Japanese netizens commented, "You guys should study up on Japanese more" and "I hope this will be a good lesson", while Korean netizens came to the girls’ defense saying, "Let's try to understand our Korean artists, who are probably having a hard time in a foreign land".
It has been revealed that an outside party partially owns the trademark rights to the term ‘Girls’ Generation‘, or SNSD.

On December 9th and 10th, Girls’ Generation took their “Second Asia Tour” to Singapore and performed in front of sold-out crowds both nights at Singapore Indoor Stadium. Both days were filled with events, including the handing-out fan packages, the girls’ press conference before the second concert, and the concerts themselves.
Of course, any Girls’ Generation concert has to start with fans lining up for good spots in the mosh pits near the stage, close enough to wave, cheer, and even evoke reactions from the girls themselves. Though some fans arrived to the stadium as early as the night before, they were only able to officially start standing in line at 9:00 AM the day of the concert. As gates started opening one and a half hours before the start of the concert, fans streamed in holding banners and signs supporting the girls and wearing and holding pink items, adding an electric atmosphere to a “pink ocean” even before the girls took the stage.
The stage had three huge LED screens, allowing spectators to see close-ups of the girls performing. Before the concert, a tent was in the middle of the stage, covering the polygon on which the girls would rise into the arena. Laser beams, trapezes, and elevated platforms were also present, demonstrating the fact that the Girls’ Generation concert was the most expensive K-pop concert to be held in Singapore. SONEs from all over the world also came to Singapore from Japan, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand among others, for the sole purpose of watching the girls perform and giving them love and support. These SONEs even hugged each other due to the sheer joy and excitement of getting to see the girls on stage.
As the lights dimmed on the stadium, the pink from thousands of light sticks illuminated the place with a magical glow while fans erupted in anticipation for the girls’ appearance. After a dramatic opening sequence on the big screens, the massive silver structure at center stage began to rise and come apart, revealing the nine angels in perfect formation for their opening number – “Sowoneul Malhaebwa”. The screaming and the fanchants became exceptionally loud, with everyone seemingly chanting in one voice, something that lasted through the entire concert. Likewise, during “The Boys” performance, despite SONEs already going hoarse due to the loud fanchants since the beginning of the concert, the fanchant for “G. G.” was exceptionally loud. The unified voice shouting “G. G.” even echoed throughout the whole stadium, giving off an awesome feeling and shocking Jessica in the process.
During a talk segment midway through the concert, eight of the girls introduced themselves in English. However, Seohyun did something a little different, as she decided to introduce herself in Chinese. During her part, Sunny showed off her well-known killer aegyo, causing the whole stadium to cheer. Tiffany asked the audience after the introductions on the second night, “Who was here yesterday? Hands up!” Taeyeon and Sooyoung, showing off their “adorkableness”, answered with her hands held up, “Me! Me! Me!”
Each girl also had a solo performance as usual. Hyoyeon started off the solo performances dancing to “Please Don’t Stop the Music”. It was a power-packed performance, and Hyoyeon has once again showed the audience why she is known to fans as the “Dancing Queen” of Girls’ Generation.
During Taeyeon’s solo, “Devil’s Cry”, the bass from the sound system was powerful. Taeyeon’s vocal prowess was clearly projected through the sound system. The performance gave goosebumps, as the strong feeling of the lyrics were enhanced with Taeyeon’s great voice.
Jessica played piano and sang “Almost” in her solo performance. The whole stadium was in utter silence when Jessica was performing, listening to Jessica’s voice. Of course, Jessica did not fail to impress her fans with her powerful voice, which she delivered in this particular song.
In Sunny’s solo performance of “Three”, she wore different sets of clothing for both nights of the concert, but the outfit for the second night was sexier than the first. Nonetheless, the performance was outstanding as the choreography was mostly done by Sunny herself. It flowed very well and showed Sunny’s sexy side.
Taeyeon and Tiffany’s duet of “Lady Marmalade” was powerful as well. With Tiffany wearing a pink dress which contrasted with Taeyeon’s blue tube top, both showed off their vocal prowess and hot, sexy, yet cute images of themselves on stage.
In Yuri’s solo performance of “If”, Yuri donned with dark green clothes like that of a soldier, which fit her concept and choreography, especially the part when she saluted. Yuri’s power-packed performance of smooth dance moves once again proved why she is one of the main dancers in Girls’ Generation.
