In the section “Girls’ Generation Travels Abroad and Back” I don’t see Jessica’s name. Did she not go to Japan with the group?
When they went to Japan, it says “Girls’ Generation” which include all 9 girls. But after they were done with the promotion, Taeyeon and Jessica apparently didn’t return with the rest of them. I don’t know if those two are together in Japan or each went somewhere else for individual schedules.
kamsahamnida SSF ♥♥♥
i love that Love&Peace went #1 on it’s debut and it was also #1 for day 2 with 67,000+ and now i just find out from a Sone that they got #1 on Oricon weekly chart. Love&Peace is at about 129,000+ copies now and i’m hoping that album continue to climb in sales. wouldn’t mind our girls getting another million shipped and sold for a Korean act. btw it’s been too long since last i’ve seen good numbers for our girls’ Japanese releases. last time they had good numbers was when OH! single drop 2012. whoop whoop International recognition continues, GLOBAL GENERATION is still in effect. love Sone video.
Thanks for update ~♥
they are totally giving us a hint to their Korean comeback in the YouTube rewind video <3 <3
