I think there are some people who keep sighing because the fantasy image they had about Girls” Generation has broken with a crash. Isn”t it good to share things from our everyday life?”

She continued, “Some people may not want this, but I think it”s good to share all of our everyday life to the last detail,” as a good reminder that Girls” Generation are people with dirt and dead skin cells to scrub off, too, and there”s nothing wrong with that!

140723 SNSD's Sunny says she is not the type to talk about her inner feelings and thoughts

On MBC radio program “Sunny”s FM Date,” MC Sunny opened up more to her listeners, giving further insight into her personality.

The listeners asked whether she was the type to easily say what she was sincerely feeling or her inner thoughts. She said, “Now that I think about it, I don”t think I”m the type that talk about my inner thoughts very often. I think that people should be able to understand my true feelings even if I don”t say them aloud. I also think that it is more sincere to approach somebody with your heart more than your words.”

She continued with her wisdom, “Don”t a lot of couples say this? One person says, “I love you” while the other person says, “Okay, thanks,” which causes the first person to ask, “Why don”t you say you love me?” I think I would respond like this, “Do I really need to say that for you to know?”

Today, I will try to relay to all of you my feelings that can be known even without being told. However, I don”t think you”d be able to know if I don”t say them because it”s a radio,” ending with laughter.

What are your thoughts on this?
