^ Sica & Fany's English are amazing. i think Seohyun speaks it pretty well too, dunno abt the rest~

anyway i love the FNS performances Gee was so cute

Perfection. :heart

Honestly cannot wrap my head around how anyone can think these girls' aren't talented. Seriously, are they deaf and blind?

Seo speaking in English was AMAZING! She sounded really good! Great performances too by the way. Tae sounded a bit too quiet at the beginning of Genie but by the end she was belting like a pro :D

^ikr.. seo sounded great with her English. I wonder if she has been practicing her English skills a lot.

Tiffany and Jessica's first language is English :yes

Good-bye stage @ Music Core (Dec 4th):



Btw yesterday was Dec 5th in Korea... happy belated birthday Yuri sexiest member in SNSD!

Wrapping up promo already? The Korean music industry really takes some getting used to. XD

Couldn't take my eyes off of Soo Young. :heart Happy B-day, Yuri!

Distractingly blonde hair was distracting. O___O

^ Yeah, Korea's music industry is totally crazy xD They barely start advertising then have the "Goodbye stage" lol

Someone totally needs to write an "Idiot's Guide to Kpop" for me!!! Any offers?

I had a good lol at the tags on the thread today xD "lol u would" and "yes i would"? :yes

lol yeah, I love the tags for this thread xD

fuuuu I want the Japanese HOOT covers already... I wonder if they're going to recycle shots or take new ones like with the singles?

^I wonder that too.. because they said they'll just include the same photo book the Korean hoot album had.. so hmm..

Oh man I wish someone would make a big blog post like that xDD I remember first getting into K-Pop and I was like "...Why are they re-releasing this with only two new songs?" or "This single has 10 tracks that are original, but this mini-album has 4 tracks that are original. Wat."

ah~ too bad the Hoot promo already finished T__T
i really wish the girl could win another mutizen...so it'll make 9 mutizens!
sighh~~
are they gonna promote Hoot in Japan?

Ok when I get some free time off school I'm totally making a big ass thread as a kpop guide :laugh .. I got really confused when I first got into kpop too, the whole mini-album/repackage/music shows/comeback system was seriously confusing .. And announcing a FULL ALBUM one week before the release date gave me a heart attack the first time it happened .. But it's fun once you understand the basics of it :yes

i just opened my issue of Billboard Magazine that just came today to find a giant picture of SNSD staring at me. #unexpected (it mentions that in Japan, "Genie" has sold 98,000 copies while "Gee" has sold 80,000)

Those numbers are a LOT less than what Oricon is reporting, but these numbers are according to the label, so I guess Oricon really might be inflating numbers....

I'm sad about the hoot promo ending too :( it's true we did get a lot of performances, but a lot weren't complete without Tiffany

OH **** BIG NEWS?
ACCORDING TO THE NEW UNITED STATES BILLBOARD ARTICLE, GIRLS' GENERATION WILL LIKELY TARGET EUROPE NEXT YEAR AFTER PROMOTIONS OF THEIR JAPANESE LANGUAGE ALBUM HAS WRAPPED UP

^oh yeah i read about that, probably never gonna happen lol

^^ yup, it was already posted lol
but it's not confirmed by SM, so it's still a rumor.

MMmm if it's in Billboard it's pretty much confirmed. Probably the single most reliable source aside from the artist/label themselves.

japanese language album finally what are they waiting for T_____T I need it NAO

^^we should probably wait till SM says something about it, cuz you never know in kpop
