On June 9th, 2012, Girls’ Generation performed alongside their fellow SM Entertainment artists at Hsinchu County Stadium near Taipei, Taiwan for “SMTOWN Live World Tour III”. It was the second concert in the “SMTOWN Live World Tour III” series, with the first being at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California in the United States. Similar to the first concert in Anaheim, Girls’ Generation was joined by BoA, TVXQ, Super Junior, SHINee, f(x), and EXO. They were also joined by Kangta and Zhang Liyin, who did not appear at the previous SMTOWN concert.
Girls’ Generation was able to fully perform as nine, as Yuri and Yoona were able to join their fellow members on stage after missing the Anaheim concert because of drama filming responsibilities. The girls performed the same set of songs as they did in California, plus one additional performance. Jessica once again sang “California Gurls” with her younger sister Krystal of f(x), and Girls’ Generation performed “Run Devil Run” with Taeyeon’s “Devil’s Cry” intro, “Genie”, “Kissing You”, “Himnae!”, “Gee”, and “The Boys”. Girls’ Generation – TTS also performed “Twinkle”, and the new performance that Taiwanese fans were treated with was a special collaboration with D.O., Luhan, Sehun, and Chanyeol of EXO for Usher’s “DJ Got Us Fallin’ In Love”.
The next concert in the “SMTOWN Live World Tour III” series is scheduled to be in Tokyo, Japan on August 4th and 5th, 2012 at the Tokyo Dome.

I posted one below, the snsdkorean site has a bunch, or just go search youtube for them.
Here’s a Seohyun focused fan cam of the “DJ Got Us Falling In Love Again” (the prior link was taken down). Seohyun really sparkled in this performance, her dancing was perfection even wearing 4″ heels.

glad them all 9 performing in a concert finally..i missed YoonYul already~
at last!!! Weve seen the Girls Complete Again… hayzzz ive waited this long to see them perform
=)))))))))))))))
wow!!! good to see that they are complete here! it’s been awhile.
Pls come back to Malaysia!!! I’ve missed u girls… ><
They are performing in Tokyo on their anniversary?! That’s gotta be cool, but I wonder what they would rather be doing for their debut anniversary. Performing sure, of course. But would they have a special location in mind? If it were me, I’d go back to where it all started to perform for memory’s sake. Those Japanese fans better give them something extra special when they see the girls perform! So lucky…
I hope there is video of the song DJ’s Got Us Falling In Love Again, that sounds awesome. :D
waaaaaa. they’re complete again !!!
im so happy seeing them standing as 9 again ^^
I think yuri weight gain , maybe because her holiday,,, haha but it’s nice because she’s healthy .. actually i saw her photo from the Farewell Party of “Fashion King” too.. she’s look chubby.. but still cute .. ♥♥♥
btw i love TTS and EXO performance ..
yoonaaaaaaa ……. i miss u … ♥♥♥♥♥♥
Yeah me too. That time when I saw Yuri is like “Oh, that’s her old look as before” and I missed that look of hers a lot! I was quite happy about it to be honest. Not like her body during the Japan Tour where and when she got really skinny that it scared the hell out of me.
i also happy to see yuri like this… Chubby and fresh… XD
So was the camera policy at the Hsinchu County Stadium less strict than it was at the Honda Center in LA? I’m seeing a lot of HQ picture and HD fancams already. After SMTOWN LA, I only saw mostly cell phone pictures
I was there. During the first half the concert the staff was actively going around and tapping people to stop taking photos and videos. I only had a cell phone with me and still they kept on tapping at me while I was taking some photos and videos myself.
But then in the second half they apparently gave up because I wasn’t being disturbed anymore and then I saw a couple with people with HQ and HD cams (one even had a freaking tripod with her). This was in the mosh pits near the stage.
Oh well…
BTW, I was kind of annoyed when they were bothering me about it actually. I mean, if I were the security staff, cell phones are fine because the quality isn’t gonna be that good anyway for piracy purposes, IMHO. I had a Samsung Galaxy SII with me and still the quality of my photos and videos isn’t that great at all compared to the ones that use HQ and HD cams. Oh well… that’s just me.
TTS and EXO’s performance of “DJ Got Us Falling In Love Again” was kind of magical and Seohyun enthusiastic performance was something special to watch!

So jealous. Among the many performances, loved the collaboration of “DJ Got us Fallin’ in Love Again” by Exo and TTS!
Why did you have to show those close up pictures of Yoona and Yuri?! I missed them so much when they were not in Anaheim!!! Aside from my heart broken for that reason, it is filled with happiness that Taiwanese Sone got to feel the love of our nine girls! I am proud of all Sone representation at the event and eagerly await my next chance to experience our girls again!
