Global promotions for Girls’ Generation have been gaining attention, with plans of their teaser video for “The Boys'” being played in different cities all over the world, as well as the worldwide release of their album.
Girls’ Generation’s teaser video, which contains the highlights of their music video, will be shown starting on October 17th (in accordance to Korean time) in New York City’s Times Square, Tokyo, Shinjuku, Harajuku, Shibuya in Japan, as well as Wangfujing Street in China, and an intersection in Kangnam, Seoul, informing people of their comeback.
The worldwide release of the album through iTunes on October 19th marks the start of their comeback. They will also be releasing a maxi single in the United States in November. They are planning on having the teaser play in Times Square for a month starting on October 17th, and they expect to capture the attention of American music fans.
The four cities of Japan, Wangfujing Street, and Kangnam were chosen as sites to play the teaser as well, as they are some of the busiest streets in their respective areas. A video showing pedestrians watching Girls’ Generation’s teaser video also garnered attention, and the teaser is expected to capture more global music fans.

Also, Interscope Records, the record label which will be distributing Girls’ Generation’s maxi single in the United States, updated their website earlier to now show Girls’ Generation under their list of artists. The lineup of artists signed under Interscope is impressive and includes Lady Gaga, Eminem, the Black Eyed Peas, Mary J. Blige, and many other famous singers and groups. While, at the time that this article is being written, Girls’ Generation’s page on Interscope’s website does not yet show any information beyond just their name, more details are sure to surface as the release date of the US maxi single approaches.
If you haven’t ordered the album already, pre-orders are available at YesAsia(without poster) and with poster. Also, Soshified is organizing a bulk order with Korean fansites, so check that out in this thread.

This is the dreams that SNSD have been trying to achieve, and now it has been accomplished ^^ I’m really happy for the girls now that they’re getting the attention, I hope they won’t try to have a break through in USA…and just keep things as a test trial and go slow and steady with this. I trust SME, they know what they’re doing and what’s best for the girls!
Soshi Fighting!!! We will keep in supporting you gals!!!
Keep up the good work!!! Saranghamnida!!!

OMG!
I’m so excited!!!
Gyaaaaaaa
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!
MAKE THEM FEEL THE HEAT!!!!!!
WE CAME TO WIN BETTER TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS!
SNSD FIGHTING!!!!!
I LOVE SM!!!!!!!
I look forward to SNSD’s comeback and I hope there English cd does well in the states. As an OS (Original Sone) “A term I came up with it is someone that became a fan in 2007-2008 area” I am worried for the girls the American music scene is tough and just because you and I might like there stuff does not mean the person next to us will too. The SNSD ladies put 110% into everything they do and i’d hate to see them be rejected.
wwwwwwaaahhhh! I seriously am so proud of the girls for this! This is what years of hard work can bring to 9 silly chickies! Now… the only thing I wish for the most is that they still remember the Soshi’s that they were in ITNW days… and never go “Hollywood” on us! And also— It was already crazy busy and super hard in Korea to meet the scheds. and shows and all… I hope that the girls get some rest and fun times now that they are working nationally…
on that note… Hyoyeon better still be allowed to go to all the convenience stores! haha! HYO THINK OF THE INTERNATIONAL SNACKS!!! LOL
YEA SNSD are finally BACK!!!
This is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Oh man I’m seriously psych for this and so proud of the girls making head way in International music markets. Those pics are awesome and wow playing their teaser for a month, hope everyday 100 more people turn into SONEs after viewing the teaser. I also saw their name and pic under the Interscope label with all the other major artists. Good job ladies and good business SM, I hope all goes well with everything. Thanks ssf for the news update. :)
Such a great opportunity to make the world know of these 9 exceptional human beings. They truly deserve this.
I’ve got goosebumps. I’m so proud of our Girls and so very excited to be a SONE during this time. SO NYEO SHI DAE FIGHTING!
