Everyone, meet my newest guilty pleasure.
This is SNSD. *headdesking*
You see, I was planning to write something deep and profound about writing and how stupid I was for giving up fanfic for two years out of frustration with my prose, but then I thought screw it, I'll post about Korean girls in mini-skirts instead.
Because that is essentially what SNSD is: a group of nine 20 year-old Korean women who dress like they're in middle school. The members are all capable of singing and dancing, but judging by the pure bubblegum pop of their singles and their shamelessly cute (albeit in a loli kind of way) music videos, whatever talent they might possess is clearly not the focus of their appeal. Case in point:
They even have the whole "high kick in front of the camera so that you can see our panties for a millisecond" thing. I mean, come on.
