SNSD girls never seem to stop, and here they are back again after seven months with their new title song “Hoot“, despite being in the midst of promoting their Japanese singles. With a 009 James Bond-ish concept, the girls have gone retro this time, as they begun their full promotions with their final comeback stage on the October 31st episode of Inkigayo.
& SNSD wants their own radio program SNSD has been taking both Japan and Korea by storm, and it seems like they’ve barely found the time to breathe. On October 30th, the group sat down to meet with a reporter for KBS 2TV’s “Entertainment Relay“. During the interview, the reporter asked about what the group wanted to do in the future. SNSD replied, “We’d like to run an SNSD radio program.” Member Jessica elaborated, “A program where the DJ changes every day. We have a lot of fun things to talk about.”
Sooyoung continued, “We wouldn’t even need to invite a separate guest since we already have so many members.” However, Jessica disagreed and said, “I’d like to invite guests.”
When asked which guest they would like to invite, Jessica thought for a moment before tactfully answering, “Everyone~”
Yesterday on ‘Music Core‘, SNSD made their comeback into the music scene with “Hoot” and also treated fans to a performance of “My Best Friend.” While everyone was primarily focused on their”Hoot” performance, a certain incident in “My Best Friend” ended up becoming the dominant topic of the night.
During their special stage of “My Best Friend,” leader Taeyeon and fellow member Sooyoung were seen exchanging what appeared to be a light peck on the lips. Though they probably did not actually have any lip contact – Taeyeon covered the “kiss” with her hand – they obviously meant the gesture.
When asked, SM Entertainment expressed, “It was just an expression of their friendship and their song is about their friendship so they just wanted to express it in a loving way on stage.”

Kim Seul Mi and Park Eun Ji will not be focusing on their title as ulzzangs, and will work hard to become singers that are loved for their talent.”
The two are currently also working together as clothing brand models.
