Reacting to Girls Generation's ICONIC debut! "Into The New World & Girls Generation" MV REACTION!

[@MannyHuhnni]

Austin: 'I havnt seen Taeyeon yet' Taeyeon: literally starts the song.

[@joeandreancw8828]

That's what i thought 🤣

[@lyzaborjal]

Fun fact: Into The New World doesn't have a single english word in the entire song. 💡 MOST ICONIC KPOP DEBUT SONG. 💯

[@flamex4real]

Might be because the international market was pretty much non existent when this came out.

[@evestar775]

@@flamex4real I don't think so it's just about the international/western market, I'm pretty sure S.E.S used some English words in their hit song called "I'm your girl".

Title: Girls' Generation Album: Girls' Generation Artist: Girls' Generation

[@Lena-zn4re]

The reason "Girls Generation" sounds like it's from the 80's is because it is lol. This version is a remake of Lee Seung Chul's original song "Girls' Generation" that was released for his album way back in 1989. It's also the inspiration for their group name "SNSD" or "Girls' Generation".

[@signingoffbye]

Hiiii

[@evestar775]

@ryanyoung aren't also they decided it since they debuted where male k-groups dominates the industry?

[@MannyHuhnni]

"Im doing so good knowing their names now that its on their shirts!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@o-mega199]

I think that important 😅

[@snsdtwinkle]

“Was that Jessica?” Me: OMG YES “Or was that Jessica?” Me: noooo 😂😂😂

[@manyejoi]

I totally agreed on not watching the ballad version if you're not totally into snsd yet. I really don't want to watch people reacting to it without knowing the context of the whole performance. I get disappointed somehow. As sone, i want to share to baby sone the feelings and experiences i had when watching the girls. I want people to connect and relate on why SNSD is worth stanning for.

[@MannyHuhnni]

Exactly ❤️

[@o-mega199]

Are you watching Shaun from Brit kpop? He crying when watching ITNW Ballad ver.

[@thea.25]

Yes. 💗

[@mikanlin]

I agree. I've seen other reactors reacting to it right away just because it's popular and emotional and they cry. And I'm like, 'Did you really feel it? It's really sad for someone who's with them for a long time.'

[@klay374]

very well said

[@Hy-BridAbroad]

Just so you know, Into the New World is the single most iconic debut song among girl groups (and probably any idol group). Every girl group trainee from pretty much every company must learn this song and dance during their training process because of this song's vocal and choreo combination. It's a test for trainees to see how good their endurance and breathe control is. Every girl group even debuting today knows this song. In addition, ITNW is still incredibly relevant today as it is consistently used in activist movements such as LGBT parades, during the MeToo movement, and as South Korea protested to eventually successfully impeach and remove their former President.

[@lyzaborjal]

UP! 💯

[@prasetyoaji3105]

yeah, everyone need to read/watch the translation lyrics to fully understand the song's impact.

[@allenjhondeguma6457]

Up

[@myamaize2729]

Mhm! ITNW is also considered as “Koreas official song of hope”

[@wsol80]

@@prasetyoaji3105 Exactly! The theme of Into the New World is they are entering a new exciting chapter of their lives, leaving all of their sadness of the past behind, and though they know the future will be rough, they will face it together. It is incredibly relevant to the industry and the trials they face. Even Dreamcatcher did a live performance cover when they debuted.

[@coolgirl312]

To be fair, Kpop didn’t start putting captions on their music videos until very recently, like 2-3 years ago. So anything from before 2017 often doesn’t have subtitles. They don’t go back and subtitle the old MVs.

[@jareveronica7903]

At the time KZbin don't have captions/subtitles system yet.

[@mysoneluv]

It's still amazing how snsd performs their debut song live and dance the intense choreo.

[@born2b646]

People stanned them for a loooot of reasons the vocals being a huge factor but they're also such good performers all around not to mention they were and still are one of the funniest bunch to ever exist, they excelled in whatever they really lived up to their name and they made it their generation

[@abisolaabass-alesinloye]

As Taeyeon said, "listen girls, this is our generation" lol

[@yeonjungcutie6172]

Sadly couldn't see them live, but I have watched their concert dvds and they are truly AMAZING performers, those concerts were incredible.

