 1. Girls’ Generation on Russian Television

It really is becoming a Global Generation.  MTV in Russia featured Girls’ Generation in one of their television shows this week.  Clips from the “Gee” music video are shown as well as footage from their live tour.  Hallyu is expanding rapidly, and it seems these nine girls are leading the charge.  Soon Girls’ Generation will be a household name around the world.

2. Teaser for KBS show “Big Brothers” Featuring Girls’ Generation

As previously reported, Girls’ Generation members Taeyeon, Tiffany, Yuri and Seohyun will appear on the new KBS show “Big Brothers”.  A teaser video was released showing clips from the show.  It looks like the interview will be quite deep and meaningful with Seohyun even shedding tears at one point.  Look forward to the broadcast on September 21st.

1. New e-ma Product with Girls’ Generation

A new e-ma throat candy product, “Miracle Change”, has been released in Japan and includes Girls’ Generation in its displays.  The girls look cute in black and white mini dresses on the display.  The new e-ma candies will surely fly off the shelves with that kind of advertising.

2. New Goobne Chicken Posters

Starting September 27th, Goobne Chicken will be offering new posters featuring Girls’ Generation as a free gift.  The posters bring back memories of the “Girls’ Generation” music video as they feature the girls in a cute rock band concept.  Seohyun’s now instantly recognizable pink guitar even makes an appearance to complete the look.  The girls have proven to be a great model for Goobne Chicken, and these posters will surely help continue that success.

2. Sunny Skillfully Handles Dating Question on Strong Heart

On this week’s episode of the SBS show “Strong Heart”, MC Kang Ho Dong directed a question at Sunny asking how many Girls’ Generation members are currently dating.  Sunny artfully responded, “Rather than dating….just…it could be one sided love…it’s under half.”  Then the MC asks Seohyun which of the members she thinks will be first to marry, to which she replied Hyoyeon, Jessica, and Sunny.  This prompted Kang Ho Dong to say, “Then these three are dating right now.”  Sunny handled the subject with ease, showing off her quick wit and variety show skills to give the audience a laugh.  Thanks to 오이사랑싴@soshified.com for the translation.

SONE Picture/Video of the Week

This week’s SONEs of the week are the guys of Boyz Generation, a group of SONEs out of Indonesia.  For their latest cover they pulled off a killer rock remix of “Let it Rain” from Girls’ Generation’s First Japan Album.  Their arrangement gives the song a totally different feel with impressive guitar work and vocals throughout.  The flow from the second verse into the bridge and chorus is smooth with great guitar riffs.  The section coming out of the breakdown into the final chorus was especially strong as well.  “Let it Rain” was one of my favorites off the First Japan Album, and these guys definitely put their own spin on it and produced a great rock arrangement.  Check out more of Boyz Generation’s covers on their Youtube channel.
