SNSD sit down for an interview on “Ousama no Brunch”!

The girls from SNSD recently appeared on the show “Ousama no Brunch” to talk about their new album with reporter Marina.

The girls spoke some English and talked about the Mr. Taxi dance, the foods they want to try, and their favorite places in Japan so far.

Check out the translation and video below!

Marina: Everyone speaks Japanese, don’t you?

Girls: Just a little bit…

Marina: Who’s the one that can speak the most?

Girls: It’s Sooyoung, she’s the best.

Marina: You can pretty much speak, then?

Sooyoung: Well, just everyday conversation.

Marina: Are you studying right now?

Sooyoung: Yes, everyone is doing their best to study hard.

Marina: It shows up in your songs as well, but Tiffany and Jessica can speak English, right?

Girls: Yes.

Marina: Hi~

Tiffany: Hi! Can you speak English?

Marina: Yes, I can!

Tiffany: Really? We-we feel much more comfortable.

Marina: Really? We should talk in English more!

Tiffany: The girls are good too!

Marina: Oh really? Oh my God, hi girls!

Girls: Hi~

Marina: Wow, this is nice!

Tiffany & Jessica: You speak fluently!

Marina: Thank you! But today we’d better speak in Japanese. This time, SNSD are releasing their first Japanese album on June 1st, congratulations!

Tiffany: The songs we’ve announced before, Gee, Genie, and Mr. Taxi are included, but there’s a lot of new songs this time as well. We’re challenging a new style as well, so we want everyone to hear it as soon as possible.

Marina: Is that – you brought it with you?

Sooyoung: This comes inside the box.
Tiffany: It’s cute, right?

Marina: Mr. Taxi’s… like this? Teach me!

Sunny: You put your hands like you’re holding handles and bounce your body. That’s the key point.
Sooyoung: There’s also a part with this kind of motion. This is… SNSD’s hypnotism.

Marina: Hypnotism?! What is that?

Sooyoung: SNSD hypnotism~

Marina: What kind of Japanese foods do the girls want to try?

Yuri: I want to eat takoyaki at Dotonbori in Osaka!

Marina: Have you eaten takoyaki before?

Yuri: Of course, I’ve eaten it in Korea as well.

Marina: Are there any memorable places that you’ve been to up until now?

Hyoyeon: Tokyo Disney Sea.
Sooyoung: We went to Hokkaidou.

Marina:In your free time?

Sooyoung: Yes. The ramen was really delicious. And, when we went to Osaka…
Jessica: It’s Osaka for me too!
Sooyoung: There was a really beautiful river flowing in front of Osaka Castle Hall, so I want to try riding a boat there with the members.
Girls: I wanna go!
Sooyoung: Let’s go!

Seohyun: Everyone, finally SNSD’s first album will be released! From now on, we’ll work harder and harder, so please cheer us on!
Sooyoung: Please come see us on our tour too!

    Wow, Sooyoung is so good at Japanese! I liked it when Marina spoke in English with Jessica and Tiffany, she is really good!

    Tiffany & Sooyoung look so pretty.

    I wish Taeyeon spoke, though… she must not be very confident with her Japanese. :(

  • cloudburst

    i thinks she looks same, she just had a heavy make up..

    and with their schedule do you think she can do surgery?
    they fly between japan and korean, doing performing & recording for many shows, photoshoot, preparing for their 1st japan album, japan concert, 2nd asia tour, smtown concert. do you think she had time to do that?

  • IMakeMyPoint

    Their japanese is improving bit by bit. Yuri , you must be turning into the next Shikshin, always talking about food. XD

  • Mr.P

    The 3rd Shikshin xD sooyoung is converting her unnies into shikshins, one by one…the jangshins seem easiest to convert lol

  • Anonymous

    maybe because you haven’t looked at her ‘recently’ that you forgot tiffany’s face, nothing changed, don’t worry, our girl is too beautiful to fix anything on her face, same to the other members.

  • Anonymous

    yeah lool sooyoung not only turns the other members into shikshins,  but her fans too! I became a shikshin because of her, all I think about is food these days lol~ gotta love her~

    this interview is so cute, nice to see the other members participating in the interview, ahh sunny I need your cute bangs and curly hair back! they ALWAYS ask them about food in interviews, well I think that’s what you usually ask foreigners, jessica’s hair is lovely~ 

  • Wai Lo

    wow, if you have nothing better to say, or something anything constructive, then just don’t comment. You’re just making yourself seem obnoxious.

  • Celebration

    Sunny looks really pretty here. But Tae and Yuri looked a little busted. They are all still pretty though. I really like them just wish they came out with a song I actually like.

  • ducklinq

    I fangirl whenever Jessica and Tiffany speaks English. :x

    The reporter Marina kinda looks like May’n O-O

  • SNSDism

    *clicks on video expecting Japanese and a little bit of Korean*

    *hears English*

    ….*mind blown.*

    Seriously. So many fluent English speakers on this show lol

  • calz0ne

    i know, right?

    But i’ve learned to know better than to stereotype.

    i guess years of traveling and meeting new people teaches this to a person.

    i know right. She doesn’t have the time for surgery. Do you even know how long it takes to recover from plastic surgery. She wouldn’t be able to appear on tv or in public for quite some time if she did that. 

  • khaner

    This user has so much time on her hand to always comment negative things about them
    Not even a fan of snsd but i see this user on almost all of snsd articles with nothing good to say
    Good for you girl

  • imestelle

    Some AKB girls don’t look the same as they were before like Itano Tomomi. And I think you have no problem with that. So you should have no problem with tiffany too. beside. How can she has surgery when we see her often? Plastic surgery needs at least three months for it to recover from disgusting swellings dear…
