‘The Guardian‘, a famous British newspaper has published an article about K-pop and Girls’ Generation.

The article starts with mentioning PSY as the most famous K-pop artist, but later focuses on Girls’ Generation plan to release an all-English album, and the possibility of their successful entry into the Western music market.

The article says:  ‘Girls’ Generation , a nine-member Korean girl group who had racked up millions of sales throughout east Asia long before Psy made “air” horse-riding socially acceptable, are poised to release their first album recorded entirely in English.’ and ‘Tentatively due for release next year by Lady Gaga‘s label, Interscope, the album will mark the group’s first serious effort to court English-speaking music fans. The women, all aged between 21 and 23, are the obvious choice to take up Psy’s mantle in the UK, where artists who sell millions of albums in Korea and Japan are known only to a small number of K-pop devotees.’
