What did the SNSD girls feel about debuting in America?

SNSD girls talked about their successful debut in America.

Recently, Taeyeon, Sooyoung, Hyoyeon, and Seohyun of SNSD appeared in a feature called Dispatch Interview of JTBC’s News 10 which aired on February 6.

Sooyoung said, “We all have seen our own appearance in American TV shows. We couldn’t believe it although we were watching it with our own eyes. I still can’t believe that it’s really happening.”

Seohyun added, “It felt wonderful, yet some mistakes that we made during the performance caught my eyes. We told ourselves to give better performances in the future.”

As the first Korean artist to be on American broadcast, SNSD appeared in CBS’s The Late Show with David Letterman and ABC’s Live! With Kelly on January 31 and February 1.

After the show, SNSD has become the center of attention in global media, and the popular American newspaper, Wall Street Journal, reported about their potential success.

Right after landing in Korea, Taeyeon said in an interview with JTBC, “It was wonderful to see a number of people recognizing us. When we performed in Paris, there was also a crowd of people at the Eiffel Tower who recognized us, and this whole thing just amazes me.

I think many people recognized because they tried to see us many times on TV, not because we’ve become popular.” Next to her, Sooyoung added, “Now, I have this ambition to win some awards in America. If AMA or EMMY are willing to call us, we…”

Finally, the girls talked about recent paparazzi pictures which embarrassed them by showing them resting very “comfortably” in a plane. They also shared their bold ambition to perform in global market: “If we have a chartered flight, we will be able to rest a bit more comfortable. If we are talking about going global, we need a global jet (chartered plane).”
