Summary : Girls Generation is a South Korean nine member girl band formed by SM Entertainment in 2007. The members include Yoona, Tiffany, Yuri, Hyoyeon, Sooyoung, Seohyun, Taeyeon (the leader), Jessica, and Sunny. Many of the members had already pursued an entertainment career before Girls Generation debut through acting, DJ-ing, and modeling. Their first album sold 100,000 copies in South Korea and was the first girl group to do so since 2002. The members were professionally trained primarily in singing and dancing, but some members were also trained in acting and modeling. During the Dream Concert held on June 7, 2008 in South Korea, a silent protest took place against them. This protest was conducted by three large fanclubs [E.L.F -Super Junior], [Cassiopeia - TVXQ] and [TripleS - SS501]. Girls Generation is currently one of the successful music group in South Korea.[More...][Less...]

I like girls generation coz they are prettier than other girl group and really fabulous.I love taeyeon(leader)coz she has cuttie face and heaven voice.and also jessica coz of her sexy style.I hope they will be more pouplar.But i think that other members who are pretty are more popular than the leader.But i think for a singer,taeyeon is the best.
