The interviewer asked, “When you were learning, did you do it because you wanted to cook for a special person?” trying to get a juicy answer from him.

140825 Taetiseo makes reality TV debut

Members of Taetiseo, a subunit group of Girls” Generation, wave at a press conference to promote their new reality show “The Taetiseo”.

Prior to the release of their much-awaited album, Taeyeon, Tiffany and Seohyunof Girls” Generation“s subunit Taetiseo will reveal parts of their day-to-day lives through a reality TV show.

Starting Tuesday, the three girls will appear in “The Taetiseo” on cable channel On Style, which is operated by CJ E&M.

“We wanted to make our comeback special by starring in a reality show”, said Tiffany during a press conference held last week at CJ E&M”s headquarters in Sangam-dong, northwestern Seoul. “First, audiences will get to see more about our everyday life, and then get to see our lives as entertainers toward the latter part of the show”.

There is also a chance that the group”s new album will be released through the program, according to its chief producer, Kim Ji-wook. The group has released only one album so far, “Twinkle”, in 2012, so fans are anxiously waiting to hear the band”s new songs.

The program is a quasi-sequel to the channel”s “Jessica & Krystal“, a reality show that featured siblings Jessica from Girls” Generation and Krystal of f(x), which are both affiliated with SM Entertainment. After the show was well received, more artists from the agency decided to take part in reality shows.

Taeyeon said that the members of Taetiseo have known one another for more than 10 years, so they feel like family – sisters, to be exact.

“Instead of showing anything big, the program will be all about us being natural”, said Taeyeon.

“Since there might be some people who don”t know Taetiseo because we only released an album once, we wanted to focus more on showing a humane side rather than the professional side on stage”.

For the youngest member, Seohyun, filming the show was a little liberating.

“It was fun to go to an amusement park through the reality show and embellish myself how I wanted to without hiding behind hats or masks”, she said.

“Since it isn”t easy for us to do such things freely, I”m just so happy that I got this chance to share little habits or things we do often in a friendlier way”.

However, not so much about the members” love lives will be revealed through the show.

“I don”t think I need to show every part of my private life just because [I"m on] a reality show”, said Taeyeon, who went public about her relationship with boy group Exo”s Baek-hyun in June after a local media outlet revealed they were dating.

“The goal of doing this program is to share how we prepare for a new album, along with sharing some fashion and beauty tips that fans get curious about”.

They will also share their simple and honest thoughts through the everyday conversations they have with one another.

The more active members like Tiffany and Sunny take the lead.” In response to this, Tiffany explained, “I want to drag all of the members out with me.” While the energetic Tiffany led the way for TaeTiSeo’s trip together, Taeyeon and Seohyun were quickly drained and were caught falling asleep.

I went through the audition, then I saw Girls' Generation's YoonA, and thought to myself that truly not just anyone can be a celebrity. I thought I wasn't going to make it, but I think I was lucky."

140821 Who Wore It Better: IU vs. Tiffany

IU looked stunning on the KCON red carpet wearing a mini-dress by 'Steve J & Yoni P' on August 9. This look caused a buzz amongst netizens not only because she rocked the dress but also because certified fashionista, Tiffany of Girls' Generation, previously wore the same dress at the 'Steve J & Yoni P' fashion show back in spring. Let's take a look at which K-pop darling wore the dress better!

IU opted for a simple look. She wore a statement choker with black peep-toe heels. She styled her long jet-black hair in loose curls. Tiffany, on the other hand, went in the complete opposite direction of 'simple.' She paired the dress with a long black, cardigan, layers of necklaces, black lace-up platform boots, and a matching clutch. She, too, opted for loose curls, and both girls rocked a minimal make-up with red lips combination.

If I had to choose a winner of this battle, I'd choose Tiffany by a smidge. I love her edgy boots, and I think they pair really well with the dress. Although I'm not sure how I feel about this particular cardigan, I think the black adds a nice contrast to the dress, and nicely covers up just the right amount of the neckline, which looks a little awkward on IU. However, I think her outfit would have been better had she toned down the accessorizing—there were too many things going on at once. I really liked the simplicity of IU's outfit, but to me, the top half of her outfit does not balance the bottom half—the plain shoes don't balance out the bold dress and necklace. I think a mix of the two girls' outfits would have been perfect.

But, per usual, both girls are looking gorgeous.
