[Update] This may be irrelevant to the girls, but BoA tweeted that she won’t be attending SM Town Live in Paris due to her conflicting schedules and this means that there won’t be any BoShi moments :[
Believe it! It has been confirmed that this year, on June 10th, there will be an SM Town Live concert in Europe–more specifically, at ‘Le Zenith de Paris’ in Paris, France. This is actually the first time as previous years, SM Town Live concerts were only held in Asian countries (ex. Korea, China, Thailand, Japan) with the except of one held last fall in LA, United States.
The girls’ agency company, SM Entertainment, is the first Korean entertainment company to hold a joint concert in Europe and SM artists including TVXQ, Super Junior, Girls’ Generation, SHINee, and f(x), will be present. Unfortunately,
according BoA_1105@Twitter, she tweeted that she won’t be attending due to her schedule filming in Toronto for her upcoming movie, ‘COBU 3D’.
SM Entertainment revealed “Through this Paris performance, and through Asia, they plan for their artists to participate in global activities with using a variety of networking”.

Notably, world famous singers including Neyo, Pussycat Dolls, and the Jonas Brothers have performed at the venue before. It is quite exciting wouldn’t you say? European SONES have the chance to see the girls as well as the rest of the SM family! (I wish I could fly across the world to attend, but I’ll be in a lot of debt)

Ooer thoguht UK would be better than France, but maybe coz france is easy to get to from other european countries.
It’s because the UK only has the O2 area and only world wide famous people get there which is sad 😦
I wish they would come to the UK too but let’s keep our fingers crossed
OMG !!! they have REALLY REALLLY good luck !!!
i’d love to fly to france just for that concert too!! TT_TT
wonder if sm is planning on holding a concert on the east cost anytime soon…
uaaa daebak they wouldnt come to Mongolia it’s sad
*does happy dance* finallyyyyyyyyyyyyy~~~~~~ oh yeah oh yeah xDDDDDDD
I hope they’ll c0me here also in philippines, pr0mise., their g0ing to be instant celebrity here., pls sm entertainment,pls bring snsd in philippines! 🙂 hundred thousands SONEs are waiting to them!
Oh god so close and yet so far 😦
AH ! Lucky European SONES 😉 !!! I wish I could be there too :D, but it’ll be too “taxing” on the wallet 😀 😀 😀 !!!
Here’s wishing the 9 ladies and the rest of the SM “gang” a SUCCESSFUL concert <3333 🙂 !!!
Wow, our ladies and all Korean signers are really “strong” now, they are popular all over the world! Now is Europe!
i can’t wait to see the PINK OCEAN from sones in paris!!!
Cheers to European fans for finally getting to see their idols live!!
OK ENOUGH OF THIS, i don’t know about you guys but they need to come to CANADA
CAAAAAANAAAAAAAADAAAAAAA
That’s true!!!!!! What about the Canadian SONES?!?! T-T
Euro-fans this is your chance :)…and le Zenith de Paris is one of the largest concert venues in France, so this place is “no joke.” Staples’ Center is only a big bigger, but it holds thousands in its capacity.
That’s an interesting choice… the french are a little rude and racist but let’s hope the groups don’t get to see that.
@Viane, I agree, ok French don’t have a good image as people think we are rude (and yes we are) and racist (this is not true in this case). Lots of ethnicities are represented in France: Africa, Middle-East countries, Asia as well like Vietnam, China, South Korea and so on .
Why do u think, at any World Cup event, everybody is surprised because our soccer team is 95% composed of coloured and black-skinned people ?
Anyway, nobody agrees about the location of the SM Town event but hey, i wish they could go to every European country in order to satisfy all their SONES.
Allez, sois pas deg 😉
@Viane honestly I think you should keep that opinion to yourself. This concert wouldn’t be attended by French only you know. SONEs, Cassies, ELFs and others from all across Europe are likely to come attend this concert, given the relative ease of travel across Europe compared to, like, from the East to the West Coast of the US. Americans and some rich Asians may also come attend too. If there should be any concern about racial tolerance, it should be among the audience against each other, since the audience would far outnumber the idols.
As for the idols themselves, I do believe that there will be sufficient managers and security to handle any problems (no way the Taeyeon incident didn’t give SM a wake-up call), and I have full confidence our girls will be able to shrug off any racist remarks (assuming they understood what the person said lol). They could treat antis with warmness and forgiveness, so what’s to say racists will not receive the same treatment from our beautiful girls?
Wahhh!!!!! Lucky european i wish u fully enjoy the concert (AGK mode on!!!), i hope they come to South America someday, the whole region love korean music and drama.
Awww… Can’t they come just two countries north of France… Anyways… Pretty cool they finally come to Europe!! 😀
I’m seriously considering getting the train there to see this…
Lucky European fans! ^-^
YAAAY! I need to attend! I hope nothing will stop me! *crosses fingers* 😀
I WANT A SOLO CONCERT IN SINGAPORE!!!
SINGAPORE FANS WANTS TO SEE SNSD LIVE!!!
🙂 🙂 🙂
argh shucks i left Europe by tat time!…n i’ll be in Korean in June which means no chance 4 mi to meet them in Europe and less chance 4 mi to meet them in Korean!…unlucky mi…=(
France is the perfect location. Almost all of Europe (with exception of England and the nordic countries) can get there by train. AND I SHALL GO BROS.
All the best for the whole of SMTown for a successful SMTown 2011 Concert in Paris, France.