With Seohyun’s performance of “Stuff Like That There”, she tap-danced her way into the hearts of fans as she has once again showed that her talent is not just limited to singing.After Seohyun’s tap-dancing came Yoona’s solo performance of “4 Minutes”, which was sexy and hot. She was brought up on stage via an elevator, and the performance ended on a high note with part of her costume being torn off by a backup dancer on stage.
In Sooyoung’s performance of “Sway”, she swooned the fans with her amazing ballroom dancing. Although Sooyoung had only a few days to perfect her choreography, the short time frame did not stop her from delivering an impressive performance.
Overall, the girls performed a staggering set list of 33 songs. It was apparent that the entire concert was split into three distinct categories, in addition to the solo performances obviously showed off the distinct personalities of the girls. The opening stages of the concert saw the girls adopt an image not seen in a while – their more innocent side. Songs such as “Sowoneul Malhaebwa”, “Snowy Wish”, “Kissing You”, and “Oh!” were performed before the show transitioned into their second set in what proved to be a shift in image from innocent to sexy. The girls’ second set featured favorites such as “Bad Girl”, “Run Devil Run”, “The Boys”, and “Hoot”. Finally, the girls delved into their last part by getting in touch with their softer side and singing rich ballads such as “Danny Boy”, “My Child”, and “Complete”.
After “Complete” on the second night, fans held up signs provided by Soshified saying, “소녀시대 makes our lives complete”. The girls were overcome with emotion after seeing the fans’ efforts, with Taeyeon and Jessica even shedding tears. Near the end of the concert, Tiffany asked everyone to hold up their signs again, showing how much the event had made an impression on the girls. Right before the last song was performed, there was another talk segment. While Tiffany was speaking, all of the girls shoved their microphones towards Tiffany, and Taeyeon was seen kneeling down with her microphone in a pose that seemed like she was proposing to Tiffany. This really showed off the girls’ dorky sides and sent the whole stadium into fit of laughter and joy. Sooyoung and Tiffany also said to the audience, “We love you more than chili crab!” sending the whole stadium into laughter again and showing off their quirky humour and their affinity with Singaporean fans. Finally, they performed their last song, “Fantastic”. Tiffany said that it was for their fantastic fans. When the whole concert ended, some of the audience sang “Happy Birthday” to Yuri, who just had her birthday earlier in the week, and of course Yuri thanked the fans.
It was all over before anybody knew it. The girls said their goodbyes and the fans were all devastated. Everyone was amazed and felt that it was too surreal that the whole concert happened within a span of three hours. It was over before anybody knew it. The girls made a tremendous impact on thousands of SONEs first-hand, and had a way to make everybody lose themselves in a way no other musicians out there can. The fanservice, pairing moments, awesome performances, solo performances, and everything else made everybody want the girls to come back soon for another concert, as this turned out to be something they will never forget.
Much buzz was generated when it was revealed that all nine members of SNSD would be featuring in JTBC's new TV show, 'SNSD and the Dangerous Boys'.
While some speculated that it’d be difficult for idols to pull off a reality show on a cable channel, the girls did just that, and even helped the show score the highest viewer ratings out of all four sub-channels for its time slot.
On December 19th,AGB Nielsen Media revealed that the show recorded 1.299% in viewer ratings, a significant lead ahead of not just variety shows, but other dramas and informational programs.
The 'Joint Organization Channel' (Channel A, TV Chosun, JTBC, MBN) is now three weeks into its launch and has been struggling with dismal ratings, barely managing to reach the 1% mark with most of its shows. JTBC has been on the higher end, with 'Queen Insoo' recording a consistent 1.105%.
The two music shows, however, have been recording as low as 0.28%, proving that the four sub-channels still need a bigger push to be competitive enough for the public broadcast networks.
On December 18th, SNSD warmed fans with their thoughtfulness, as they provided a meaningful present to those who came to support them at SBS's 'Inkigayo'.
The girls performed their follow-up track, "Mr. Taxi", and later came out with coffee, hot packs, milk, and other beverages to warm up their fans and thank them for making the effort to support them. The fans had been waiting outside in the cold for some hours and were touched to hear that the girls had delivered snacks through their managers.
Fans commented, "Definitely SNSD", and "We're truly touched!"

