love the colors of those Hoot outfits. I was a bit thrown off by them not wearing the original colors of those outfits they wore in the Hoot photo shoot but they look amazing~

ohh and another new one!

:love

Idk if any of you knew this already, but they're releasing MR.TAXI/RDR in all three editions (including the deluxe with the photobook and card) in both Taiwan and Korea versions, so anyone who thought the Japan versions were a bit overpriced (aka me) can get these ones instead. The Korean ones are up for preorder on eBay and the Taiwan versions (not CD only) are listed on 5music.

Congratz to Yuri !
she is hot !!!

6th Day
Sales: 5593
Total Sales: 97149

idk, but probably with the magic of Oricon, they can sold the 100k, or maybe 99k

For the week they're #2 with 100,461 copies sold on Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.
So they passed 100k first week, I believe it's their personal record. So proud of them :heart They just seem to be getting more and more popular.

There's a rumor that they'll perform Mr. TAXI on Music Station on the 13th but it hasn't been confirmed. I hope it's true! I'm dying for a live!

New SPAO Felix the cat pics~


they are so adorable in these pics. I want those shirts soo bad! Unfortunately I think the SPAO site is all in Korean so I can't make an order :( I hope some SONES will think of putting some up on ebay or something.

^ Like always, too much Yoona :rolleyes

Like always, too much Yoona :heart :heart :love
and the sales are amazing

yay they're doing great with the sales !!
and yuri is hot : agree ! :yes

How cute, Felix the Cat! :)

I swear that their first full length Japanese album info was posted here....

I finally received my copies of the limited edition and limited pressing versions of the single today and I love them! I held out on listening to MR. TAXI and it was definetely worth it! The song is awesome and definetely super catchy as expected! While I prefer the Korean version of the Run Devil Run MV and song, I really enjoyed the Japanese versions and I'm so happy to finally have a REAL dance version of the MV. Anyways, as far as the photobooks for both, while I thought they were nice, I kind of miss the individual full body shot pics like the ones that were in their Gee and Genie singles. But I'm also happy that they did something different or else it would have been much more predictable. I also got the Seohyun card which I love! She gets prettier and prettier every time I see her.

Information about the Japanese album was posted on pg. 5. ;)

Can't wait!! and they're soo sweet <3

yay!!! i love MS performances

^^ FINALLY!
I can't wait to see it, please wear something as sexy as the Yellow Cab outfit :lech

yes!!! ^yep I love the yellow outfits :luv2

+1 for the yellow outfits

^omg, they look gorgeous

cutie pics! I love sica, taeng, and yoona's the most~

Call me rude, but I've always thought hanboks were kind of dumb looking. They make people look silly since they're so wide. At least with kimonos they have the obi, which conforms it to your body shape.

Awww! They look so cute :heart

so, from recent pics/video Yuri is scary skinny now. I'm sad & worried. she used to have the perfect body, don't know why she'd want to lose more weight. :(

http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/4888/004xlw.jpg
http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/3936/003vwj.jpg

she looks so small :0 go eat more yuri! get your perfect body shape back!!

I'm not sure if she wants to loose it. They have a tight schedule, are constantly observed and are used to eating little. So maybe if it's even more stressful than usual, she looses it naturally. There are many people who just can't gain weight and loose it very fast if they are stressed.

Other than that I agree that she should gain weight. Her legs are just a little bit too skinny. Weren't there some photos of a extremly thin Tiffany some months ago? SM should give this girls more rest or at least take better care of them :no.

^yeah, she has been mentioning working out more than usual though. she's intentionally trying to lose weight which is why SONE's are even more worried. she has mentioned since the beginning of April she is exercising more.

but then, some people are thinking she's training to take on the role of an anorexic person in a music video or movie.. but I doubt it.

omg Yuri why did she do this :no ?
Most of the girls look scary thin these days, it breaks my heart to see them like this :(

Whoa, Yuri looks so frail! :(

Lord, are those really her arms? Not good. Not at all. :no

Yuri needs to gain some weight,,,（￣□￣；）

I feel so bad for them. :(
:no
hope they gain back some more..this isn't healthy..

edit: far away initiate!!

