THROWBACK THURSDAY (EP 6) - Girls' Generation (소녀시대) - Into the New World - Run Devil Run - Bad Girl

[@junkotamiya]

In South Korea, Girls' Generation's "Into the New World" has become an iconic song, becoming a solidarity anthem for protestors, oftentimes for those fighting for women's rights in Korea.

[@lincolneyar8269]

SNSD was the start of girl group domination in mainstream Kpop. Back then, it was boy group dominated but SNSD started the trend and became the standard for following girl groups. They are essentially your idols' idols.

[@BestFriendsReact]

thats awesome, someone has to pave the was lol

[@mjkim9048]

To my knowledge, after "S.E.S" & "Fin.k.l" in the 90's, the start of the return of the female idol syndrome was "Wonder Girls J.Y.P's ". After [Wonder Girls] became a big hit in Korea, they advanced to the United States, and other girl groups began competing to fill [Wonder Girls'] vacancy. The representative rivalries in the music industry in the late 2000s were [Wonder Girls] and [Girls' Generation]. The two girl groups, who debuted in the same year in 2007 and showed completely opposite styles, were always in a rivalry. However, in reality, [Girls' Generation] attended Sunye's wedding, and they promote each other's comeback, and the two groups' actual relationship is still good. In the early stages of debut, the rivalry between the two groups could not be created. This is because [Wonder Girls] created a nationwide syndrome with , overturning the music industry and rising to the top as a national girl group. [Girls' Generation] gained recognition and fandom through and

Uhmm I think it started with Wondergirls and boomed with 2NE1, SNSD is just a part of it but mostly only in korea and japan but wondergirls and 2ne1 made girl groups more known internationally

[@jarewanatsakorn]

​@@viennaz3522Haahahaaahahahahaahah

[@jarewanatsakorn]

​@@viennaz3522Because of Gee. When Gee became a trend, 2NE1 didn't debuted yet.

[@SirAustin]

Oh this is ICONIC besties! ♥️

[@SirAustin]

You probably saw the Dreamcatcher cover of Into The New World.

[@BestFriendsReact]

@SirAustin that makes sense, a lot of the iconic songs have great covers. It's cool to finally get the original the credit they deserve lol

[@SirAustin]

@@BestFriendsReact BTW I have the Bad Girl MV on my channel with better audio and 4K if you want to get the full experience 😅

[@BestFriendsReact]

Yes I'll check that out tonight, thank you!

[@JC_0903]

I'm so happy whenever I see a YT reactor promoting SNSD/GG in other YT reaction. Thanks Sir Austin. 👍

[@riffgroove]

Into The New World is arguably the most iconic Kpop song of all time.

[@JusticeGamingChannel]

Interesting choice for doing Bad Girl, that's a Japanese release, I might have gone with "I Got a Boy", or "Oh!" or "Mr. Mr." or something harder like "You Think" or "Catch Me If You Can".

[@BestFriendsReact]

We had two that were suggested a lot, so we just randomly picked a 3rd song lol. I'm sure we will check out more from them, they are a lot more diverse than I thought they were

[@jczaoldyeck]

This is a random pick for you to react to.

[@wyntermyst]

Anecdote time: I was in the audience of GG's (possibly first) Kissing You performance on MCountdown where they had Kangta as the "love interest". Where I was seated, I could see the girls adorably play-fighting with their prop lollipops as they waited for their turn to perform. Also, keep up your awesome journey into the past 👍🏻

[@BestFriendsReact]

That's an awesome story, I love when seeing an artist and something super memorable happens

[@Haegemon]

Girls Generation shaped the recipe followed by all girl group after their success. Their TV reality had lot of audience. Now is a common thing for idols with many platforms online but not back then. That said, they were in SM the big name in the industry at the time, or better said, one of the founders of the industry as it is. But they didn't went alone, the holy trinity of 2007 was Girls Generation, KARA and Wonder Girls . GG shaped the new formats and grew a big fanbase in the west, but KARA was breaking records never broken before for a Girl Group in the Asian Market beyond South Korea. Girls Generation and KARA were pretty much everywhere, they even guested several variety shows together and were at the peak for many years. Girls Generation keept the title of National Girl Group until it passed to TWICE from 2nd generation to 3rd, although GG members are iconical figures in the entertainment industry nowadays still appearing in TV shows, acting in movies or as singers, and the group is still considered active. KARA faced more difficulties and tragedy, they were most famous in Japan but they have gained more appretiation in their homeland with the passing of time.

[@max-es7iu]

SNSD was the first viral kpop girl group, they are like the spice girls of asia, “Nations girl group” in Korea.

[@BlackMoore82]

Earlier this month I saw Hyoyeon DJ while she performed four songs... 'Sober', 'Picture', 'DESSERT', and part of GG's 'Gee'. She was phenomenal.

[@hansanakolonnage2378]

Crazy to see that they are still active and together (well minus Jessica) and they remained popular and iconic for over 15 years.

[@BestFriendsReact]

i only know a few songs so far, but as soon as i started listening to kpop i heard of snsd

[@adkf6099]

[@RicardoHernandez-uj5xt]

Love this reaction, you should watch the story version of Oh! and Run Devil Run, because the twoo videos are coneccted.

[@BestFriendsReact]

[@Victor-lr2xr]

As always great vocals. Choreography is improved and a little more cheesecake added. An iconic group.

[@purplelsa]

People this song is one of the hardest songs to sing in Karaoke by yourself 🤣

[@sofiajeong6839]

I love your choice!

[@AjunebuggybugK]

"America's Sweetheart" is actually a term that has been used, but mainly for actors. I can't remember the name of the person who was the 'original', but the one most often referred to as such is Shirley Temple.

[@colby_247]

Oh! mv is like a prequel to Run Devil Run. I don't even remember Bad Girl i think because I didn't listen to their Japan singles.

[@prastagus3]

You should check out Taeyeon's solo concert intro for Run Devil Run. It will blow your mind :). Also I believe one the most recent comeback of SNSD B-side song, You Better Run, is the sequel song to Run Devil Run

[@田田-h7j]

Finally the legend GG! GG actually introduced me to Kpop in 2007! The blueprint of kpop 3rd and 4th gen, pls react to their “You Think”❤

[@khj4802]

[@Dardove]

Damn, looks like KZbin ate my big comment from when this was posted. Oh well.

[@BestFriendsReact]

oh damn, i just checked to see if anything was "held for review" but nothing was there. that sucks. KZbins comment and notification system could use some work to say the lease lol

[@Dardove]

@@BestFriendsReact Thankfully, most of what I wanted to say was covered by others. The only other thing I can remember was pointing out that you were exactly right about their nickname. It is indeed the Nation's Girl Group.

[@BestFriendsReact]

Right on, also...is the fandom named sone?

[@Dardove]

Yeah, Sone.

I hope you can do a 2NE1 Throwback Thursday episode soon :)
