We're going to be doing a Girls' Generation deep dive stream this Saturday (1/3) @ 11:30 am EST on our Twitch! We'll be watching ALL of the Japanese MVs over there as well as, bsides, live stages, variety content and much more! Make sure to drop a follow over there so you don't miss the stream! twitch.tv/kessandhan
It is impossible to overstate the importance of Into the New World. The girls spent a YEAR working on this song (including some trainees that didn't make the final cut). In 2016 there were huge protests against the Korean president with giant rallies - and the crowds ended up using ITNW as a protest song. That high note in the song (sung by Taeyeon, no surprise) has been a killer for groups that try to cover it. If you notice, the girls are wearing little to no makeup - its because SM definitely wanted to convey this was a "Girl" group. The scooter, which is fixed by Tiffany (her nickname was pink princess) actually belongs to Shindong from Super Junior. All told, SNSD/Girls Generation has made around 80 mvs (or CF, which is a music video used for a commercial) - a total that no one has come close to.
Soshi debuted REALLY young, Taeyeon (oldest) was only 18 and Seohyun (youngest) was 15 during ITNW. Oh! and RDR era (early 2010) was when Seohyun just turned 18. Also fun fact, 2009~2012 were Soshi’s golden years, hits after hits (Gee - Genie - Oh! - RDR - Hoot! - The Boys - I Got A Boy), each member all had their own gigs from DJing, acting, musicals, MCing, variety shows, modeling, OSTs, CFs, etc., + JP releases (which were all bangers!). Like literally no one could stop them, they were EVERYWHERE.
And then there were the multiple sub-units...just WOW! Literally nothing that at least one of the members could not do. AMAZING ladies, AMAZING, World-Stomping group! :)
Actually Seohyun turned 16 less than 2 months before they debuted and of course Tiffany turned 18 just days before their debut. The real amazing thing is they had their whole first album, with all the hits that would carry them thru to the start of 2009 already recorded and ready to go while they were nearly all still in high school!
@@toyland12 That really is CRAZY. Did they even get a childhood? Good lord. We KNOW they are all hard workers but DAMN! Stealing childhoods is pretty messed up. Glad the labor laws have started to change over there a little bit... I heard about that when somebody was talking about a young member of an already-famous group; the member suddenly was not allowed to be at work or practice during certain hours with the older members...caused quite a stir.
@@jamescurfman3284 This is bit of revisionist history here. SNSD didn't rise to NGG status until "Gee;" it probably also helped that around that time, Wonder Girls had vacated the space as JYP was trying to break them into the American market with "Nobody" (and a weird collaboration with Akon). unsuccessful
@@hanng1242 I meant that these ladies have ALWAYS been THAT GOOD, they were full of talent right from birth, turned that talent to skill and skill to Art. They worked HARD and just kept at it, which is the quality of person that fans look for in Idols, Soloists, Actors, Athletes, what-have-you. Those hard workers who constantly make a conscious effort to keep improving are the people who become Top-Flight World-Class Entertainers. These ladies absolutely EARNED all the accolades they got, even if it took time for them to get to the point of being recognized.
Fun fact: Run Devil Run song has its continuation in their recent ‘Forever 1’ album - the song is called ‘You better run’. You can notice it in their lyrics.
ITNW is just simply one of the most ICONIC songs in kpop period. There's a reason why its still played to this day especially during protests. And is literally known and loved by EVERYONE regardless of age.
Into the new world MV is like their individual dreams.. in their last comeback Forever 1, you can see there some parts connected to their debut which is their dreams.. that's how great they are.. they can do any concepts! Vocals and Visuals are top tiers..
Girl every single one of this dance and song were viral AF, also they made almost every single concept that is out there and the great thing is that they did it first, you know how is a trend that now days every group wants to be the face of a brand, LG, Samsung, Dior, Cartier, channel, you name it Snsd was the brand face in Korea back then, being a SONE was so fulfilling cause they did so much and created so many concept, you never knew what they will come with, they also started a trend where you used matching outfits but the outfits weren’t the same but still looks uniform, they are my pride
Around 2009, they were on virtually every variety show on television, every radio show, Yoona was already in dramas, sooyoung speaking Japanese and Jessica/Tiffany speaking English expanded their popularity to so many demographics from housewives to children in southeast Asia.
