[Please answer 2009] The legendary queen is always Girls' Generation

• Debut: 2007-08-05
• Members: Taeyeon (leader), Sunny, Tiffany, Hyoyeon, Yuri, Sooyoung, Yuna, Seohyun
• Outgoing member: Jessica (left in 2014)

Flower-like beauty, explosive singing skills, and neat dance steps, climbed to the top to become a legendary Korean girl group and the queen of Hallyu.

Large-scale Korean groups were rare 10 years ago. SM Entertainment first launched a large-scale male group "SUPER JUNIOR" with 12 members (the number of people at the time of debut) in 2005. Two years later, it launched a large-scale women's group again, using the female version of SJ as a gimmick. , The original preparatory group was called "SUPER GIRLS", which was later Girls' Generation.

"So-and-so actress is a prospective member of Girls' Generation" will appear on news topics from time to time. Although some people are hot, they just became SM trainees and claim to have almost joined Girls' Generation, but there are also some people who are actually on the Internet. Some pre-debut group photos were leaked, and some even looked like concept photos taken before Girls' Generation's debut. It seems that they were indeed trained with Girls' Generation members, but they failed to debut together in the end.

Although "Girls' Generation" is indeed a miracle written by the members who debuted together, some people are indeed "SUPER GIRLS", the most famous is Soyeon who debuted with "T-ARA", "Co-education" debuted and participated in many talent shows "Xu Zhan".

Before Girls' Generation's debut, there was a little discussion on the Internet between the face Rune and one of the lead singers, Jessica. Rune is the representative of the SM family's "Xiaolu Xiang", with big watery eyes and fresh appearance, she is always a female star She is in the upper circle of the appearance rankings, and her Chinese pronunciation is very standard, and she has also passed the Chinese intermediate test. Korean-American Jessica has been a trainee at SM Entertainment for 7 years. Before NCT Johnny (9 years as a trainee), she was the trainee with the longest training period for SM before debuting.

The same Korean-American members also have Tiffany, Jessica grew up in San Francisco, and Tiffany grew up in Los Angeles. The two people whose birthdays differed by four months were born in the same hospital in the United States. When Tiffany first debuted, she only sang for 10 seconds. After a lot of hard work, she and the explosive leader Taeyeon, as well as members Jessica, Sunny, and Xu Xuan were collectively called the five leading singers of her youth. (Sunny, who was born in California, also has American citizenship, and is also the concubine of the founder of SM, Mr. Lee Soo Man)

In addition to Yuna's beauty and the strength of the five main singers, Yu Ri, who is called "Black Pearl Beauty" with healthy and beautiful skin, also has good singing skills. The members also include Hyoyeon, who is very talented in dancing, and Xiuying, who was an SM trainee when she was a child, and left the club to make her debut as a two-girl group in Japan. After the group disbanded, she returned to SM as a trainee again. Therefore, Xiuying's Japanese Speaks fluently.

Although it is now a legendary girl group with an unsurpassed status, it experienced the "Black Sea Incident" in the early days of its debut.

The youth members were only high school students when they first debuted, and their performance and attitude on the show may be "not as mature and polite as the public expects." Wrong, just a lot of words and deeds will be over-interpreted. Because of his young age and inexperience, he was unable to express his thoughts clearly on the show, or he did not consciously take it back when he reached a certain stage, and the effects of various shows were not properly exerted. And because SM Entertainment likes to promote new groups with the model of "senior and junior group activities together", the senior group fans think that you are a fan when you are young (SM may almost every group has been scolded by senior group fans like this XD) , which led to the dissatisfied fans of his group who used various disputes out of context to call on fans to boycott the young time.

When I was young, no matter participating in the platter, fans of his group would always turn off the hand lights when they were performing, and the auditorium was completely dark, which made the situation very embarrassing. gradually slowed down.

