With the SNSD’s rapidly growing popularity worldwide, from Asia to South America to North America to Europe, the girls have gotten many foreigners’ interest. In particular, Tyler Brûlé from the UK (United Kingdom), whom is a well-known Canadian-born journalist, editor-in-chief of ‘Monocole’, entrepeneur, magazine publisher, and columnist, recently published about the girls on UK’s ‘Financial Times‘.
On January 7th, his “The Secrets of My Brilliant Korea” column in UK’s ‘Financial Times’ talked about his trip to Seoul, Korea and his analysis of considerable Korean cultural exports. In addition, he included a list of ‘the top 10 Korean cultural contents having a very high possibility of success if they were to be exported out to foreign countries’ in the trendsetter column of the ‘Financial Times’ magazine.

Although last year was a successful year for the girls as they brought in the most profits for SM Entertainment and came on top for almost everything including music charts, best artist of the year, the girl group blessed with the most awards, and most wanted product endorsers, ironically, SNSD also came in No.1 for artistes who incurred the highest losses due to piracy in 2010 according to an investigation.

More juicy scenes from the soon to be released music video of ‘Visual Dreams’!
The episode of tonight’s KBS Entertainment Weekly revealed small amounts of behind the scene footages of the ‘Visual Dreams’ MV and also contained a short interview with the girls.
During the interview the members chose the winners of three different awards amongst themselves: award for the honor student, member with the best appetite and member who surprises others with unexpected behaviour.
Check out the video to see who the winners were and also find out Sooyoung’s shocking IQ test results when she “used a smart phone [IQ] application” a while ago..

Whoever doubted SNSD could sell 100,00 copies of their Korean repackage album Hoot in Japan in less than a month is in trouble trouble trouble now!!
The chart reveals all…
translation from left to right: certification – gold; title – HOOT; artist – SNSD; release date – December 22nd, 2010; label – Universal Music
Congratulations to the girls for another spectacular achievement!! And if you think these results are amazing, just wait until they release their first full Japanese album 😀 In addition to gold the other certifications in the Western Album category include platinum and double platinum. If the success of Hoot is any indication, I foresee RIAJ having to come up with a new certification that goes beyond nine double platinum, just for SNSD. I think ‘Pastel Rose (Quartz)’ might do them justice. What do you guys think?
*Psst…Pastel Rose Pink is the official fan club color ^^
