Before I start writing: I actually forgot about this until a few days ago so…there won’t be anything special for this post since I told the staff late. My bad 😦 And this post might be a bit bad..woke up to a few problemos. ANYWAY.
So two years ago, a silly idea came to me: start a fan site for SNSD.
I don’t know how or why the idea came to me..especially since I was a pretty new fan to the group. They were the second group in Kpop that I liked (Big Bang being the first) and probably still the only girl group that I have a complete 100% interest in still. I started getting curious and looking up the girls around the end of December ’07 and really started becoming a fan around January. During that time it was hard to find news and pictures of the girls, except for a certain forum, but I personally never liked forums since you had to sign up, search around the place for this and that. Too much work. Why not something simple? Well, I guess that’s how the idea came to me then: a blog.
I had no idea what I was doing and after maybe 8 months, I got way too lazy and just began copying and pasting articles. Surprisingly the views still continued to grow. Luckily though, Maria popped out and started posting and helping out. She volunteered to help when I made a plea asking for assistance while I took off for a vacation over the summer. (didnt work out so well since her computer died D: ) But luckily she helped out because without her, we couldn’t have gotten all those affiliates (points to right hand side bar) and brought so much more attention to this blog. THANKS BEHBEH ❤
LOL HOLY SHIT I DIDNT EVEN KNOW I HAD THIS.
And then of course, we hired new staffers. I COULDNT EXPRESS MORE APPRECIATION TO FERREROROCHER9, JULAYY (i dont know how many frickin y’s you have girl 
), CRAZY51, SOOFANY, SOSHIMMY (wait is that right? its early in the morning) and ELLE. I know readers are probably thinking “you guys are so freakin slow.” Well..all I ahve to say is, this blog wouldn’t even be moving without them. So thanks to you all 🙂 It’s so great talking to all of you, especially Julie who stalks the crap out of me <33 I know Julie and Ferrerorocher9 (didnt know if you wanted your real name out there girl) are entering college this fall just like me, so good luck girls! Get that number 1 school onto your list of acceptances. Wish us luck everyone!
Lastly, readers and commenters. I know there are LURKERSS so please, drop a comment for us. We like to know someone is reading the janx we post. But thanks to you guys, our views go up, our popularity goes up, We rank what is it..number 2 or 1 on google. Sure snsd might not visit us but we’re converting fans through thisplace. We bring laughter (hopefully) to you all. Plus we allow some vulgarity. LOL. Continue supporting us, these last two years have not been easy. Stop by the chatroll on the right hand side, make an account, and talk with us 🙂 I’ve met some pretty awesome creepers people from it. You da best. AND SIGN UP TO BE A STAFFER. >>HURRR<<
Couldn’t thank you all enough for stickin’ by our sides with this silly blog. I wish this post could’ve been even more special but hey, its the thoughts the counts right? Have a wonderful weekend and continue reppin’ the 9 girls we love oh so much!
SNSD Korean 
Yea, it’s been great these 2 years. 🙂 Keep up the good work!
Congrats on your 2nd year anniversary!! ☆★*throws confetti confetti*★☆
Wow…has it been that long?? Time seems to fly! SNSDkorean was the 1st SNSD related site that i came across. I think most people would have come across SSF 1st, but for me it was this awesome site!
I remember lurking round this blog in the middle of 2008 and like most directionally-challenged humanoids, i thought this was THE direct-english-hotline to snsd. “Get connected folks. This is your ultimate medium to 9 awesome girls!” heee! XD it took me awhile to realize that this was not the hotline i mistook it for. But you did connect me and hooked me up to loads of SNSD news and fantasy-goss. <—-*ahem* (insert Maria's Jeti and KPSD here). This was (and still is) a great place for me to voice my opinions and have my occasional Taesu-shoutouts/craze from time to time.
And when your chatroll came up, i met loads more of amazing people online.
Though i don't comment as much as i used to these days (and i apologize for that), i'm thankful that SNSDkorean is still here. I still haunt this place. 😀
It's great to hear that the team is expanding and i hope to see Cindy and Maria (as well as the rest of the team) continue to run this blog in years to come!
Thanks again for providing me with all my SNSD fix! Cheers to another 10 great years to come. You're amazing!!~~♥
you have no idea how much this blog had helped me! everything was made so much easier for me; latest news, translated videos, CFs, pics etc and my growing obsession towards the group owed it all to this blog.
thank you for coming up with such a magnificent silly idea. lol.
(i had always been a lurker btw. just answering to your call)
love you boss lady.and all the other people who are a part of this!
oh btw boss lady if it wasn’t for u creating this site i’d be virtually dead now
congrats on your second year!!!
when i’ve become an SNSD fan, i wanted news about them so i searched a fansite for them…and 2 relevant sites popped up…soshified and this…and yeah you’re right, forums really is intimidating and requires more work…and it led me to this blog…i’ve been regularly reading this for about 7 or 8 months now…me want to thank all the dedicated staffers here who supplied me knowledge of the nine girls that i am living to love…i have just made an account of the forum thsi january when i craved for more snsd stuffs, but this blog really is something that completes my SNSD spazzing…
hope for more years to come!
