The inspiration to the number So Nyeo Shi Dae SooYoung had on her jersey for comeback ‘Oh!’ has been revealed.

So Nyeo Shi Dae members TaeYeon, Sunny, SeoHyun, Yuri, HyoYeon, SooYoung and Tiffany did an independent interview for KBS Entertainment Relay aired on 30th January.
So Nyeo Shi Dae described their comeback song as “You can see the confidence in the lyrics ‘Don’t think of my as a little girl. You will regret after a year’. And with the phrases like ‘I love you oppa’, you can see our energetic features.”


They also revealed an episode while filming the MV, “It was like on fire when we were filming the MV. Because of all the saying that this will be a big hit, everyone applauded.”
And for their comeback stages, the girls were seen in cheerleaders costumes. And on their jersey are all different numbers. Tiffany said, “I had number 0 but I thought double digits are prettier. Then Jessica told me ‘You’re the punctuation of the group’.”

The members also talked about SooYoung’s number 24, “24 because she said she wanted to get married at 24.” Flustered, SooYoung said, “This is just a wish. If I were to get married, I would not be able to be part of So Nyeo Shi Dae, so it should be the reverse 42 years old.”

So Nyeo Shi Dae encounters with a broadcast accident during their comeback stage.
The group had their first comeback stage on MBC Music Core on 30th January, they performed 2 songs – ‘Oh!’ and ‘Show!Show!Show!’ on the show that day.

For their ‘Show!Show!Show!’ stage, the girls did a performance similar to a musical and showed off their sexy charms. And they moved with the bubbly cheerleader concept for their ‘Oh!’ performance.
But near the end to their ‘Oh!’ performance, the screen went blank for about 5 seconds.

TV viewers commented, “So Nyeo Shi Dae was on and then suddently the screen went blank, and I had a shock. Even the TV is in shock with the girls’ comeback”, “They even get a broadcast accident… prelude to a big hit?”etc.

In the afternoon of the 27th (KST), the music video for idol group SNSD's second album title song had 100 000 views when it was released, and it went up to the number 1 spot on GomTV music video charts.

The song "Oh!" has already been released on the 25th, and rose to number 1 on major music sites and it is speculated that the album will also rise to the number 1 spot as well. However, it wasn't just the song, but the performance and visuals with the song and SNSD's known previous various fashion looks that fans were so much more expectant of this music video.

As to prove this expectancy, SNSD's "Oh!" music video, which was first released at noon on the 27th through their official website and GomTV, rose to the number 1 on the real-time GomTV music video popularity rankings as soon as it was released. It was recorded to have gained 100 000 hits in just 2 hours. This record was achieved more than twice as fast as the greatest hit of 2009, "Gee."

The head of the Contents Strategy team of GomTV said, "SNSD's "Oh!" teaser video released on the 25th rose to the number 1 spot in the popularity rankings, and for at least two days, there have been 220 000 hits." He also added, "The music video for the song "Gee" by SNSD, when it was released last year through GomTV, it accumulated ten million views and set a record. Observing the trends, "Oh!" looks like it will pass the "Gee" records easily."

SNSD's "Oh!" music video has gained a lot of popularity, and so has their most recent music video before this, "Chocoloate Love" which is top 20 in the GomTV rankings. The number of viewer hits for SNSD's major music video is quickly rising.

The music video of SNSD's second album title track 'Oh!' has been revealed.

SNSD's newest music video that was released on the 27th presented two different concepts, one of which includes the complete transformation into cute cheerleaders. In a blue locker room, SNSD members were dressed in pink, white and pastel-tone apparels which depicted a barbie-like image, while in a football stadium, the girls were dressed up in blue and white cheerleader uniforms.

However, SNSD members were faced with an unexpected surprise near the end of the music video. Facing the nine cheerleaders from across the room were another set of nine SNSD members with identical facial appearances but dressed up in black leather outfits, who were named as the "Bad" So Nyuh's (Girls). These nine SNSD members dressed in leather outfits were full of secrecy and charisma.

In regards to the music video, SM Entertainment representative commented, "the ending is intended to show a glimpse of the follow-up track and to raise curiosity amongst the fans about the complete transformation of SNSD."

The music video of 'Oh!' was filmed in Kyungkido, Ilsan and Paju and was directed by film director Cheo Soohyun, who helped display another charmful side of the girls by transforming them into cheerleaders.

In particular, the music video displaying the members as supportive cheerleaders in a football field added more freshness to the energetic, electro-pop track 'Oh!'.

SNSD's second full album will be released on the 28th through online and offline markets, and the group's comeback performance will be held on MBC 'Show! Music Core' in the 30th.
