Right now it's Girls' Generation!

On August 5, the eight members of Girls' Generation attended a press conference for the release of their 7th full album, 'FOREVER 1'. 

On this day, Girls' Generation dished on their first comeback as a group in 5 years, the team's future direction, as well as the concept of KWANGYA. 

First, regarding the future of Girls' Generation, leader Taeyeon revealed, "Right now, there's little time to consider the past or the future. The present is so important to us that we have not had the chance to get to the future yet. But we hope that everyone enjoys this comeback. And building off of what we learn and experience through this comeback, we will continue to decide on the future of Girls' Generation."

Taeyeon also explained Girls' Generation's concept in the world of KWANGYA. She said, "All SM artists have their own story. Girls' Generation's concept is 'The Goddesses of Sound'. But since there are some of us who are in different agencies, not everyone might know. The story is still in the development process, and so we also need more time to grasp it." 

What was it like for Girls' Generation to record together for the first time since 'Holiday Night'? YoonA shared, "There is a song called 'Lucky Like That'. It was the first song that we recorded, and I was the last member to record. In the recording booth, I listened to the recordings by the other members. When I first heard everyone's voices for the first time in a while, I choked up. I wanted to let our fans listen to it too as soon as possible."

Girls' Generation's 7th full album 'FOREVER 1' will be available via streaming platforms on August 5 at 6 PM KST!
