    According to imwhywhy, it looks like some of SNSD will attend (Yuri won't due to drama filming, not sure if Tiffany, Seohyun and Yoona can make it back from London on time)

  2. @Digz_Kudo (one of SNSD's Japanese mixers tweeted the following about SNSD's Japan activities:

    Great anticipation for SNSD's Japan activities of this year. We have a different strategy from that of last year. They newly have US activities, so the key is how we should schedule Korea, Japan and US activities. (^^) I want to tell you about this, but I can't for now (´Д` )"

    and

    We received an urgent request from SM now (゚o゚;; They are requiring the audio source for SNSD's next single (to be finished) by tomorrow morning (>_<) It's exactly the same situation as when we did "MR. TAXI"!! At that time, a miracle happened for us. Will the miracle happen again this time⁈ d( ̄  ̄)"

    The second tweet was from today... looks like a March Japanese release is true.

  3. according to oniontaker@twitter, the girls have said a us album is being prepared for a spring/summer release and that interscope has been flooded with requests from other TV shows after the Letterman and Kelly performances and that SM is desperately trying to change their schedule but looks unlikely at the moment.

    OK, time for personal opinion right now. I AM SO PROUD AND AMAZED. TBH I was pretty confident they can pull this off despite many people saying that this wasn't a strong song and how America does not dig the whole choreographed performance and SNSD kind of music. I knew that in order to have ANY chance of success in America, you need to be different so there is no point trying to emulate the trends in western pop at the moment but instead, stick with the kpop method of doing things because western audiences haven't seen this before.

    Honestly, the reactions were above and beyond what I was hoping for and I think SM hit the jackpot with the Letterman remix, it showed a perfect combo of SNSD - killer vocals and sharp moves and the Kelly perf + interview really reinforced that and helped establish the girls a tiny bit with the interview. I think we won a lot of fans over so I hope SM and Interscope capitalize on this immediately and rethink SNSD's schedule for the year... And of course, thank you SONE's who are in NYC atm for all the support for the girls and showing America how big they are!

    All I can say is:

    Veni. Vidi. Vici.

    We came. We saw. We conquered!

  4. Sones please report these bashing comments...they have been bashing and bringing up SNSD for three damn pages now. Why is this ONLY allowed in that thread? do the mods feel sorry for them or something? this is pathetic.

    posted something over there, its disappointing to see their competitive attitude towards this whole american venture instead of a friendly attitude but i feel like there is no need to emulate their behaviour.

    On a happier note, some cuts of Sica in today's Wild Romance

    Am I the only one who is... well... shocked by her acting... Its really good...

  5. Dang, that is pretty big if what Soy is saying is true about the girls going on 2 shows like that. Letterman is definitely the big one, and Live with Kelly isn't quite the same without Regis, but still a known show. Can't wait to hear more about it.

    Kinda worried about Letterman though... His questions and wit are quite sharp, sometimes bordering on rude, it will be quite a tough interview especially for the girls who will have had no experience with tough interviews in another language...

    EDIT

    they just took home Best Female Artist as well... as expected :D CONGRATS SNSD

    OH AND ARTIST OF THE YEAR TOOO

  9. Guys, STAY POSITIVE!

    I'm sure this Mr Taxi/no repackaged situation is due to one of two things:

    1. SME have something BIG planned for the girls straight after

    2. The girls are too tired/need a break.

    Either way, its a good thing for us and for the girls right?

    SME didn't become the biggest entertainment company for nothing in Korea, they know what they are doing.

    As for the maxi single.... well.... its not the first time SME has been like this... lol

  10. Oricon has released their predictions for the 62nd Kohaku Uta Gassen guestlist and SNSD IS ON IT! http://www.oricon.co.jp/music/special/2011/kohaku1022/index.html

    Kōhaku Uta Gassen (紅白歌合戦), more commonly known as simply Kōhaku, is an annual music show on New Year's Eve produced by Japanese public broadcaster NHK and broadcast on both television and radio, nationally and internationally by NHK's networks and some overseas (mainly cable) broadcasters which bought the program. The show ends shortly before midnight (when NHK switches to a frenzy of "Happy New Year" greetings from around the nation).

    Literally "Red and White Song Battle," the program divides the most popular music artists of the year into competing teams of red and white. The "red" team or akagumi (赤組, 紅組) is composed of all female artists (or groups with female vocals), while the "white" team or shirogumi (白組) is all male (or groups with male vocals). The honor of performing on Kōhaku is strictly by invitation, so only the most successful J-Pop artists and enka singers can perform. In addition to the actual music performances, the costumes, hair-styles, makeup, dancing, and lighting are also important. Even today, a performance on Kōhaku is said to be a big highlight in a singer's career because of the show's large reach.

    EDIT

    SNSD is up for Disk Daesang, Digital Daesang and Most Popular Artist at the GDA this year.
