Girls’ Generation’s Members Playfully Wish Tiffany a Happy Birthday

Girls’ Generation’s Tiffany is getting lots of love from not just her fans, but also from her teammates.

On August 1, members Taeyeon, Jessica, Sunny, and Yuri went to their personal social network service and posted photos with the birthday girl.
Taeyeon wrote on her account, “Happy B-day, my American friend♥.” She includes four shots where Tiffany’s the one who holds the camera while she makes silly and goofy poses.

Yuri added on her account, “Happy b day tiff ♥ #I’mhappythatwecanbetogether.” Her photo sets a more romantic mood with the birthday candle solely providing light in the room and there are couple of desserts with two forks, which hints that they went on a date- just the two of them.

YG Entertainment is Unstoppable: Storm to Hit in Second Half of 2013



YG Entertainment is Unstoppable: Storm to Hit in Second Half of 2013

YG Entertainment appears to be on the move this year.
For the summer, Kang Seung Yoon began the race with her debut song "It's Raining" last month. The song swept the charts as soon as it was released. One month later, she sings her title song "Wild and Young". With full support from Yang Hyun Suk of YG Entertainment, Kang Seung Yoon kicked off on the right foot as a newly debuted singer. Yang Hyun Suk focused on working on Kang Seung Yoon's music video after working on Psy's "Gangnam Style" and "Gentleman" music videos.
2NE1 is up next. CL already made her solo debut earlier this summer and on August 7, all the members of 2NE1 will stand together on stage. 2NE1 will release their second title song "Do You Love Me" via YouTube on August 7. It is predicted to be another global hit.

This is not the end for YG. The world stars of the Big Bang members will make their solo comebacks as well. First up will be Seungri. After debuting as a solo artist in 2011, Seungri is making his comeback as a solo artist. The second mini-album consists of 6 songs including the title song "I Have Something To Say."
G-Dragon will follow and then Taeyang right after. It has been reported that Yang Hyun Suk is spending days and nights in the studio with Seungri, G-Dragon and Taeyang to prepare for their comebacks.
It doesn't end there. Global star Psy appears as though he is preparing to release another song. YG entertainment is remaining silent regarding the topic which most likely means "YES."
If Psy will also make his comeback this year, the lineup of YG artists is incredible. Kang Seung Yoon, 2NE1, Seungri, Psy, G-Dragon, Taeyang... the lineup is intimidating beyond belief. It is to the point where YG Family members may have to compete against one another. Other entertainment agencies seem to be on their toes as YG artists' comeback dates approach.
