Yes. Girls Generation and Wonder Girls are the reason for MANY of us to be here.

@12:51 “Girls’ Generation walked so that everyone else could run.” THIS. I’ve never heard truer words. We need more snsd reactions! All of their mv’s and songs are iconic

"Girls' Generation walk, so that other kpop groups can run". Yes!! Say it louder for the people who just arrived into the kpop scene!! Also It'd be nice if you can react to their variety shows because that's how you know them individually. They're also known as variety queens because of their hilarious nature.

Actually, there were not much groups back when they debuted. The next big group debuted 2 years after them which was 2ne1 in 2009. It was really a boy group dominated industry. These girls paved the way for girl groups in korea, and kpop to the world. I would definitely have to agree that their music is timeless compared to older boy groups. If I heard The Boys and Gee in the supermaket, I wouldn't even bat an eye and think that it's just another new kpop song. The MVs I wouldn't say are dated. It's not wrong to say that it is but a perfect word to describe them would be time-appropriate. If 4th gen ggs dressed like this, then that's dated. Hahaha. Anyways, I recommend you guys to listen to their debut song Into The New World. It's super iconic! Alongside Kissing You and Lion Heart. You will soon discover that they are the queens of concepts. They are so versatile and have a diverse discography!

I just love to see “girls’ generation for the first time” the first time I listened to I got a boy I didn’t know what I was feeling 🤣 (I watched first the reaction to I got a boy) snsd definitely became one of my favorite groups, I wished I had met them earlier 🥺

info on i got a boy: (1)each member has her own section of the song, the multiple switchups represent the change from one perspective to the next. (2)the reason yuri was wearing sunglasses was because of an eye stye. (3) "lets bring it back to 140" refers to both the minute/second mark in the studio version of the song(the music video has the added intro) as well as the beats per minute in that section of the music.

Kess' reactions to the split in The Boys and to all the transitions in I Got A Boy are priceless💀 Anyways the one who was wearing sunglasses is that walking icon of Kwon Yuri. Fun fact: when I discovered SNSD for the first time she became my bias just for that look and she's still one of my ults in all kpop, so let's thank those sunglasses😌

Girls Generation Was definitely a different type of group in Korea especially when you're listening to music and style with their voices and range as performers and vocalists

Yes! This totally brought back so many memories. SNSD was one of the first groups that brought me into Kpop and I remember watching compilations of them being dorks on variety shows. It's hard to describe how much influence they had on Kpop in general. Trainees are still learning Into The New World choreo like it's basic training. Taeyeon, their kid leader, is still my ultimate bias to this day. So glad you reacted to these! Also, yes! Please do more. May I suggest F(X) (Jessica from SNSD's little sister Krystal was in this group), Red Velvet, Miss A, 4 Minute, and Sistar. Also maybe one first gen'r, BoA, specifcally her western debut, "Eat You Up"? Oh, how could I forget The Wonder Girls?! Definitely The Wonder Girls (Tell Me, Nobody, Like This, and Be My Baby).

OMG.. yesss to all suggestions but esp Eat You Up by BoA bc that song and her are how I got into Kpop in 2008 🥰

Girls Generation is the reason why I got to know kpop And I think that groups like blackpink, twice, red velvet etc owe everything to GIRLS GENERATION

My bias and first ULT in kpop is girl in glasses aka Kwon Yuri, the OG inventor of viral fancams! "Fun" fact: she had an eye stye when filming, hence the glasses, and could not see sh*t but killed that choreo anyway. Agree that SNSD walked so that others could run, there's a sone in every current group and their debut song, Into the New World is something all gg trainees have to learn. ITNW, is so iconic that it has been used as a sort of unofficial anthem for major events in SK from pride parades to #MeToo rallies and protests against the government. I really really recommend reacting to it and GENIE (because iconic) and then perhaps you can get into their more "recent" stuff (from 2015 lol) Lionheart, You Think and especially All Night 💖 Their japanese discography is also impecable. A few faves: Mr Taxi, Flower Power, Galaxy Supernova.

For me that time in Kpop was defined by SNSD and 2NE1.The mvs for Go Away, Ugly and I am the Best would be a great introduction to 2NE1.

3:07 no because they actually were the ones that made the colored jeans a thing fr

Fun fact: The "girl in the sunglasses", Yuri, was wearing them because she had a stye on her eye during filming.

This is absolutely true! SNSD walked so that every group could run.

18:10 Oh girl, SNSD did all the concepts out there. 😂❤️

There’s quite a nice video ‘how to structure a kpop song’ by 2ndgenbias that’s breaking down common structures and songs that are standing out. IGAB as Bohemian Rhapsody of Kpop is still the most interesting one.

