Taeyeon - The sunbae that every hoobae wants

[@happyLY]

Woww thank you for loving this video💜That's a really big motivator. I've read the audio feedback, I'll learn from it. Although I knew it would drown out the original and tried to turn the original loud enough so it wouldn't be drowned out by the music. When listening on my phone it's still pretty good. But of course I will still fix that error later. And thank you very much again. I also want you to know that Taeyeon supports not only the people in the video but also many others but I can't put them all in one video. I saw and knew those people in the comments you left, thanks. Hopefully 2023 will bring me closer to SNSD. Who wants to be like me?

[@JC_0903]

Hi There @happyLY, Nice video compilation! 😁 As a slightly new fan of SNSD, I'm still glad to see a new SNSD related video content and I've been watching it multiple times. I've also recommended it to new YT reactor, but just to make sure.. Is it OK to suggest this for a YT reaction? 🥺

Taeyeon heart is so warm. Sometimes i wonder how can somepeople hate on her alot .

[@BEcauseILoveYooh]

Winter's face is seriously like, help us then Taeyeon pulls out her "do you know who I am" card. Bomi was also so cute asking her to cheer for apink

[@SnowYukiYap]

Yeah, she's using "Sunbaenim" card

[@cashewchickencommunist]

Winter's face said help, but she actually says / mouths "하지마 / hajima - meaning don't do it" and waves her hand no cause she didn't want to burden her unnies.

[@Enjoy-lq6wz]

@@cashewchickencommunist She actually said "하지말레" meaning "They told me not to do it," which makes way more sense. She wouldnt just say 하지마 to Taeyeon because thats very informal.

[@jayveepaneda2604]

Taeyeon set the highest bar of being an idol not just because of talent and visuals. But also for having the kindest heart and good attitude. Taeyeon is the real kpop idol.

[@user-tz9jh6pv2j]

As a SONE since 2007, watching all these kids call Taeyeon sunbaenim makes me feel so old.

[@BlackHoleSpain]

Even it's something completely surreal in Kpop industry and korean society itself: Brave Girls' Minyeong is 32 and SNSD Taeyeon is 33. That behaviour would be really stupid in *any* other culture in the world.

[@FC-eh7ll]

@@BlackHoleSpain I get what you mean but they don’t just look at the age, they look at the seniority as well. If I were a child model in the past, I would still be considered your senior even if I’m younger than you in terms of age

[@solidcode21]

She’s the boss. A very good and humble at that.

[@danissegomez7953]

true. If I wanna be an idol, even though SM's management suck at times, I will still pick to be a trainee and debut in SM cuz she is there❤

[@lylycheab3175]

I just recently learnt about Brave Girl’s history. A song debuted years ago has only resurfaced for success when they’re about to be disbanded. Now, I understand why Taeyeon means a lot to them because she told them she liked the song since it’s debut, giving them hope. I’m so touched, realizing that Taeyeon has even helped support them, at least emotionally, through tough times. To us it might have just been a few words, but to Brave Girls it meant the world. To have a senior whom you respect support you and look out for you, it’s heartwarming. Maybe that’s why we love and appreciate Taeyeon so much 💕

[@maximoreds]

Sadly their agency completely ruined "again " their chance to be successful

[@waahter]

@@maximoreds What happened?

[@standreamcatcherloonaandyo6132]

Taeyeon is a sunbae that knows the cruelty of the industry and she shows her concerns of every idols in the industry by being the most supportive sunbae. She knows how the industry works and what people can do to them in just a simple rumors. Even if the haters hate her for some things, we can't deny the fact that she's the most loved idol until now. Because even all the money and the success she got for how long she's in the industry she's still so kind , humble and very supportive to everyone.

[@em_pjmgroove]

i'd like to add how friendly snsd was towards bts when they first debuted. at times were music shows, variety shows and even some sunbaes looked down on the boys for having no money, snsd never treated them differently and were always so friendly and respectful. as a sone and an army, that really made my heart happy

[@SoshiKyo]

I really want to see video of this, you have the link?

[@biazacha]

Yeah SNSD was always the golden standard of sunbae conduct. As the first gg to fully blow up they had the fans of all popular bgs of the time do some really horrible things so I imagine they’re painful aware of how discouraging the difficult days can be. Glad to see other groups passing the positivity to the current rookies.

[@JC_0903]

​@@SoshiKyo I'm not an army and didn't know that BTS have encountered those disrespectful moments. I'm just glad that they are very successful now😄. Anyway, there's a lot of BTS cute moments with SNSD. Sunny even has a story of V sitting besides Taeyeon in an airplane during their rookie days and advised them to be comfortable and get friendly. The original commenter em (@user-md7tw7hc1q) might have a better source here's a sample compilations of their cute moments. kzbin.info/www/bejne/roS2dYyko52rZqc or kzbin.info/www/bejne/raPTepmGeK6XgtU

[@JC_0903]

I know this video is about a Taeyeon's sunbae-hoobae relationship, but SNSD is just that group😎. I'm a new SNSD fan and also slightly new to Kpop, but I even heard about the T-ARA incident. While some groups decided to stay away with T-ARA during one of their darkest hour, SNSD stayed friends with them. The SNSD members are also friends with their "rival groups" like Wonder Girls and KARA. Only the fans have fanwars/funwars, but the members are close to one another😅.

[@kageyamasmilkbish4458]

Probably why Taeyeon was the inspiration for their song Boy In Luv.

