Girls' Generation appeared on ABC's talk show "LIVE! with Kelly"



Girls' Generation's Tiffany's fluent English surprises American host



On this day, Girls' Generation excited the audience by singing their latest song ``The Boys'' in English and performing a brilliant group dance. When the song ended, some members of the audience shouted in broken Korean, "Girls' Generation!" MC Kelly Ripa was surprised by the audience's enthusiastic response, saying, ``This is the first time I've seen such enthusiastic participation from the audience.'' She asked, ``There are so many beautiful women here, but what is the audition process like?'' Tiffany replied in English, ``We practiced from a young age, the youngest being 10 and 15,'' and ``We spent a lot of time together.''


Comedian Howie Mendel, an assistant MC, complimented Tiffany and said, ``Your English is very good.'' Tiffany then said, ``She was born in the United States. She studied English very hard,'' which livened up her mood. Mendel also brought up the topic of Korean, saying, ``There's a Korean word that she knows: gamja (potato).'' For a moment, the members seemed unable to understand his broken Korean, but they later understood and laughed together, saying, ``Is that what you mean by potato?''


Kelly asked, ``Before her debut, did she practice dancing or singing first?'' Jessica answered, ``She practiced everything, including dancing and singing.'' She and Jessica are also from the United States.
Kelly asked, ``Can you teach us a dance?'' and Tiffany performed the main choreography for ``The Boys,'' in which she puts her hand on top of her head and stretches her arm out. The hosts created a fun atmosphere by imitating the choreography of Girls' Generation.

What is surprising is not Tiffany's fluent English. It's this smile on their face. Just by looking at their smiles, it makes me think that this is happening because they are exchanging jokes in Korean. But that's not the case. This is how they express their feelings as they communicate in English.
The year Girls' Generation first came to Japan, Tiffany said in an interview, ``All the members can speak English,'' but even if the speakers aren't native speakers, all the listeners are now. There doesn't seem to be any inconvenience.
Although Tiffany and Jessica were the only ones communicating with the host, it was clear that they understood each and every one of them.


``Thank you for your hard work'' to Girls' Generation for their continuous appearances on big stages.
On "Late Show with David Letterman," the girls were already on standby when Letterman started speaking, and Sonny ended the introduction of the song with his body bent. I had to wait. Perhaps because she knew she was on camera, Sunny kept a smile on her face the entire time, but she must have been tired of having to wait in such a pose. Her sense of fulfillment as she stepped on the biggest stage was stronger, and it may not have been as painful for her as I thought...


Through these two stages, ``Girls' Generation'' strengthened the feeling that ``they can do it'' in America. The cheers from the fans were amazing, but the performance that responded to that support was powerful. The MCs seemed to be satisfied with the power of their live performance.


K-POP's Red Knights, Girls' Generation, which has advanced from Japan to Asia and Europe, has finally set foot on American soil, the capital of popular music.
