130213 SNSD Tiffany thinks Girls’ Generation are still “girls” even with their increasing age

On the final episode of SBS‘ ‘Strong Heart‘, Girls’ Generation‘s Tiffany started her story with the caption ‘We want to be Girls’ Generation‘ and explained how her members are still “girls” even with their increasing age.

Tiffany shared, “I think the moment has come when we now have to keep our dignity as girls. We are ‘Girls’ Generation’, but people keep telling us to stop using the word ‘girl’. Our average age is 24.5 years old [Korean age] and six members are of the same age.”

She continued, “When Girls’ Generation first started promotions, we couldn’t meet other girl groups. But as a music show MC, I had the opportunity to view a lot of them. As an MC, when we watch the other artists’ stages, we could see the fans’ reactions. When they see us, they watch quietly as if they’re giving us special treatment. When other girls groups come out, they start cheering and go wild. But we think we are still cute and youthful. But they tend to look at us as adults.”