Staunch reminder Taeyeon was 18 at debut, which goes to show just how much years in the industry can enhance your voice, her recent years vocals are so insane.
ITNW, as the girls have described is one of their hardest choreographies. They would tell stories about how they would kind of always be moving or jumping, or that their feet were never on the ground or something
The fact that snsd didn't have any flop song and always with full album like that's so slays ok! They did great as a group and individually the reason they're really deserve everything...
the thing about snsd is that theyre all so individually gifted when it comes to stage and screen presence. it shines through even when they're all wearing the same thing.
Express 999, Lips, Check, Echo, Mood Lamp, Soul, Bump It and Oscar are some of their best bsides and some have great stages if y'all want to check them out!
Into the new world is the textbook song for future girl groups and this song has been sung by people for social change. This is their debut song but this song has a lot of meaning
Yay!! I’m so happy an SNSD deep dive is actually coming! Really appreciate the time u make for an older group (a lot our origins and ults 🥲) and love watching your reaction as always~
First of all, gurls thx u for doing this reaction, it means so much to an oldie SONE 😅 2nd: there's a rock version of Run Devil Run, sung live by Taeyeon the tittle was Devil's Cry. 3rd : go watch the sone fave b-sides: You Aholic, Karma Butterfly, Great Escape (live at Japan 3rd tour) it was in one video. And you'll get amazed by their song,choreo n the visuals
Run Devil Run was originally for Kesha, it ended up getting leaked before she released it so SM bought it and became a girls generation song. You can actually find kesha’s version on youtube!
Just to clarify - I don't think it was written FOR Kesha. Kesha recorded the vocals for the demo, and the demo is what's submitted to companies. So RDR was submitted to SM as a demo - it's not as if they randomly came across a "leak"
You got it wrong. The composers for RDR wanted to sell the song, so they got Kesha to sing a demo. Kesha did the demo, but didn't buy the song. Maybe she didn't like it. So the composers put it up for music companies to listen and buy and SM bought it in the end, and gave the song to Girls Generation. The song was never intended for kesha, she just recorded a demo to help sell the song.
@@Nineiseverything Okay that makes sense. So if we ever run across the Demo version of the song, it is basically a leak because it was never actually meant to be released to the public, it's JUST a Demo.
Run devil run was so big they even use that SLOW-MO RUN for AHRI's (a character/champion from the game) in-game dance from LEAGUE OF LEGENDS, it was that big to the extend that they even penetrated MOBA gaming world.
ITNW and Genie are probably the most covered songs by girl groups, i think most of the 3rd and 4th Gen girlies covered at least one of the two. Genie will always be my fave ❤
the CHILLS i always get when i'm listening to ITNW tho ;___ ; i first encountered them and their debut era when i was in highschool too, so basically i kind of grew up along side with their growing popularity in those days. ITNW will always make me feel so nostalgic.
fun fact: snsd started the whole photocard craze with their album oh! they’re the first group to release photocards in their albums 🩷 ps: i love watching ur reactions, keep it up!! 🩷
Thank you for bringing me back to a simpler time. SNSD was my intro to Kpop in 2012 when I was a 19 year old lad. These past few SNSD videos that you’ve done really got to me. I keep getting choked up. SNSD got me through the roughest period of my life and I will always love them but thank you for helping me remember exactly why. Thank you so much. P.S: Their Japanese albums have a lot of my favorite songs. I highly recommend those bangers.
Omg thanks so much for reacting to SNSD. It is always super nostalgic and emotional seeing new people reacting to these queens, I hope you keep doing it because I am pretty sure you will love the rest of their songs, korean and japanese tracks.
gosh, this brings back so many memories. SNSD was the first kpop group I've listen to. When they were at their peak, they are everywhere! INTW was an ICONIC debut song, it became the protest song that Ehwa Uni student rallies against the uni's policies. Genie music show performance became the highest rated performance on any music shows. Oh/ RDR album won them the album daesang at GDA which btw they are the first and only girl group to won in that category till date. I just LOVE them so much!!
i LOVE that you're reacting to oh! it was one of my absolute favorites by them back when it came out (that choreo had me on a chokehold) and so many reactor skip it :,) (plus, run devil run just doesn't feel the same without that last scene lol) also, get ready for snsd's trademark: the long legs visual/leg-choreography + the chanty choruses (the chorus is sung by all the members at the same time in nearly all of their songs, and that just makes it so goosebump-y, i can't explain it) welcome to soshi! right now it's snsd! from now on it's snsd! forever it's snsd! edit: dont worry, you got everyone right! plus, the voice you pointed out both on itnw and on genie is yuri's!