Lucky European fellas’, with your ease of traveling across the majority of the continent by rail/train, meaning attending the concert will be a breeze for you guys. I hope all of you will experience one of the best times of your lives!
While we Asian and American SONEs’ watch away in envy behind the safety of our computer screen(s) with whatever fancams’ taken by camera-equipped attendees might surface on the internet…
Haha, no seriously, have fun and enjoy yourselves!
That goes out to the rest of the wonderful crew at SMTown at well.
Heeell yes!
i’ve bought a plain ticket here from norway, and June 9th I will head to France!
see you there soshi sm family ❤
OH FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY TIFFANYYYY!!!!! My last oral exam is somewhere between june 6th and 10th, and I BETTER GET AN EARLY DATE or else they might just have to do without me on that exam…
(And hey! Fellow Norwegian!)
hey! 😀
we might just meet at the airport! hahahaha
I’m French and I can know a little why they come in France. Because we have made a lot of events to invite Korean idol in our country. There is a lot of French fan club who work, to convince the Korea, Right now there is a group of French in South Korea thanks the association Korean Connection; like there was French fan on the last Music Bank to support UKiss. Our aim it’s to prove that there is French Fan about Korean Music, Halluyu Wave. Personnally I won’t go there because I’m just 16 years old, and I have my exams to pass, so impossible for me 😦
WHERE?? WHERE IN FRANCE??
Why haven’t asian artists/singers thought that they have EUROPEAN fans too until now??
And hey, Ayu said that she would love to come outside Asia, but has she toured outside yet? Nope. I’m still waiting.
france sones…..I AM SO ENVY OF YOU……i hate you guys…..XD
even though soshi perform in my country, i still cant go…..T.T….
but hope when the day has come, you all have fun!!!
make sure you cheer and scream like a mad man!!! haha…..jkjk…
SNSD, fighting! ^^
Will you upate with the ticket website??? I can finally go to this one!!!
Upset that BoA isn’t going to go and she’s my idol but GG here I come!
OMG first time ever outside Asia and it’s in PARISSSSSSSSSSS
Not in Germany, not in the UK, in my countryyyy
And of course, i cannot attend to it as i have something important at this date , i’m sooooooooooo disappointed !!!!!!!
oh goshhh I understaD u so well, I also can’t go to the coNcert T_T, I have a holiday trip at June 9, this is sooo farkin disappoiting T_T, at least I’ll buy some pink goodies 😀
What is this?! Aussie SONEs… we’ve got to make ourselves HEARD!!! D: I want SM town live 2012 be in Australia… got it? so get to work 😛
I know right? Isn’t it about time that aussies get some k-pop love too?
SO agree to that :D!!!!!
France? FRANCE???? WHY FRANCE!?!?!?!! Isn’t at least London more the centre for concerts and stuff????? Man…… I don’t get it….
France is the center of Europe apparently and if you want to conquer Europe, you go to the center.
Its sad that the UK isn’t though =(
Now they will have to learn french. Why not stick to English?
Wow! I’m pretty sure that when it will be a succes (it will be) they will do a Tour around Europe. That would be really cool.
Why, god why? My biggest wish comes true, but it’s still in France. It’s like they want to tease me to death. Why are airplane tickets so expensive? If I get lucky they could be on discount, but I’m unlucky. Also, the tickets cost too much for the poor me. Oh well, at least other fans can finally go.
At last !!!^^ My dream comes true….
I’ve been waiting so long !
Paris is the best choice, SM has great taste ^^
SNSD à Paris tu peux juste pas test….
J’avoue à Paris c’est juste trop opé !
darn… can’t go to france =( live so close as well! Why can’t they come UK?!?!?! =(
I hope France know how lucky they are!!! SM is awsome esp when the girls are there! SNSD <333
@Viviane Don’t say that French are racist, in our country there is a lot of people from Africa, Asia and a lot of country !
I see that people are really disgusted that is in France, And French know how they are lucky for sure!
Même si comme moi certains ne peuvent pas venir et sont méga dégouté! 😦 foutu BAC de première!
@Viviane, I agree, ok French don’t have a good image as people think we are rude (and yes we are) and racist (this is not true in this case). As @Manon say, lots of ethnicities are represented in France: Africa, Middle-East countries, Asia as well like Vietnam, China, South Korea and so on .
Why do u think, at any World Cup event, everybody is surprised because our soccer team is 95% composed of coloured and black-skinned people ?
Anyway, nobody agrees about the location of the SM Town event but hey, i wish they could go to every European country in order to satisfy all their SONES.
@Manon, Moi non plus je ne pourrai pas venir je pense, mais faut que je me donne au maxxxxxx pour faire en sorte de changer la donne ! Bon courage pour le Bac
Moi aussi je passe mon oral de BEP ce jour là, je suis trop deg’
hmmm France? I mean, is the hallyu wave and KPOP in general big at all in europe?
I remember watching a lot of reports and specials on the korean hallyu wave here and on soshified
this really surprised me, but nonetheless….SO JEALOUS lol
we need a SM town on the east coast lol, its so boring here!
Hope the girls have a blowout performance as always!!! i guess this exposure to europe will REALLY help our girls and SM to become more globally known/have a larger impact on music
really great opportunity for our ladies
should be exciting and amajjang!!!
SOSHI FIGHTING!!!
I can’t believe they are actually coming to Europe! 😀 I wish I could go, but I don’t think it’s possible 😦 But I’m still excited. Maybe they’ll conquer the rest of Europe too 😉
OMO!! Wish they could come to the UK…But since I love SHINee soo much…I’m defo gonna try go France <3!
