Well, not really. The 9 ladies were featured in the local Singapore teen magazine “Teenage” though.
Teenage, a local Singapore publication catering to Singapore’s teen population has dedicated the June 2011 issue to cover the K-Pop scene. The editor, Jazmin Kelly Six, was fortunate enough to be invited to cover the recent SBS Inkigayo Jeju Special, resulting in the cover story for this issue of the magazine. The trip there was made possible, courtesy of the “Visit Korea 2010-2012” committee, an initiative of the national tourism boards of Singapore and Korea.
In her editorial, Jazmin admitted to knowing “next-to-nothing” about K-Pop, and so felt that she could give an unbiased, neutral report on the whole event. Well, at the end of the whole experience, she readily admitted to being impressed by the sheer talent of all the K-Pop artistes that performed that day and is now a true convert to the K-Pop genre. Personally, I think the close contact with our 9 “angels” had alot to do with changing her opinion of K-Pop music ;).
More details (covering the Girls’ performance and subsequent interview) can be found in the following scans from the magazine. Enjoy !
By the way, the editor not only managed to “snag” a front row seat to the performance show, she also got passes to the artistes’ backstage tents. How lucky is that ?!!
Title tricked me even though I knew they weren’t there omg -.- It’s really nice to know about Global Generation \o/ lucky editor! I wish I can get the magazine lol let’s see if I can snag one hmm
First one to comment! ^_^
Yay singapore ftw! the girls look amazing ❤
daum not first XD
Damn i got scam by clicking the link from twitter.. thought it was real.. xD
after reading the title my heart literally stopped. after receiving the email notification about this post I RAN HOME TO GO ONLINE just to see what it was about and maybe hoping i could catch them if they were here. to my despair it was just a feature in a magazine… good one though..
man what the hell? come on US why dont you sell magazines like these!?
i mean ill spend 50 bucks on subscriptions for anything SNSD related!
-note to self- skype brother and tell him to buy one of these magazines for me.

im jealous to singapore sone wish they visit manila next time T_T
Hey! I didn’t think this article would make it on the site! Now that’s a surprise.
I’ll admit, I was like Jazmin Kelly Six, knowing “next-to-nothing” or “absolutely tiddly squat”, as I like to put it, haha. I am still now (although not as ignorant as before). I don’t find it a surprise that I can still retain my “unbiased” view thanks to a practical mindset, but it helps to get excited over the tiniest things that K-Pop idols do. It’s certainly beneficial to have a global aptitude (and a little omniscience) when it comes to appreciating both the old and new, unexceptional or unprecedented, in this world.
Anyway, enough talk ’bout me. Thanks for putting the article up!
How lucky of her to be clueless of everything AND still get FRONT SEATS ??
VERYYY LUCKY

Man…she is so lucky! knowing “next-to-nothing” about k pop but get to meet SNSD personally! Wish I could know her and tagged along…I was in Korea then but didn’t manage to register for that inkigayo session…eventually went to wait outside SM entertainment (like an idiot) for nothing instead -.-