Ohh!!, Catch me if you can, genie, but you can’t forget the debut song “Into The New World”. Seriously tho, when they walk into an award show, EVERYBODY stands and bows

Girls' Generation IS THE MOTHER OF KPOP

SNSD songs and harmonies are legendary, that's not a surprise to anyone who follow Kpop for any considerable amount of time. SNSD choreography have been catchy and clean since the very beginning with "into the new world". But what new kpop fans unfortunately missed out on is the fact that SNSD have very very strong vocals compared to their peers, let alone gen4 girl groups (vocal groups like Mamamoo excluded). Taeyeon has an insanely successful career as a solo singer. Her "killing voice performance" will give you an overview of the diverse sounds that she has and really showcase her vocal prowess. TTS, a subgroup comprised of Taeyeon/Tiffany/Seohyun (the 3 main vocals) has songs focused around vocals as well. Their "cater 2 u" performance to show how well they can sing live. With all the qualities require for them to be every idol's idols for over a decade... the one thing that solidify their fanbase is their bond with each other. They're loud, chaotic, funny, emotional, messy, clumsy, witty... and they're not afraid to show that on camera. That is the single most attractive thing about SNSD to their fans. Their appearances on variety shows have always been amazing entertainment. (you can look up "SNSD 10 years savage moments") With all that being said... welcome to the fandom because you know you're hooked hahah

Girls Generation really describe 'whats kpop like' with their music, please more about Girls Generation ❤️

Yes, it is Minho in the Gee mv!😄 He is also Soshi's favourite. They have a lot of interactions The member with the sunglasses is Yuri (my fave along with Sunny). Kess pointed out her dancing which isn't surprising when she is the 2nd best dancer of the group after main dancer Hyoyeon. Sooyoung and Yoona are also in the dance line. I hope you continue to react to them🙏🏻 And if you want to check out another 2nd gen gg I recommend my other favourite from that generation, T-ara. They debuted in 2009 and like Snsd, haven't disbanded yet. They released two songs last year: All Kill and Tiki Taka

I think G Dragon really started that 'new comeback, new hair' thing that we see so much popularized these days. Also in 'I Got A Boy' all the switch ups think of each change as a different girl talking, telling her story about her BOy and the song becomes a conversation. I love that.

Girls generation are one of two of my favorite girl groups that I love, around that time i liked 2ne1and 4minute , but from girls generation my bias were in a tided between Yoona and Tiffany but when Taeyeon started with her solo i started liking Taeyeon more, and they have a lot of songs that i love, it's hard to choose what song is my favorite,,,, The boys I got a boy Gee ,,,, Are great songs , i also would include,,,, Lionheart Run devil run Genie Dancing queen Mr Mr Paparazzi My oh my,,, And many more it's hard to decide what song to choose as a favorite and for you to react,, Psy might got me curious about kpop but girls generation got me in, and still they are great

Thank you so much for reacting to our Queens👑. SNSD is my ultimate girl group. Many new gg's may come but SNSD is my forever GG.

Girls' Generation and 2NE1 definitely propelled k-pop into the bigger scene in the early 2010s. They were the first k-pop groups a lot of people had seen. I will always remember, I was watching youtube on the TV in 2011 and KZread randomly showed me The Boys and I'm The Best. Those were the huge kpop hits of 2011, before Fantastic Baby and Gangnam Style, and I would have never known them if KZread didn't randomly showed them to me. The funny thing is I hated both of them, I thought those were the weirdest and worst songs I had ever heard ! This is hilarious considering how I worship those songs right now. Thankfully KZread showed me another 2NE1 song in 2012 "I Love You" and that's how the journey truly started. I Love You instantly became one of my favorite songs and 2NE1 became my favorite group. The thing is at the time there were so many other incredible groups in kpop, but I didn't know them. Only in 2015/2017 I started discovering the rest and becoming a real kpop fan.

yeahh i remember back when they realeased the teaser for the boys, almost every agnecies push back or reschedule their artists comeback, just because they scared that they can't compete with GG... and members of GG is highly respected in korea, is just wild how big they are in korea like every modern girl groups and sometimes even boy groups look up to them. #GG4EVA p.s and they did it when the internet is not widely accessable and they weren't soo many social media available back then

