On August 14, the K-Pop idol was featured as a guest in the MBC FM4U radio show called "Kim Shin Young's Noon Song of Hope." DJ Kim Shin Young asked Hyoyeon about how the members were doing. She replied, "It is not easy for the members to meet each other, but I thought we should at least blow out candles. We then agreed to have a reunion with a glamorous concept for our outfit, but I didn't really look at our group chat. I went after searching for a great location, and it turned out they decided not to go with the theme. If you see the pictures uploaded, I am the only one who appears fancy. Everyone else is wearing cozy clothes."

Hyoyeon added, "I took four sets of clothes, but they aborted the plans because they thought it would be a hassle. Also, they settled on ordering delivery food instead. I bought the cake, and we rented a hotel room for our celebration." The artist then uncovered that Sunny is the member who does not talk much in Girls' Generation's group chat, saying, "I don't go through our group chat that often as well, but sometimes I check the number of people because it is like Sunny is not in there."


Kim Shin Young then jokingly said, "Isn't Sunny a ghost at this time then? The "Invincible Youth" team still has a group chat, and Sunny is the manager. She is really talkative in there." Hyoyeon also joked and responded, "I will have to tell the members and kick her out."


Recently, the Girls' Generation members - Taeyeon, Yoona, Sooyoung, Yuri, Sunny, Tiffany, Hyoyeon, and Seohyun - celebrated their 12th anniversary with the fans by posting photos using their Instagram accounts, on August 5. They also rejoiced for Tiffany's birthday that day.


Taeyeon uploaded a series of pictures of her with the other members, with the caption "Girls' Generation 12 years old." Sunny also posted group photos with the hashtags "GG4EVA. Happy 12th anniversary. Girls' Generation. SONE. Let's go for a long time. Let's be happy. I love you." Seohyun, on the other hand, shared images, and wrote "Girls' Generation 12th anniversary, while Tiffany uploaded a video via her Instagram stories, where the members are enjoying the celebration.


Moreover, Hyoyeon's photo post has the captions "12th anniversary," "GG4EVA," and "We'll be together with SONE." She even shared a picture of them on her Instagram stories blowing out the candles on the cake. Sooyoung and Yoona also uploaded a group photo on their Instagram stories.