Oh my gosh... This is so horrible... Her arms look like pencils! She looks as if she could fall over at any minute! :cry She really needs to take a break, and eat more! She's scary thin...

i don't know what to think, i'm gonna wait till the MS performance to judge

another new Hoot performance (WHY?), but at least they're wearing outfits they only wore in a live once before! love those colorful Hoot outfits.



love Tiffany's cute bow too.
but.. Yuri!!! her arms!! and her lovely healthy looking legs are gone :(

http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/2...ybs1qbbit0.jpg

I hope I don't have to get used to this like with Jessica in her Genie promo days..

^atleast sunny is still smoking hot :Q____
but yeah yuri.. please eat more ;__;

^yep, Sunny is always hot~

Yuri fancam.. she's going to break..

;_;

^OHMYGOD HER ARMSSSSS D: i didnt know it was this bad omg! she's almost as thin as this poor girl:
http://i53.tinypic.com/26393jn.jpg

^ughh yeah soo thin! I miss this Yuri.
http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/7...w6c1qk16ca.jpg
she was thin but looked healthy with some curves. that's like my dream body. but her body now, noo way.

OMG you can really tell the difference!! :(
I really hope she can gain some weight, her arms and legs are like sticks!!

it's real, noooooo, why !!!
i hope she can eat more and has a healthy life

YURI!!! Noooo!! :(
Girl, you should have Sooyoung teach you how to eat properly and elegantly without having to have a diet

Yuri looks like a skeleton,,, specially the arms!
*wonder what's her weight right now?

I'm actually more scared for their Mr. TAXI performance now than excited because of the thought of having to see Yuri's bones pop out all over the place again. it's really upsetting and honestly, her being so thin ruined that last performance for me. it gives me that same feeling when I watch those anorexia documentaries. makes me sad and uneasy.

i believe this wasn't post before

Thanks for posting that! They're all getting really good at Japanese, although Jessica's still seems pretty awful. Did you see the intense way she pointed at the translator at one point?

Good performance though. In-sync with each other like always.

perfect performance, and thank goodness yuri was covering her arms with that jacket.
keep them covered til you gain another 10 lbs back, girl.
they're always better without autotune.

Yuri looks so thin...scary...it's not healthy...
how she lose weight this fast...back to February when they perform run devil run, she still looks healthy
but now..she looks sooooo thin...

^yeah, she lost it really fast. they say the faster you lose weight, the faster you'll gain it back so hoping she'll gain it back soon for not only her image but her health.

btw, on the official site it says big news will be announced on the 16th!
http://www.girls-generation.jp/mrtaxi/

hoping it's album related!

it seems they were lip syncing through whole performance? :laugh

PERFUME's... obsession with them is creepy & I HATE how they speak.

oh God Yuri... :(

^^no, they just had a loud backing track as usual. maybe you need to turn your volume up louder to hear them, but they were all singing live. it was more obvious to me because of the autotune being gone.

NOOOOOOOOOO THEY REMOVED ITTTTTTTTTTTTT :bawl

oooohhh i wonder what this big news is about :OO

I can't get over of how good Sooyoung looked. I'd go gay for her.

Thank you so much for posting the performance. I really loved it and their interview including Perfume's excitement for the song was beyond adorable! I squealed seeing them all together on the same stage! The girls did great and I have to admit, I too was happy that Yuri's arms were covered in this performance as it would have been painful to watch had they not been. As far as the big news portion, I'm assuming it's about the album but I'll be happy about it whatever it is. It's so exciting, I can't wait until the 16th!

the bad thing from Mr.Taxi performance is lipsynching part...
sometimes they even didn't remember the lyrics...they did a good job on dancing part...but singing wise..not that good

Here's another link if anyone wants it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilJyTJDmfSM

Really nice performance!! I hope my single comes soon ;___;

it was cute, they are fans like us :innocent

Yuri looks a little better for me, or maybe it was just the boots and the skirt

and about the BIG NEWS, i hope is the album or another single, or both :P

I really like their improvement on their Japanese
I love to see nearly everyone tries to speak Japanese, not only Syoo and Seo :laugh
Taeng's and Sunny's sounds good so far, and Seo is more fluent than her last time :heart

The performance is nice :yes
and idk if this was lipsynch or not.. since some parts sounded live to me and some don't :laugh

yay for yellow outfits !

the performance was awesome ! But the best part was the fact that the girls didn't use a translator at all :heart .. And aww PerfumexSNSD interactions are adorable :laugh, I didn't know that Nocchi was a big fangirl XD

just saw the perfomance! it was good!! loving the outifts:luv2 and sooyoung looked so so so beautiful there!!!:thud

but yuri should gain some weight again :(

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUNNY!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUNNY!
Stay as SNSD's Sunshine forever!
I hope to see more of your aegyo and skills :heart I'll always be your Sunshiners :laugh

To think of it,
They'll have their Japan concert soon. On the previous concert they had covers of songs, will they have covers too this time? Like JPop covers, that'll be great :yes
Although there is a rumor that say the concert concept would be different, but we'll see :)

Happy Birthday Sunny!

