Sooyoung Confesses Crying Alone During SNSD's 16th Debut Anniversary

In the video teaser, Sooyoung shared an anecdote about her spending the group's 16th debut anniversary alone in August 2023.

Contrary to celebrating their 15th year together as they released a studio album, "FOREVER 1" in 2022, this year's event left Sooyoung in tears while commemorating their special day alone.

She explained:

"This year, the timing didn't work out with the members, so we couldn't get together on our 16th debut anniversary. So I blew candles on the cake alone at home and watched videos of the Girl's Generation all-song collection.

When I was watching music broadcast videos from our debut to now, old memories come to mind and I cried."

"I recently went to Uhm Jung Hwa sunbaenim's concert, and her presence on the stage was amazing. She has so many hit songs that I danced and sang along until my throat was sore.

After feeling the heat, I thought that I really wanted to hold a Girls' Generation concert as well. "

Sooyoung, who hinted at SNSD's full group return showed an even greater will to do the anniversary concert after the show's MCs also emphasized SNSD's multiple hits and showed their willingness to attend the event if it will come true.

Even singer Lee Chan Won was delighted, declaring that:

"No group in middle school could go beyond Girls' Generation. Everyone became one as they played Girls' Generation's stage on the classroom monitor and sang along together."
