Will there be another Round 2 confrontation between So Nyeo Shi Dae and Wonder Girls after dominating the competition in the latter part of last year?
It is however unlikely to happen in the near future. Wonder Girls and So Nyeo Shi Dae had ended promotional activities for their first album in January and April 2008 respectively. Although Wonder Girls are planning to release a single by end May/early June, So Nyeo Shi Dae are instead branching out to other areas. So it’s gonna be a while before they meet up again.
So Nyeo Shi Dae had recently completed their first album promotions with impressive results. They had four No.1 hits (Into the New World, Girls Generation, Kissing You, Baby Baby) while their album sales volume exceeded 100k (pretty difficult) in five months. With such phenomenal records being set, they have decided to place emphasis on individuals now.
So Nyeo Shi Dae leader Tae Yeon is now a radio deejay with Super Junior Kangin on MBC Chin Chin Radio Show. Her straightforward and bubbly image has won the affection of many fans. YoonA has officially started her acting career. She had been in MBC “9 End 2 Outs” drama last year and will soon be the leading lady in KBS daily drama, “You Are My Destiny”. Other members like Jessica, Tiffany and Seo Hyun participated in a mixed album, Roommate and sang “Bad Oppa” and also receiving lots of attention.
Wonder Girls themselves have been busy preparing for their comeback with their new single. The composers and production staff have all been decided with Park Jin Young himself also coming back from America to produce the single personally. According to sources, the style of the new single is totally different from the national anthem, “Tell Me”. They also expressed that the impact of the new single on the music industry is definitely on par with “Tell Me”.
Wonder Girls Sun Ye and So Hee have recently given up being the MCs of Music Core to focus their attention on producing the new single. They are determined to bring to everyone something that will surpass the “Tell Me” mania of 2007.
