Girls' Generation's Seohyun opened up about her feelings regarding her next musical challenge, 'Mamma Mia,' during its press conference on January 12 at the Millenium Hilton Hotel.

"'Mamma Mia' was always a production that I liked," she started off.  In it, she plays Sophie, who is looking for her birth father.  "I think it'd be a lie to say that I feel no burden.  My responsibility has grown that much. It is simply an honor that I get to be in such a cool production like 'Mamma Mia' with such amazing and cool super veterans.  I am of the thought to make a Sophie that is unique to Seohyun with a new energy."

She continued, "It was my first time at a formal musical audition.  I was nervous, but I had a lot of fun preparing for the audition.  I got to sing the songs from 'Mamma Mia,' which I always liked, and I grew passionate as I practiced.  More than anything, I want to do my utmost with diligence."

She went into more detail of her audition, stating, "On the day I went to audition, I made the diary of the mother.  Thinking, 'What would the mother's diary look like?' I created the content of the diary accordingly.  I got to know Sophie as I made it, and it was fun.  Seeing as how I had fun preparing, I was also able to have fun auditioning.  I think it really became a good experience."
