Yes! At least according to “Death Note” Director, Shusuke Kaneko. Kaneko tweeted on January 25th: “Although I’m saying this while I’m drunk, SNSD is the best idol group in the past 50 years (among singers)”. LOL! They say people are honest when they’re drunk. Obviously they’re right 😀
All my biases aside, this wasn’t Kaneko’s first mention about SNSD. Last year, after SNSD’s Tokyo showcase, he wrote, “I was stunned by SNSD’s stage performance. They were overflowing with charm on stage.” On January 19th, he tweeted, “I managed to watch the full version PV for SNSD’s new song ‘Visual Dream’. It’s advanced. Aren’t they going to release a Japanese version PV for ‘Run Devil Run’?”
Lucky for the famous director, SM did release a Japanese version of the hit single. Even before then, Kaneko had been using as his Twitter avatar a picture of the girls in Hanboks (now it’s a picture of the girls during “Honey” promos), and described himself as a “SNSD fan, Film Director”, clearly showing his love for Soshi.
He also showed his KARA fanboy side as well, tweeting on January 20th: “I have no idea but Kara seems to be in a serious situation” [Regarding Kara’s possible break from their company DSP].
Recently, our friends over at Fanwonder asked Kaneko several questions via Twitter. When asked to rate the girls from 1 to 10, Kaneko gave a near perfect score of 9! 1 point for each girl heheh. He seemed less sure on his favorite member though, avoiding the who’s-your-fave question with “I don’t want to decide that”. Kaneko finished off nicely with a line from “Oh!”

😀 in my opinion, they are the best idol group<3 no other group can compare to them. they're so popular right now worldwide and i'm glad.

Lol Herro, you could’ve just updated my previous post on Kaneko 😛

I was gonna say… isn’t this a “double post”? You had mentioned this along with other international tweets. Better internal communication needed maybe?
By RagingXL on 2011/01/31 at 5:52 pm
Our communication with each other is fine thank you very much, and this was an honest mistake… I wouldn’t even call it a mistake actually. This new bit of praise from Kaneko deserves its own post anyway.
By mikechi on 2011/01/31 at 10:45 pm
certainly not a double post. there new news so its all good. rarely does this “double post” thing ever happen.

They are……no doubt….
and yeah, I heard too that kara’s possibility of breaking up…
Anyone know Wat happen?
SNSD, fighting!^^

i don’t want to elaborate(also because this is not the site for this topic), but they recently reach a slight agreement with their management to continue on with their current schedules. personally, i think its really a waste of time…and people were saying its a publicity stunt they pulled. i think it is kind of stupid to file a lawsuit a couple of weeks ago, but not follow through it and get back at the same company you try to leave. very bipolar!

But not a PV though, small error? Should get him to direct the Japanese RDR! I think Soshi could rock darker Japanese fashion hella nice. Not gothic lolita though.

no doubt!!!

I could ramble on how the general public have radically different perspectives on what defines the best in a category without all of the biases in between and more… But nah. Been there, done that, went awry.
Since SNSD’s been the best in what they do throughout these entire time, and always coming back to find out more about the lovely ladies, so yea, they’ve definitely deserve to be considered the best for our generation.
By Terrez on 2011/02/01 at 12:21 am
I believe that SNSD is Asia’s finest…we need for the girls to have more positive exposures here in the U.S. :)…my hope is for them to guest on a show, like Oprah or Ellen or Conan O’Brien!
By LadyIgraine on 2011/02/01 at 8:21 am
You know how there are many American or any western internet celebrities who are dominating the Youtube entertainment scene with their vlogs and channels? Despite a few quirks with them here and there, I believe that through at least one of them, having SNSD mentioned in any of the celebs’ videos gives the ladies the prior exposure they need and raise awareness a hella’ fast to a whole, wide new audience. Considering the amount of people watching the videos and how viral it gets… And its before SNSD even sets a foot in any western country for physical promotions.
Youtube = One of the biggest forms of publicity.

recently ICONIQ’s (Lee Ayumi) boyfriend Lee Tadanari (Lee Chungsung is his korean name) scored the winning goal against Australia for japan. The winning goal was followed by a winning dance, and guess what that was? he did the arrow shot dance to “Hoot.”
By LadyIgraine on 2011/02/01 at 7:11 am
That is so COOL 😀 😀 😀 !!!! A “closet” SONE coming out of “hiding” 😉 😀 ?!!! The girls are certainly LOVED everywhere, it seems :).
By Kenneth on 2011/02/01 at 4:46 pm
GO AWAY,
i love SNSD but there have been equally great idol groups, such as FINKL, SES in past years.
I dont consider them the best for this decade, but they are definately amongst the best.
By Steven on 2011/02/01 at 8:29 pm
We know right? SoShi is the best !
