– WARNING!! – Image heavy
One typical fine day at SoShiDorm, with only hours left before Tiffany’s Birthday…~
Hyoyeon : Joohyun-ah what are you doing? kekeke
Seohyun : Oh this … Mentor SooMan Sajang-nim told me to prepare food for a very special event this week! (while cutting radish)
Yuri : (concentrating all by herself) Talking about Sajang-nim …. this morning he gave me this riddle to solve… “What dies when it’s alive and is alive when it dies?” He said the hint is this week’s special event! Aishhhhhh I’ve been concentrating on this all day *squeals*
Tiffany : (thinking to herself) I wonder if they were talking about my birthday tomorrow … and those kimbap looks nice!!
Meanwhile…
Yoona : kekekekekekekkekekek >=]
Later that night, Tiffany couldn’t sleep thinking about ‘the event’
Tiffany : Could it be that BabySeo was preparing for the birthday banquet… And that riddle… The hint is a special event this week? … my birthday…. [! ! !] …. kekekeke~
Tiffany sneaks out quietly … what are you up to Tiffany?
Hyoyeon spots Tiffany and wonders what she is doing?
Of course … Hyoyeon sneaks out … quietly…
Hyoyeon : Ah Ma Gad! What is she doing with a sword in the middle of the night?!! … I must wake the others up!
Hyoyeon, Yuri and Taeyeon gathered to stop Tiffany!
Yuri : YAAAAA!! What are you doing?! Have you gone crazy?!
Taeyeon : I LUB U
Hyoyeon : Tiffany! Life is more beautiful that you thought!
Tiffany : Eh? What? Haha … What are you guys talking about? Let me explain! …
(SFX) Dudung~ (changed into hanbok clothes)
Tiffany : I was actually trying to solve the riddle and make sure that the event is for my birthday party… Since the hint is a special event this week, my birthday, which is on August 1st…
(SFX) Dudung~
Tiffany : I believe that Seohyun unnie were preparing for my birthday party, and so I wanted to try the cake first, that’s why I took the sword to cut the cake … This also answers the riddle, “What dies when it’s alive and is alive when it dies?” … It’s “Birthday Cake!!”
Ja-Jaang!~
Tiffany : ”It dies when it is lit (alive) as the wax melts and it is alive when the fire dies.” Am I right?? Uh huh … No need to be amazed, I’ve been thinking about it all night-long …
Yuri : Ooh! … That’s right! It’s passed 12AM, so today is your birthday!! Happy Birthday Tiffany unnie! … I’m sorry I forgot! … But that isn’t the answer … eottoeohke!!
Taeyeon : Ahahaha! … Seohyun wasn’t preparing for your birthday party! It was for our 5th Anniversary Party that is also this week! Ahahhahaaha (monster laugh) But what’s with the clothes!!! So funny ahahaahhahha!
Hyoyeon : This (dying of laughter) is (falls over while laughing) so (rolls on the floor) speechless!! Hahaahaaahahhah
Suddenly, Lee Soo Man jumps out the closet!
SM : Aigoo! Kids, why so noisy? Are you talking about me? Aaah … talking about the riddle?? The answer is “Music”!
“In order to make a live (alive) you have to make an all-kill song (dies), and it dies (all-kill) when the music is accepted by fans (alive)“
Also, your outfits look nice! We should use it as a concept for your Anniversary party!
Tiffany: What about my birthday?! Bring back my youth! … heol~
Later that week, after the 5th anniversary party ended …
Tiffany : Unnies … Why did you guys put candles on the toilet?
Hyoyeon : Coz you said you wanted to have a Birthday Potty! Let the Potty start!!! Kekekeke (drunk~)
________________________________________________________________________________________
Born-to-be-goddesses, 9 Divine Angels, the legend that will echo throughout history, So Nuyh Shi Dae. What is it that brought Sones together to dedicate their lives for these ‘strangers’? What is so special that SoShi has that every other groups or artists don’t have?
“You’ll never get to meet them” they say, “They won’t take notice of you” they say, “They won’t even remember your name” they say. Criticism after criticism, people will keep questioning Sones why they follow a group called Girls’ Generation.
No matter how many times Sones are bashed, No matter how many times Sones are criticized, No matter how many times Sones are asked, they will always give the answer, “Because I choose to”.
5 years ago, when no one even knew what Girls’ Generation is, there were 9 girls. 9 normal girls who never even thought they would mark history as deep as it is now. They fought through black water, battling whatever came upon them. No matter what the situation, they continued forward along the path of fame without looking back as they knew that one day they will breakthrough and make number 1.
Through times they endured pain, sacrificed things that many cannot, much sadness and tears were shredded. But that did not stop them as the links between their hearts bought them closer. They were more than co-workers and exceeded the limit of best friends. Like a blood bound family, they support each other and lean on each other’s shoulders. Each of them becomes the support that holds the bridge and if the bridge falls, amends are made stronger and tougher than before. The most important factor is that they complete each other. If just one support is missing from under the bridge, it will become weaker and eventually collapse. With this bond, they manage to turn those tears of sadness into tears of joy.
