They're ladies but they stay Girls' Generation in their 17th thread!

True, but there's a difference between trying something new, and just completely copying another groups style. I mean, f(x) anyone? Or am I the only one seeing this. Some things you just don't do. This isn't "inspired" by, it's just a complete copy.

[Utena]

First, it's not like they choose the style themselves. Plus, how can you already judge based on 20sec? I see no f(x), styles are similar, yes, but it's not like f(x) invented funky colored hip-pop outfits anyways..
Gosh.. Whenever there's something new with these girls, there will always be people complaining and saying blabla they copied X.. sooo boring. NOTHING is original nowadays, you should know this by now. The fact is that it's something new, FOR THEM.

[ExodusUK]

They're both from the same company, if someone from the company says "you're doing this, wearing this, etc" it's not exactly copying fx style because it's all from the same creator/producer/etc.

And there will always be someone defending every little thing they do. Girls Gen r my ALL TIME fav band, but im not gonna kiss the ground they walk on. I personally, in my own opinion, feel that this is just a bad move. My opinion, thats all. Have your own, no big deal, but I personally am not liking this direction whether its temp or whatnot.

[Kaiouforever]

Can we just stop and admire how flawless Hyoyeon looks in the teaser photo?

Really looking forward to their new Korean album - their Japanese one was great. They are hard at work all the time!

[SKYia]

I wouldn't mind this style if not for the fact that my all time fave Sunny looks horrible in those hair. Blonde was sexy but she used it for too long, I can agree with this, but she's not looking good like this :|

I'm not defending them, it was more of a general statement, and as a bonus my very own opinion on the matter. Take it or leave it, I don't really care. The only problem I had with your statement is that you made -useless- 'comparaisons' instead of stating your opinion. You can perfectly say you don't like the concept, I can understand, but that's not what you did before, hence my reaction You've critized something the girls may not be responsible for, saying they copied? Well, who doesn't nowadays, that's my point. Moreover, I didn't mean to 'judge' your tastes, on the contrary, I'm all for differences of opinions.

Anyways, looking foward to the album, feels like ages since The Boys <3

[koumori]

Looking forward to their new album~ I was brainwashed into liking them, and just fell in love with their two Japanese albums. So, this will be the first Korean release I'll hear (ironically), and I'm excited!

I liked the teaser, the girls all looked so good. It's nice that they've switched up their style to keep things interesting, I wonder if it's just for that song or..

I don't know about 'complete copy' but the f(x) element is very very obvious. There were a million ways to do these hiphop outfits but they chose the most convenient one by raiding f(x)'s closets. And Sunny's hair is tragic; pink or blue.
Other than that I really want to see the full Pv!

Yes, lets. *moment of pause*

She looks really happy and gorgeous - I really think that she's blossomed from her time on DwtS and IY2 - she seems to have more confidence in herself which is great - I'm hoping she gets a solo section like ITNW~~~

It seems to look less bad in the video, at least for me, I think her stylists just went crazy overboard since The Boys, though....that wig in FLOWER POWER was pretty bad xD

One day she'll have long luscious locks again, right?

Start with Girls Go to School, their documentary leading up to their debut, it's amazing



Then be sure to check out Girls' Generation Romantic Fantasy when it comes out in the next couple of days. It's basically their comeback special stage - has a lot of solo stages as well as old and new performances.




Gotta have a laugh at people saying stuff like "finally Yoona is in the center after all this time!" Uuh, she was the focus in teasers for The Boys, she got the centre spot in the closing pose, she gets the most screentime after Taeyeon. Even TaeYeon only leads by ~10 seconds

I mean, her position as visual member means she's in the centre or focus pretty much all the time xD I want Sooyoung and Hyoyeon in the centre for a whole MV lol

[CoriKaru]

I will say that Yoona is doing the same thing she always does. Well she has been good abkut since "The Boys" where it was painfully obvious, but where everyone is looking cool and secure in the last shot, she is still forever looking like the Cool-Aid man with that, "I'm too happy to be here want some cheese smile."

I was going to say maybe practice in front of a mirror, but I think her mouth is doing exactly what she wants it to do so SM just needs to reign that in.

[adantatu2]

The concept is similar because SM is using the same concepts with different artists.
And poor Sunny and Hyoyeon, their hair is horrible.

[CoriKaru]

Hyoyeon's hair is on epic point.

Sunny's hair is not even hair anymore.

[emi♡]

I think hyoyeon looks amazing, and that chica never looks amazing.


I almost wish I knew enough about f(x) to talk about their closet, but I really don't care about them.

Except that their name pisses me off to NO END because it shouldn't be "fx" it should be "f of x".

Yeah. I'm a math nerd.

[Kouyou]

I love Sunny and Hyoyeon's hair! They look awesome! I'm really looking forward to this comeback. I'll be buying the Hyoyeon version of the album, obvs.

[terra]

I thought SM kinda give the same treatment to SuJu during Mr Simple teaser photos and album pics although th MV doesn't really show that f(x) kind of style like their teaser. I remember those were super colorful and random.

And yea I agree on Sunny's hair which is hardly a hair anymore :/

[AyUmIXx]

i love their cute hip hop outfits, with so many colors, love it.
i can't wait for the full MV to show! and ther comeback stages.
and I love the concept, it's very different from what they did previously.
it's true that it's kinda f(x)-ish but GG's more colorful than theirs..and i read somewhere that their concept reminds them of Hyuna's Ice Cream too.

[Utena]

lol boomerang again.. Album tracks sound okay, some of them might even be better than the title song lol

[pommy48]

I really wish...Tiffany would stop talking in songs

But everything sounds really good! Still not feeling the title song though~