Yeah, groups just don't do Gang Choruses like that anymore... These ladies really are top-notch hard workers and their Director(s) knew what they were doing. AMAZINGAMAZINGAMAZING. :)
Don't call it 'weed', that's what has a NEGATIVE connotation to it. It is Hemp and Hemp is Hemp is Hemp, used all over the world for weaving purposes. Just let it be Hemp. Besides all that, I am 'pretty sure' that she would never have planned on trying to smoke it.
@@DatVideoDoe Do you REALLY think that NOBODY would take it negatively? JUST ME? If so, you are delusional. You should already be aware that some idiotic Karen would definitely take the bait. I was just trying to caution you pre-emptively. If you really feel like being such a jerk about it, you deserve to get stuck in a pointless, time-wasting, energy-wasting circular-argument style endless debate with some wacko. If you actually like doing that then never mind, I won't stop you. Just ignore me. I'll ignore you when you finally get tired of it and need help getting that monkey to leave you alone. If you DON'T like wasting time by having the hassle of some jerk jumping all over you for it, then change it. Totally up to you.
I am here for all of this... i am always down to take a trip down to memory lane. I hope one day you can watch their reality shows... there are oh so many, but they are SO SO good and what makes people fall in love with their personalities. The sisterhood, the love, the chaos, the no filter shenanigans... SNSD is legendary for this
Thank you so much for making reactions to our GG queens 👸! It’s so amazing to see how they have grown up from young girls (Into the new world) to elegant successful women (Forever 1) #GG4EVA 💗
4:52 They Put Taeyeon As A Pilot because she's the leader of the group and they represent that by her being a pilot and leading and the mv is their debut and it's about them entering a new world wich is kpop I guess 😅
I can't wait to see you react to their live stages, espeically their Japan tours! The vocals and dance performances! It's just phenomenal! No wonder that are the legendary GG! 😍
Run Devil Run is what got me into GG. I was a huge Kesha fan and heard this demo she did, and when I tried to find the song it turns out GG sang it. Fell in love from there
Genie is the song that made me a fan of K-pop. I can even specify the moment In the song. I had heard Gee before, and some other songs by k-pop groups, but I hadn't looked any up for myself. When I looked up Genie, and I got to Taeyeon's adlibs in the final chorus (right after "DJ put it back on") I was like "huh! Maybe there is something to this kpop thing after all". That was in 2011, and I haven't looked back since. x) It's really cool that you guys are deep dive of them, and I'm definitely joining the stream on Saturday. I have SO many songs and videos I want to recommend through your Patreon x) As an old SONE I welcome you to the fandom, and I look forward to your journey!
When jyp created TWICE, they declared that they would create a jyp version of Girls' Generation. Girls' Generation is that iconic in K-pop. And when Red Velvet first debuted, sm announced that they would create a group that combines Girls' Generation's popularity with f(x) experimental concepts.
I discovered KPOP in the summer of 2012. I started to watch their videos at the end of the year and became really obsessed. I built a playlist of videos that was over 100. It consisted of live songs, released videos and fan mades where they didn’t release actual videos. Some have been taken down over the years, but when I want a good vibe day I come back to this playlist. They never made a throwaway song.
Genie might not be your favorite at first, but it's definitely a grower, i never listened to it until like 2018 and it's now my favorite SNSD title track along with Mr.Mr. lol, also it's quiet popular within the reactors community, they love Genie way after reacting to it 🤣🤣
Oh! and Run Devil Run are coneccted, the group have one story video version with the twoo videos. The girls in run devil run are the glitch of the computer in Oh! MV because Jessica drope a glass of wather over the computer.
SNSD and TWICE are my ult groups, so this is the beginning of another must-watch series of yours for me! thank you for making such amazing videos for us, and I can’t wait for more!