A Deer once said, “Happiness is doubled when you share them together and sadness is halved when you share them together”.
For 5 years, our girls have been together and kept going through whatever they encountered. Whether it be difficulties or happiness, they have overcome and shared it together.
The importance of our girls’ success is base on teamwork. If there is no teamwork or closeness in Girls’ Generation, if any of the members were selfish, they would not be as successful as they are right now. All 9 members love each other. They are happy just being together as a group and because of that, this is the SNSD that exists in the world right now. If one member is self-centred and not caring, there would be many problems among each of them. But our girls’ are both caring and loving, and as a result, success is delivered and can be witnessed today.
Sleep is sacrificed so that they can be the first to view their faces on screen. Money is spent even if a Sone is broke just to see their faces for a couple of hours. Support is given even if the inevitable will happen. But nonetheless, it is still their dreams to see them live on stage, however it is almost impossible for anyone to visit every city or town of every country, let alone an artist. But even so, Sones will continue to wait, hoping that one day they will see a sight that will never be forgotten.
Sones swore to the words that will keep the 9 together forever into the future, no matter what happens. Right Now.. Tomorrow… Forever… A few simple words that has great effect. It is because of these words that no matter what comes upon these girls, a wish will always be with them, lingering in the background. No matter how many times you girls’ thank us, we will not accept it… as it is us who should be saying the words “Thank You”.
Happy 5th Anniversary SNSD, may you last forever! And as always,

Lengthy letter in

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand the 5th of August has arrived.
Happy 5th Anniversary!
Curious thing, admiration; I can testify for it’s vagueness, for I have only just been a fan for a few months and yet, I feel the same level of pride and bliss for their accomplishments in comparison to those who have been with them for 5 years.
Truth be told, the first time i heard of the Hallyu wave reaching the shores of my native land, I detested every single entity of it with extreme prejudice, including the ones I revere to now, 수녀시대.
I remember my initial reaction to hearing that K-pop’s popularity escalates in a high pace: “What THE F***?! You people understand nothing from their music! You don’t listen to music with your eyes, all of these artists rely on two things: banging face and bodies.”
After weeks have passed of this news, this certain TV program that supposedly shows international music videos decided to focus on one MV source, K-pop. Without hesitation, I quickly changed the channel and went back after a few minutes. Then lo and behold, the upcoming MV is still k-pop; but then, my curiosity felt that it should be satisfied. So I waited for this particular MV to start, and then it started..
They call themselves Girls’ Generation.
A bunch of gorgeous looking ladies started appearing by threes, confirming my initial thought that they rely heavily on looks. But as a man, even with eyes rolling from dissatisfaction, I couldn’t simply look away. Then..
*Screen fades black*
♫♪ ♪♪ ♫
Beats started jumping in unison and gradually became louder.
♫♪ ♪♪ ♫
A huge light show for a background resembling that of a heart appeared, accompanied by silhouettes of women in a line.
♫♪ ♪♫
“That’s right. Come on.”
♪♪ ♫♫
Then this lady in a white military uniform started singing and the other 8 ladies started to dance; every one of them eventually sang whilst dancing.
The MV ended.
“Eh. It’s okay for a song, still purely eye candy.”
I admittedly liked the song, but due to the foreign language I am yet capable of understanding and initial distaste, I paid no mind to it; I didn’t looked it up, it didn’t sparked an interest, I buried it.
I felt something linger in my head. I ignored it.
Months have passed with new MVs of several k-pop artists, including those of Girls’ Generation’s. They faintly call my attention. I reluctantly watched these MVs of theirs to have an open mind to it, to give it a chance, to give them a chance. Watching them over and over again, while having that unknown lingering feeling I had, I still gave the same expression I had the first time I saw them: raising both shoulders accompanied with an “Eh.”
Years passed but my distaste did not and my interest never grew.
One faithful night, 22nd of March 2012, my cousin suggested a particular song. Time Machine. He gave promising comments on the song, but when he said it was from Girls’ Generation, I became skeptical.
As an ever hungry entity, my curiosity started complaining again and wanted to be satisfied.
I complied. I looked the song up, listened, and to my surprise, I wasn’t complaining and enjoyed the whole thing.
Interest sparked in me and like an electricity-powered machine, that’s all it took for me to look up Girls’ Generation.
The interest in me had spread like a virus. I checked every detail about them, most especially that of this woman named Sunny.
I looked up their history; how they started.
Every info I read, every accomplishment I saw, every song I heard, my interest grew and grew until my interest became astonishment for them.
I started learning 한국어.
I started calling them 소녀시대.
I looked upon their misdoings and simply smiled, knowing that they wouldn’t ignore it and they would improve themselves around it.
I am filled with bliss every time they set a milestone.
I am filled with anxiety and concern every time something unfortunate happens to them.
In my thoughts they linger. In my unconscious mind you linger.
I hope one day, I would be able to prove myself worthy as one of the knightly SONEs; to take up arms against those who oppose, to raise my shield and offer protection, to carry the flag that bear the colors of white and pink, and to uphold, with unwavering loyalty, the binding phrases:
“지금은, 수녀시대.”
