No but seriously… there’s (1, 2, 3, 4)… 9 of them! =D
Numbers aside, I’m not here for a counting lesson. The girls are off promotions, but they’re still enjoying a huge burst in popularity. With their showcase in Japan in exactly 2 months and LG booth in South Africa for the World Cup, they’re practically stealing the spotlight. EVERYONE wants a piece of SoShi.
Let’s start this off with a letter.
How awesome is that?? Okay fine… I’ll (find someone to) translate. For this first part, you have to understand that SM actually owns a part of SPAO. This would be why SPAO has been so gung-ho about the SoShi and SuJu within their stores. Well, major clothing brands such as Levi Jeans and Nike have been trying to get SNSD. You can only imagine SM’s response, since advertising other companies would be promoting their competition. Well, recently, one company has been drilling SM, constantly raising the ante. It’s pretty much to the point where SNSD is guaranteed to make a CF for these guys. I just wonder how SM was so willing to give them up… These girls are priceless!
Unrelated to the note but related to CF’s and the girls, they have an LG CF coming up, and YoonA is getting a new contract with Innisfree under better terms and higher pay. There is also a rumored Domino’s Pizza CF, but it has yet to be confirmed.
Moving on, does this look familiar to anyone?
Yep, you guessed it (I think?). This is YoonA’s hand mold which was put up in an auction for charity. It went for a whopping 2,303,000 won. In USD, that would be $1940.19. This doesn’t compare to how much the girls are making from their Nippon DVD. In fact, Japan has been so excited about SoShi….
… that SoShi’s fanclub has gained 13,000 fans, and rising. That’s about 1/8th of SSF, which is on an International scale.
This week’s Music Bank is the half year special, so SoShi will obviously be performing. The show is at 6:40PM KST. Drop by the Chatroll and join us in spazzing over the show! Let’s cheer SNSD on to another victory together! ^_^

lol i probably would’ve done the same thing with the 9 as well hahaha.
that aside, i’m really excited about japanese soshi. i wasn’t too happy about it at first, but we’ll get to see more sides of the girls and there’s nothing wrong with spreading the love.
OH! the suspense is killing me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SNSD FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just wish they wouldn’t do a lot of unhealthy food commercials -_- but I want a piece of Soshi too. I guess I gotta wait my turn and let Japan have them for a long time XD
Man, pile of awesome updates.
C’mon SM, just let the girls do heaps of CFs.
a) more income
b) more exposure
c) More competition so economy goes up up 😀
whoa, thanks for the update! if the girls were to actually promote for other clothing companies, i think it would be easier for them to go international. but then again, SM’s playing smart. hahaha
thanks for the music bank update too! i heard that they were performing, but i had no idea why -__-;;; i’m so excited!!!
Not only that, but who would think that SNSD even are popular in Scandinavia too? (You know, not that “lady gaga” kind of fame. But like… a couple hundred or even thousands of people know/like them?).
SNSD is def the real hallyu stars in the world!
woot, thx for the updates!
too bad SM rejected Levis and Nike’s offers 😛
yes, more JSones on the list!
These girls can sell anything!
What japanese site is that could u please give me the link? Thank You

I had to rely on someone else to get the screenshot. You need a japanese phone to properly register, and you have to recieve texts from it so it costs money.
Oh Thank you very much! your the best hahaha
What does it mean by “give them up” r they not going to be with SM anymore?
In the sense that they will be advertising for rival clothing companies, because SM owns a stake in SPAO.
snsd is the best group from korea….i love them