Can't help dancing while watching this episode. Those kpop golden era days, waaah! I remembered those times that my team were doing covers of SNSD songs in KPOP Festivals in my hometown back then, so nostalgic. Me playing as Taeyeon :) Proud to be a Aunt Fan already hahaha
Oh! Was their carrier single for their 2nd album and when the repackage album went out, Run Devil Run song was added. There was a story version music video for Run Devil Run which is connected to Oh! Mv
Funfact Run devil run was originally for kesha n she sang it but she didnt didnt want it anymore n SM bought the rights for it n gave to Snsd ~ So u can still find a kesha vers for RDR on youtube~~
The ignagural MV of SNSD is about overcoming the difficulties to achieve your dreams. The spirit of the song has made it an anthem for people involved in civil rights in South Korea. Gennie MV was shoot to make them look like they are alo as tall as Sooyoung.
Brings back so many memories! I got into kpop in 2011 and SNSD were the group that made me a kpop fan. Run Devil Run was the first dance I tried to copy all of. I definitely tried the chorus for Gee and Genie before, but I remember I would be dancing run Devil run all round the house! 😂
ITNW is a difficult song to sing with a hard-hitting choreography, and they were singing live most of the time back then. They made it look so effortless, yet they actually were practicing for that song for a whole year before it was ever released. It was already pure muscle memory by the time they actually debuted. More so even now.
There’s another (criminally underwatched) version of the Run Devil Run MV called the Story Version and it actually explains the storyline continuing from Oh!
aaah So nostalgic. I started to know them in Oh! era. Jessica is my bias but Sunny was my first ever bias! I used to watch this show Invincible Youth and she is hilarious! I freakin missed that show! 😂
SNSD was my first kpop group ever, Oh was actually the second kpop song I ever heard (first being Mister Taxi, also by snsd). Run devil run also was one of my favorite and yes I did that run in place move when it came out because thta choreo is iconic x)
It's so good to see you enjoying SNSD! If this deep dive doesn't include the ballad version of Into The New World, I will be sad 😢 (not as sad as I am every time I watch it, though)
You pick the right first 4 songs to start with. I mean this is in your face in terms of their position and their signature looks. Like the highlight of taeyeon as the main vocalist in itnw and genie and being the leader in oh. Jessica’s vocal tone and being blond. Sunnys vocal tone and cuteness. Hyo dance break as main dancer. Tho I can tell they are still figuring out the bermuda triangle cuz I know you’re bound to be confused of the 3.
*Just to add more context to Genie, the music video both of you are viewing is the 3rd rendition. The first had stylistic accessories that are not historically/socially accepted. The second was lost due to either RUclips or SM transitioning to some new system/categorisation. So technically, if Genie, without those reuploads, would have over 150 million views, at the minimal, making it one of SNSD's most popular music videos in their collection. Why? A major reason: The South Korean soldiers then absolutely loved the uniform concept.*
Also, Just a tip though, if you see "Into the new world BALLAD version", in the recommendations, maybe wait with that video. There's a Tokyo Dome version that is Iconic, but you should save that for later. It's something you'll want to watch when you're good and deep into the "lore" and fandom. Or at least when you've seen "Mr. Mr" on your deepdives. (if you're doing the in chronological order)
INTW introduced me to kpop ,i saw the mv n performance on tv and i was HOOKED !!!! then with the years i knew more n more grps n soloists , i am grateful being a sone n a multi stan since late 07.

You guys bring back memories 😢😊
It’s 5:30 am my local time when you guys live stream 🥲
oh noooo i want to see the japaneses songs reaction here 😩😩😩
Japanese mvs are the ones most likely to get tagged and give strikes. Their companies are extremely protective.@@MrSalles15
The ballad version of ITNW is seriously the most hardcore try not to cry challenge of the history 😅
yes, please react to it 😭
DO NOT REACT TO THIS SONG EARLY ON
I need this reaction!!!
Nah bruh we ain’t doing that shizzz here
Do it much Much later on (or at least after watching half of their discographies).
It's like a final boss moment 😢.
Into the New World will always be my favorite debut song of all time. It’s just too iconic
That song will always be the greatest debut song ever curious to think about what K-pop would be today without girls generation?
samee❤❤
Soshi debuted REALLY young, Taeyeon (oldest) was only 18 and Seohyun (youngest) was 15 during ITNW. Oh! and RDR era (early 2010) was when Seohyun just turned 18.
