Beep Beep! Pick up the phone! It's Girls Generation's 18th thread on the line!

[kimmeh]

I'd add Tae on the 4th, because her energy in this vid is just too adorable!

[marty]

I love how everyone of them is so different and adorable in their own way!
Like, Seohyun always makes me laugh when she tries to be supercute like Sunny (she's the serious and responsible kind of girl) and Tiffany wouldn't stop smiling even if threatenedXD
And Taeyeon always cool in every situation (she's not the leader for nothing!)

[TRANS] 2013 Girls' Generation World Tour -Girls&Peace- starts off this weekend in SEOUL!! Ps. Everybody watch love&girls PV & make sure you memorize the shampoo dance Love&Girls' first performance! It will be revealed for the first time on 8th June at the Seoul concert! Let's all whistle and do the shampoo dance together (whistle) kekeke totally excited!! Let's meet on Saturday (heart) #GGworldtour #GG #girlsgeneration

shampoo dance? Really? Thats what they called it?

Also, PHOTOSHOP EXPLOSION ALL OVER THEIR FACES.
In all honesty, can we please move away from fly attendant theme? Flower Power had it, GIRLS & PEACE had it, and now this tour has it too?

[marty]

^
Thanks for posting.
Mhhh... that's really not a remarkable picture, isn't it? They litterally look all the same and the uniforms are so plain. And I agree, the fly attendant theme was nice in FLOWER POWER, so so in GGII, and here is overused and plaaaain.

[Utena]

I'm pretty sure this tour will be the same as the Japanese one anyways..

[ExodusUK]

The tour is called -Girls Generation Girls & Peace World Tour-..makes sense for the tour to keep the theme of the album going!

[kimmeh]

I know @_@ but i'm still tired of it. They could at least have used some more fun costumes. That looks like what my grandma could wear

[ahtka-chan]

I love Jessica because she's the only one who's not pretending there ♥ I mean, you guys really think that all that fun and happiness from the other 8 girls is genuine?

[terra]

^We cannot say for sure about how genuine their happiness is, but after watching reality shows and TV performances I can say that they're not always happy all the time, and they're just like us, a person with personality flaws and etc. One of the great "actress" in term of looking happy for the sake of being professional is Sunny although sometimes she just can't handle the tiredness and everything she looked grumpy lol Jessica is just like that from the very beginning, Taeyeon seems to show some personality change/matured more, etc etc

Regarding the tour, I also wish they come up with something new although I realize that SM is a cheap company they'll do anything to tighten up their budget on an already established artist. If I can really hope, I hope they'll change the costume and add more songs to the setlist/solo performances

[ExodusUK]

I CAN'T

[SKYia]

Hyo is getting prettier and prettier everyday.

[Utena]

I hope she stays blond forever coz it suits her so well ♥ not that light though, I prefered her previous haircolor

[kimmeh]

I think the eyebrows is 80% of the change. Seriously though.
They used to be dark, shapeless and almost angry-shaped


Now they're thinner, softer and in a lighter shade



Talking about increased beauty, holy cow check out Seo these days:

[terra]

^I agree, eyebrow seems not significant in look but it actually helps alters the look. Like Taeyeon who usually don't have eyebrows visible until she's on stage XD

Wow Seohyun looks super hot in that one!

[marty]

Hyoyeon fits Topshop style perfectly!! She's looking SO NICE, I just can't.

[ExodusUK]

OMG her hiragana..I can't!

[emi♡]

Seohyun is perfect.

I'm glad they changed hyo's eyebrows. The flat shape fits her face better, and the brown makes her seem less "dark".

[marty]

^^
Thanks so much for that! Fanny <3 <3
