Well not exactly…

The rumor mill has been spiraling out of control for the past week over a potential collaboration between SNSD and a “major” multinational company. SONEs have been actively monitoring all the back channels and although there have been leaks and guesses at the possibilities; nothing has been officially set in stone.

Today, however, it was reported that the multinational company that wanted to join forces with the sacred nine, is none other than Intel (SURPRISE! SURPRISE! Major brownie points to those who guessed it).

Taken straight from fanwonder:

According to an undisclosed industry-related source on January 9th, Intel is expected to announce SNSD as their Asian CF models soon.

Although the agreement as well as terms between the two parties are unknown, it is believed that Intel is including SNSD as the substantial and significant part of their promotion and advertising plan in the Asian region.

On January 5th, Intel unveiled its latest processor called ‘Sandy Bridge’ at the ‘CES 2011′ in Las Vegas and they are preparing for a large-scale marketing exercise. SNSD are expected to be announced as the main model of the promotional activities.

The advertising contract between Intel and SNSD is seen as a rather unusual and rare ‘phenomenon’ considering the fact that Intel is largely targeting corporate customers  and practices B2B (Business to Business) marketing where celebrities/artistes’ involvement in its advertising activities is rare. However, it will be interesting to see how this global marketing strategy could promote not only the product from a world-known international IT corporation but also the Korean culture to the world through one of Asia’s most popular girl group, SNSD.

Utilizing SNSD’s popularity, Intel plans to maximize its brand loyalty and consumers’ interest in their products thus, strengthening their position in the Asian market.

However, when asked about the content of the promotional and advertising plan, Intel refused to disclose any details and replied, “we could not confirm”. Intel’s agreement with SNSD is expected to be officially announced on January 10th.

Well there you have it ladies and gents, another global conglomerate has taken a liking to SNSD. Look forward to the official announcement/confirmation by Intel and/or S.M. Entertainment, and start anticipating those advertisements!

    1. Until an official announcement can be made by Intel themselves on the 10th, consider it what you will. It seems to be leaning towards truth though.

      By mikechi on 2011/01/09 at 3:49 pm

  2. Hope it will be confirmed soon. XD

    Wonder whether the Intel staff are Sones. LOL

    By TaeYeon888 on 2011/01/09 at 3:49 pm

    1. You know, I have a sneaky feeling they are, or at least the ones that make the major decisions are (which is MOST IMPORTANT 😀 ! ). Looking forward to the print/TV/cinema/ radio ads 🙂 😀 !!!! (Hopefully they’ll do one for the Singapore IT market 😉 .)

      By Kenneth on 2011/01/09 at 6:22 pm

  5. WOW ! GEE ! OH ! I can just imagine all the possible permutations when the official announcements/advertisements/CFs are finally confirmed by the company (? Intel or otherwise 😉 ) 😀 😀 😀 !!!! A MAJOR, MAJOR coup for our beautiful 9 😀 ! Only “downside” that I can see: there will be even less “downtime” for them in the future, what with making/promoting new songs/concepts, attending music shows, overseas concerts/shows, attending TV variety shows, making TV advertisments, filming video promotions for the ? company, etc. The girls are going to need ALL THE LOVE and SUPPORT that SONEs around the world can give them 🙂 😀 !!!! SNSD HWAITING !!!

    By FARRIZ1989 on 2011/01/09 at 5:48 pm

  14. Is Intel utilizing SNSD in Asia only? Intel hasn’t used any celebrities for advertisement since they had the Blue Man Group a long time ago, I doubt they’ll bring SNSD to the US since people in the US don’t recognize them. But this is huge news, since Intel is one of the most influential technology companies in the world and to score this ad deal with them is a najor achievement for their careers.

    By RagingXL on 2011/01/09 at 5:58 pm

  15. I’m participating this new intel logo

  18. Nice!
    The title made me so curious to check out this article!

    By KeithOYS on 2011/01/09 at 6:40 pm

  19. “Many have made predictions that the unusual decision of Intel choosing SNSD for their next cycle of promotions was to globally expose and emphasize the superiority of Korea’s cultural products.”

    SNSD is one of Korea’s cultural products. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ~
    this is going to be another epic achievement under their name.
    a book about Soshistory should be made.

  20. Forever waiting for the new processor that renders SNSD videos 9x faster than the competition.

  23. I feel an intel quad core coming to my house :DD

    By simson nickk on 2011/01/09 at 10:36 pm

  24. *dang*,…..i was going to upgrade my iMac and get the new iPhone4….
    ok….major reversal….gonna get anything with an Intel-SNSD sticker on it for my workstation and Samsung’s Galaxy Star iphone….wait…is SNSD gonna endorse another Samsung phone? should i wait for that??…… :S

    By Niki on 2011/01/09 at 11:32 pm

    1. Stick with Apple computers since some of them have an i5 or i7. A Soshi branded computer/phone would be nice, but I would have to deal with the pain and headaches on Windows.

      By Kevin on 2011/01/10 at 3:22 pm

      1. true….honestly, i love me iMac. XD And i have no probs with Windows either.
        But having “SNSD-Inside-Hardcore” would probably give a new thrilling feel everytime i use my pc. Knowing that SNSD is powering my workstation would double my productivity level. XD oh…won’t the boss be thrilled. He should just soshified the whole company.

        I think i’ll wait for Samsung’s new android phone. If SNSD’s endorsing it, that’ll be extremely superb. Got to get me cuzzy to purchase it for me when it launches.

        By Niki on 2011/01/10 at 4:25 pm

  25. Power of nine inside your computer??
    One more step towards fulfilling Kid leaders dreams of world domination!!

      1. omg yeah sunny and hyos hair colour look so unnatural here, it really sucks. I’m thinking that they edited the colour because I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t really have that hideous shade. despite it, they still both look amazing

I assume the general public will be invited to attend the event ? Or is this just a industry members only function ? Whatever the outcome, I’ll be looking forward to seeing/hearing the advertising concept adopted by the girls for Intel :D. The SONE techies will have a FIELD DAY 😀 😀 😀 !!!!