You should also look at their japanese releases as well, their sound was a bit different from their korean stuff, but just as good, if not better. Mr. Taxi, Paparazzi, Flower power, come to mind. IGAB basically started this trend of having like 3 different songs in one, and was very polarizing when it came out, people either loved it, or hated it, though it seems that SM does this at least once with the other girl groups, Red Velvet's Zimzalabim, Aespa's Next Level. I really liked Jessica (the other main vocal) a lot, was gutted when she left/got kicked out, the story isn't really clear, I still support SNSD, but I miss her voice in the group. The sunglasses girl in IGAB is Yuri, and the reason she was wearing sunglasses, is she actually had a stye on her eye during that day of filming, so that's why she sometimes has sunglasses, and sometimes not, she is part of the "dance" line SHYY (Sooyoung, Hyoyeon, Yoona, Yuri). Someone else mentioned some other 2nd gen groups, definitely f(x) as the sister group to SNSD, with their own incredible sound and style. Secret, Kara, 9muses, Dalshabet would be good groups for you to check out. One other group who had some awesome music, but was overshadowed by controversy regarding overly sexy concept (being forced on them by the company) was Stellar.

Almost every K-Pop group that does Japanese releases have different sounds than their Korean stuff. Japan LOVES their Guitar music, Rock in general (and maybe even Metal), whereas Korea has been still stuck in the 1950's up until just recently. Just about the only group that I personally know about that sounds close to the same for both Japan and Korea would be Itzy. Voltage is AMAZING and really only the language is different, they have mostly the same sound in Korean.

I really loved how she emphasize that sunny is her favorite 🤣💗

So exciting to witness her finding out SNSD! She has to react to the rest of their videos! KARA is a good one too, I love both groups. BTW, the sunglasses girl is Yuri.

I'd love if you reacted to their debut next! And definitely yes to introducing more older groups, SHINee are my first vote 💙 and more girl groups from that era too

Btw, I Got a Boy was choreographed by Napoleon and Tabitha, a.k.a. NappyTabs (who were a big part of So You Think You Can Dance). They also choreod Exo's Call Me Baby, as well as the Make Your Move movie (starring BoA and Derek Hough of Dancing With the Stars.)

BIBLE OF GIRL GROUP, TEXTBOOK OF GIRL GROUP, IDOL OF GIRL GROUP, ROLL MODEL OF GIRL GROUP = GIRLS GENERATION.

25:05 actually i remember it being both when you listen to just the song with no mv (cause the mv is longer) 1:40 also meant that same part on the song too

regarding the coloured skinny jeans of Gee , SNSD were the ones whom started the īnternational fashion trend and made it popular

"Let's bring it back to 140" - actually goes back to the beat of the song at 1:40 in, and some musicians have said that it goes back to 140 beats per minute - which is a really cool thing they did

Definitely recommend checking out their variety show stuff they are so funny my bias is taeyeon but honestly I've been wrecked by all the members at one point or another. After kara, wondergirls, & snsd debuted in 2007 it really did become a girl's generation with the rise of many prominent girl groups. In the years after 1st generation girl groups disbanding there weren't really any prominent girl groups and all the popular groups were boys. Snsd were one of the few groups who actually stood on equal footing with boy groups

also the reason Kwon Yuri was wearing sunglasses sometimes in the I Got A Boy mv was because during filming she go a stye and i think the guy in the mv is Jongshin from CN Blue

Can't wait till you guys finally arrived at their variety show/funny moment contents. You guys definitely should see them, I feel in love with Girls' Generation through their music but what solidified me as their fan is their funny, crazy, chaotic sides 🤣 great reaction, love how Kess slowly realizing just how crazy I Got A Boy is, it was not called The Bohemian Rhapsody of Kpop for nothing

A true Legend in kpop world. They are the ones who bring kpop to the world. World records and first of first in kpop you'll see it in them. You'll gonna see the growth in their group and how much passion they have for music. They brings us a different styles, diff beats and variety in their songs, their outfits and images, and the theme they used on each song they are releasing. You'll definitely see the evolution of kpop on them. They are on their 30's now and still active on music industry and on their individual career and up until they introduce their selves as Girls' Generation for 15 yrs. Now that they had a comeback it's truelly amazing that they surpass the 10 yrs age of most kpop girl group who disbanded and 15 yrs is not easy man hehehe I'm really happy and emotional for their comeback cause we've been waited for this for 5 yrs and now here they are again performing and did their tv promotions and shows, it's nostalgic and memorable cause they had this comeback for all the SONE that waited, they truelly show how they really love their music, their group and especially us SONE. I'm glad that you introduce SNSD to Kess 😊😍 for sure after watching those 3 videos you'll gonna watch their other videos and Kess will never notice she's a SONE already heheheh Pls watch their debut song "Into The New World" you'll gonna see how it really nostalgic after seeing the FOREVER 1 song. FOREVER 1 is like the INTO THE NEW WORLD Ver.2 😊 Girls' Generation is a true Legend and a true Sunbaes for all the young and new kpop group today. Thank you for loving Girls' Generation. #GG4EVA #FOREVER1

Kess, as you like 'The Boys' so much, I'd suggest that you check out a couple of live performances they did on US Late Night TV (like Dave Letterman) during their US 'The Boys' tour.

