In the past, idols and artists frequently took breaks in between promotions. However, in today’s music industry, the line between rest and activities is being blurred. Popular singers these days are showing their faces through individual performances and overseas promotions, even if they are not promoting in Korea.
Girls’ Generation are considered the leaders of the global K-Pop phenomenon, and they certainly don’t stay quiet for long. Visit davidthompson200 to listen all latest songs from K-Pop.
It’s Time to Become Acting-dols – Yuri, Sooyoung and Yoona
Yoona, who became the first member of Girls’ Generation to act in a drama when she starred in “You Are My Destiny” in 2008, will now act in KBS 2TV’s “Love Rain” with Jang Geunsuk. After a preview of “Love Rain” was revealed, many people began paying attention to Yoona’s fresh, pure, and college-like appearance.
Yuri and Sooyoung, who both appeared in the sitcom “Unstoppable Marriage”, will be making the leap and debuting as full-scale actresses alongside Yoona. Yuri will be appearing in the Monday and Tuesday drama “Fashion King”, playing the role of the chic and cold Choi Anna.
Temporarily shedding her stage name “Sooyoung of Girls’ Generation”, Sooyoung will be making her first acting attempt as “Choi Sooyoung”. She will be starring in the drama “The 3rd Hospital”, which is scheduled to broadcast on tvN this coming July. Though Sooyoung had a small role in the film “Hello Schoolgirl” in 2008 that officially started her feature film career, “The 3rd Hospital” marks the start of her drama career. In “The 3rd Hospital”, Sooyoung will be playing the role of Uijin, a violist, and is expected to be involved in a romantic storyline with fellow stars Kim Seungwoo, Oh Jiho and Kim Minjeong
The Powerful MC Line – Taeyeon, Tiffany and Seohyun
Alongside her MC gig, Taeyeon also recently appeared in the SBS sitcom “Salamander Guru”, in a cameo role of a granddaughter of a wealthy man that owns a large business, where her formidable acting received a lot of attention.
Following Yoona, Seohyun appeared in CF’s for ‘The Face Shop” last year, while Tiffany has been making waves with her performance in the musical “Fame” and in various magazine photo shoots.
Resting for a While – Jessica
In “Wild Romance”, Jessica played the chic Kang Jonghee, a positive yet challenging lead role. She has been reported to be one of the most active members of Girls’ Generation since they debuted. In 2009, Jessica was cast in “Legally Blonde”, making her the first of the members of Girls’ Generation to make a musical appearance, and thus starting a trend of musical debuts amongst her members.
Variety Idol Feeling – Hyoyeon
In a recent broadcast, Hyoyeon was seen driving around in a calm manner, which gave her the nickname “Lee Soogeun of Idols”, and brought her one step closer to solidifying her character.
The Most Busy – Sunny
On top of her other activities, Sunny will be starring in the musical version of “Catch Me If You Can”, playing the hero of the musical, Brenda.
SM Entertainment has officially stated that “Sunny is the most active member in various areas”, and that “the challenge of a musical debut and emceeing is a big burden” for Sunny.

The girls work so hard to please all us fans around the world. I hope that they do have time for themselves to take a break because they deserve some time off. I’m glad to hear that Jessica is taking time out from doing activities which is good. I’m sure shes getting some much needed rest! :) Good luck to SooYoung w/ her drama coming up. My god, Sunny has so much on her plate, but I know she can pull it off. :) <3
The Girls are certainly unstopabble in all aspects of the industry and there is no letting up. They are collectively a force to be reckoned with for sure as far as earning power is concerned.
Go Girls!!!
I knew Sunny was the busiest! She has a musical, variety show, AND MC. D: I hope she’s handling it well. Although she said she’s having fun, I still hope she still find time to rest.
Jessica’s finally getting her really wanted and well derserved sleep. xD
Before, I was thinking how Jessica and SooYoung aren’t doing much at the moment, but now Soo has a lead role in a movie and Jessica just finished hers. Our girls are truly busy.
Hwaiting, rest soon, and stay healthy!!! ^^ <333

The great thing about Sunny is you can feel that she’s doing all these mainly for self-fulfillment. Challenging herself to exceed what’s expected of her, not for recognition but for the glory of it.
good work and hope for success!! ^^
well, i guessed it’s Sunny even before reading the whole article.
seriously, mc, variety show and musical?
WOW!
That just WOW!
fighting SOSHI!
the result came out just as i expected :) hopefully sunny is able to come to malaysia tomorrow despite her heavy schedule :3
Well i think sunny was said as the busiest member due to various of activities tht shes doing right now. But overall i would say yoona. Her acting modelling cf filming cause her a lot of her time.
beside group schedule, sunny has 3 activities for herself.
yoona only has drama and filming CF isn’t routine activity
Yeah they should take a break! Especially for Yoona as she has been busy since forever. From the time of You’re my destiny up till now. A vacation or simply a time to rest would be great :)
tiffany had musical when snsd was still promoting the boys and mr taxi, she lost a lot of weight during her activities. Taeyeon and Yoona are always busy among the members
it’s time for others, i’m happy to see yuri and sooyoung being actrees, and sunny is busiest for a while
take cares girls
Although I would really love for them to get some rest, I really excited to see them tomorrow.
SNSD, please be strong and endure it for us fans in Malaysia
awww, our lee soonkyu is the busiest member. i hope she can still rest after all her hard work. Don’t overdo it sunny! Your health is most important! Jessica Jung, i hope you can act again. Can’t wait for your next acting project. Good luck to all actresses Yoona, Yuri and Sooyoung. Can’t wait to see your dramas. To our Music Core MCs, fighting! keep up the good work! :)
don’t burn yourself out ladies
These girls need their vacation now! N.O.W.
Lucky for Sica, she gets to rest.. But she was the busiest back when they did their The Boys promos. She didn’t even get to go to the fan signing in NYC cause she had to fly back to Korea to shoot.
Hyo, SH, Fany & Taengu don’t really have a busy schedule. So that’s good.
SY is getting busier but it’s still not so bad.
YoonYul & Sunny are insanely busy right now.
They need their rest. Especially Yul.
SM, give these girls a break!
during hello baby too she didn’t appear in first episode coz she had musical
at this time snsd was promoting genie

Individual activities are fun, but SNSD as 9 members is better.
I hope Sunny doesn’t overwork herself!
Remember the days when Taeyeon had Chin Chin radio, Win Win MC, Midnight Sun play, SNSD promotions and concert preparations in the same time? That was just too much…
wow,, they are so active individually…
resting for a while – jessica…
hahaha… the pic is really match well with the title…
she’s soo cute..
Yeah its true that Sunny is one of the busiest of all right now, but I think that Yoona is always busy especially that she could not attend a lot of performances especially in the ITNW times, even though she is not always busy because of the dramas but when she doesn`t film dramas she is not on several performances or practices, wich I think is very weird. But whatever is just my opinion…
SOSHI FIGHTING…! <3
Yup! They are busy
beside their individual activities, snsd has a lot of performance scedhules too
jessica does a little activity like photoshot etc.
i think it’s a bit scary they are the most busiest k-pop group from last year
SNSD daebak!
Happy that Sunny has all these opportunities to shine in different areas!
Fashion King vs Love Rain… exciting!!!
Two words..Sunny jjang!
True, Sunny would be the busiest soshi member at the moment. I think this post missed it timing a bit for jessica, because she had one of the busiest schedule among the girls during Oh! promotions..With the musical, show and all..One can only imagine how she managed to cope with all the stress…
yup it’s balance. she has to take a rest coz she looks too skiny and makes her face older than usual.