[@abisolaabass-alesinloye]

@@yeonjungcutie6172 for real. No one comes close for me and SNSD wasn't even the first group I came to know of but they just spoke to me and I have no regrets

[@musiclover4roml]

People started to really love SNSD only in 2009, after their comeback with GEE. For the first year and a half of their career they were one of the most hated groups in Korea. And one of the main reasons was their strong bond with their labelmates Super Junior and TVXQ! - 2 of the most popular male groups at that time (in 2008 TVXQ!'s fandom - Cassiopeia - was listed in Guinness World Record Book as the biggest fandom in the world with more than 800 000 members). They were called "Plastic Generation" etc. In 2008 Girls' Generation went through the "Black Ocean" at Dream Concert. Everybody but Sones turned their lightsticks down and during their performance with "Girls' Generation" people were screaming: "Wonder Girls!" (WG was a female group under JYP, one of the most popular and influential groups). SNSD went through a lot of shit on their way, even after they became the National Girl group.

[@soshiibang]

loved this! ITNW is the most iconic kpop debut and their vocals were out of this world, especially for a debut song. The choreo is also really intense and high energy, and they performed all their debut stages singing live while dancing the full choreo which is super impressive and why all trainees have to learn this song. I'm glad you are waiting to do the ballad version, but if you still wanted to check out a live stage of ITNW before then, the performance from their Girls & Peace tour is also iconic and I would definitely recommend it. Their song Girls' Generation has an 80s feel to it because the original song by Lee Seungcheol was released in 1989, which is also the year most of the girls were born in so it is special to them.

[@coolgirl312]

Into the New World is one of the most iconic debut songs. It’s literally the start of the girl’s generation. It’s probably still one of the most covered Girl Group songs today, I feel like almost every female idol has performed this at least once in their training or idol career. You know it’s an older song since the MV is not in widescreen format. Apparently the girls practiced the song for over a year before they debuted.

[@toyland12]

Instruments: Yes, Seohyun, being the daughter of a piano teacher, is quite good with piano and has actually played live before. Everything else, not so much. Sooyoung, ever the actress, actually did take some "lessons" from No Min Woo, the drummer of SM's band TRAXX before shooting the MV, but she's just really doing a good job of faking it here. There are several famous drummers who also sing lead vocals, BTW. Some other members can play keyboards and Taeyeon "played" guitar in a musical after this, but for this video and years later when they pretended to be a band in My Oh My, it was all fake. The amazing thing about the early SNSD singles up to Gee was the fact they were all "in the can" and recorded before they ever debuted, meaning that the majority of the members were still in High School and under 18 when Into the New World, Girls Generation, Kissing You, Baby Baby and many more were recorded! The MV's were recorded later thru 2008.

[@MsAsh3070]

Tiffany can also play the flute.

[@yoong7639]

Into the New World is the most iconic debut song until now. Its being used on a lot of auditions and even used on political rallies nd demonstrations in korea. SNSD became popular for *vocals *dance synchronization *trendsetters *body proportion *visual (esp. Yoona until now she tops visual reputation for girl groups)

[@claudenyne]

It's funny how you said, "is the reason people stan them back in the day is because of their vocals?" They've been told they seemed like a dance cover group more than an idol group when they were advertising their debut and so they proved them wrong by flashing them their great vocals while dancing! *I love em*

[@isabellemaria5235]

You should see Into the new world live performances like the normal version , the acapella one and the ballad ( this last one is better to see after you are emotionally involved with the group ) but all of them are really good 😊! This song is so powerful and it was even used in protests in korea

[@samiachowdhury1986]

Acapella version for sure before the ballad!

