Hyoyeon

• Eating has always come up whenever and wherever. Maybe it's because we're girls, we have a lot of interest in eating.
• Every single member is so precious to me and like family to me. I may joke around with them a lot but I can't talk seriously with them... because it's awkward for me. But on the inside, I really do think of each one of you so much and I want you all to know that.
• I met eight great members. I really don't think that anyone else could get along like how our nine girls get along so well. Because we're girls, there can be a lot of jealousy going on. Thinking back on it now, I think I'm a kid who received a lot of good fortune.
• It's so tiring. Even though I've worn heels and performed the choreography for four years now, I'm still not used to it. When will I be used to it? In 10 years? In 20 years?

Jessica

• During these nine months, as we had our break time, I think we grew to know each other better... And during this time, so many things happened and we grew more mature and learned to truly love and care for each other.
• I used to drink from my little sister's bottle when she was a baby.
• I wish SNSD's way down can be more beautiful than anyone else's and that we will enjoy what we have right now. I wish we would all do things with a positive mind.
• If no one wakes me up? I have recently slept for 16 hours. I could've slept longer, but my mom woke me up to eat.
• It's really hard when we have a full schedule since we aren't able to sleep, so we get emotionally and physically tired. But every time that happens, I see that the other eight members are performing as much as I am while being as tired as I am. They, being my members, are my companions, and I get the strength to continue on. I just get strength from them because we're together.
• They say if you fall, someone who loves you, will lend a hand for you, here i have 8 pairs of hands, always ready to hold me back up when I stumble backwards.

Seohyun

• 'Entertainers have no brain' I get frustrated when I hear things like that from people. We have different goals. We have our own ways. I try to do the best I can, but still...
• I am still a student. My classmates study really hard, so I feel like I should too. But they always say things like 'You don't have to.' 'Aren't you busy?' 'Just give up, you have another way.' But I don't think that's right. There's no reason for me to give up, I didn't quit high school.
• I truly have nothing but gratitude for my unnies. I'm just so thankful and I really can't say anything other than just thank you.
• I would like Taeyeon unnie to be the leader, but like Hyoyeon unnie said, I think she's carrying a lot of burdens by being in that position. So, I'll just leave it to the unnies.
• It's not worth comparing; Kara and SNSD are both Korean girl groups. I'm proud that Korean girl groups are being recognized in Japan. Everyone has their preferences. There are people who like SNSD and there are people who like Kara.
• Taeyeon unnie... when she has stomach ache but she wants ice cream then she eats ice cream. She will eat and say *Oh I think I have stomach trouble but oh this taste good~*
• There are many incidents where the unnies and I had disagreements... we disagreed on little things. But I learned a lot through those arguments.
• Unhealthy diets and junk foods accumulate and eventually you'll die.

Sooyoung

• Every time we reach number one and while watching the confetti fall I think. 'Until how long can we be showered with confetti?' However, if we try our hardest right now, even if our popularity falls, I won't have any regrets.
• I guess it's because they've lived apart from their families for so long, but whenever ther''s a difficult time for them, they hide it.. Taeyeon and Tiffany both, we know that you're both weak so stop trying to act strong and talk to me. We're a family so I want us to share with each other.
• I really wish that we all stay healthy so we can spend a longer time together as a group.
• Nine people who are very different from each other, have now become one.
• Seohyun's so pure that if Seohyun wasn't a singer, she'd still be singing nursery rhymes. Seohyun watches TV until 2am in the morning. What she watches is the cartoon channel.
• Tiffany gave me a man made in chocolate as a birthday present. It comforted me. At least I got my man... a chocolate one.
• To my precious members, who I hope to be with forever, I love you and thank you so much.
• We think it is a great honor that we were able to appear on French TV after US TV. During our appearance on 'Le Grand Journal', the French fans sang in Korean and also gave us cheers that made the performance both comfortable and exciting.
• When I was there, I took the underground trains... (talking about her days in Route 0). Now when we arrive at the airport, there are cars waiting for us. So when I went this time, I felt humbled. What I couldn't do alone then has become possible because I'm together with these eight. They all became even more precious to me.
• You asked us about teamwork, but really there is no secret. We just live like sisters.

Sunny

• And then despite the fact that she's the maknae, she really doesn't seem like it. She's so young and pure to the point that she still loves children stories. But without her, we cannot be SNSD. Our Seohyun.
• For me, each one of our SNSD members is like my body. If one gets hurt or hears bad things from someone else, it hurts me and pains me even more. It's impossible for only good things to happen to someone and so there were difficult times and hurtful times. But during those times, I'm so thankful that we were each other's strength and each other's support.
• If I end up showering first, I shower really quickly for the sake of the other tired members.
• Taeyeon sings the best among the girl groups. That is what I hear in my ears.
• We will show you a SNSD that works even harder in the future. We will try hard to deserve even more love in the future as well.
• Yesterday is a history, tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, that's why we call it the present.

