A Heartwarming Display of Friendship

In a heartwarming display of friendship and support, Seohyun from Girls’ Generation lavished praise on Sooyoung’s debut Japanese single, deeming it a “masterpiece.” This heartfelt moment unfolded on October 14th KST during a video on Sooyoung's YouTube channel, ‘the sootory’, featuring Seohyun as a special guest.

Genuine Joy and Emotional Support

As the video progressed, Sooyoung introduced her debut track to Seohyun, who couldn’t contain her excitement, exclaiming, “It’s so good! I love it already. I’m curious when this will be released,” while playfully hitting Sooyoung’s arm. The genuine joy was palpable as Seohyun expressed how deeply moved she was, even stating, “I almost cried. I can feel how much effort you put into this.” Sooyoung, adorned with emotion, replied, “I worked hard,” highlighting the dedication behind her craft.

Evolution in Music

Seohyun continued to shower admiration upon Sooyoung’s artistry. She noted the song's exceptional quality and remarked on the evolution of their music, saying, “Our Japanese songs in Girls’ Generation always had a different feel compared to our Korean songs, and this has that vibe but also feels like a major evolution for you as a solo artist. I was really surprised.

A Touching Reunion

After years of friendship, Seohyun recognized the fresh elements in Sooyoung’s voice, adding, “I’ve known you for 15-17 years, but there are new elements in your vocals I hadn’t seen before.” The emotional significance of the moment intensified as Seohyun almost shed tears, confessing, “I could feel all the effort you put in, and I almost cried but thought ‘this isn’t the mood for that,’ so I held back.”

Support from Tiffany

To underline the emotional connection, Sooyoung revealed that Tiffany had also cried upon hearing the track, to which Seohyun said, “I’m glad I worked hard. To get such praise from our maknae.” Seohyun encouraged Sooyoung with enthusiasm, suggesting, “You’re going to do really well. You should release a Korean version too; it’s too good to only be in Japan.”

A Light-hearted Twist

In a light-hearted twist, when Sooyoung noticed her manager shedding tears, she joked, “Why are you crying?” Seohyun added humorously, “Our manager must be an F (feeling type), whereas I’m a T (thinking type), so I got emotional for a bit but controlled it.

The Emotional Exchange

The emotional exchange concluded with Seohyun calling Sooyoung’s song a “masterpiece” before they shared a warm embrace, solidifying their friendship and mutual respect in the competitive world of K-pop.

Looking Ahead

As anticipation builds for Sooyoung’s music, fans are eager to see her artistic journey blossom, making this moment a milestone in both her career and the enduring legacy of Girls' Generation.
