I was putting together some data on SNSD’s sales so far in 2013 since we passed the half-year mark a while ago, but I realised that some fans might not understand the true meaning of the data in terms of what it really means for SNSD. So I’ve ended up with a chunk of text about SNSD’s 2013 performance thus far, how it compares to their previous years, as well as some background info on how the Korean entertainment industry works. This might be a boring read for some of you…sorry!

SNSD in a shower, literally. [updated]

Remember when the Love&Girls music video came out and SNSD were in a boat yard with 1000 fans doing the “Shampoo Dance” where they act like they’re in a shower? The girls recently had a Love&Girls flashmob event in Japan for Universal Studios Japan where there was fans, dancing, and a literal shower.

The girls were hit with some unfortunate weather during the event, the skies deigning to open up and pour some rain, but like the true professionals they are it didn’t deter them or the fans one bit. It was a fun (albeit chaotic) event, everybody had a good time, and omg look at Jessica just refusing to get wet. The rain cannot touch Jesusca Jung.

(updated with full song)

Shoujo Jidai’s LOVE&GIRLS single recently hit shelves (everybody go buy it [x][x]), with the regular edition of the release including the B-side track “Lingua Franca“. Lingua Franca is a term to describe a language that can be used for communication between people who do not have the same mother-tongue. Eg, SNSD and us international fans. Think, “unifying language” or “universal language”.

It’s a fresh, mid-tempo, sweet-on-the-ears pop track and is absolutely lovely.

Shoujo Jidai at the 62nd Kōhaku Uta Gassen

As previously reported, the ladies of Shoujo Jidai/ Girl’s Generation were invited to perform at Japan’s  prestigious New Year’s Eve music festival, the ‘Kōhaku Uta Gassen‘. The event took place last night/year :P, where Shoujo jidai performed their Japanese debut single, GENIE.

With ‘Kōhaku Uta Gassen’ literally meaning ‘Red and White Song battle‘, the format of the show obviously followed the format of a ‘Red Team VS White Team’ battle. Ladies were Red (akagumi), Gents were White (shirogumi) …. and the winner of the 62nd Kōhaku Uta Gassen was… *drumroll* THE RED TEAM! This was the first win for the Red team in 6 years… i’m sure Tiffany’s “Akagumi… Put it back on!!” helped. 🙂

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