In 2009, when he was young, he released "GEE". The cute, lively and memorable songs and dances drove the imitation trend, and the bright tight-colored pants worn by the members in the MV were a must-have for young people at that time. In fact, when Captain Taeyeon heard "GEE" for the first time in order to oppose the song being the title song, she was so angry that she cried, but the song made Girls' Generation's popularity soar after its release, and it became the first Korean group in 2013. The MV has exceeded 100 million, so everyone often jokes that "As long as Taeyeon doesn't like the song, it will be popular." So far, including team and solo works, Girls' Generation has 10 MVs that exceed 100 million.

Girls' Generation, which became popular in Asia in 2009, released "Speak Your Wish" in the same year. The members wore military uniforms and showed off their legs. They once again conquered Asia with neat and distinctive dance steps. One of them was singing on the roof apron. The performance and the performance segment have hit a high rating, and it is still known as a legendary stage.

When the young man officially started his Asian tour in its heyday, the "Oh!" released the following year successfully attracted the attention of the whole of Asia. This album is also "the first Korean star album with a random photo card". So now everyone is begging Sam Taimin to bring their own natal photocards every day, changing/buying cards everywhere, and having the fun of collecting photocards. These things actually only happened after 2010. The SM who set this precedent is really always on everyone's side. Front.

He debuted in Japan when he was young, and his grades were also very good. He was invited to participate in many Japanese music festivals. He also participated in Japan's largest music event "Red and White Songs" with KARA the following year. The Korean girl group (the first is KARA).

I think SM Entertainment is smart in that although Girls' Generation has debuted in Japan and the United States, the agency has not put all the eggs in the same basket, especially the popularity of Korea must be retained. The Wonder Girls and KARA in the same period are unfortunately because when they attacked overseas markets, they were too focused on their activities in the United States and Japan. When they returned to China, Girls' Generation had already reached the top. Otherwise, these three girl groups that debuted in 2007 will be together around 2009. , Ushering in its heyday in South Korea, strength and popularity were comparable to each other back then.

Girls' Generation's "I GOT A BOY" in 2013 brought them to the world. It is a rare challenge to hip-hop style, but it still retains the lively and cuteness of childhood. The first time I heard this song, I felt like it was pieced together from different songs. It danced tones before and after, but the more I listened, the more addictive it became, and the powerful choreography was quite attractive.

Girls' Generation began to receive a lot of attention from European and American media, and "I GOT A BOY" also won the best MV of the year at the "Youtube Music Awards" where many international superstars were shortlisted.

When the global popularity was very high, "Mr. Mr.", released in 2014, was also nominated as the only song of the year by "Time" magazine in Asia. The biggest incident since the formation of the army is the sudden withdrawal of the popular lead singer Jessica with a considerable amount of singing weight!

When they were young, the team leader Taeyeon and Jessica sang the most, and the harmony of the two was the most beautiful sound in the hearts of all sones. Jessica, Taeyeon, and Rune were the three most popular members of the team. On September 30, 2014, on the day Girls' Generation was going to perform in China, Jessica suddenly took a step ahead of the company and posted on her personal community account that she was told by the company and other members that she was no longer a member of the youth group. was forced to retire.

Later, SM Entertainment also officially released a statement, saying that because Jessica founded her personal fashion brand "Blanc & Eclare", her personal career was in conflict with the group.

There are discrepancies in the statements of the two parties. There have been rumors that various members are incompatible/grabbing personal resources, Jessica is being excluded/suspected to perform, such as being unprofessional. The interactive clips in the past have been amplified and interpreted, intensifying the conflict between the fans of Jessica and other members.

Although Jessica is not like other people who cancel the contract by themselves and SM, the largest entertainment company in South Korea, but the two sides advocated opposite reasons for leaving the group, which caused SM Entertainment to ignore the love of her sister F(x) Krystal who was still in the company a few years ago ( At least SM is still good to my sister. Although the function was released, there are a lot of personal acting resources), exhausted everything to block Jessica's personal activities, released a personal album and couldn't play songs, and the scheduled radio itinerary was temporarily cancelled, etc.

In recent years, SM's attitude has softened a lot. Jessica has finally made a brief appearance on Korean TV shows. Artists under SM Entertainment will also wear the fashion brands she founded. SM also agreed that Jessica and Krystal will co-produce the reality show "Jessica & Krystal". "second season.

