From "Girls' Generation" interview (June 2011)
「少女時代」インタビューから（2011年6月）

When "Girls' Generation" released an original album in Japan, she appeared on TBS's "King's Brunch" and answered an interview with reporter Marina.

"I'm sure there are many people who have seen this content on TV."
It feels like they've appeared in publicity for the album, but even in a short exchange, their presence and cuteness (or rather, beauty) are overwhelming.
(A picture is worth a thousand words) But records are also important.
"Let's write down the content of the interview as it is."

☆☆☆
The 9 members sat in two rows, front and back, and smiled and greeted each other to the music of (Gee). beautiful and cute girls. Now is the beauty of the season.

A narration will be added, and the current hit music (MR/TAXI) will be played.
“The girl group (Girls’ Generation) that is creating a sensation not only in Korea but also in other Asian countries”
Next, a big hit song (Gee) is played.
"Next week, Japan's first original album will be released. ――Branch's first appearance, right now, the nine people who are riding!"

"Today's guest is Girls' Generation~"
The interview begins with Marina's introduction.
"Hello. I'm Girls' Generation."
"Annyeonghaseyo (Hello)"
"Annyeonghaseyo (Hello)"
"My name is Marina. Nice to meet you."
"yes"
Girls' Generation responds with a smile.

Girls' Generation's self-introduction begins from the front row.
(I want you to think of each person's voice and expression)

"Hello everyone in Japan. I'm Tiffany (on the left side of the front row)."
"Hello, I'm Jessica (second from the left in the front row)"
"Hello, I'm Sunny (third from the left in the front row)"
"Hello, I'm Taeyeon (fourth from the left in the front row)"

Then the back row.

"Hello, I'm Yuri (right in the back row)"
"Hello, I'm Hyoyeon (second from the right in the back row)"
"Hello, this is Yuna (third from the right)"
"Hello, I'm Sooyoung (fourth from the right)."
"Hello, I'm Seohyun, the youngest member of Girls' Generation (fifth from the right)."

Marina ――Everyone speaks Japanese, right?

"Tiffany
"Just a bit···"
"Are you good at it?" smile. She seemed embarrassed by the fact that she herself seems to be aware of this on variety shows, but I see, she has a smile that makes the screen brighter.
In that program, she said, ``I do it this way.
"Which one can you talk to the most?"
"Everyone answers."
"I'm Sooyoung"
"Are you sure you can speak?"
Sooyoung replied modestly.
"For the time being, just daily conversation"
"Are you studying?"
“Yes, everyone is studying hard right now.”
"Umm... from what I've heard, Tiffany and Jessica can speak English, right?"
"yes"
The two nodded.
"Yes"
"To Marina's greeting,
"Yes"
"Yes"
Tiffany and Jessica respond.
"Can you speak English?"
and Tiffany.
"I can speak" Marina.
"Well, I feel a little better."
"Shall we speak in English for a moment?"
Tiffany pointed behind her.
"Everyone can speak English, too."
"really?"
"yes"

★This is where I was surprised. The information he got from Wikipedia and elsewhere seems to be out of date. He could speak English because he thought Tiffany, Jessica, Seohyun, Sunny, and even Taeyeon were barely there. Now that everyone is able to speak... Their growth process seems to be at a rapid pace, even outside of music.

"That's good~" Marina.
"You speak so fluently."
and Tiffany.
"Thank you. But today in Japanese."
"yes"
“This time, Girls’ Generation, congratulations on the release of your 1st original album on June 1st.”
"Yeah"
They clap their hands to express their joy.

Tiffany began to guide the album release.
"There are songs that have been released so far, such as 'Gee', 'GENIE' and 'MR・TAXI', but this time there are many new songs. I'm also trying out a new style, so I hope everyone will listen to it soon."
"Is that coming?"
"yes"
Jessica held out a paper bag.
"I'm in this box with you."
Tiffany pointed to the box she was holding.
"Cute, isn't it?" said Tiffany.

Narration.
“Speaking of cuteness, dancing in the music video is also impressive.

"Is this from (MR/TAXI)...?" Marina asked as she dressed as a driver.
"Oh"
The members nod.
"Give me some tips"
Sunny began to speak with gestures.
"Let your hands hold the steering wheel"
Seeing Sunny, Taeyeon beside her smiles funny.
"Please give your body a bounce."
"Oh, bounce...!"
"That's the key point."
“And then,” said Sooyoung, waving her hand. "There are movements like this, but this is the hypnosis of girls' generation."
"Marina looked funny."
"Girls' Generation hypnosis? What is that...!?"
"Girls' Generation Hypnosis"
Seohyun, Sooyoung, and Yuna turned their hands towards the screen.

"What would you like to eat in Japan?"
"Yuri."
“I want to eat takoyaki in Dotonbori, Osaka!”
This story was also introduced during the live performance, and it seems that it was a big hit with the Osaka fans.
"Have you ever eaten takoyaki?"
"Of course. I've eaten it in Korea too."
“Where have you been so far and what is your most memorable experience?”
"Tokyo Disney Sea" Hyoyeon.
“I have been to Hokkaido” Sooyoung.
"Private?"
"Yes. The ramen was really good. And Osaka."
"I, Osaka" Jessica.
Sooyoung continued her explanation.
“There was a beautiful river in front of Osaka-jo Hall, so I would like to ride a boat there. I want to ride with everyone.”
"I want to go" "I want to go" everyone.
"Let's go" Sooyoung.

"Gee" music plays.
Seohyun begins greeting the viewers.
"Everyone, Girls' Generation's first album will finally be released. We will do our best from now on, so please continue to support us."

“It was Girls’ Generation!”
"They smiled and waved."