The girls performed Hoot & Gee today at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics Concert


typical performances, nothing special except yuri & tiffany bumping butts @ the end of Gee.

Yuri's weight loss is making me realize how creepy and idiotic so many SONEs are. it's no wonder a lot of people are ashamed to admit they support SNSD. "well her weight loss makes her happy, let's keep supporting yuri and her weight loss!~"
no, health should always comes first. people do destructive things all the time that can make them happy, doesn't mean it's right and we should support them in that behavior. I need to stop reading soshified comments. can't stand some of these "fans".

R.I.P Sooyoung's flawless hair extensions.


And Yuri's curvy body too of course.

Perfume's reactions made me laugh :laugh That would be funny if they did a special performance just for Perfume and instead of saying "Watashi ga kirai na perfume," they said "Watashi ga daisuki na perfume" like Nocchi said xD
Yuri is sososo skinny now, it's scary :cry
But I thought the performance was good :heart

Thanks! Good performance but Yuri's thinness was very... distracting. :tired Luckily, I had the Sex Goddess Sooyoung and Sunshine Goddess Sunny (Happy B-day, btw :heart) grabbing my attention. :love

Perfume tends to be over the top but saying they're being obsessive and creepy is really going overboard. They're fans and just showing their support.

noo!! sooyoung looks so much better with her long hair

Mr. Taxi lives in my head and I can't get it out.

OMG PERFUME AND SOSHI INTERACTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :luv2 first kara and now soshi ah~~ :smitten fany and sooyoung looked really really amazing *__*

Sorry, I don't talk much here (not realy good, I prefer read your posts).
BUT *_____*

OMG, everything is soooooooooo GORGEOUS! I'm at a loss for words, this completely exceeded my expectations! The stan in me couldn't resist, I just preordered both the limited edition and limited pressing versions not too long ago! I can't wait to hear the songs and see the album in person as well as the posters, the photobooks, and the bag! :love

The cover is so gorgeous and the individual shots :luv2 :luv2

lol it seems like I'm the only one planning on getting the box :laugh .. Good now it won't be sold out XD

Preorder links are up at YesAsia:

Limited Edition w/ Poster $97.25 USD
Limited Pressing w/ Poster $54.75 USD
Regular Edition $34.49 USD

The description at YesAsia gives some more details regarding the contents of the box:

"Deluxe First Press Edition includes a bonus DVD with the Japan version of the Gee and Genie music videos, as well as two version of the Mr. Taxi music video. It also comes with a make-up case, a Girls' Generation logo mini-bag, and a 40-page photobook that's only available in this edition."

Wow. With the make-up case and mini-bag this is turning out to be a really girly release. I have no idea if I should keep my preorder for the limited edition at CDJapan or change it to the limited pressing. :P

Edit: Ok, so I figured out that the make-up case they're referring to is probably the box itself. Mini-bag aside, this isn't as overly girly as I thought it was. I'm glad that the box doubles as a practical item; I'm hoping it means that it's durable and high-quality. :)

^40 PAGE PHOTOBOOOOOOOKKK????? man i really want ittt :bawl why are japanese albums so damn expensive :grumpy is there already news about overseas versions?

you do know that you get free shipping at YA if your order is 30 dollars right!

damn they look GREAT on the cover I can't wait until its released!!
I didn't think they would have 7 new songs that definitely adds to the excitement
Go SOSHI!! GO

They updated the album page since you capped that picture and the dance version of MR.TAXI is no longer listed as being on the limited pressing DVD. Of course, we knew about this before, but I thought maybe they added it at the last minute but it looks like it was a mistake. :(

I'm really torn as to what version I should order. I want the most complete edition with the most content but the price and, sad to say, the box kind of turns me off. It's just so big and I don't think it'd be easy to resell if I ever had to/wanted to get rid of stuff. :(