Also fun fact, 2009~2012 were Soshi’s golden years, hits after hits (Gee - Genie - Oh! - RDR - Hoot! - The Boys - I Got A Boy), each member all had their own gigs from DJing, acting, musicals, MCing, variety shows, modeling, OSTs, CFs, etc., + JP releases (which were all bangers!).

i swear to god you'd be amazed by the quality of their live stages for into the new world. rookies singing live with such choreo...man...
And that is the how and the why of them becoming The Nation's Girl Group. Absolute K-Pop Royalty, every single member.

Devil's Cry -> Run Devil Run -> You Better Run
YES. And it's amazing! I hope they react to the whole Forever 1 album, it's so so good.

I can never listen to INTO THE NEW WORLD without tearing up UGH THE BALLAD VER IS FOREVER ENGRAINED IN MY HEAD
Girls Generation 's live performance also gorgeous
Staunch reminder Taeyeon was 18 at debut, which goes to show just how much years in the industry can enhance your voice, her recent years vocals are so insane.
Into the New World. Everytime I watch/listen to this damn song I’ll be tearing up.
ITNW, as the girls have described is one of their hardest choreographies. They would tell stories about how they would kind of always be moving or jumping, or that their feet were never on the ground or something
isn’t it also the one they practiced the most, they’re so in sync in that. i think the catch me if you can choreo looks difficult too.
They practiced ITNW for 1-2 years before debut... While CMIYC is considered as their hardest choreo, I don't think they practiced it as long as ITNW.
10:12 Hyoyeon would beg to differ. As the wise woman once said, "we just said tell us your wish, we didn't say we'd grant it."
The fact that snsd didn't have any flop song and always with full album like that's so slays ok! They did great as a group and individually the reason they're really deserve everything...
I genuinely don’t think there will ever be a debut song as iconic and impactful as itnw, that song has my entire heart and soul
the thing about snsd is that theyre all so individually gifted when it comes to stage and screen presence. it shines through even when they're all wearing the same thing.
Into the New World will always be my favorite song of any genre
Their korean discography are top tier but their japanese discography are on a different level and I cant wait for your reaction to it 🤧
Express 999, Lips, Check, Echo, Mood Lamp, Soul, Bump It and Oscar are some of their best bsides and some have great stages if y'all want to check them out!

In the MV of OH!, they chose the numbers on their clothes themselves, and the numbers have special meanings.🥰🥰🥰
gosh, this brings back so many memories. SNSD was the first kpop group I've listen to. When they were at their peak, they are everywhere!
INTW was an ICONIC debut song, it became the protest song that Ehwa Uni student rallies against the uni's policies.

also, get ready for snsd's trademark: the long legs visual/leg-choreography + the chanty choruses (the chorus is sung by all the members at the same time in nearly all of their songs, and that just makes it so goosebump-y, i can't explain it)
welcome to soshi!
right now it's snsd!
from now on it's snsd!
forever it's snsd!
edit: dont worry, you got everyone right! plus, the voice you pointed out both on itnw and on genie is yuri's!

Thanks a lot for ur reaction guys... so nostalgic.... Girls' Generation #GG4EVA ❤
Jessica’s hemp/weed necklace will forever be iconic in ITNW
Don't call it 'weed', that's what has a NEGATIVE connotation to it. It is Hemp and Hemp is Hemp is Hemp, used all over the world for weaving purposes. Just let it be Hemp. Besides all that, I am 'pretty sure' that she would never have planned on trying to smoke it.
@@jamescurfman3284 YOU believe it has a negative connotation. Many others, like myself, do not.
@@DatVideoDoe Do you REALLY think that NOBODY would take it negatively? JUST ME? If so, you are delusional. You should already be aware that some idiotic Karen would definitely take the bait. I was just trying to caution you pre-emptively.
If you really feel like being such a jerk about it, you deserve to get stuck in a pointless, time-wasting, energy-wasting circular-argument style endless debate with some wacko. If you actually like doing that then never mind, I won't stop you. Just ignore me. I'll ignore you when you finally get tired of it and need help getting that monkey to leave you alone.
If you DON'T like wasting time by having the hassle of some jerk jumping all over you for it, then change it.
Totally up to you.
