On May 10th, Tiffany and Seohyun appeared on MBC’s “Joo Byungjin’s Talk Concert”, along with labelmates Leeteuk and Eunhyuk from Super Junior and TVXQ’s Yunho and Changmin. On the show, Tiffany and Seohyun talked about the life span of girl groups and their hope to continue promoting as Girls’ Generation, as well as Seohyun’s troubles with her “proper lifestyle” image.
Tiffany stated, “When Girls’ Generation first debuted, it’s true that I thought, ‘We’ll probably last about five years, tops.’ But as we continued to promote, I wanted to be active as Girls’ Generation even more and wanted to continue on together.” She added, “One would expect to become greedy for individual activities, but I want to promote together as a group more.”
Seohyun added, “There are a lot of people who don’t think girl groups last very long, but Girls’ Generation wants to break that theory.”
Later in the show, Seohyun discussed the difficulties that come with her “proper lifestyle” image. She admitted, “People think of my entire image as a kid who lives a straight and narrow life, so I can feel myself not being able to act comfortably. I’ve been thinking that I want to go through some different life experiences and have been learning a lot while living with my other members.”
She continued, “People think, ‘That girl Seohyun sleeps at twelve o’clock, is strict on herself, and has a lot of things she shouldn’t do’. At one point, I felt like I was holding myself down too much. I have had a lot of worries lately.”
TVXQ’s Changmin reassured her, saying, “As another person who lived as the youngest member of an idol group at such a young age, there are a lot of things that I agree on and can sympathize with.”

I really hope that SNSD would be able to last longer!!>< it would be so sad if they disband soon):
I believe that SNSD will break the theory and not gonna disband or out from the group like their sunbae :)
It is a bit interesting to see how Seohyun’s lifestyle has actually locked her into an image and made her feel uncomfortable. I mean, the things that she is saying that fans think are not untrue and have come from her own mouth, but now she has that image and it sucks that she feels trapped to it…but I hope she knows that SONEs will appreciate a change for her as long as it continues to be a positive direction…and I really hope that can she can relax even if only in front of the other members and labelmates.
I feel like they have been around for ages lol
they went through so many down and I was surprised at first to see them recover from it
hope to see they live their dreams for as long I can
I know that Girls’ Generation can easily break the five year trend that some girl groups have been having.
So honest. Hope the girls can help her relax. And let’s make it 20 yrs. Sones aren’t going anywhere either.
I know that Girls’ Generation can easily break the five year trend that some girl groups have been having. And I know that SNSD shall continue staying together for many years to come
I know that Girls’ Generation can easily break the five year trend that some girl groups have been having. And I know that their five year anniversary is coming up and I am happy that they are still going strong. SNSD won’t break up anytime soon.

I’m still a K-pop trainee, but I don’t actually know about the existence of many girl groups other than SoShi :p
But I totally agree with you, even if they have already hit the peak of their career, I think that the SoShi spirit will still linger around. A lot of fans like SNSD not only because of their looks or their songs, but actually for their personalities. And for Seohyun, we like her because she IS Seohyun, not because she’s upright. >.<
i believe SNSD can break that theory… SNSD jjang!!! All the girl must life in l0ve with their on member…
Seohyun… if you uncomfortable about your life please talk with your unnie, i believe their want u fill free sometime… so, don’t thing seriously because this will make you stress…. SNSD saranghae..
I hope the girls can stay together for the next 5 years at least. It’s unheard of here in the USA for girl groups and boy bands to last more than 3 years due to such fickle fan bases. SONES are dedicated and loyal which is why Girls Generation has been around for so long now. The girls haven’t even peaked yet which is amazing! I only started getting into the girls last October and have a lot to catch up on still (the girls debut stuff.) I can’t wait for their official American debut, the album and tour. :D “Oh gee we make it so hot, Girls Generation we won’t stop”
I only got into SoShi last December!! >.< Haha … I can totally relate to how you feel, I want to stay updated with all the new merchandise, but I've got 5 years of stuff to catch up on!!
There is no doubt that the girls and all of Sone are going to do all they can to make sure the girls are the first ones to break the five year trend…and Seohyun should be proud of her image. Her character and maturity is admirable, but it is good to have the other girls there to help her break out of her shell a bit.
Seohyun If you dont feel uncomfortable..Talk to the girls about it! I feel sorry for you! I wish you could open up yourself to others! Theres no problem with you at all.. We love the way you are! The innocent and caring side of you..We love it! And whatever you will do, we love it! We just want you to show your feelings
Look at it this way, the rest of SNSD is crazy too … Seohyun unnie, you won’t stand out much even if you do let yourself loose :P Hahahaha! It’s about you being yourself, that’s what we like about SNSD!!
Nothing wrong with what are they doing now. They are really doing great. So nothing to worry and stress for all SNSD’s members. Just wish they take care their healthy and not so force their selves.
SNSD, fighting!!
They’re just jealous of Seohyun because she has a mindset of keeping herself healthy on top of her tight schedule. Besides, you can’t do much if your sick. Seohyun jjang~ :D
I think soshi could continue being girls’ generation waaaay longer then 5 years ^__^. Poor Seo…actually I feel bad for all of them, sense they can’t exactly be themselves all the time…especially with all these mean people around watching them like hawks, trying to catch them doing something “wrong” -___-. I wish soshi just act more like themselves and ignore the bad peeps :). SNSD FIGHTING!!!
Seohyun is growing up and discovering new things. Just be led by your own principles and don’t be held back by others’ expectations. We still love you!
Seobaby is Seolady now…
Snsd of course you guys would have to be OUR snsd 4 ever. Can’t change that ok? And Seohyun, I think she is fine. She doesn’t need to change because being proper or perfect is a part of Seohyun. Missing that wouldn’t be the Seohyun that I love. The Seohyun who is always being perfect is what I fell in love with.
=O!!
I have no doubt that they will break that theory :)
For sure Girls’ Generation can go further than 5 years! Or I’ll cry! And oh seohyun… She shouldn’t stress too much about how people see her, she’s still seohyun to us no matter what :)
i also hope that girls’ generation can break that theory and be together longer than any group before them :3
and i feel sorry for seohyun…but i think it would be good if she could open up more on tv n stuff and feel more comfortable…poor seohyun D:
