Good God they’re busy. One week in HK and the next in LA? Yikes. No wonder some members can’t make to shows. Can’t blame them. The machine must go on.
Thanks for the Update ~♥
lord give these lovely 9 babies health and strength to tackle all their schedules and also continue to give the same for all those Sone braving up to go out there and support them. i’m very happy to see our girls getting work here and there. i just hope in between whenever there are no schedule, that they get to rest a bit. can’t be having them sick and tired. i’m loving the Sone vid. wonderful work ladies. :D
thanks SSF <3
WOAH! The video of the week is just so wow! Their balancing skills are genius!
Why won’t you guys tell everyone about Billboard’s Fan Army Face-Off? SONEs already made it through to the second round after beating the Little Monsters (Lady Gaga fans). It is important and you will be of great help because large fanbase community.
There are tons of things Soshified doesn’t announce that they should. I get the rumors things, but there are things that are true that can be announced. Even if it has to do with their personal lives, it’s already on the internet, what is it gonna hurt to have one more site have it up. Like Yoona and Sooyoung’s new drama’s weren’t announced on here either. So I totally know how you feel. I ranted a little, so sorry! Haha
I have been thinking on this a lot since the dating news has been released and I have come to a conclusion: Soshified only posts news and information that regards to Girls Generation and Girls Generation members Idol/professional activites. Concerts, Performances, Variety shows, Celebrity interaction etc. Girls Generation the members are idols and what they do publicly is public news. However, Kim Taeyeon, Jung Sooyeon, Hwang Miyoung, Lee Sunkyu, Choi Sooyoung, Im YooNa, Seo JooHyun, Kim Hyoyeon, Kwon Yuri are people. People with private lives that deserve that privacy. Yes, other sites, news organizations, and companies may invade that privacy and share the news/rumor but SSF, I believe, does not want to do that because they respect SNSD as idols and as people. Even if it has been confirmed, talked about and released officially, it is a private matter that was forced to be shared publicly.
As for fan battles online – I have noticed that SSF does not mention any but award winning “battles”. Ones for posterity sake or internet bragging right s- while they may bring momentary attention to our SNSD – are drops in a very big ocean. As blunt as this may seem…they don’t matter. Now don’t get me wrong – I will ALWAYS love SNSD and will cheer win they win they dumbest of titles (really Japan…a blue jeans award?) but I recognize them as fun and just that – fun.
Anyway – I hope I made some sense here; I tend to type a lot as my brain works, but actually end up saying very little.
* sorry for the double post but I can’t edit to add this:
as for the new dramas – not sure why this hasn’t been put into news format. For Sooyoung they may be waiting for them to confirm the new role rather than just be in talks? ( I just did a quick search on this so my info may be outdated)
YoonA…not…sure at all. Maybe it was just overlooked? There is a lot of news with Soshi…maybe the writers just missed it? Send them a line about these with your source links. Sometimes that helps.
@Andie Cassiv
About Yoona and Sooyoung’s drama news, the reason they weren’t announced was because it was never 100% confirmed. Soshified only posts news that are 100% confirmed. And BTW, it was recently announced that Yoona decided to forego that drama Nodame Cantabile and to work in a movie instead.
I agree, its rather worrying that we dropped from 70%+ to less than 60% in one day. If SNSD won the entire faceoff that has over 45million votes, I’m sure their awareness in the United States would increase significantly, especially when they’re against such popular American artists.
Thank a lots for the weekly news wrap.