[@igwSeo3019]

Up

[@melodies_memoryofexy1006]

Their remix performance are awesome

[@MannyHuhnni]

Yes the 2nd gen caption struggle is real. At least, you're experiencing those MVs the same way us Sones did back then 😂

[@DreamWishx]

ITNW is so iconic that it has become a sort of national anthem in SK and it's usually sung during Pride parades and anti-government protests, notably the one that ended with the impeachment of Park Geunhye. Fun fact, when this happened in 2016 it reached #1 in SK charts for the first time (it hadn't reached #1 when released). Please check the lyrics if you haven't, you'll understand why they're so relevant and why the ballad version is so emotional. Strong voice at 3:47 is Yuri. Sadly she was not trained as a vocal since her position was dancer, visual/actress line and eventually lost confidence in her vocals.

[@danielaarredondo5183]

You are literally listening to the anthem of all debuts, this song is so historical that all kpop trainees and rookies dance it, it is the reason why several kpop artists are where they are today, it is the song that is most used for marches , protests, women's rights, LGBTTIQ march, student marches across ASIA is the kpop anthem, SNSD debuted with mega difficult choreography, high vocals, or makeup, and on stage they were incredible, we love a historic girl group

[@yujimins0411]

Sir Austin: "So is that why people stan the Girls' Generation back in the days.. for the vocals?" Me: a big YESSSSSS ♥️

[@spencernguyen2642]

Jessica and Taeyeon Harmony on ‘Girls’ Generation’ is *chef’s kiss*

[@lykalouise6489]

SNSD's INTO THE NEW WORLD is actually often used in rallies and such.. recently in Thailand they played ITNW and sung with it, because the meaning is just the right words for what they want with their country.💖💖💖💖💖 PS. Also looking forward to watching you react to the ballad, I have cried to that ver. a million times 🙃

[@hope9051]

You're right Sir Austin, we stan them because of their strong vocals and talents + their dorky personality 😊 Everyone knows how pure they are since they debuted and even though they are all a ladies now their personalities never changed. Everyone who worked with them said that they feel safe working around snsd because they know how to appreciate the hard work of people who worked with them.

[@fanyeojachingu5530]

Girls’ Generation is so popular because they are a complete package group from vocals, dance lines, visuals, being variety queens. They all have that. Imagine, every announcement of their comeback the Naver shuts down because there are a lot of people waiting for them. Also, the fact that they opened doors for these powerful generations of girl groups is so cool. They dominated the industry that was only focused on boy groups. They are worth stanning for, and they are real legends. After years of being active in the industry, people are still longing for them and waiting for their comeback. You will stan a lot of groups in today’s time but GIRLS’ GENERATION IS OUR HOME. And I’m not exaggerating because my heart still looks for them.

[@Pinobbi]

one interesting thing, Austin, is groups usually wear nametags on their shirts during practice for shows/festivals, even more "veteran" groups. SNSD is an exception, they are exempt from wearing nametags because they're do well known and respected!

[@honestfan9801]

I love this (into the new world) video simply for the fact that they didn't have any makeup on (and the iconic song itself). The song is about Girls doing anything they want and not being held back by convention and stereotype. Very fitting for the group. Airplane girls = Taeyeon and Sooyoung Graffiti girls = Jessica and Sunny Motorcycle = Tiffany Coffee shop = Yuri Dance break = Hyoyeon Dress maker = Yoona Ballet = Soehyun Girls Generation song is actually an 80s song. Fun fact. Most of the girls were born in 1989 and this song was originally released in 1989.

[@kittyangelzzz6512]

INTO THE NEW WORLD YES There's a reason why it's the first on my playlist

[@marcerieti_exo-l]

Austin everytime Yuri sings: oh, I love her voice. How is she? Just remember her face and admit she's your favorite already... Hahaha.

[@MannyHuhnni]

The first notes of ITNW are so iconic... Goosebumps

[@aden1353]

Honestly they have the best ballad songs ever. I hope you will react to their ballad song also like Forever.

[@suho_bunny_jm]

Girl's Generation are Queens... No one can beat them... They are so Iconic.... (Fun fact - Chanyeol has appeared in some Girl's generation Mvs)

[@CFAnne]

ITNW! Iconic! It’s such an anthem of a song and every female idol has practically covered it. It’s such a special song for so many people. I’m glad you liked it! No worries about not recognizing them. I had a hard time too because they looked so different back then.

