Girls’ Generation’s Seohyun made a surprise appearance at Samjiyon Band’s special performance in Seoul for the PyeongChang Winter Olympics and Paralympics. She joined North Korean singers on stage and performed “Our Wish”, a song that yearns for the reunification of the two Koreas.
The South Korean presidential office selected 1,550 people to attend the concert: state officials, the mayor of Seoul, representatives of international organizations, reunification organizations, foreign affairs ministry, leaders of industry, and culturally-important artists. In addition, the North Korean ensemble requested Seohyun specifically, on the same day the concert was to take place. A pianist of the ensemble stated that “In North Korea, SNSD is really the best of the best… and North Korea doesn’t have a group that sings and dances, right? Please stop and see, it’s SNSD.” (trans)
As expected, Girls’ Generation is really THE Nation’s Representative Girl Group. I am eternally proud to be a SONE.
SNSD as a whole has done so much for KPOP. They are literally the nation’s girl group. They are known as the queens of KPOP for a reason. So, just because three members left and a possible disbandment gives nobody the right to downgrade their achievements because as 8 and 9, they’ve done a lot. So let’s list them right here.
-First Girl Group to win 100 Music Show awards -First Girl Group EVER to win a DIsk Daesang -They hold the record for the most Daesangs for a Girl Group -They were the first Girl Group to have 100,000,000 views on YouTube, and has 5 with over 100 million and more approaching. -Their Debut song is used in Korea as a legit ANTHEM for change -THEY WERE AROUND FOR 10 YEARS and yet they stood tall and can still compete with rookie groups -First Group to perform on American Late Night TV -They have sold almost 95 million records; and more than 4 million physical sales, most for any girl group -Held the longest music show wins (9) weeks on Music bank with their Iconic song Gee -Irrelevant but Hit me up when you faves have a LEGACY tab on Wiki - Girls’ Generation along with the Wonder Girls, 2NE1 and more inspired your favorite artists; so don’t you ever disrespect them.
These are honestly the only ones I can think of on the top of my head so anyone add more, because there are so many more.
I will always love and support SNSD as a whole, and solo. I respect their decisions.
Right now, in the future, forever; Girls’ Generation
