Guest kevin1320 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 [ARTICLE] SNSD IN REPORT FROM JAPAN NEWSPAPER Hallyu Girl Group Chaos Four arrivals in less than six months by: Tanaka Makoto Korea's girl groups will be arriving one by one at Japan this summer. In commemoration of their debut, droves of fans have been crowding with a quickly rising feverish fervor. The hallyu idols seem to be counting on their charms to lead the way in creating a commotion of hype for their arrival. On August 11, the charismatic and instantly famous, 5-girl group KARA debuted with their single Mister. Video uploading sites quickly began flooding with their back-bending “Hip Dance”. The same day, KARA gave a surprise live performance in front of the Shibuya 109 building in commemoration of their debut. Despite no prior announcement of such performance, the event was reported by the organizers to have attracted around 3000 people. The Korean music groups that have led the way in breaking into Japan in the past include DBSK, Big Bang, and such boy bands. However starting this year, it seems the spread of the Korean boom has taken on the shape of girl groups. Leading the way is the 5-girl group 4minute who debuted last May. Combining rap with hip-hop flavors, 4minute already announced last month the release of their second single. Following in KARA's footsteps, is the 9-girl group Girl's Generation who on August 11th released a DVD compilation of their music videos. Featuring costumes that heavily emphasize their long and slender legs, Girl's Generation is very proud of the immense success they enjoy in their homeland. On the 25th, they plan to hold an event at the Tokyo Ariake Collosseum for some 10000 people. On the same 25th, using their “sexy dance”˟ to spread their more adult-oriented sex appeal, the 4-girl group Brown Eyed Girls will also debut. This brings the total number of girl groups to debut in Japan in less than six-months to four. The personality of the groups differ in slight ways, but their in-fashion electronic tracks, their perfectly coordinated dance routines, and their sexy costumes (along with other such weapons) is something they all have in common. cr: checarlos87@SSF.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVBuddy Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 "And Taeyeon replied 'We can at least go backstage where it's cool and get rest. But the fans have to stay and watch in the heat.. It's not me mom.. but it's the fans who have it hard..'"...i knew there's a reason why I always loved this girl other than for her being so effing cute and good in singing.

Guest 2uss Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Yoona was ranked most popular by Japanese fans. On the 18th on an internet community forum people responded to “The most popular SNSD member in Japan ranking”. Yoona came in first place with 5,819 votes totaling 34.9%. Yuri was 2nd with 2,627 votes and Tiffany was 3rd with 2,462 votes. Taeyeon, Jessica, Seohyun, Sunny, Sooyoung and Hyoyeon followed next in that specific order. The survey results analysis is as follows. Out of the fans 39.7% were female while majority were males with 60.3%. 50% of the fans were between the ages of 20~24. Fans who took the survey said things like, “In my eyes they’re all cute” and “This popularity ranking is similar to the Korean one”. On the 25th SNSD will hold a showcase at the Ariake Coliseum and they will begin their full-blown Japan promotions with the Japanese version of “Tell Me Your Wish” which will be titled “Genie”. [Note: As seen in previous surveys in the news. This does not represent all of the Japanese people. As we can see this survey has an overwhelming amount of male votes where the previous one had an overwhelming amount of female votes. Please remember this and we love all 9 girls!] Translated by: Kanki@Soshified.com (thank you) Source: http://japanese.joins.com/article/article.php?aid=132275&servcode=700§code=700 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest xx7 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 poll from biglobe is also quite similar If you just consider the individual votes but I don't think you can say that it's the level of popularity in Japan because many people outside Japan joint the votes from biglobe poll we can choose to see the votes from male and female and from different age ranges The vote count are like 113k now but there're 6090 people involve in this poll 3176 males 2914 females so male vote surpass female vote now the result are somewhat similar with YoonA and Yuri lead the poll 1. YoonA 30.6% 2. Yuri 23.7% 3. Taeyeon 13.9% 4. Tiffany 11.2% 5. Jessica 7.6% 6. Sunny 7. Seohyun 8. SooYoung 9. Hyoyeon and when count Male vote Yuri is no.1 while YoonA get more vote from female you can try see different graph yourself by tick at different catagories http://music.biglobe.ne.jp/special/k-pop/girlsgeneration.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
