Question: How did you feel when Girls’ Generation was announced as the winner of the Daesang?
Taeyeon: We were really thankful. We did not realize it at first when it was announced in Japanese. Only when ‘So Nyeo Shi Dae’ was mentioned, we realized it was us. (laughter) Until now, the smiles seem to be stuck on our faces. It reminded me of last year. We could not hold back our tears when we received the award last year and we are really happy to receive it again this year.

Question: Did you expect to win the award?
Tiffany: We wanted to win it. (laughter) However, we were nervous about it along with other great artists. Because we worked very hard last year, we would be satisfied even if we didn’t win the award. We are thankful for the award.

Question: At this moment, Who comes to your mind?
Sooyoung: Definitely, we thought of our fans first. Thanks to our fans, we were able to receive this award. Thank you so much.

Question: Last year, when you were receiving your Daesang, all the members were sad because Tiffany who suffered an injury to her leg could not be there. I think it must be special since all nine members are here to receive the awards.
Tiffany: It feels really great. I think I’m the happiest and most excited among all of us. It feels good to be with the members and I will work even harder in the future.

Question: What was 2010 like to Girls’ Generation?
Jessica: We were extremely busy. It was nice to be able to meet a lot of overseas fans. Please wait for a while more as we will be meeting you again.

Question: Girls’ Generation won the New Artist Award in 2007, Digital Daesang in 2009 and Disk Daesang in 2010. This year, you have won Bonsang and Daesang too. Girls’ Generation seem to have a good bond with Golden Disk Awards.
Yuri: It was really an honor. It was really great to receive the award. I think this year will be a happy year for us too.

Question: In the recent 3 years, without fail, Girls’ Generation have been winning the Digital and Disk Daesang on alternate years. After Kim GunMo, Girls’ Generation are the second artist to have won Golden Disk Daesang for 3 years in a row.
YoonA: Now that you mentioned it, I’m getting the goosebumps immediately. Ah, because ’3 consecutive years’ was mentioned, I think I’m feeling the electrified sensation all over. We are thankful and we will work even harder to perform better to achieve good results next year too.

Question: Since debut, Girls’ Generation have been on the rise continuously. However, I think there must be some difficult times too. When was it?
Tiffany: Everytime there is a difficulty, I face and get through those tough times together with the members. I’m thankful to all the members.

Question: What are your plans for 2012?
Seohyun: Since last year, we had our Arena Tour in Japan. We plan to continue performing this year too. While we’re going on our Arena Tour, we also hope that our dream of having a world tour will materialize. We would like to greet our fans often.

Question: Would you like to convey some messages to your fans around the world?

[120113]Jessica Is ‘Wild Romance”s Secret Weapon

It has been mentioned that Jessica was added to KBS2′s drama “Wild Romance” as a secret weapon.  Since the drama seems to have quite an unpredictable storyline in the eyes of drama fanatics, it will be hard to determine how good the viewer ratings will be.  However, many are speculating that Girls’ Generation’s Jessica being a cast member will help boost the ratings.  Because of recent overseas schedules, Jessica was only able to film her parts starting early next week.  As Jessica slowly garners the interest of many people with her drama debut, her character will be making her first appearance in “Wild Romance”‘s sixth episode.

 

A staff member of the drama stated, “We haven’t been able to film yet due to her overseas schedules.  We will begin filming early next week, and she will be joining with a major role.”

 

In addition to acting, Jessica will also be singing the OST for “Wild Romance” alongside Kim Jinpyo.  The song is set to be digitally released on January 19th and can be found here

[120113]Interview with Girls’ Generation After Winning Their Third Golden Disk Daesang

Girls’ Generation, who has been active in Asia and all around the world, held the digital Golden Disk daesang and shed hot tears. Girls’ Generation made their first steps on the Golden Disk Award stage in 2007, receiving the rookie award with “Into the New World”. In 2009, they received the digital Golden Disk daesang with “Tell Me Your Wish”, and also received the daesang the following year with “Hoot”. They were able to receive the digital daesang for “The Boys” once again this year. After the award ceremony ended, we met with the members, who were hugging one another, enjoying their happiness backstage.

-What were your thoughts when you were called for the daesang?