Hwaiting! XD
Congrats 2nd year anniversary! haha, i can say that all the girls whom help out this blog. Appreciate a lot. You girls make my life easier, by checking out latest updates thru here. & i don’t have to search like crazy for updates regarding SNSD. Well, i really do want to say a ‘thank you’! I know is difficult to get news that fast. I really want to know your more! Every time I open my Mozilla, your page was the 2nd want i opened everytime. First, was soshified. LOL!
Well, i am actually proud of u! How much effort u put in it to become a truly crazy fans over SNSD.
yeah, i agree that going other people website thru forums you gotta sign up. A bit disturbing, i guess. haha.
Hey there, Happy Birthday!!!
I have been following this blog since I first knew SNSD. Even though this is not the “official website” or so, but I have to say this blog is fantastic. Thanks to all your posts, translations, etc that I got to know more about SNSD. I really appreciate the existence of this blog. ( I would really love to contribute to this blog, but due to my packed schedule, I can promise to commit. my apologies)
Keep up the good work and who knows, maybe the girls might drop by someday. Haha..
All in all, thanks a lot!!!
(ps. I had always been a lurker too.)
aww, you’re awesome too, Cindy! Same some compliments for yourself next time woncha? You’ve been doing a great job (especially during recent times with the dry spell of news) and I cannot thank you enough for dedicating your time for updates despite having a life outside the Internet 😛 (nah i’m kidding) and seriously, if I have to be dead honest with you, I can attribute the success and high traffic in your blog to the “simple layout, but awesome content” factor, complete with theories and some twist. With that said, happy 2nd anniversary, SNSDkorean.
Save* some compliments for yourself. annoying typo!
I love you Cindy and staffers<333333
Congrats on the 2nd year anniversary!
I come here for the vulgarity. Sweet, sweet vulgarity. Always my first stop for SNSD news. And vulgarity.
Sorry if I’m a day late. Anyway, Woohoo! Congratulations on your second year. This is one of the two blogs I regularly check after opening my laptop. Thank you very much to the staff and to everyone who contributed to this blog’s success. This is a really great site. You quench my thirst for everything soshi. I hope you continue to post and that more people may follow your site. Thank you again and more power.
Uhm, question: Was this recently posted? Because I checked the blog between 10-11pm (It’s already 2:30 am in our time zone) and I think I didn’t see this. So yeah, keep on rocking! \m/
Oh youre not a day late, least in my time zone 🙂 its still the 27th here at my place so i did it for my time!
Congratulations on the 2nd year anniversary.
congrats cindy & rest of the team, wonderful job 🙂
Boss Lady,
For non-Korean-speaking and serious-but-not-forum-membership-serious SNSD fans, this blog is absolutely indispensable. The writing is solid and you have a good sense of what people would be most interested in without overwhelming anybody with the kind of minutiae that would quickly wear everybody out.
Keep up the great work, and best of luck with your staff recruitment. If I was young, female, Korean, or in high school, I would be beating down the door to be a part of this excellent site.
really appreciate the comment there 🙂
I dont know if i might’ve misunderstood your last statement but not all of our staffers are female and none are korean, so if you are interested in helping out, submit an app 😀
I just re-read the application post and I think it was I that misunderstood the guidelines when I originally read them. I still don’t think I’m the type of writer you’re looking for, but I’ll apply. 🙂
Hoy there all of you keeping this site alive.
I’m a few years into university and just a couple of weeks ago passed the thin line where the majority of everything you do is “grown up, respectable stuff”. Leisure time i scarce, to say the least.
I discovered this blog around the same time, and it’s been a blessing ever since. It presents me with everything that the rest of my life is not with no strings attached; no demand on commitment or anything.
What I want to say is: In many ways you guys make long, tiring days both less long and less tiring, and it’s greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work.
haha dang, two years now? didn’t seem that long ago i was following the site because you were posting up all the soompi and ssf translations up here. Although i read most of my news from soshified ever since they streamlined the news feeds there, I still come over here to read as well…haha i think i’m trained ^^
oh and sorry for not posting much lately…i’m a bit surprised at how much school sucks the will out to comment ><
hahah i still remember the twist the blog took when maria popped up ^^ (in a good way of course!)
HAPPY TWO YEARS ANNIVERSARY!!!
I wanted to say, thank you for keeping this site alive all these years. even though you felt tired and lazy and didn’t want to update or anything, I still thank you =]
without this website, most people would be soshi-deprived, or have no clue what SNSD is. Yeah, they can go to soshified or soompi to find out and stuff, but then you will have to register and snoop around to find information.
Here, all the information is posted here so we don’t have to snoop around to find things =] and also, without this website, I wouldn’t have met this lame pooface stalker name cindy !! muahahha
anyway, hopefully, even through college, this website will still be up and running =]
cool here’s to the next year of soshidom 😉
You guys are awesome! (Although some of the theories tend to be kind of nutty.)