Taeyeon

• Actually when I'm depressed or feeling down, I seem to play quiet music and enjoy the time. So I listen to a lot of ballads and I try to enjoy the time with music.
• Being on stage is so much fun and enjoyable. Because it's a lot of fun, we work really hard on music programs and our eyes automatically open up. Because this is where I'm most confident and where I'm at my best, I found a way to enjoy all of it. And I'm still searching for more ways.
• Between people who truly care and love each other, there are times where you don't need to say anything at all. Those emotions that are hard to express with words. Things like “I love you” and “Thank you”…you don't really need to say those words.”
• From now on I will be loving more and more and I don't think it will ever turn less.
• Hyoyeon is a member whose life is fun. Just the fact that she's here is enough, and she plays the role of brightening the mood. She tries to brighten the mood and is one of the members who makes it a fun environment.
• If there's something you want to do, then that means you have a goal. But that goal may change as you live. You never know when your interests may change direction, so always anticipate it, day by day.
• I'm just so glad that I have other members. If I was a solo artist, I don't think I would have been able to make it this far, nor would I have been able to handle it. The members are my energizers, my vitamin, my strength.
• Nobody can touch SNSD when we're well armed! We're the best! Hurray! keke... And lastly for real, Taeyeon, you've worked hard...
• So let's become best friends that don't get ashamed of each other but cherish and have plenty of care for each other.
• SONE, Thank you so much. We have so many schedules, and you get tired together with us. And to the SNSD members as well, thank you.
• These days it's hard for all of us to get together. It's been some time since we were able to get together and talk like this. Since we are nine members, a group with many members, we need to talk like this more but the members have so many individual schedules now.
• We can at least go backstage where it's cool and get rest, but the fans have to stay and watch in the heat. It's not me mom... it's the fans who have it hard.
• When I have the opportunity, I want to perform the guitar live for my fans. Please expect that!
• When there are hurtful times and sad times, I've come to find that there is no one else but these nine people here. Even really close oppas or manager oppas... if they're not in SNSD, no one really knows and understands. There were so many times like that and I wish that there will be no more times of hurt and sadness that brings us to tears... I love you, our SNSD.

Tiffany

• Also when we are performing this (Himnae!), there's a part in the choreography that says "Fighting!" with everyone coming together. When our eyes meet doing that part, it's the happiest time during the performance...
• Although she departed from me first, she left me with eight sisters. So I want to thank both my mom and God...
• During those nine months, so many things happened and I went through so many different emotions and realized so many things. It was such an important time where I felt the precious value of the stage and the precious value of each other. And so I'm grateful.
• Even if other people tell you otherwise, if you just believe in yourself, you can do everything.
• I really didn't want to cry! Thank you so so much, I love you all! In the future, I will work harder and present everyone better pieces of work. And... (points at the cake and candle) this is JJANG!!
• It's as much passion as you have, just follow it, and you can be where you want to be. I mean, I am.
• I'm crying because I'm touched by my members who always try to look out for me.
• They say 'Lucky Number 7' but Lucky Number 9 has been ingrained in my head. My lucky number is 9.
• We weren't afraid like, oh what if we lose to someone, it was we didn't want to lose to ourselves.

Yoona

• During our break time, I was filming a drama. And so as I went out alone to do my schedule by myself, I thought of our members a lot more... But really, those text messages and phone calls while I was filming was really such a great encouragement for me.
• I couldn't stand in front of any camera, and I couldn't go to places where there were a lot of people. I thought people would criticize me if I smiled, or even if I just stayed still.
• I mean we can't be promoting as SNSD until we're ahjummas. However, like Shinhwa sunbaenims, even when everyone is focusing on their individual activities, I would like for us to get together and hold a concert or release albums... I want SNSD to be like that.
• I think "as expected" is such a great phrase. I'll always work hard for you to say, "As expected of SNSD!" ^^"

Yuri

• As we grow older, I don't think people would want to see us shaking lollipops and acting all cute. Instead, they would want us to strive to perfect ourselves as artists. If that's the case, then we're confident that we can be such artists.
• During these nine months, we really held on to each other and guided each other and pushed each other. And I'm so happy that we were able to have those precious times together. We've been through so much together so let's... together... leap even stronger now. And... I love you.
• I think it thanks to all the loving fans over anything else. This is not a day for us to be congratulated but a day for us to congratulate the fans. We can only shine brightest as SNSD when SNSD stand on one stage as nine.
• I think it's great that a group of friends are pursuing a single dream and creating amazing memories in the process.
• Thank you so much to the staff who took nine average girls and turned them into SNSD.
• While we were doing our promotions, there were a lot of times when I was exhausted and tired, but since the other members were beside me... If it wasn't for those friends, the amount of love that I'm receiving right now as a member of SNSD, I could never have received that if I'm alone.
• You can do it if you slowly try... and you can't do it in front of the camera only. Not lying to yourself is the most important.
• How long do we rest? Around 4 hours. We fill up the sleep we don't get during travel time. It's fine.

Taeyeon & Sooyoung

• Indeed, we are nine girls, so sometimes there are nine different opinions which can be a problem. But we always find a solution. We have never come to blows. Some of us know each others for 10 to 13 years, so we know each other pretty well.

Taeyeon & Sunny

• In the name of Dandyu, we punish all you tall people.

Group

• Thanks to everyone who made it possible for us to stand at this honorable position. After last year, we are given good award again, we feel proud. We will continue developing ourselves to repay all the people who helped us stand at this highest place. SONE, we love you!
• The only reason we could come to America, that we got such a reaction, was because of our fans here.
• We made a comeback within 9 months... and for 9 weeks, the 9 members received 9 trophies.
• We've been very excited from the time, when the decision of our appearance on the show was made, until we completed the performance. It was a very great and happy time to perform on 'The Late Show With David Letterman'
• When we were first told that we were confirmed to be on a famous American TV show, all of us just cried. We didn't believe it until we got here and actually performed in front of the live audience and the cameras. It was just so surreal and such a big honor. It was an experience that none of us will ever forget.
