Girls’ Generation Taeyeon Shares Adorable Video of Her Impersonating 2-Year-Old Nonoka Murakata
Two-year-old Nonoka Murakata has recently gone viral in South Korea, and Taeyeon confidently showed fans that she is a huge fan through a video Instagram Stories!
Nonoka Murakata is a two-year-old Japanese girl who recently competed in a televised Japanese nursery rhyme contest. On the show, Nonoka sang "Copper the Dog" and won the silver prize. Despite not winning the gold, the video of Nonoka singing went viral for her cute pronunciation, her adorable hand movements, and for her petite stature!
Recently, Girls' Generation member Taeyeon was seen following Nonoka Murakata's Instagram account, which is run by her mom. This was enough to prove Taeyeon is a huge fan of the toddler. However, the idol decided to take it a step further and surprised fans with an adorable video of her imitating Nonoka Murakata's performance of "Copper the Dog".
On Tuesday, Jan. 19, Taeyeon shared the video to her Instagram story. She is seen in a dress and her hair tied into two pretzel-shaped braids, mimicking Nonoka Marukata's hairstyle in her viral video. The caption included in the post reads, "This is a video I had planned to keep private, but I am a true fan, so I am doing this."
Taeyeon continued to shower Nonoka Marukata with adoring words. In another Instagram Story, Taeyeon shared a screenshot of Nonoka from her viral video to her Instagram with the caption, "I am a Nonoka fan. I really like her a lot."
She shared yet another screenshot of Nonoka from her viral video, this time accompanies with heart emojis to show her love for the toddler. The caption for this photo reads, "Going forward, please let us hear more good songs." She also tagged Nonoka's official Instagram page in both Instagram Stories.
Nonoka Murakata saw Taeyeon's Instagram Stories and reposted them to her Stories. In response, she states, "Thank you!!!!" In Nonoka's official YouTube channel, her mother is seen teaching her some Korean phrases, meaning her mother has probably learned a few words in the language due to her sudden popularity in the country.
Nonoka Murakata shared Taeyeon's second story about her Instagram Story, showing her gratitude by saying "Thank you very much".

2020 was quite the year for Taeyeon. On May 4, 2020, the idol released the digital single "Happy" after it was delayed. It was originally scheduled to be released on May 9, 2020, to celebrate her birthday. The release was postponed due to her father's death that day and was further postponed due to her grandmother's passing a month later.
On Nov. 18, 2020, Taeyeon dropped her second Japanese-language extended play "#GirlsSpkOut". A month later, on Dec. 15, 2020, Taeyeon dropped her fourth-language extended play "What Do I Call You", with a title track of the same name. Taeyeon performed the song for the first time on Jan. 1, 2021, in her set for SMTOWN LIVE's "Culture Humanity" online concert.