Even if Jessica can't play songs, her solo album is still famous on the female solo charts after her solo flight, and she has even become a candidate for music playback (in fact, fans know that even if she does get one, she should be rubbed off by SM), In particular, her personal fashion career has developed quite well. She often attends international fashion occasions. She was once invited to attend the Cannes Film Festival. Although she was banned in South Korea, she seems to stand on a different level overseas.

Jessica has also branched into writing in recent years, releasing a novel "Shine" featuring a Korean idol trainee as the protagonist. It has been released in various languages in many countries, and even signed a contract with foreign film and television industries before its release, and will leap to the screen with a live-action version. The story of trainees fighting for their debut in the novel was questioned by the outside world for insinuating that the members excluded her when she was young. In fact, except for the day she quit the group, she said that she was quit by the company and members. She "actively" advanced her teammates, and every time she faced the question from the media, she did not evade it. She thanked her for everything she brought to her, and wished the group a smooth development.

Even if Jessica leaves the group, it is still a fact that she debuted as an idol on 2007/8/5, but she always leaves 8/5 to Girls' Generation, never celebrates in a high-profile manner, and deliberately delays the release of the album commemorating the 10th anniversary of her debut.

If both sides had taken a step back at that time and didn't make such an ugly scene of leaving the group, maybe there would not be so many conflicts. It's just that the company wants to save face, and Jessica's own uncompromising personality has caused such a situation. Fortunately, both sides have had good development with Jessica when they were young.

Returning to the group itself when they were young, the members continued their activities in the form of 8 members. In 2015, they still achieved the "All Kill" achievement on the major Korean music charts with "Party", and the global popularity is still high. The individual activities of the members have also been well received. The leader, Taeyeon, has the reputation of "faithful and listened to Taeyeon" and is the best female soloist from a Korean group.

Shortly after Girls' Generation released their 10th anniversary album in 2017, Tiffany, Soo Young, and Seo Hyun ended their contracts with SM, and the five members of Taeyeon, Sunny, Hyoyeon, Yuri, and Yuna who are still in SM, formed the second one the following year. The team "Girls' Generation-Oh! GG" debuted (the first team was "Girls' Generation-TTS" composed of Taeyeon, Tiffany, and Seo Hyun in 2012).

There have been no group activities in Shao Shi in the past few years, but the company still focuses on "guarding the 8-person Shao Shi", and members often get together to celebrate birthdays and debut anniversaries.

In the past few years of personal activities, the leader Taeyeon's solo popularity has continued to be hot; Sunny is a frequent visitor to variety shows with his excellent sense of variety and eloquence; Tiffany has also released personal English works, made personal tours, and also starred in the musical "Chicago" in South Korea. ; Hyoyeon shuttles through many music festivals as a DJ; Yuri, Sooyoung, Yoon-e, and Seohyun are active in acting.

Girls' Generation, whether it's getting together or doing their own activities, including Jessica who has left the group, has a very good development~

After going through various crises, the young boy who was boycotted by various households in the Black Sea at the dream concert later became the only girl group that could finalize the dream concert (although there will be some people who are sour SM and have "finale disease", relying on their company's large size, It is required that its own artists must be the finale), but Girls' Generation has indeed written many miracles for the history of kpop, and it is a legendary girl group that is difficult to surpass!

please answer 2009

Please read the instruction manual carefully

• The years of debut and release of the singers reviewed are about 2003-2012, mainly the second-generation groups, there may be solos, and the so-called 2.5th generation to the beginning of the 3rd generation may appear blurred.
• 2️Most of the works after 2009, I also entered the kpop pit in 2009, and the Korean wave began to spread to the whole Asia and the world around 2009, so I chose "Please answer 2009 Reply 2009" as the project name.
• A plan that is quite selfish, just like Cheng Shiyuan in 1997 has selfishness towards HOT. I will post a lot of groups I like, and some groups may not be posted at all. Don't take it seriously.