Mmm i don’t have much to say but, “woooh congratulations on another successful year lol..”
my snsd experience wouldn’t be the same without you guys. forever and sincerest thanks.
I love this web site, don’t ever quit!!! yay!
Happy 2nd Anniversary!.. 🙂 Congrats Boss Lady 🙂
I must be one of those LURKERS lol. Following you fellas for more than a year but only commented a few times.
Congrats on the anniversary, and keep up the good work. Thanks.
2nd Anniversary already? Congratulations on the milestone, staffers and viewers alike!!
I only really discovered So Nyeo Shi Dae about 8 months ago and on my second day of finding out about their existence, I found the SNSDkorean WordPress. The joy it has brought me has been paramount and I’m telling the truth when I say that I can’t remember anything of 2009 prior to that time, save for my last ever school camp.
The humour has always been much appreciated and I love it how even though the girls are pampered in the posts here, the writers aren’t afraid to throw in some fun (Maria!!!). If it wasn’t for all of the writers here, I can honestly say that I would not have explored SNSD any further. It’s because of this blog that I love them so and will continue do so.
I also want to say thanks to the viewers here because it’s been such a great experience meeting you and hearing out your reasons for following SNSD and just in general learning more about you as people. I suggest that you drop by the chatroll, I think it has the most people in there on Friday evenings (EST). Learn more about your fellow fans and just have a great time!
Many thanks to the team, in particular Boss Lady for starting this… shall I call it an initiative? You make loving SNSD such a simple task. I look forward to the future and will be watching this blog grow to new heights. One day we’ll get attention from the girls themselves for sure!
thank YOU GUYS for all the hard work and providing interesting news about snsd to us. 😀
one thing i learned from you guys and from the 9 girls you adore is “when the going gets tough, the tough gives double the effort”. congrats and keep it up! 😀
OORRRSSSOOOMMMMMEEEE!, Happy 2nd anniversary! yyouve supported this site well! and keep the GREAT work up!
Keep up the good work people! I read this blog everyday for my daily tidbits of SNSD! ‘preciate everything you guys’ve been doing!
Haha, I didn’t know you were a VIP!!! BIGBANG FOREVER!!! Thanks for creating this blog too! Loved it! SOSHI BB FOREVER!!!!
Hi my little lovelies<3
Another year of GREATNESS. Oh Cindy behbeh, they time we've spent together and the hard work we've put on this blog… Damn, I wish I had more time.
LONG LIVE KPSD!
-sLaVe
two years huh? i was thinking about this a few days ago and i’ve been checking almost everyday ever since i found this blog. THANK YOU BOSS and to the STAFF for bringing us SNSD goodies!
i’ve got to say that aside from the blog articles i got hooked because of the chatroll. the people there really keep you updated with SNSD goodies and with them throwing in their opinions is the icing on the cake. we may not discuss SNSD all of the time but they’re really fun people. i’m not saying this because i’m one of the people who hang out there but they’re really interesting people. if ever some news aren’t posted here yet you can be sure that the others can give you a good supply of them. it’s not just the latest news but some old stuff on SNSD too. somehow, for me, it’s really refreshing 🙂 (lol sorry if i seem to be pimping the chatroll boss)
well i hope that this blog will prosper and get more viewers! also, it’ll be cool to see what’s installed for us with the hiring (i don’t know if this word is appropriate) of new staff and all.
snsdkorean blog fighting!
Even though I’m an avid Soshified member, but I visit this site everyday. You present little clips on youtube that are extremely adorable that I would never would have found on my own, and give out news in a humourous and casual manner; not to mention pictures as well. I really appreciate it. Rather than lurking around forums for specific things, I can just come here and see for myself. Thanks a lot.
Thank you guys always for your hard work. It makes my day when I come on here to check for Soshi updates. And your silly humorous comments never cease to make me laugh <3. I'll keep praying for you guys. SNSD wordpress hwaiting! ❤
seeing something cute or funny about our 9 favorite girls always makes me happy, no matter what else is going on in real life. thanks so much for all your hard work and good luck with college acceptances guys!
:[ I’m a bad staff, always replying late. I really apologize for this.
But HAPPY BELATED ANNIVERSARY SNSDKOREAN<3 !! – One of the reasons why my interest in SNSD grew in the first place! – It's my first blog ever and I'm glad I was given the chance to be an SNSDKOREAN staff member (though i'm a slacker). Thanks for mentioning me in the post Cindy. I really hope all of us get into our tops too :] I'm sure you will get into your top JUST BECAUSE! And lol it's always alright with me if you ever wanna write my real name.
❤
congratulations for running this blog site on almost two years!!!! eventhough i’m new here.. i enjoy the new updates of SNSD! you help me keep on touch to them!!! thank you very much!!! kamsahamnida!!!!!!