“앞으로도, 수녀시대.”
“영원히, 수녀시데.”
쑨규씨! 수녀시대’s “pillar of support”, be sure to support yourself as well.
I regret allowing 4 years to pass before I eventually take heed of this lingering feeling I had then.
Thank you for unknowingly being an inspiration for me, for giving me courage, and being the essence of goodness in me.
Happy 5th anniversary, SNSD!!!
We Sone love you and God bless you 9 girls as always!!!
It’s a fact that the chances of actually meeting and talking with Girl’s Generation face-to-face are probably 1 in 1,000,000,000. But of course that would not stop us SONEs from dreaming of the impossible. If we work hard at what we do now and never stop dreaming of the impossible, then maybe, just maybe, we might be able to reach that one very rare chance that everyone is searching throughout their Soshified lives.
So Happy 5th Anniversary to our beloved Girls’ Generation as well as fellow SONEs and never let go of that dream we have inside.
Already 5 years !! Damn i miss the 2 first, but still the last 3 years are the most beautiful of my life !
Thank you Taeyeon, Jessica, Sunny, Tiffany, Hyoyeon, Yuri, Sooyoung, Yoona and Seohyun.
I never get the chance to meet *sadness*, and maybe I will never *more sadness*, but with your only existence you change my life.
What you have done to me, and i’m sure to lot more of sones, can only be express with few words of great power:
We love you,
Thank you to be who you are,
Do not change, stay our little stars,
Thank you.
Happy 5th anniversary ! soshibond will keep snsd together forever !! Thank you for bringing us sone hapiness through hard time !!!! 🙂 Fighting ~
From belgium , a happy 5th anniversary , thank you for the past , we look forward to the future..
I may not be good with words..but i just want to say, thank you for everything you girls have given me.. Thank you for existing in this world. Thank you for popping up in that MTV show where i first laid my eyes on you. Thank you for all the good times you gave me when i had my bad & lonely times. Thank you for giving me faith and something to rely on when i had none. Thank you for being my everyday friends when my real everyday friends were hard on just being there for me. Thank you for cheering me up when i felt down. Thank you for your support when i felt like giving up. Thank you for being such an awesome role models. Thank you for giving me songs that i could relate to and gave me strength just be listening to it. Thank you for being pretty, outside and inside, thus became my ideal women. Thank you for being my light when i couldn’t see anything bright. Thank you for being my guardian angels when i felt scared and lost. Thank you for all the motivations and inspirations. Thank you for turning me into a better person. Thank you for making my life complete.
Thank you for being SNSD.
I may not support you,or know you,from the start. And that is my biggest regret. But i promise i will be with you until the end. A SONE forever. My blood is pink and i breath SNSD. I’m happier since the moment i met you 9 girls.
I pray for your good fortune and health, and i hope that you will always and forever be the nine amazing girls you are. We hope that you will continue to walk towards your bright futures as you teach and motivate us through every little word and action. We hope that in the years to come, SNSD will continue to convey your love to us so that we can build towards a better tomorrow.
You girls are our (SONEs’) hope. You may not read this message that i wrote from the bottom of my heart, but i swear, i love you noonas more than you can imagine.

Happy 5th anniversary!!
I have known SNSD for less than one year, but I feel so privileged even to have followed them for that long. Never before has any musical artist touched me in so many ways before, bringing cheer into otherwise gloomy or boring times.
True, I do not know any of them. Yet they feel so close to me; I can relate to them and look up to them in so many ways.
All I can say is a big thank you and congratulations to the girls for having maintained and developed their group for this long, and for doing so many things which make me feel thankful for their existence. 🙂
Here’s wishing all the girls the very best of luck for their remaining years to come!
Jigeumeun, So Nyeo Shi Dae!!!
Oh, and great job by Flapjacks. Really well done and well said.
I could not have said it better myself. I too have only known SoShi for less than a year and they have touched my soul like nothing hever has or nothing ever will again. I love SNSD, truely, with all that I am.
Did anyone else almost die of laughter after seeing that pic of Tae sleeping surrounded by peas? 😀 haha great post! Happy 5 years to my idols and may many more years come! :’)
Thank you SoShi for the love that you give to us Sone, and I regretted why I didn’t met you (SoShi) earlier.
The first meeting with you is because Time Machine MV (and I really really wish I got a time machine, so I can be back in 2007 and start loving you girls ever since that time T_T)
The song that make me fall in love with you is Gee, and the song that make my spirits flying up high is The Boys.. Thanks to SoShi, I’ve been able to make my life meaningful, I have a goal that I want to achieve (meet up with you, girls and talk with you :P) and just like The Boys lyrics.. (SoShi) bring me out !!!! Fighting !!!!
being one of SoNE maybe is one of my biggest thing..
follow and cheer up the girls maybe is one of my biggest concern..
without noticeably 5 years pass, from the cute 9 girls, become 9 mature elegant women..
girls, your my dream, because of you i decided my dream..
thank you so much for show me that dream, i will still, and keep cheer you more and more, right now, tomorrow, and forever..
happy anniversary girls..
let’s celebrate it together again next year, next year, next year and so on..
