Yesterday, SNSD attended a “Surprise Blood Drive Event” organized by KBS.
Yoona, Tiffany, Taeyeon, Yuri, Hyoyeon and Sunny were on deck at the KBS Shin-Gwan TV Hall to help raise awareness for blood stock shortages across Korea.
Prior to the event the following was posted on the Girls’ Generation Official Facebook page:

By “taking part in and supporting” the event, the girls’ remained true to their word as they also donated blood on the day. Although this wouldn’t be the first time, as the members, as well as their fans, have donated blood in the past for various charitable causes.
Lucky fans who donated blood during this blood drive however, were able to meet the girls’ and receive autographed goodies:
Fany, Hyo and Yoong also paid a visit to a young patient at Korea University Ansan Hospital:

Tidbit: There is actually a blood shortage all over the world, so why not follow in the girls’ footsteps and volunteer to donate blood in your own country 🙂
bloody pink heart pumps out bloody pink blood , sone and soshi spread their love with blood
…( lol kkokkoma leader sorry underage kid cant donate …lol )
I wish I could go there and donated my blood if I don’t have blood phobia, hahahaha…
Did they actually donated their blood..??
im there.. but the officcer kick us out(the viewers ) and only let the participants enjoy the event.. aaaa.. its so sick there.. but its okay since i get to see the girls live in front of my eyes! they even walk a metre before me!! i almost die up there because of hapiness shahhahaa
your so lucky you able to see them….
yes they donate their blood one by one, hahaha. sunny and yuri is so skinny omG~
When I saw the term “surprise blood drive”… I thought of Dracula.
Did the girls really donate blood? Are the shorties really over 45kg? Do any of the girls not named Jessica really get over 4 hours of sleep on a typical night?
*recalls the last time I had an IV used on me in the hospital*
*remembers the discomfort experience*
*shivers*
Regardless of that, I’m very much willing to donate some blood. To say I’d do it for SNSD might be a bit too much, but at least they’ve inspired to help out those in need. =)
How I wish they’ll do the same thing when they come to Singapore next year ;).
I’m almost certain our Singapore National Blood Bank will have their hands full coping with the influx of donors (both SONEs and casual fans) on that day. The blood needs of our Singapore hospitals will be adequately fulfilled then 😀 !
I’m a regular blood donor, by the way, having donated 56 times to date.
Anyway, lucky K-SONEs indeed to have such random motivation (and fan freebies 🙂 !) to persuade them to give a part of themselves (literally) to help others in need.
😀
Taeyeon’s reaction to the guy screaming out KIM TAEEEYEOOON!!!!! is brilliant.
i’m so happy they’re taking a part in a world health advocacy! 😀 i really wish i could donate blood to help as well, just turned 16 this year!
i wish they would come to the Philippines this year D:
but either way, I’m still gonna try my best to help donate! WOOH! =))
Oh my gosh, HyoYeon looks like a fricking goddess ♥
yes,I totally agree with you! Although she is not my bias, but I have to admit that she is so gorgeous!!!
I swear I won’t even feel the needle because I would be so overwhelmed by the presence of Soshi and their warm smiles. Take my blood please!
OMG they look so pretty especially Hyo! She looks like the sun and really is standing out:)
Taengoo and Fanyy same ring in the same finger (?) cof cof cof taeny ♥ . . .
Kimm Taeyooonn !!! i love reaction of tae is so cute xD
What if i was suffering and needed to be infused with Sunny’s blood to heal?! Omg, i think i’m gonna faint like right Now!! O.O
I’ve never given blood before but if snsd says we need it then I must gain courage and donate >.<
Darn that needle
hyyoyeon is so beautiful here!
I concur! Hyoraeng looks pretty awesome.

Nice event! BTW is that a SNSD notebook? O.O i want one!!!
Omg! you can take all of my blood if you want XP
I am not over 45kg and not 16 years old yet 😦 they can’t take my blood
if snsd did donate blood themselves
i would like to know who has snsd blood flowing through them 😛
if could go there…is not for the blood but for snsd ^_^
does the girl donate some too? XD
SNSD, fighting! ^^
Hyo Hyo Hyoyeon!!
>you will never receive delicious soshi blood in your veins
feels bad, man
they did something really good by doing this.
some operations and injuries because of accidents needs a lot of blood.
specially when the patient is bleeding. of course there is the possibility to use a physiological NaCl solution to some extent but it can’t replace the need of blood.
