: 679,000 copies

3. KARA

4. Perfume

With KARA having legal difficulties, it’s hard to imagine any Korean girl group giving SNSD some serious competition right now. Maybe this will change with 2NE1′s debut in Japan?

少女时代！！“恐“！！解散

韩国女子团体攻日有成，随KARA成员闹分家引发关注后，日本<周刊日潮>最新一期指出少女时代成员因“学历，国籍差异”搞小圈圈，陷入解散危机。对此，少女时代所属的经济公司”SM ENTERTAINMENT”无奈表示：“恶意报道，没有对应的价值。”

9人分三派

《周刊日潮》指出，少女时代自成三派，高中毕业的泰妍，孝渊，珊妮等3人是一派，允儿，秀英，俞利，徐贤4人的“大学生派”美国出生张大的芬妮，西卡则属“ABK派”，拼写到9名成员中有7人同龄（21岁)，彼此较劲意味浓厚“。尤其是秀英及允儿等大学生对只有高中学历但手歌迷宠爱及公司厚待的队长泰妍非常嫉妒。

报道中还翻起旧账证实成员们内，指允儿曾欺负芬妮，不但掀她裙子，害她露底裤，还臭脸相对。西卡则不满徐贤档镜头，出手推她骂。还有孝渊曾对高中同校的泰妍说：”在一起的话很不自在，连饭都吃不下。“但这些当时经纪公司早已出面消毒否认。

SM娱乐冷处理

该刊并访问韩国唱片公司相关人士，表示少女时代眼睁睁看着师兄东方神起的合约分争，到最近的KARA闹分家，因此推断将有1～2名成员退团的可能性很高，直言：”离看不见9人展现美腿跳舞的日子不远了“

即使他们的经纪公司选择冷处里，但死忠粉丝们纷表不满：”日本嫌韩令人厌恶。“少女时代解散说"根本不像话”