SNSD member Sooyoung revealed her unique taste in men.
On the December 15th episode of Mnet's 'Beatles Code', the girls of SNSD revealed their ideal types.
Sooyoung admitted that she is attracted to down-to-earth guys who are friendly and approachable, and also that her mother can never seem to understand her attraction to the guys she likes.
"There was one time I went to go eat, and there was a guy who was actively grilling meat for all the Japanese tourists, speaking to them in his broken Japanese. I told my mom that I thought he was attractive, and my mom told me she couldn’t seem to understand," Sooyoung said.
"There was another time where I saw a policeman directing traffic across the street, and he was working really hard. I told my mom that I thought he was attractive too."
The MCs who listened to Sooyoung describe her ideal type remarked, "I guess you need a guy who can grill meat while directing traffic," which caused the set to explode in laughter.
On December 16th, a netizen uploaded a set of profile shots of SNSD's Yoonatitled 'Yoona at work', which showcased her pure and innocent charm.
In the photos, Yoona appears to be on set, wearing a yellow barrette to hold her hair back, unveiling her naturally beautiful face.
She garnered attention for her perfect features and captured the hearts of her fans with her angelic countenance.
Netizens who saw the photos left comments such as, "What does she eat? How is she so beautiful?", "Daebak. I gasped when I saw these", "The word ‘pretty’ doesn’t do her justice", "It’s just a candid, but she looks so surprisingly good", and more.
Meanwhile, Yoona and the rest of the SNSD members are preparing for their “Mr. Taxi” promotions and will be heading to Japan to attend the 62nd annual NHK Red & White Song Festival on December 31st.
Following Yoona and Sooyoung, Girls' Generation's Yuri will be making her attempt at acting in a drama. Yuri was offered the lead female role in an upcoming SBS drama "Fashion King", and she is currently working on adjusting conditions to sign on for the drama.
A contract hasn't been signed yet, but they are modifying terms accordingly with Girls' Generation's schedule and the drama's filiming schedule. The agreement will be complete by the middle of this month and Yuri will participate in the filming. Yuri is planning to attend the first film shoot to see how it feels.

"Fashion King" will be about a young man starting in the Dongdaemun market and succeeding in the fashion world. Yoo Ah-in, from "Sungkyunkwan Scandal" and the film "Wandeuki", is a possible candidate for the lead male role, while Shin Sekyung is also a possible candidate for a female role.
An insider from 'Fashion King' remarked, "We saw her shed tears on the spot in a MV, and we know that her acting skills will not fall short even if she were to join us on set immediately. She can play multiples roles, ranging from a young teenager character to a mature woman in her 20′s."
If Yuri does end up accepting the casting offer, she could be competing against fellow member YoonAfor ratings, who will be playing a significant role in her own drama. 'Fashion King' will be airing around the same time as YoonA's 'Love Rain'.