[@winterinjuly4901]

The song Girls’ Generation, or literal translation “An Era of Maidens” is a song that was released in 1989, the same year where most of the members were born. Coincidence? I think not lol.

[@mikxyeppi482]

This just gives me goosebumps. For some reason, it just feels like the first time again. Glad to revisit and experience this journey with you, Sir Austin! Also, before listening to ITNW ballad version, I suggest listening first to their ITNW performance in their Girls&Peace Tour.

[@validb1230]

People Stan them for a lot of things. The reason why we have a lot of girl groups today is because of them. There weren’t much girl groups back then. They went through black ocean, which is when the whole crowd turns off their light stick and stays quiet so it felt like they were performing to no one. Everything was so black, it looked like no one was there to support them. But they made it through. And was one of the first groups to make it to Ten years Together. These girls are an inspiration to kpop idols now. They have done so many different concepts. Which is one of the first in kpop to have different type of songs and concepts. I mean Yoona created the visual, center position, Taeyeon the vocal queen that all idols look up to, Hyoyeon the DANCING QUEEN OF KPOP, that idols look up to. These girls were the biggest kpop girl group, so big that even tho there last song was in about 2017, they still on top ten kpop groups and in top ten of most won awards.

[@jhanie2441]

Into the New World is and will always be the best debut song for me. It is also commonly sung in feminist movement in Korea 😭💕

[@llamaamerica985]

Yes I really feel in love with them, because the 9 members can sing, dance, rap, act, their visual, they have EVERYTHING! 🥺💕

[@mirariferrer111]

Do you heard the news about the SmTown concert sir austin? Whaaa! Exo baekhyun, snsd tayeon, and red velvet are on the line up!!! And it will be for free!

[@octavianiolivia8305]

We need more of these oldies songs reaction

[@manyejoi]

These two were released 2007 and reupload by sm on 2011. The quality was so bad but still gold af.

[@Hy-BridAbroad]

I think people forget how long ago 2007 was when it comes to technology. KZbin was still very new. The first iPhone had just been released a couple months before ITNW. Facebook had just become open for everyone to register the year prior and hit 20 million users in 2007. The Motorola Razr was the best selling cell phone. Twitter was a baby. It was a different time

[@chuuu4610]

The shirt thing WAS smart. Red Velvet had something like that in Happiness too; the colour coded hair. That was some big brain action from SM. I hope that after your chronological marathon of their songs you get to their solos. I recommend three solos to watch with a similar vibe: Seohyun - Don’t Say No, Taeyeon - I Got Love, Yuri - Into You

[@iaags4947]

You're doing good at recognising their name. Mixing up with jessica and taeyeon but that's okay since they look a twin. They focusing more on vocal in their earlier years.

[@insc080507]

10:49 You trying hard to put names to their faces Me: *patiently waits for u to realize their names are on their sweaters* 11:26 *welp there it is* the names on sweaters is also a smart mkt startegy not only to get to know the members, but also as merch, ppl always want to own their bias' shirt hehe

[@divaaja2487]

Seohyun is truly piano player

[@tanianeira9532]

The ones singing the hardest parts are always jessica and taeyeon, thats enough to know who they are lol

[@BombshellBre95]

One the person's voice who you kept saying voice was strong and the one you liked was Yuri. That's what I loved most about SNSD from back in the day. The vocals were amazing. Sometimes with these companies, to appeal to a certain audience, they make the girls change up the tones of their voice. Even though the vocals are still there, now they have a more light, cutesy way of singing.

[@Sone_carat90]

Girls’ Generation is a remake of a popular 1989 hit, and 1989 is the year when 6 members of the group were born in.

[@TheHarbat]

The most iconic debut song ever. It was like every kpop idol need to perfrm it hahaha Literally, snsd brought out lot of girlgroups coz after their success alot of them debuted, as what yoona said, SNSD is the coming or era of girls. 💕

[@sundawg911]

Wonder Girls had an amazing debut. I loved Irony and then they came out with Tell Me!! Unfortunately the group wen through changes. WG will always have a special place cause in my heart. You should react to them if you get a chance.

