Now, how random can it get ? In a recent health survey done by Jamsil S-Neurosurgery clinic on which girl group was most successful in maintaining their health while performing, thus avoiding shoulder injuries, the results were interesting to note.
In the week-long survey, survey participants were asked “Among girl groups that have outstanding choreography, who do you believe are ‘Shoulder Girls’ who take good care of themselves to avoid injury?”. Girls’ Generation won with a clear majority of 52.2% and were hailed as the best “Shoulder Girls”. They were followed by Orange Caramel with 14.2%, Sistar with 12.5% and T-ara with 11.1%.
Dr. Yang Seungmin, resident head of Jamsil S-Neurosurgery clinic, stated that a lot of idol pop groups face shoulder and back related injuries due to the rigorous choreography required in their stage performances. A fair number of them actually suffer from Rotator cuff tendinitis (aka Shoulder Impingement Syndrome), an inflammation of the tendons of the shoulder.
The survey participants thus selected girl pop groups whom they felt were able to give of their best during their performances, without, most importantly, resultant injury to themselves.
It is thus not surprising that our 9 ladies were able to top the survey. Their consistent adherence to a regular exercise regime, good nutritional habits (no doubt aided by Seobaby’s constant nagging to eat healthy ;)) and dedication to give the best that they can to their fans ensures a very healthy group of earthly angels :D.
(Disclaimer: In truth, not all the 9 has escaped “major injury” thus far in their career. Our dear Dilfany (Tiffany) has suffered her fair share of fractures, sprains and ligament tears, the latest being her knee injury late last year. However, I personally believe that, having 8 other “guardian angels” watching over her, she’ll be fine in the long run.)
I dont’t know about you, but those look like Strong shoulders to me ;).

yeah yeah….i never heard of any injuries by SNSD
except for tiffany….
keep it up! XD
our maknae is surely SNSD’s nurse….
SNSD, fighting! ^^
loveliest and prettiest guardians angels you’ll ever see! <3o<
and as The Mushroom would say "God Bless You"
LOL at the disclaimer XD
I would have thought that, considering the size of the heels they wear, there would be more of a chance of leg injuries than shoulder ones?? At least it would explain why Tiffany has had so many leg injuries.
Anyway… I think the other girls have had just as many falls & accidents as Tiff, but unfortunately, she seems to be more unlucky when it comes to the outcome.
yeap.. they’re strong and reliable.. the can just rely on any other 8 when something goes wrong.. 🙂
Loved the disclaimer Kenneth 🙂
So true of Dilfany, always hurting herself one way or the other (tripping down stairs hah), but yep the love and support of her soshi sisters helps her get back onto her feet (no pun intended) in no time!
In the first picture Hyoyeon’s face looks a lot like Taeyang.. I dunno. She’s doing his smile. xD
As long as they stay on the stage. Take care Soo Young. Have a long and healthy life; physically, emotionally and mentally!
lololol with Seohyun noona? omg, of COURSE our ladies will be the healthiest girl group out there!
“If you eat unhealthy, it will accumulate, and you will die” XD ahahahaha I LOVE YOU SEOHYUN NOONA
wow, more than half of ALL the votes, over 50%, thats how we do it SoShi style! yeaaaahhhh
And overall, I think our ladies really do stand out, they seem to always be much more health conscious than any other girls groups. They have always been eating right, balanced diets and nutrition, exercising daily, never showing fatigue or laziness, but rather try to show energy and motivation at all times. They always always work hard, 100% for the fans, for SM, and for themselves, which is what makes SoShi so special!!!
We must start a worldwide initiative to prevent any and all injuries to our girls, but in particular, TIFFANY NOONA!!!! haha
She has been injured many times :(, and it is saddening for fans and herself to see our beloved Mushroom out of action and injured.
SOSHI FIGHTING!!! May you always be in good health!!!
Just found out that SNSD is not only pretty, sexy, great dancers, and great singers.. but they are also HEALTHY! Gosh they’re so perfect! LOVING SOSHI!
