Thanks for the translation.

It's a good read... a long one too...

At the end of reading all that, I felt somewhat isolated, distant from the girls. There's so much about them that I don't know...

Hope you can translate more of this type of article!

Fighting!~

Thanks for the translation!

Its good to see them happy isn't it?! Lately I have been worrying like an ajusshi-fan (although I'm just a year older than Taeyeon). So, story like this put my worries at rest.

But I wonder who the representative is?? Manager-hyung???

Anyway, SNSD fighting!! SONEs fighting!!

Thank you for the translation!

Totally agree!!

Wonder what makes her sad?? But I wouldn't be worry much since other members are around. Hope she's over it by now...

Thank you for the translation... this is a really good article!
Not the fact that it hails Taeyeon, but it is more towards making me (or others too) think:

"Oh yeah... why do I like her?? Hmm..."

Taeyeon is different, however. She seems like a typical, yet cute and attractive, Korean girl one may find around him/her could be found around him/her. In other words, she seems like a girl that has the looks to make her a realistic possibility as a girlfriend, but that doesn't mean she is not pretty. She's not super pretty or the prettiest, but she's as pretty as how much prettiness guys realistically wish for in a girlfriend.

I agree with the point that Taeyeon seems someone attainable though the reality might not agree with this image. Simply put, Taeyeon's look is above average...

What is more important, though, is in her actions. Males clearly like girls' "aegyo" a lot. If there were anything Taeyeon knows how to assert herself in, it would be in aegyo. Guys may feel uncomfortable or may even avoid forced and/or too much aegyo, but Taeyeon's aegyo is a bit dorky and genuine, and on top of that there is the added bonus of her cute looks. Whether Taeyeon is actually genuinely dorky or not is irrelevant. Just from her looks and actions, guys construe an image of her as a "cute girlfriend with a great personality." If there was a girl like Taeyeon around, most guys will definitely be attracted to her image of having great personality and try to "hit on her."

I also agree with the point about Taeyeon's actions. There is certainly some level of ingenuity in it, making her distinct from others. But I beg to differ in the way it is described and elaborated.

To me personally, what makes people like Taeyeon is her character. Aegyo and dorky actions might suit her now, knowing that the fact she's 21. But actions need to change over time whether you like it or not. I don't think the "general community" find it's appropriate to do "girly" aegyo when you reach certain level of age.

Let us look at the fact (as far as my knowledge concerns):

1) She's the leader. (from her image, I think everyone can agree that she's up to the job)
2) She always care for the member. (watch her comment on WGM regarding HyungDon presence at the Thai concert)
3) She always let others go first.
4) She always try to hide her tears.

All of these facts give me the impression that, if Taeyeon is not a idol like now and being a person as normal as a Korean can be, I think she is someone:

1) Bravely take the blame if she done something wrong.
2) If met with an old grandmother wanting to cross the street with some luggage, she will definitely help!
3) Never say "no" if a friend asks for something.
4) Face her problem objectively and persevere any hardship.

And I because of these "impressions" that I have, is the reason why I like her and probably many others share the same view (or probably not! )

Taeyeon Jjangg!

good to hear that they stick with each other very well.

personal account like this is something that we as fans need more rather than all those TV and stage appearances. at the end of the day, as true fans, i think we all wanted to know their personalities well, as personality shows your soul. You'll get old with time, you'll get wrinkled when you're old, but your soul will stay the same.

I personally wouldn't blame the manager-oppa for the fierce look when people asking for picture... I would even be angry if manager-oppa didn't stop everyone.

I guess we as fans of SNSD also need to take care of manager-oppa!
