Hyoyeon Sheds Tears On ‘Girls’ Generation and the Dangerous Boys’
Hyoyeon’s tears poured out during a recent recording for “Girls’ Generation and the Dangerous Boys”.
On December 30th, a jTBC representative revealed that Hyoyeon participated in an art therapy program for the problem youths in “Girls’ Generation and the Dangerous Boys”.

The representative commented, “Girls’ Generation and the dangerous boys earnestly participated in the art therapy session.  Hyoyeon in particular shocked the other members and the crew when she suddenly burst into tears while she was drawing.”

“Hyoyeon left the recording for a moment to clear her mind and soon returned to continue recording.  However, when the art therapy expert was analyzing Hyoyeon’s drawing she burst into tears once again, causing the people surrounding her to be disconcerted.”

The reason behind Hyoyeon’s tears will be revealed on the next episode of “Girls’ Generation and the Dangerous Boys”, which airs next year, January 1st.

An Additional US$12,000 Donated to Peace Boat for Japan Relief Fund Project
 
In March of this year, a three-week donation drive held by Soshified raised US$33,500 for victims of the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami.  With the announcement that Soshified would accept donations for the relief effort, members from all over the world began to fill the charity thread with 21 pages worth of contributions.  In addition, several members put up signed items for auction with the proceeds also going towards the fund raising effort.  All of the donations collected by Soshified were given to Peace Boat, an international non-profit organization based in Japan currently working to provide disaster relief to areas affected by the earthquake and tsunami.  A complete summary of Soshified’s donation drive and a letter of thanks from Peace Boat can be found here.

On top of the US$33,500 donated by Soshified members, Peace Boat also received an additional US$12,000 from the “Google Gift Matching Program” thanks to the efforts of a Soshified Project Leader.  The “Google Gift Matching Program” matched US$12,000 of donations, resulting in a grand total of $45,500 being donated to Peace Boat through Soshified’s fundraising.  In the letter pictured above, a Peace Boat representative confirmed that two $6,000 checks were received by Peace Boat in mid-November of this year.

Girls’ Generation Performs on SBS Gayo Daejun
On December 29th, Girls’ Generation performed at SBS Gayo Daejun, with Yoona serving as MC alongside Lee Seunggi and Song Jihyo.  They started off the whole show with “Technologic”, in which Taeyeon, Jessica, Sunny and Tiffany made their appearance via a diamond-shaped box in the center of the stage.  They then danced to “Technologic” on center stage with sexy choreography to boot.  After that, Girls’ Generation and Super Junior danced together to the song, “Moves Like a Jagger” for the opening stage.  A few stages after the opening, K.Will and Tiffany performed a duet song, “A Whole New World”.  Artists from SM Entertainment then performed together on stage like an orchestra with the song “The Sound of Hallyu”, with Seohyun playing the piano and Tiffany playing the flute.
 
Tiffany played “Swan Lake” with her flute during her solo, while Jessica, Sunny, Hyoyeon, Sooyoung and Yuri danced along to a remix of “Swan Lake”.  The next stage was Taeyeon singing “Devil’s Cry”, which was performed during the 2nd Asia Tour, but this stage was different as Changmin from TVXQ joined in to sing it with Taeyeon.  Then, it was Girls’ Generation’s turn to take the stage for the second part of “Hallyu Queens”.  Girls’ Generation performed a remix of “The Boys”, with a different set of choreography for this remix which gave it a unique flavor.  Yoona made a brief appearance during Lee Seunggi’s stage by conversing with Lee Seunggi on stage. In response to the performances on SBS Gayo Daejun, “The Sound of Hallyu” ranked first on the trending topics worldwide on Twitter while “Swan Lake”, “S CRY” (Editor’s note: Twitter doesn’t count the words before the apostrophe, hence it trended ‘S CRY’ instead of ‘Devil’s CRY’), “SM Family” and “Bring The Boys Out” also managed to get onto the list of worldwide trends.
