[TRANS] http://bit.ly/2mWx6B2 Sooyoung's interview with Sports Donga (part2)

-"10th anniversary album, the best event we've anticipated since last year."

Following the release of their 5th official album, 'Lion Heart', in August 2015, Girls' Generation has been doing individual activities. This year, in particular, Yuri took on her first lead role in the SBS drama 'Defendant', and Seohyun will be starring in the MBC weekend drama 'Bad Thief, Good Thief' starting in May. Yoona enjoyed the success of her first film 'Confidential Assignment', which released in January. Sooyoung started acting early on in November 2011 through the daily sitcom, 'Unstoppable Marriage'.

-Yuri and Seohyun seem to be rising as actors.

"For her role in 'Defendant', Yuri studied a lot about the occupation of a lawyer. She worried a lot about her Girls' Generation image overlapping with her character. But as the episodes went on, she seemed to adapt to the character. As a friend, I feel like she overcame it well, so I was proud. Seohyun has good emotions. She always surprises me. I worry if she will be able to do something well, and she does. She's the youngest sibling that does everything well without us having to worry."

-Of the 20 years of Korean girl groups, Girls' Generation takes up 10 years. The pride you have must be great.

"Until 2 years ago (promoting as a group), I didn't realize how much meaning the work I've done so far had. I think I didn't understand how difficult and big of a deal it was winning a daesang, going on overseas tours, and doing other things as a girl group. I was busy just doing what was in front of me, and getting on stage. Doing individual activities made me think how the things I do as Girls' Generation is the most valuable thing I can do. I've received love that exceeds my abilities. I was able to ride the ship called Girls' Generation because it was with all 8 of us."

-I feel like you would have felt the most empty(?I think) when your debut colleagues Wonder Girls broke up.

"I really admired seeing Wonder Girls transform into a band. If someone told us to attempt a change like that after putting on performances for 10 years, I wonder if we could have done it. I was curious about their transformation, so I looked up all of their interviews. Wonder Girls were a good stimulant, and we were a good driving force to one another. (Their breaking up) made me sad as a fan, but I'm still supporting them as colleagues. Because we can still listen to their music."

-I heard your 10th anniversary album releases in the summer.

"We are going to do (a 10th anniversary album), it's matter of fact, and all the members showed a desire for it since last year. It's the biggest event the members have been anticipating."
