To Everyone Who Loves SNSD:
Hello, this is SNSD..
This is the first time we’re leaving a message on our website.
We should’ve done it earlier… T_T
Since we’ve debuted, we’ve been receiving lots of support from you guys for the past ten months. The reason that we’ve been so successful is you.
In retrospect, we have lots of good memories to relive, don’t we?
The debut performance that we’ve been waiting and dreaming about for so long… Our first fan meeting that we held right after the first performance… The first time we reached #1, which made us cry so much… The ‘new artist award’ that we aspired to when we were trainees… Into The New World, Kissing You and Baby Baby. ^^ Despite the busy schedules we were happy.
We thank our fans for giving us such happy memories. ^^
Our busy ten months were full of precious memories… but there were moments that we now regret… And our hearts are heavy… Those regretful moments made us more mature and learn a lot… Our inappropriate comments and actions, our failure to use more proper and respectful language and so on have hurt many people, to whom we sincerely apologize. We will try to be more considerate in our behavior.
We want to thank everyone who loved and believed in us. There are no words to describe how thankful we are for our fans who waved pink balloons wherever we went. To return your favor, we will work harder and sing with all our hearts.
We are preparing to show you a new side of SNSD!
For people who support us, we are studying hard and trying our best to better ourselves… Please look forward to it~
Be healthy and happy! ^^ <3
Hmm… I don’t know what to make of it. It kinda pisses me off that the girls have to apologize for such trivial things as correcting someone else’s English pronunciation, but then this may finally shut those antis up for good.
Also, I have a feeling we will see much less of Tiffany in the foreseeable future.
--------------------------
After seeing that, I honestly hope everyone drops it. They apologized (even though I still have no idea what they're apologizing for since, I've seen other artists doing the exact same thing on other variety shows) and said they will be more considerate in the future, I just hope this doesn't mean they'll stop being their normal cheerful self, if so, I'm going to be extremely disappointed because that's what i love most about our girls their big personalities and differences. PLEASE GIRLS, don't change for the antis, stay true for the fans. Just don't interact with other artists .. sigh i would rather see all 9 together again. Let's show them a new image, a new album, but the SAME SNSD. We will grow stronger together.
I have a feeling that SM kind of made the girls do the apology and I'm pretty sure that we're going to be seeing less of Tiffany on shows and more of Jessica. And I also have a feeling that SM is just going to halt all Oppa Nappa promotions so that the fans don't get out of line. lala so now it's more logical that Tiffany is leaving SSGB, it actually makes a lot of sense, since more of that fans nitpicked the things she was talking about on SSGB, which was lame, but I guess gave them ratings. Like our girls haven't been punished enough. I just feel sick to my stomach that they're being punished more in a way. Gah second album come faster and sell more. Prove everyone wrong. I want to see them rise up after falling so hard.
