‘Sports Korea’ press agency of Korea revealed the poll of 100 professional opinion in Korean entertainment industry that “Which entertainment companies are mostly influent in Korea?” The result was SM Entertainment is a company that is powerful influence in Korea for 28 votes.
Kim Kil Ho, Director of the Entertainment Management Association, said “SM Entertainment was the company that focused on Korean culture and business in Japan after Girls’ Generation debuted in Japan and became successful.”
Girls’ Generation also won the “Star of the Year” award with 36 votes, making it the first time ever for a company to win both the “Entertainment Power of the Year” and the “Star of the Year” awards.
In an interview, Girls’ Generation said “The moment for debut in Japan is a memorable moment. We want to go on a world tour in 2011 and make people learn more about Korean culture.”
Although there are many entertainment companies in Korea, I think that SM Entertainment and their singers are the powerful influence in Korea. Not only for Girls’ Generation, but also Super Junior, SHINee, f(x), etc those are influent and popular in Korea and some parts in Asia. This news is evidence to prove that they are powerful influence through the award that they claimed.
For Girls’ Generation, who won the “Star of the Year” award, are not really surprised me because I already predicted from their works in this year, especially many awards that they claimed this year. They deserve to claim this award because Girls’ Generation have been working hard in this year. They also did very well in their performance in their country and oversea country like Japan. I cannot agree more to say that this year is a year of Girls’ Generation actually.