Currently, Sooyoung, YoonA, Yuri, Seohyun are all doing mostly K-Drama. Sunny is doing variety shows. Hyoyeon is doing DJ. Tiffany is doing solo music and music shows like Chicago. Taeyeon is doing mostly Solo music since 2015 (most recent Album is INVU in 2022 and nominated in 5 categories for the upcoming MAMA) and one weekly variety show. Jessica is doing her own fashion company since 2015 and recently I heard she joined a Chinese K-pop group.

Girls Generation was one of the few K-pop groups i was introduced to when i first started to listen to them. i gotta say that they are not just the most iconic but they are the blueprint for future female K-pop groups. insofar you were right "Girls Generation walk so others can run." great reaction side note: i always thought they said " I got a boy on my chin." XD

Thank you for this video. It has shown me some of the earlier groups that also explain why MAMAMOO had such a difficult time and had so much to over come. They did not fit this profile at all. But they remade what was acceptable in KPOP. Again thanks for this and keep up the great work. And stay happy girls!

Show her snsd's japanese mv's too!!! They're soooo good ❤️

Yay! A fellow Sunshiner! Luv the Sun Bun!

Yeah, I got a boy is what allowed Kpop songs to mix and match genres within the same song

I remember getting so emotional when The Boys came out and HYO'S RAP PART. At the time she wasn't getting much lines so to see her in the spotlight was so cool

1. The music videos you should review along with "Gee" are "Himnae/Way to Go" and "Dancing Queen." The latter was filmed before "Gee" but was shelved, for what turned out to be four years. At the time, the group feared the company had lost patience and they were headed for disbandment. A bit later, they recorded "Gee" and filmed the music video, which recycled a lot of the art direction in "Dancing Queen." Recording "Gee" gave them confidence that they had a future, and the song greatly exceeded all expectations. "Himnae" is an easy rocker whose video purports to be the behind-the-scenes for "Gee," and is allowed to show some tired faces in the middle of a 20+ hour shoot. 2. The hair is dark and the make-up restrained to set a natural, pure theme. 3. Not coincidentally, "Gee" was released ahead of the final week of Yoona's drama, "You Are My Destiny," whose finale had a 40% rating; essentially, every Korean woman knew Yoona. 4. The best English version of "The Boys" was the extended version performed on David Letterman, where Sunny got very close to Paul's desk. If you watch this, spare a glance for the semi-live band who actually performed on Letterman without being noticed. The next morning, SNSD performed on the Kelly Ripa show and Fany went in with charm turned up to 11. 5. While I'm not fond of "I Got a Boy," Billboard placed it at #23 on their 2014 list of Best Girl Group songs and the highest-ranked K-pop song on that list. It was proclaimed the future of girl group songs. 6. For "I Got a Boy" the hair and costumes reflected a more mature, eclectic theme. 7. It is necessary to experience SNSD's debut "Into the New World" in both original and ballad versions. It became part of the soundtrack of the 2017 Korean anti-government protests. 8. If you are interested in early K-pop, it all started with Seo Taiji and Boys. Taiji popularized hip-hop and sampling in Korea, and ranged from straight ballads to rock to rap-metal. I blame him for making rap breaks obligatory.

Girls Generation started the fashion trends on K-pop idols as they releases MV with new fashion trends every album

i’ve been waiting for this one 😭😭😭 finally love y’all and this vid

Girls generation my first K-pop group

Their reaction is so genuineeee I like it.

i just discovered your video today, and I love all of your k-pop reactions! You guys are awesome, open minded and really enjoy everything.

11:15 - 11:34 this makes sense bc The Boys came out in October 2011 and Exo debuted in March/April 2012. SM definitely upped their production/film quality throughout the 2011-2012/2013 time frame

140 means the time when that part of the song starts. It means 1 minute 40 seconds of their song where they the music just deops differently with “ i got a boy” lyric part

GG has made maybe the most mvs as they were the most successful. I really hope you watch their debut mv. I don't remember the title but it it has an inspiring message along with being a great song. I hope you watch their concert videos in the Tokyo Dome. There are several but one stands out for me. They arrive by UFO!
