Girl groups SNSD, KARA, and Brown Eyed Girls have matured and transformed into more confident and defined women. These three groups have recently been preparing and making comebacks in Korea. They have shed their cute and sexy images and now have a fierce and edgy look, concepts that fit in line with the Fall Season. They have also matured visually and the focus seems to be more on their vocals. KARA made their comeback in the beginning of this month with their third album, 'STEP', showing off their enduring fame and popularity. Unlike their cute image from past songs such as "Pretty Girl" and "Honey", KARA has been displaying a more matured and sophisticated concept for this album. The Brown Eyed Girls made their first comeback in two years with "Sixth Sense" and have shed off their idol image. Instead of putting much of the focus on the hip shaking or fan choreography like they did with "Abracadabra" and "Sign", they have been showing off their more powerful and charismatic vocals. SNSD, who will be making their long awaited comeback with "The Boys" on October 4th, have been receiving attention for their new concept as well. Unlike their usual pure, soft and innocent look, the girls' new teaser photos portray images of alluring regal women. The music scale seems to have gotten higher as well. It was announced that famous producer, Teddy Riley worked with SM Entertainment on SNSD's new upcoming album. Source + image via Naver