I am here for all of this... i am always down to take a trip down to memory lane. I hope one day you can watch their reality shows... there are oh so many, but they are SO SO good and what makes people fall in love with their personalities. The sisterhood, the love, the chaos, the no filter shenanigans... SNSD is legendary for this
OH! has the best snsd fanchants just saying *o* (well, snsd fanchants have been epic, but OH! had names in it so haha)
Thank you so much for making reactions to our GG queens 👸! It’s so amazing to see how they have grown up from young girls (Into the new world) to elegant successful women (Forever 1) #GG4EVA 💗
4:52 They Put Taeyeon As A Pilot because she's the leader of the group and they represent that by her being a pilot and leading and the mv is their debut and it's about them entering a new world wich is kpop I guess 😅
I can't wait to see you react to their live stages, espeically their Japan tours! The vocals and dance performances! It's just phenomenal! No wonder that are the legendary GG! 😍
Koreas Nation Girl Group - The Legendary SNSD
Run Devil Run is what got me into GG.
I was a huge Kesha fan and heard this demo she did, and when I tried to find the song it turns out GG sang it. Fell in love from there
Genie is the song that made me a fan of K-pop.
I can even specify the moment In the song. I had heard Gee before, and some other songs by k-pop groups, but I hadn't looked any up for myself.
When I looked up Genie, and I got to Taeyeon's adlibs in the final chorus (right after "DJ put it back on") I was like "huh! Maybe there is something to this kpop thing after all".
That was in 2011, and I haven't looked back since. x)
It's really cool that you guys are deep dive of them, and I'm definitely joining the stream on Saturday.
I have SO many songs and videos I want to recommend through your Patreon x)
As an old SONE I welcome you to the fandom, and I look forward to your journey!
there are SO MUCH content that i want you guys to see so its so difficult to list them all out HAHAHA
all i can say is that you're in for a treat :)
Even after more than 10 years, Oh! is still my favorite song
When jyp created TWICE, they declared that they would create a jyp version of Girls' Generation. Girls' Generation is that iconic in K-pop.
And when Red Velvet first debuted, sm announced that they would create a group that combines Girls' Generation's popularity with f(x) experimental concepts.
Girls' Generation is K-pop's blueprint 🙇🏻♀️
I discovered KPOP in the summer of 2012. I started to watch their videos at the end of the year and became really obsessed. I built a playlist of videos that was over 100. It consisted of live songs, released videos and fan mades where they didn’t release actual videos. Some have been taken down over the years, but when I want a good vibe day I come back to this playlist. They never made a throwaway song.
There’s a version of Run Devil Run that conects this one with Oh! It’s like a fight between them, love it ❤
Genie might not be your favorite at first, but it's definitely a grower, i never listened to it until like 2018 and it's now my favorite SNSD title track along with Mr.Mr. lol, also it's quiet popular within the reactors community, they love Genie way after reacting to it 🤣🤣
Oh! and Run Devil Run are coneccted, the group have one story video version with the twoo videos. The girls in run devil run are the glitch of the computer in Oh! MV because Jessica drope a glass of wather over the computer.
SNSD and TWICE are my ult groups, so this is the beginning of another must-watch series of yours for me! thank you for making such amazing videos for us, and I can’t wait for more!
Can't help dancing while watching this episode. Those kpop golden era days, waaah! I remembered those times that my team were doing covers of SNSD songs in KPOP Festivals in my hometown back then, so nostalgic. Me playing as Taeyeon :) Proud to be a Aunt Fan already hahaha
You're right, the blonde one in the MV "Oh!" is Jessica ❤
Oh! Was their carrier single for their 2nd album and when the repackage album went out, Run Devil Run song was added. There was a story version music video for Run Devil Run which is connected to Oh! Mv
You guys should watch SNSD - You Think. Their vocals is soooooo GOOD❤
I'm so proud of me because I'm a SONE 💖
SNSD, the best group & artist foever 💖
YALLLL Girls Generation is THE GROUP
Funfact Run devil run was originally for kesha n she sang it but she didnt didnt want it anymore n SM bought the rights for it n gave to Snsd ~ So u can still find a kesha vers for RDR on youtube~~
Check out their concert version. They are not only idols but also models. The way they walk on stage is very famous, they are like catwalk models
Oh! and Run Devil Run actually has an mv of the story version, i like to watch those two mvs until now
like they're the best gg ever, i love them so much
Girl's generation is too iconic to forgoten like ...