[@purplerabbit39]

And that's how you debut ladies and gentlemen. ITNW actually was meant for their senior group around early 2000 with faster tempo (you can see it with original tempo on ITNW remix version) and Girls' Generation was a remake of song from 1989 that's why both of the songs sounds like a throwback i guess 🤔 also maybe because you see the mv, that's why you think it's vocal heavy song, but the choreo itself quite hard (based on other people, i have no knowledge in dancing). Not to mention they are big number girl group, beside the choreo there's also the change in formations too, taeyeon herself has to run around from the center to the back after belting just to go to the center again and hit another belt and then run backwards to the side (you can check video of snsd's performance fun fact, it's quite fun). And most girl groups on the 3rd gen have this one essential step, they learned ITNW before their debut that's why a lot of groups covering this song, since they've learned it anyway 😂

[@magaykaga1484]

Into The New World is about leaving the painful past behind and going on a journey together, into the new world. It is iconic. It’s been used a lot in protests in South Korea.

[@soshiarif6485]

Into The New World is iconic debut song of all time, this song have big impact in South Korea, and for the song "Girls Generation" is actually the original song from soloist Lee Seung Chul in 1989. Into The New World in Tokyo Dome is so emotional, and Into The New World in "Girls & Peace" in Seoul the harmonization is crazy, with full choreography, power voice, harmonization is PERFECT! SNSD live performance never disappointed

[@michaelp5694]

Having been an SNSD fan since 2009, these two songs will always make me tear up for some reason. Just seeing how much they’ve grown and how far they’ve come makes me so emotional! 😭

[@samiachowdhury1986]

Me too! Every single time without fail!

[@soshigasmic]

I’m already subscribed~ For ITNW the lyrics really fits with the music video. And this song has been used in many rally/protests in South Korea, university protests. It was also used in a protest in Thailand. The lyrics really speaks to these people and that shot up the song’s popularity even more. The ballad truly is an emotional masterpiece. 💜 Other than that, a lot of these survival shows use it to test the trainees with their vocals (with some dancing). If you see their live for this, the dance is pretty difficult compared to other dances during their time. And a lot of newer girl groups members mentioned that ITNW was a song everyone had to learn to sing and dance while being a trainee. lol. It won’t hurt to react to the Into The New World concert version with Jessica. In my opinion their team has the best vocals during their time (between idol girl groups that debuted around their time). Girls’ Generation originally was release in the late 80s by a male singer. 😂 The only legit instrument player is Seohyun, you got clowned akdjsksks! Their songs are so old school because this was releases 2007, that’s also why these videos are sooooo low quality and with no subs. I enjoyed watching these videos with you! And don’t feel bad about not recognizing them~ The make up and their looks really changed and matured. 😂 Great video, Sir Austin!

[@LastKnight0727]

Oh man, I get teary eyed when I hear "ITNW" mainly because the last time I heard it was the ballad version that they did. So emotional and just super powerful. for clarity, I had a friend recommend it to me, and told me the back story about the group, it was maybe my second or third song that I heard from SNSD. I wasn't invested in the group but the pure emotional weight that they put into that performance brought me to tears. I don't know why. I'm not an emotional person normally but music has a way of just bringing super strong emotions out of me.

[@barnuner]

Their live performance of Girls Generation made me a fan way back in the day. Someone posted it on some gundam fansub forum. Was the music show where the original singer came on stage, they were in doll like outfits and Taeyeon looked like she was about 12 and all the sudden them powerful vocals and adlibs with Jessica I was like what the heck these kids can belt it!?

[@suikalabsICHII]

i definitely recommend that you see both lives for these songs esp into the new world first live (the one where they're wearing green). the vocals are so good and clean even with the hard hitting choreo.

[@hope9051]

It is a must learn song for every girl group from different companies during their trainee days because of vocals and hard choreography combination. Snsd performed this song 100% live without backtrack while dancing and Taeyeon and Jessica's doing their adlibs and high notes in the end of the song without even stopping on their dance moves are legendary.

[@YoLo-mf3yv]

You just watched the National Anthem of Kpop. Now time to watch the Acapella and then the Ballad version of Into The New World.

