She then named her current closest member, saying:

Upon choosing Sooyoung, Yuri drew laughter from viewers as she immediately showed fear of getting backlash for naming the members in order and jokingly said:
"I'm a little cautious, but things like the order in which I say it (SNSD members), I don't want to be concerned about things like that."
Yuri continued to mention the remaining members, saying:
"I'm close with Tiffany, I'm close with Hyoyeon and I'm also close with YoonA. Who's next? There's Sunny, Taeyeon and Seohyun, too."

Yuri Attests SNSD's Unrelenting Relationship
While on the topic, Lee Sora then praised Yuri and the Girls' Generation for maintaining their harmonious relationship with each other without a fight.
Yuri then agreed and felt grateful for meeting the members of Girls' Generation, even wondering about the possibility they didn't debut together.
"If I say it like this, it could sound like I'm bending the arm too inward, but all of my co-members were just so kind. They are so kind. We have known each other since we were young, so we just don't have any bad intentions.
We really just want the best for each other and we know how to make each other shine brighter. We are real friends.
If we met in society as adults, I wonder if we could have been this genuine. I don't think so."
Yuri added:
"That's why (SNSD) is really special. Especially in my 30s, having them in my life became more precious and special. There is a sense of camaraderie that says, 'We did well.'
Of course, it's the same for other jobs, it seems like it's a tough world here, but we all do well in our respective positions.
It's nice to have friends with whom you can endure things together and have a positive influence on each other."