[@sonetv309]

I still remember on healing camp they asked her about the difficulties and why she drinks..and she said that " whenever she asked a senior about her problem and difficulties they would tell her bcz you're snsd " means you're snsd so it's okay and how to can't sleep so she udes to drink so that she can sleep ...she knows how it's feels when no one understands you that's why she's always been kind and understanding of others doesn't matter if they're junior or colleagues she's always there for them ...even though she herself has gone through a lot she still try to be a senior that can be there for others ...love her so much ❤❤❤

[@ryuustories]

Taeyeon and SNSD are truly the best seniors in this industry. There's a reason why people around them speak highly about them bcus they are really kind and respect other people as well. As a fan of Taeyeon for so long, we all know that Taeyeon is the type of person who will suffer secretly by herself. But she is getting better at expressing herself more on social media and on variety shows like nolto. So i am very happy to see a lot of people sending her nice messages and love to her.

[@danissegomez7953]

true and they are very match highly respected. Even in airports, fans know how to keep distance

[@ilovemykiddo05]

Taeyeon just want to be someone who she can't have on her most busy and hardest time in the past. That's why she did all of this, she doesn't want her juniors experience the same thing as she was. That alone speak alot about the Kim Taeyeon ❤

[@miuw_miuw]

🥺🥹💖

[@sleepy_dobe]

She is an absolute angel. She supports not only fellow SM artists, but also artists from other labels. We are so blessed to be able to hear her sing. A humble, and down-to-earth superstar of the Kpop world. I love you, Taeyeon. 💖 💖 💖

one thing i love about taeyeon is she genuinely love the kpop industry and we can see that when she is in nolto and how much she know about other artist and even key once said that no one watch music show more than taeyeon, but she also know how cruel the industry is from her experience, so the fact that she always try to make her junior feel safe by always protecting and giving them advice is just heartwarming for me

[@chaeslover12]

the fact that she even supported groups that’s not in the same company as her shows that taeyeon really love supporting her hoobaes 💗💗

[@onyxblack1167]

As a group too, they support other girl groups.

[@danissegomez7953]

Taeyeon being hated as the leader of SNSD by antis, being hated for having a relationship with Baekhyun, lost 3 of her friends Sulli, Jonghyun and Hara, her father died, her grandma died, she was in a car accident, some fans hated her, also cuz she is the leader, some unloyal Sones says it was her who kicked out Jessica.... such nonsense.... She has been through a lot, suffered depression, criticized for her body weight a few times. And many more. With all this, you can tell she is such a fragile but also a brave and strong woman despite all those, she succeeds in creating great songs, and she deserve all those recognition and love. Having the other 7 strong willed SNSD members is a blessing❤, without them, I can only imagine her sufferring so much with her depression.

[@prernarajesh4022]

This is the reason why she's till date one of the most successful gg leader and also why BoA wanted Taeyeon to be the leader of Got The Beat she had told many times that she wants the hoobae to approach her if they want but because of her being so senior sometimes they feel pressed and our Taengoo is just an introvert who don't know how to approach others 😂

[@namjamyeon]

Taeyeon is one of the most active female idol in kpop industry since her debut until this day. Her interaction with other idols are of course inevitable and her personality is giving pure positiveness to them. An idol to everyone indeed but also the inspiring one. Inspiration icon, not only to her fans but also to other idols. A lot of hardships she has been through and she also lost some of her fellow artists under the same company. I worried about her for the past few years ago, but then I look at her now and I hope shes living her best life forever ❤️

[@FebiMaster]

They say you can really see someone in true color when they have 1. Power, 2. Money, here we can see how Taeyeon's humble side is still there even with all the success and fame that she gets, it's actually remarkable that she can stay like this, she's so used to being considerate and humble without a second thought.

[@theobscenekiwi]

You can tell Taeyeon is a good person right away just by how many idols respect and admire her. She bears so much weight for changes in the indursty on her shoulders. She knows all the rock bottom sides of the idol world and you can tell by her actions that she tries to shield her hoobaes from them. I always wish for her to be healthy and happy, bc god knows she deserves a little break.

[@soshizennie]

There was also a time when Taeyeon made time to support Sulli 😢 she whined adorably when she saw and hugged her unnie, that always brings me to tears. They look like they have been supporting each other through difficult times. Must have been too painful to lose a hoobae 😭 The best sunbae Taeyeon 🥺 she’s been through a lot yet she never failed to radiate warmth around her

[@biazacha]

Lose two; Jonghyun was also extremely close to her (and Yeri and Heechul) at that time soshi were truly worried about her cause she have the tendency of suffer in silence while supporting others :(

[@Rosevieenla]

Sulli lived in the same dorm with Taeyeon and Tiffany when she was a trainee

[@ChoaYeon]

And this is why Taengoo will always be my number bias no matter how many new idols I like.

[@naoamreyes6141]

She's been in the industry for so many years. She knows the hardship, thats why I think why she's so caring to her juniors and other artists from other labels, bless her kind heart even more 💗

[@johnnytwotoes]

Taeyeon knows what it's like to be young and grow up in the spotlight with all the criticisms from outsiders to insiders picking at every little thing you do. She doesn't ever say bad things about her hoobaes. She always tries to lift them up with words of encouragement and shows support in any way she can.

[@MiseryKira]

Taeyeon is not just the most beautiful girl in the world and an amazing singer, she is also a wonderful person

[@bebela015]

I feel like she's this way because, more than anyone else, she knows how crushing this industry can be and she has spoken very openly about it. Taeyeon during her extended career has suffered a lot, I'd say a lot more than most idols have, so she knows how it's like to be young and grow up in the spotlight with everyone criticizing your every move. There's also the fact she paved the way to a lot of those idols as well (there's a reason why SNSD is called the nation's girl group), so this is her way to not only protect those artists, whether they're new or old, but also to support them. Plus, you can see how much she loves kpop itself, because she's also incredibly supportive of idols that are not under her company. Anyway she's an amazing person that deserves everything and more 💖

[@AoDk673]