On the December 15th episode ofKBS 2TV's ‘Happy Together 3', SNSD confessed that they lacked an active social life because of their busy schedules. Leader Taeyeon admitted that the girls have only gone clubbing when it was work-related, and fellow member Yuri then revealed, "Because we don’t have time to go to clubs, we create a mobile nightclub within our van."
MemberSooyoung then added, "Sometimes we turn off the lights at our rehearsal room and pretend its a club."
After listening to the girls, MC Park Myung Soo commented, "Get out of there. You will never see the ocean if you play in a small pond!", evoking much laughter from everyone.
Also on the episode alongside SNSD were Kim Gunmo, Yoon Il Sang, and more.
SNSD will become personal mentors for rebellious students on jTBC's new rehab program, 'SNSD and the Dangerous Boys'.
Through personal therapy and training, the girls will help the boys mature and learn important life skills. But just how bad are these the teens?
It was revealed that before the girls met them, they were shown video clips of their behavior, to which they reacted with shock.
One teen stunned YoonA by asking a particularly sensitive question, while Yuri was taken back by her teen’s cold gaze.
Maknae Seohyun, who's known for being polite and proper, eventually blew up at the teen she was assigned because he was responding to her questions with no interest or respect. She shouted, You can’t live like this!"
She later explained, "It's upsetting that these boys are living without dreams or any thoughts. I really want to help them find their dreams."
The pilot episode airs on December 19th at 7:30 p.m. KST.

When asked if she ever thought about becoming a solo artist, Taeyeon responded, “No, I feel less intimidated and burdensome on stage thanks to the girls.”
"They fill the areas in which I lack, they are good at the things that I am not so good at. I think I am better suited for a girl group."
The other SNSD members seemed to agree with her. And when they were asked to pick the prettiest member out of the group, they answered, "We can’t choose just one. Each member has their own unique charms," expressing their content with the group as a whole.
Member Sooyoung also confessed her insecurities, while they also shared stories of arguments between Tiffany and Taeyeon, and Hyoyeon and Seohyun.'

Seohyun kept a stiff face when she was viewing the lives of the boys through a monitor. After the video clip, she showed her pity saying, "I think the boys are living without dreams or thoughts."
Though she remained calm during the personal advising session during which the boys answered with careless words, Seohyun later surprised everyone when she exploded with anger by saying, "You shouldn’t live like this."
Seohyun later showed her determination and said, "I'm upset that the boys seem to live without thinking about anything and without a dream," and, “I want to find a dream for the boys."

Previously on a radio show, Girls' Generation talked about the problem they face with rookie groups, saying, "Rookie groups are uncomfortable around us and think that we're hard to approach, so we greet them loudly first and do ninety-degree bows. It's only been four years since we debuted, so rather than getting greeted, we think it's right to greet them first with enthusiasm."
Netizens expressed their surprise, commenting: "They weren't just saying it; they really did bow at ninety degrees",
"Girls' Generation is well-known for greeting others well", and "It's heartwarming".

She stated, "I can't stand that unavoidable awkwardness when I meet alone with a guy, so a lot of times I can't even start the dating process. Even when a guy calls me, I sometimes ignore them. And if possible, I would like to avoid dating someone who works in the entertainment industry."

During a press conference for "Love Rain" held on December 13th, Yoona started by saying, "I had the sudden urge to start acting again because I hadn't played a role after the daily drama two years ago. At the same time, I had a chance to read the synopsis for 'Love Rain' and I really wanted to do this one."
Yoona will be playing a double role in the drama, acting as "Kim Hana" in the year 2012 and "Kim Yoohee" in the 1970s. She said, "But when I read the script for the first time I had trouble deciding which character to focus on, Kim Hana or Kim Yoohee. I heard that Kim Hana is a lot like my actual personality so I didn't worry too much. I was worried, however, about playing Kim Yoonhee from the 1970's. I don’t know much about the 1970's and I don’t have that much acting experience either."
However, she continued by explaining that Director Yoon Seokho’s guidance helped her learn a lot and showed her confidence by saying, "We are currently near the end of the filming for the 1970's, and surprisingly, all the things I worried about are going well."
