No! No! No!
5 days waiting = forever
and now they postpone it and it’s like waiting….forever+100days
Aigoo… :( But we will wait for them :)
What I hate more – their “worldwide release” = USA + East Asia. That’s worldwide for them??? I want to buy the CD and I will have to buy it on ebay – AGAIN!
I thought this wasn’t true. :( Omaygad, this sucks. But I hope the sales will be great! Both in Korea and US. I can’t wait!! <3 And I also hope they'll include some English songs in the album. ♥
OMFG OMG OMG Oh my Gee, an english album!!!!
While I can’t wait for the new album to come out, I do want the girls to get as much rest as they can since they’ve been working non-stop around the clock with the tours and all. TBH I can wait for a year if it means a healthier happier soshi.
ugh delayed :( but however long it is, i’ll be waiting then buy both albums, korean and us version!:D
ah, i hate this -_- SM always postponed soshi comeback ._.
they’re killing down the hype… it has been a month since the delay (in September pushed back to October) and now they are pushing it back… i am not as hyped and excited as i was a month ago. at the very least, the album better be GREAT.
International Sones, let’s make history with the US album!!!!!!!
i’m not liking the idea, but hey, it’s up to the girls, but…really T__T, why postponed now, i’ve waited for quite a long tim, and the teaser is tesing me hard @@
I can wait, despite the fact that I can’t be calm down!
postponement means more time to rest and more time to prepare for a greater comeback.. ^__^ lets just see the goodness in everything that will happen.. ^___^ No matter how long the wait we all know that we are going to be their when that happens. Lets just wait patiently for their comeback. I myself couldn’t wait for their album but then again, I love these girls with all my heart so therefore I can wait no matter how long it takes.. ^___^
I’ve read somewhere that it’s gonna postpone for 2-3 week more
*sigh* i need to wait longer -_- but Patience is a virtue :D
*sigh* -_-
for the sake of ‘having a worldwide release’, we have to wait again -_-
btw, would indonesia be inclued in their worldwide release?? ^0^
hope so,,,
I feel empty again :(( When would the actual album release and comeback be? I feel Soshi deprived :(( But anyways, whatever is best should just continue!! Soshi Hwaiting!
Ahhhh I can’t wait! I hope we don ‘t have to wait too long, but I’m definitely going to buy their US album :]!
So the rumors circulating are true, eh? At first I didn’t want to believe it seeing that the teasers are finally out. But, oh well, I don’t mind the extra wait. I’ll still support the Girls and The Boys. :))
i seriously cannot wait! if they release an album in english too, my life will be completeee <3
So excited…
Can’t wait…
SNSD jjaang!!!
So 2 albums? But is the US album just english songs of the korean one? or new songs?
i can’t wait T_T
hmm…. I guess its amazing that they’re coming out with a “US” album. I hope that means english and I hope that means that it’ll come out in Canada as well. Cuz if they do a tour in the US they gotta come to Canada.
But I really want “The Boys” to come out as soon as possible. I can’t wait any longer than I have to.
Btw its the album that’s delayed not the release of the single. right?
Oh yes, they must come to Canada!
I wish they have much success with the US album. This is a new and tougher venture for our girls so all Sones should put more effort in giving them strength! SNSD hwaiting!
I’M **BEYOND** EXCITED! I don’t think there was a happier moment in my SoShiful life….
OMFG, im so getting both albums!