(Taeyeon) ”I’m really thankful. Because they called us in Japanese, I didn’t hear it well at first and was taken aback. It turned out they had called Girls’ Generation. (laughs) I can’t stop smiling even now. I’m reminded of last year. We shed tears of joy last year, too. I’m happy they gave it to us again this year.”

-Did you predict your win?

(Tiffany) ”I wanted to receive it. (laughs) But I was nervous because there were other talented and great singers. I told myself I’d be satisfied even without an award because we worked hard last year. But I’m thankful we were given the award.”

-Is there anyone you’re thinking of right now?

(Sooyoung) ”I would have to say our fans are the first to come to mind. We were able to receive this award thanks to our fans. I’m thankful.”

-The members were all sad when receiving the daesang last year because Tiffany wasn’t present due to an injured leg. This year must have been more special because you received it all together.

(Tiffany) ”It felt really good. I think I was the happiest and most excited. I’m happy being with my members and can only think of working harder.”

-What kind of year was 2011 like for Girls’ Generation?

(Jessica) ”It was a very busy year. It was a year where we could meet many fans overseas. If they wait a little, we will go to meet them again.”

-You received the rookie award in 2007, digital daesang in 2009, and Golden Disk daesang in 2010. You recieved the daesang again this year, as well as a bonsang. You have a deep connection with Golden.

(Yuri) ”It’s a real honor. There were many good things after receiving the awards. I think this year will be another happy year.”

-During the past 3 years, you didn’t miss a single daesang, getting the digital daesang one year, the Golden Disk daesang the next, and the digital daesang again this year. Girls’ Generation is the second singer to receive the daesang for three consecutive years following Kim Gunmo.

(Yoona) ”I got goosebumps after hearing that just now. Ah, it feels electrifying hearing ‘three consecutive years’ that I’m getting goosebumps. Thank you, and we will work hard to show good results next year with great performances.”

-You’ve been continuing to rise after your debut. But I think there would have been times where you were tired as an individual. When was that?

(Tiffany) ”There were always hard times, but I was able to overcome those hard times because of my members. I’m thankful to my members.”

-Plans for 2012?

(Seohyun) ”We’ve been having a Japan arena tour since last year. We are planning on continuing our concerts this year. While going around our arena tour, I’ve gained a dream to have a world tour. I want to meet with fans often.”

-A word to fans all over the world.

“Thank you for giving us such a big award. 2012 is also Girls’ Generation!”

[120112]Girls’ Generation Wins Digital Daesang at the 26th Golden Disk Awards

Girls’ Generation Wins the Digital Daesang award for the 26th Golden Disk Awards.

The 26th Golden Disk Awards in Osaka was held in the Kyocera Dome, Osaka, Japan on January 11-12 as a two-day award event. Girls’ Generation came on the second day, wearing dark-toned dresses as they graced the red carpet.


At around 8:40 p.m., the nine girls received a Digital Bonsang award for their 2011 Korean single, “The Boys”. They expressed their thoughts after winning by saying, “Thank you to the fans who love not only one track ‘The Boys’, but the 3rd album as a whole. In the future, we will be a more hardworking Girls’ Generation.”

Fans were delighted when they received the news, and “Congrats SNSD” soon appeared on the worldwide trending topics list on Twitter. The two words managed to reached the third rank on the list in a short span of time.

Around 90 minutes after receiving their Digital Bonsang award, Girls’ Generation was called onto the stage once again to receive their Digital Daesang award. Girls’ Generation has received three Daesang awards in a row starting in 2009 with their first Digital Daesang. More were added to their ongoing list as they earn their first Disk Daesang award in 2010 and this year’s Digital Daesang award. Girls’ Generation is now officially the first girl group that has received three Daesang awards, the highest number of Daesang awards any group or artist has ever received.

On a side note, Tiffany was absent from the 25th Golden Disk Awards last year due to an injury, so the girls were thrilled to have her on stage and to be able to stand as nine while they received the most prestigious award of the night.

“Congrats SNSD” and “Digital Daesang” quickly made their ways up the worldwide Twitter trending topics list, expressing the instant excitement fans felt. Pictures from the red carpet and the event can be found in Soshified’s photo section here and here respectively.
