Welcome to Tumblr, Sooyoung!
The Girls' Generation celebrated her 27th birthday (26 internationally) by opening a brand new blog on Tumblr. In her first few posts, Sooyoung revealed a birthday-themed photoshoot that depicted the singer playing with ballons and blowing out candles.
Sooyoung is the first member of Girls' Generation to open up any sort of personal blog.
Within a few hours of the opening of Sooyoung's SooTuff tumblr account, fans had reblogged her birthday photos more than 6,000 times each.
The lightherated photoshoot and birthday song highlighted Sooyoung's carefree personality that made her popular among many Girls' Generation fans. Each picture had a funny caption, with the picture of her cake causing Sooyoung to question her age due to the lack of candles and also comment on her sunscreen routine, along with several other witty lines..
"Why are my legs so dark?" she asked in Korean before switching into English. "I forgot to put sunblock on my legs."
Later in the day, Sooyoung also added an audio clip of her fellow Girl's Generation member Tiffany singing a comical version of "Happy Birthday" in English, monkeys and all.
Sooyoung celebrated her 27th birthday on Feb. 10. in South Korea.
