We have just seen the photos of the well-loved SM Town family as they flew to their next world tour stop – Los Angeles, California.
Now that they have touched down in LAX hours ago, BoA, Yunho, Changmin, Super Junior, SNSD, SHINee, f(x), Go Ahra, Lee Yeonhee, and the rest of the SM Town were welcomed by an overwhelming number of fans at the airport.
We could not emphasize more how this trip is very special for everyone, not only because of the chartered plane, but also because SM Entertainment will be the first Korean agency to hold a large-scale world tour.
But one artist who definitely felt how special this event is, is SME’s solo performer, BoA. BoA debuted in the United States almost two years ago with a self-titled album, and spent around a year in the said continent promoting her songs. Now, BoA is finally back in the US, but this time not just as a solo artist.
“When I went to LA, I went alone, but now I’m not alone. I came with my SM family,”she said.
Can we not hear BoA’s happiness as she said that? In the meantime, here is a short video of BoA arriving in LA.

Girl’s Generation, who recently landed inLA, held an interview while on the plane heading to LA from Incheon Airport on the 2nd of September. SNSD is currently active in Japan, planning for the release of the first Japanese single album. The sensational girls shared about the incidents that happened to them on their first trip to Japan.
They were heading to Japan for the first time to appear at their showcase on August 22nd, when the plane was hit by lightning during the takeoff. Prior to this, the 9 of them were filming the MV for their Japanese single album when the recording studio transformer was also hit by lightning, putting a halt to their progress and causing commotions from the blackout. The lightning God must have a lot of love for the Soshi girls!
That’s not all, on August 25th, the day of their Japanese showcase, while they were preparing to come out of the dressing room, the whole passageway’s lights went out.
Tiffany stated that:“I was scared since the plane that we rode in for the first schedule in Japan was hit by lightning, but I thought of it as a sign of a big hit coming and did my very best for the showcase.”
While Sooyoungalso stated that: “It just feels like a scene out from a movie, the plane was shaking so violently”. Taeyeon meanwhile complained of their bad luck: “We’ve always experienced blackout incidents during our music video filming, and yet we’ve had another one at the music video filming studio for our Japanese single album.”
Is this a sign of a big hit to come for the girls, or is it just plain bad luck? You decide. Soshi Fighting!
Meanwhile, BoA, Super Junior, f(x), SNSD and a total of 40 SMEntertainment artists arrived at LA Tom Bradley International Airport on September 3rd, 11AM on a chartered jet for their upcoming SMTown Live ’10 World Tour in LA concert.
SME, who hired a Boeing’s 747-400 model were reported to have paid a whooping 10 million won to the airline company. This is by far a first for any company.

Taiwan fans recently had some luck as Taiwan’s Channel V, a music program, held an exclusive interview with Taeyang of Big Bang fame. The VJ went to Korea to interview him, marking the first time Taiwan media have had the opportunity to get close to a member of the popular boyband, Big Bang.
The VJ revealed “I feel that Taeyang was a very nice person. When he came to know that there are many Taiwanese fans waiting for him, he promised that if there is chance, he hopes to meet up with them soon”
Skip to 4:43 for the interview with the ever charming Taeyang!
VJ : “Hello, I’m currently at the backstage of Music Bank! Look who’s here , it’s Taeyang !
‘Annehasayo’ “
Taeyang : *break out in laughter*. ”Hey, what’s going on Channel V“
VJ : “We, Taiwan, finally have a chance to seeTaeyang, there are a lot of fans here who adore you, would you like to give a shout out to them.”
Taeyang : “I’m really excited to be here meeting all the fans who adore me, I hope there will be more chances in the future to meet up with you guys. I’m really happy. “
VJ : “Normally artists have a lot of waiting time backstage, how do you spend your time here, Taeyang?” Taeyang : “Usually before I go on stage, I’ll ponder over matters related to the stage, I will rehearse what I’m going to down on stage and at the same time relax my nerves. I would also try hard to keep my brain empty”
VJ : “I know that for every artist, going on to the stage requires lots of focus and concentration, what is your method for that?” Taeyang : “Firstly, I like to listen to my favorite songs, sometimes I just closed my eyes and put myself in a blank. As everyone can see, normally there’s lot of people backstage so what I do is spend some solitary time in the washroom for example to get away from all the buzz”
VJ :“There’s actually lot of difference between performing solo and as a group, what do you personally think about that?”
Taeyang : “For my own stage, I’m in charge of everything, I have 100% say in most of the stuff. For Big Bang’s stage, we have to listen to every member’s opinions , I think that’s the difference, but no matter what, we are doing music so our point of views are normally the same. In Big Bang, we can carry out diversity of music, but when I’m solo, I can express my own charms”
VJ : “We are very happy to have a chance to interview Taeyang, let’s hope that he will come to Taiwan soon to meet everyone again. Thank you Taeyang“
Taeyang : “Thank you Channel V, thanks so much.”