I looooove when someone else is deep diving to SNSD content 😭
FUNFACT : YURI, YOONA , SEOHYUN known as the BERMUDA TRIANGLE back in the days their visuals may confuse you who's who 😅
The ignagural MV of SNSD is about overcoming the difficulties to achieve your dreams. The spirit of the song has made it an anthem for people involved in civil rights in South Korea.
Gennie MV was shoot to make them look like they are alo as tall as Sooyoung.
For some certain members, I bet that is one wish they had among many... lol
@@jamescurfman3284🤣😂😅
Brings back so many memories! I got into kpop in 2011 and SNSD were the group that made me a kpop fan.
Run Devil Run was the first dance I tried to copy all of. I definitely tried the chorus for Gee and Genie before, but I remember I would be dancing run Devil run all round the house! 😂
Omg! YOU BETTER DO THEIR JAPANESE DISCOGRAPHY. Those are treasures 💗🎉
ITNW is a difficult song to sing with a hard-hitting choreography, and they were singing live most of the time back then. They made it look so effortless, yet they actually were practicing for that song for a whole year before it was ever released. It was already pure muscle memory by the time they actually debuted. More so even now.
THANK YOU SO MUCH KESS & HAN! Hope you continue deep diving to my girls! I really miss SNSD contents like this. I can't wait for more. Love this! 💗
There’s another (criminally underwatched) version of the Run Devil Run MV called the Story Version and it actually explains the storyline continuing from Oh!
I'm a BIG FAN of Baby Baby MV and Way to Go MV, because they just having fun in front and behind the scenes !
Their Japanese discog changes lives 😭
Me being SONE from 2009 is the best part of my life 😢
aaah So nostalgic. I started to know them in Oh! era. Jessica is my bias but Sunny was my first ever bias! I used to watch this show Invincible Youth and she is hilarious! I freakin missed that show! 😂
Thank you for reaction 😊😊😊. GG's songs are iconic.
There actually is a continuation of Oh! mv in Run Devil Run but it’s in the story ver. of the mv
I wish Kesha had released a studio version of "Run Devil Run" alongside GG's version.
I really liked the part where you guys re-acted legendary groups. Keep waiting and watching.🎉
You guys should watch the story version of Run Devil Run.
Their side tracks are also amazing and recommend listening too. Don't forget their hilarious video reactions
I'm so excited to watch your video's reaction for Girl's Generation 😍
I AM SO GLAD that you two got around to reacting to K-Pop ROYALTY. Luv ya both!
SNSD was my first kpop group ever, Oh was actually the second kpop song I ever heard (first being Mister Taxi, also by snsd). Run devil run also was one of my favorite and yes I did that run in place move when it came out because thta choreo is iconic x)
It's so good to see you enjoying SNSD!
If this deep dive doesn't include the ballad version of Into The New World, I will be sad 😢 (not as sad as I am every time I watch it, though)
The greatest thing about snsd is the greatness of their voices combine as an unit is unmatched. Greatest harmony in K-pop girl group history
You pick the right first 4 songs to start with. I mean this is in your face in terms of their position and their signature looks. Like the highlight of taeyeon as the main vocalist in itnw and genie and being the leader in oh. Jessica’s vocal tone and being blond. Sunnys vocal tone and cuteness. Hyo dance break as main dancer.
Tho I can tell they are still figuring out the bermuda triangle cuz I know you’re bound to be confused of the 3.
*Just to add more context to Genie, the music video both of you are viewing is the 3rd rendition. The first had stylistic accessories that are not historically/socially accepted. The second was lost due to either RUclips or SM transitioning to some new system/categorisation. So technically, if Genie, without those reuploads, would have over 150 million views, at the minimal, making it one of SNSD's most popular music videos in their collection. Why? A major reason: The South Korean soldiers then absolutely loved the uniform concept.*
waiting for more snsd reaction love u guys
Also, Just a tip though, if you see "Into the new world BALLAD version", in the recommendations, maybe wait with that video.
There's a Tokyo Dome version that is Iconic, but you should save that for later.
It's something you'll want to watch when you're good and deep into the "lore" and fandom.
Or at least when you've seen "Mr. Mr" on your deepdives. (if you're doing the in chronological order)
INTW introduced me to kpop ,i saw the mv n performance on tv and i was HOOKED !!!! then with the years i knew more n more grps n soloists , i am grateful being a sone n a multi stan since late 07.
