Wonder Girls leave messages for birthday girl, Sohee!

On June 27th, the Wonder Girls congratulated Sohee on her birthday through Twitter messages.

First to tweet was Yubin, who said,

“Happy Birthday Sohee. Let’s burn it up later“

Lim also mentioned Sohee, saying,

“Sohee, Happy Birthday“

In the afternoon, Yeeun posted,

“Our Sohee is 20 years old. I can’t believe it.“

Fans who saw the tweets commented, “Though it is short, they show each member’s character“, “Looks like Yeeun can’t believe that Sohee is an adult now“, and “Yubin seems like a wild unni“.

Several netizens are waiting for leader Sunye’s final congratulatory message. Some have said, “Can’t believe the leader Sunye hasn’t posted a message yet. I wonder if she is waiting to give her message last” and “She probably already congratulated Sohee in person but I wish she would post a message too.”

The Wonder Girls featured in ‘PAPERMAG’!

The Wonder Girls got some positive press recently in PAPERMAG, a prominent pop culture magazine!

Although sparse in new details – the article rehashes previous Wonder Girls coverage by giving a quick summary of their training, rise to popularity, and being openers for the Jonas Brothers - they are listed under “2011’s Beautiful People”.


Seeing as how the girls were also interviewed by Fashion TV during New York Fashion Week, it looks as if the girls are steadily gaining North American interest!

Check out some pictures from the set below, as posted by Lim!