I can know who they are just listening to their voice 😊

[@DianaTrsc]

Austin just to understand the popularity of SNSD during the 2nd generation was when the boy groups like TVXQ, Super Junior and Big Bang were dominating the industry. It was just with SNSD and since why the girl groups were so much hated by boy groups fangirls, started to be in the same level to compete in charts and music shows with these big names. And just to finish the 3 groups who started this era were Wonder Girls, SNSD and Kara; later on there were others like T-ara, F(x) and 2ne1.

[@王冠-e2y]

so happy you're getting into know snsd ❤ and also second generation kpop and subtitles its a non existent relationship. back in 2012 when I was first seeing kpop I would see entertainment shows (like weekly idol) for 40 minutes straight without understanding a single word. I'm really glad that nowadays there's subtitles in almost everything and people are actually understanding what the idols are talking about... but I did learn some korean out of this, so wasn't all bad

[@titleAzure]

Jessica + Taeyeon = Legendary Duet

[@Riku-Leela]

Into the new world is easily the most iconic kpop debut track, all girl groups cover it nowadays, its almost a rite of passage for becoming a girl group. It's also iconic in what it has done to help with freedom marches for many social aspects in South Korea. Its been used in various freedom of speech movements, protests for the impeachment of one of the previous presidents, woman march and equal woman university rights, Korea's #MeToo campaign and so many more nowadays and not just in Korea but around Asia too. There's so much more just their debut track has done for both kpop and Korea/Asia as a whole. Iconic is just one of the words for it 😊

[@NN-rl7uf]

not only vocal were strong, the choreography, the energy and the song itself have a strong lyrics, everything about their debut is strong the reason why it legendary - till now Into the New World is till cover by many girl group and consider as textbook for girl group nowaday

[@yujiminmylove]

and ITNW is such a popular song, even until now, almost all of the new girls groups or trainees cover this choreo or the song itself

[@thea.25]

Who would have thought that these young girls will be the most respected kpop Girl Group in the industry. Paving way for girl groups in a bunch of boy groups at that time. 💗

[@ushijimawakatoshi1429]

The song that became like second next to there national anthem. That's how much their debut song so memorable and meaningful. And the last scene of ITNW, I always tear up everytime I remember Sooyoung saying something like she's running for her dream as a rookie. And look where she is, a member of one of the most influential girl group.

[@onceyouwheeinyoucantwheeout]

Definitely check out the lyrics for into the new world! It’s more of a meaningful song and has been used during protests (i believe)

[@yoonhyun6932]

INTO THE NEW WORLD is will be always and forever the best song in KPOP world. "ITNW" is not like the other KPOP songs. That song is so meaningful and important especially if you are Korean because it was used in many protests. Not only in Korea but in other part of the world. So I'm proud of it. And also the song is connected to them. Connected to GIRLS' GENERATION. That means girls will take over the world so INTO THE NEW WORLD AND GIRLS' GENERATION. GIRLS' GENERATION is a trademark song of GIRLS' GENERATION.

OMG the intro of Into The New World... 😮😮😮 Gets me every time. AND THE CHORUS TOO! That freaking song. I mean it's not even that I like it, it's like watching the Queen of England and you just have respect for the damn woman, I've heard it so many times in so many different occasions (even variety shows to introduce big personalities) that it's just THE song.

i remembered when i started snsd back in 2008. it took me 5 days to distinguish the triplets: seohyun, yoona and yuri.

Into the new world is ICONIC, SNSD is one of those groups that debuted with such a meaningful song if not the only. It's so iconic and meaningful that 13 years after its release, the song is still played and used by a lot of people for protests and movements, not only in korea. The song was played in Womens' March in New York, LGBTQ+ protests, Abortion protests and many more in South Korea. Tiffany said that for her it will always be the most iconic and her favorite snsd song, and we could all agree. STAN QUEENS! ❤

Fun fact: They were told that they won't debut if they can't sing and dance it perfectly at the same time for ITNW and so they did practice a lot. It's really different with the generation today, most of new groups can sing, yes, but not as stable when you combined it with dancing. They will improve in time.
