To be honest never but I still like the group very much but I don't like the タイトル SONE because of the "extra" that comes with it.
I like SNSD not because they are the best at anything but they are もっと見る interesting to be honest. I am in between an ANTI and full blown Sone when it comes to being a ファン of them. I don't buy alot of hype about the group as far as being the best but they are at least talented and since I see them around so much they have grown on me.
I got into the group によって accident and one member looked better then everyone in a particular video, the rest is history. I was around in South Korea when they debuted but their appeal wasn't for me I only got into them last October.
The reason I can't say I am a Sone is for many reasons
1.I can't always justify everything they do as artist. For example SNSD is just a product of SM that is pretty and talented but they are もっと見る seen for their body parts then their talent in South Korea.
2. Lots of Sone over hype nonsense like SNSD are the best at everything または they are better then A-pop artist, which is so far from the truth
3. I have a hard some liking someone who doesn't have any control over their life, and SNSD are just products of a company, and they get no say so over their image または musical career.
But don't misunderstand, I will defend this group to the death is someone says things that aren't true about them and I like the group, but not to the point of calling myself a Sone, I am just someone who likes the group.
4 years it all started from 2009 my uncle had a videoke, sometimes あなた can play an MTV of any 人気 songs on the song book i found a song that i've never heard before its written on the song book its called "Genie によって Girls Generation i never know what's girls generation but i still played it on videoke then there they are i saw all the members when i saw yoona i 発言しました that she i so cute in the MTV when i saw yuri she really had a bright smile when i saw seohyun haha she had chubby cheeks so i decided that she is my お気に入り member and when i saw taeyeon she's kinda precious here but when i saw jessica i hated her but when my cousins saw sooyoung they 発言しました that she is ugly because they 発言しました that she look like a lesbian and that's where it started
October 2010 I think ^^ my 1st SNSD pic saved on October 1st 2010 ^^ my best フレンズ always talking about SNSD and SJ, but I don't even know them. I 検索 them (Jessica actually) on Google and I like them ^^ I searched Jessica because my フレンズ didn't like her and I want to know why is my フレンズ didn't like them. later I 愛 Sunny and SunSica be my fave pairing~ xD
