SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA: Girls’ Generation’s music show promotions were first canceled as Seohyun ended up getting Covid-19. Instead of promoting with only seven members, the group decided to wait and it seems to be worth it. We now have all eight members performing together on music shows for the first time and all of them are going viral. K-pop Twitter pretty much broke when Girls’ Generation aka SNSD debuted ‘Forever 1’ on ‘Music Bank’.

And while SONEs (Girls’ Generation’s fans) were prepared for their next performance, they still couldn’t get over how effortlessly the girls performed 'Forever 1' together despite the 5-year hiatus. On August 20, their second music show performance on ‘Show! Music Core’ went viral as well. But fans’ caught a pattern as there have been no ending fairy for the music show stages yet. And it seems that it was Girls’ Generation who had requested a group ending shot.

Girls’ Generation requests for a group shot

‘Ending fairy’ is a K-pop music show trend where after the performance ends, the camera rests on one or two members before ending the stage. These members are called ending fairies as they stare at the camera charismatically or make light-hearted poses. It became a staple shot after 2016 when DIA’s Chaeyeon went viral after the camera rested on her at the end of her performance. And with Girls’ Generation going on a hiatus in 2017, they did not get a chance to take part in this trend often. Their last comeback was ‘Holiday’ in 2017.

Well, after the ‘Music Bank’ performance of 'Forever 1', Yuri came online on Bubble and shared that the group ending shot was their idea. She said, “Did you guys enjoy it? How did you find the ending fairy group shot? We were the ones who requested it. We asked them to take a group shot instead of a ending fairy SNSD is jjang! SONE-ah!”



 

‘Hits different’

Sooyoung went viral not only for returning 5 years later to K-pop but also for the hairography that she unintentionally pulled, “The way Sooyoung’s hair danced as hard as SNSD.” Another SONE posted, “Taeyeon knows what she’s doing.” One fan tweeted, “Seohyun’s feeling it mygod she looks stunning! this might be my favorite fancam of her.” Another SONE added, “NO GUYS LOOK AT THE WAY YURI AND SUNNY INSTANTLY SMILED SO BIG WHEN THEY FACED EACH OTHER I'M BROKEN.” One fan wrote, “Yoona’s little laugh and her sticking out her tongue at the end.. a double kill.”

It is their debut stage for #Forever1 but it feels like they performed it 100x already my freaking legends.” One fan said, “Music bank said no individual ending fairy cause snsd consist of 8 visuals!” Another joked, “SNSD really said if you want individual ending fairy, go catch it on our fancams.” One added, “SNSD ending fairies music bank & music core.”
