1. where can i find the english version of snsd's new songs? (can anyone translate it to me and just post to the lyrics forums?)
according to : alainachen_604:

http://www.ambition.cjb.net2. how many years did each member were trained by SM?
according to : alainachen_604
like 5-7 but for Sunny was just like 3 by another company x)
according to __m i s h;k i m
With the exception of Sunny who trained for 2-3 years, the rest were trained for i think 5 + years.
3. what is the religion of each members?
4. what is the difference between the years in korea and the natural year.. (im kinda confused with some of the age of korean celebrities)
(example: minhwan of ft island was born on november 11, 1992, so he's 15, but some says he's already 17 in korea..)
(waaahhh..iwant the exact age of the members of snsd ,...so pls help me...)
according to crazyfrog
sorry i can only answer this one..
basically in Korean culture, they start counting your age when you are in your mother's womb, so that 9 months when your mum was pregnant, that's counted as a year of your life. so when you're born, you're already one! so i guess the only different is that in korea, you're one year older... so i'm not sure why that guy is 17, i think he should be 16? not sure...? o.O
according to omaetofu:
>>I.E. for Minhwan, he just turned 16 today but in Korea he'd be 17. Because I think in Korea, you're 1 years old when you're born. So all the girls are one year older than what would be of their age in America. :-D
You should really check in the SNSD forums! 8-D You'd probably find your answers there, or you can check wikipedia. LOL. XD
according to __m i s h;k i m
The lunar calender makes a person 1 year old once they're born. They age every new year.
5. i just love sooyoung.. i have watched videos of her with sungmin of suju. is she the girlfriend of sungmin? (sungmin was my fave in suju.. so i just wanna know. but if they are more than friends..oh well..it is still ok..i just love watching them. they look good together.)
according to : alainachen_604
NOOO. its illegal xD shes only 17 and hes like 19-20 o.o
according to __m i s h;k i m
No, she is not the girlfriend of Sungmin. He's
23 years old (Korean age) and she is
19 (Korean age), but they keep saying they're like brother and sister. Meaning, technically they're close, but not THAT close. Training together for a couple years would make it seem like they're close.
according to tangerine kisses
ILU. <3>friendship haha
but i love them anyways.
B6. it was said that tiffany was born and raised in america. so in her birth certificate, she is an american, according to the law? but of course korean by blood?)
according to __m i s h;k i m
[edit] mmk i didn't know, so if she's born in America, and if her parents had a green card or if her parents became american citizens before she turned 18 in August, then yes she is certified (Korean-)American.
according to smile-iw

6. I don't think it's ever been mentioned that Tiffany was BORN in America, just raised.
Thankyoumish~
But Tiffany was born in the US. She mentioned it in Arirang Midday Break~

(PAINPHOBIA!) Shes such a nice leader, and I really admire her for that <3>AND make those haters go @#$#@$%#$ xD
jk x_x
7. about jessica: i have been hearing and reading rumors (or truth?) that she went out with SM people..went on a date. im pretty jealous but i dont hate her. its her right if she wanted to go out with them and same with suju and dbsk members..can anyone send me the said pics where she went out with them,?)
according to : alainachen_604
have no idea if its true are not, but they just RUMORS
people could've been jelous so they made up the rumors, cause shes close to the boys <3 style="font-weight: bold;">8. about yuri and yoona..can someone help me how to distinguished yoona and yuri.. they look the same..
according to : alainachen_604
LOL T.T"
Yoonah is more pretty in my opinion she was in alot of sm's music videos like dbsk magic castle, superjunior - u
and did many cf's
according to __m i s h;k i m
Rumors.
according to tangerine kisses
exact reason why they're called rumors. and we, people here at thread, have put that rumor into its deathbed.
according to hyuksu
Just remember that Yoona is almost always in the center of their pictures and their dances. LOL
9. i have just watched the video of the "mini concert" of snsd in FM Inkigayo.. in the 2 songs, mirror mirror and lucky, if im not mistaken, taeyeon , jessica, tiffany and seohyun sang the songs...of course tiffany and jessica know english well.. is seohyun and taeyeon know how to speak and understand english well..?
according to : alainachen_604
LOL Im pretty sure they just memorized the lyrics? xD
or maybe Tiffany & Jessica just taught them a little bit of english
I only answered some of your questions, hope thats okay
according to __m i s h;k i m
Seohyun and Taeyeon had a pretty good command at speaking english in the first place, but because it's a song, all they really needed to do was memorize.
10. about the mini concerty again, if im not mistaken..in the song mirror mirror, who did not get the high notes..tiffany or seohyun? just curious.
