However on March 27th, a Girls’ Generation representative informed MyDaily, “Girls’ Generation members Sunny and Hyoyeon will not be leaving ‘Invincible Youth 2′.”

Lee Soo Geun is leaving the show to spend some more time with his wife who is ill, and Ji Hyun Woo wants to focus on his new tvN drama in which he has been recently cast as a male lead.

But the G8 members including f(x)‘s Amber, Jewelry‘s Yewon, Rainbow‘s Woori, Girls’ Generation members Sunny & Hyoyeon, KARA‘s Kang Jiyoung, SISTAR‘s Bora, and miss A’s Suzy have not yet made official decisions as whether to stay or leave the show.

Sharp-eyed viewers noticed a considerable difference in the sizes of the two ladies’ legs and as a result, there have been much discussion in the online world regarding it.

Netizens made varying comments such as, “I don’t think it is because Suzy is fat, but Hyoyeon is really skinny” , “Their legs are twice the difference in size” , “Suzy said she is the type of person who gains weight from just water… but she is pretty anyways” and, “Guys don’t like chopstick legs, but prefer legs like Suzy’s or Hyosung‘s“.

It is indeed impossible to stop time.

SNSD (Girls’ Generation), Wonder Girls, Kara, T-ara, B2ST, and MBLAQ‘s members that were born in the later half of the 1980s and the early 1990s have led the boy group/ girl group craze the past few years. However, the once young and fresh idols have now become mature sunbae stars, and the younger members have taken their places.

In the music industry, the new leading faces of the idols are the ones born between 1994 and 1996, and the ones born in the mid- 90s. It has now become the norm to meet the mid 90s idols on any music show.

At the forefront of the mid-90s idols are stars born in 1994, or high school seniors this year, such as f(x)‘s Sulli and Krystal, miss A‘s Suzy, 4Minute‘s Kwon So Hyun, and Dal Shabet‘s Subin.

After only 2-3 years since their debut, with their charming looks and innocence being a given, these stars have a prominent presence in not only the music industry, but also in dramas and variety shows. They have already become top star grade. Furthermore, showing constant improvement and endless possibilities, these 1994 stars are gaining fandom day by day.

Furthermore, there are plenty of idol singers even younger than the 1994 stars.

A Pink‘s Kim Namjoo, Boyfriend‘s twin brothers Kwangmin and Youngmin, as well as Minwoo, B.A.P‘s Jongup, and other stars that have been very active since their debut last year and this year are at the forefront of the 1995s.

Rookie group Nu’est will be debuting this month from Pledis Entertainment (company of After School and Son Dambi). Four of the five members, J.R, Len, Baekho, and Minhyun are 1995s, attracting much attention.

The youngest of the mid 90s idols are the 96 stars A Pink‘s Oh Hayoung, and B.A.P‘s Zelo.

However, while the mid 90s idols have an advantage of having started the idol lifestyle early, they also have disadvantages.

The lack of harmonious development of skills and character due to experience are one of them.

One expert in the music industry commented, “Even if they debuted at a young age, a pro ought to be a pro” and “especially if they pass the age of twenty, the industry and the fans both have higher standards, and if the stars do not constantly concentrate on improving their skills, they could die out, just like that.”

Furthermore, he advised, “After becoming a star at a young age, if even temporarily, they start losing popularity, there are instances where they will stray majorly. To prevent this, both the stars and the recording company must do their best to develop their emotional growth.”

miss A‘s Suzy recently responded to netizens after being criticized for always mentioning actor Kim Soo Hyun on television.

On March 2nd, Suzy simply wrote “Script” on her Twitter. The meaning behind this short tweet was a response to what happened on the March 2nd live broadcast of SBS‘s ‘100 Million Quiz Show‘.

During the live broadcast, one of the quiz questions on the show was related to cell phones. MC Kim Yong Man then asked Suzy, who appeared as a guest, “Is there a celebrity whom you want to have a couple cell phone with?” to which Suzy replied, “Before, I was happy just knowing that I had the same cell phone as Kim Dong Won. Now, I’d like to have a couple cell phone with the popular King.”

The “King” Suzy was referring to was none other than Kim Soo Hyun from MBC‘s drama ‘The Moon that Embraces the Sun‘.

Although it was only a brief conversation, netizens criticized Suzy for continuously mentioning the handsome actor. “Suzy sure mentions him a lot these days“, and “Are they really not in some sort of relationship?” netizens commented

Once netizens began flooding online community boards with comments regarding her and Kim Soo Hyun, Suzy ended up making the one-word post “Script“, meaning that it was all scripted, onto her Twitter.

After seeing her tweet, Netizens replied, “Because the two are very popular lately, it seems like broadcast stations also wanted to mention the two“, “Suzy must be tired of all these criticisms“, and “Then is Suzy blaming the PD of the program?”

Idols, whom people usually expect to be naive and young, have been surprising the general public with their deep thoughts on civil responsibilities and current social issues – earning themselves the nickname of ‘sensible idols’.

On a recent episode of JTBC‘s ‘Idol Quiz Show Premiere’, Jewelry‘s Yewon was asked to describe the ‘Ahn Chul Soo Syndrome’. Yewon impressed the audience with her articulate answer, “Those people who are tired of the existing government have started desiring people like Ahn Chul Soo, who are highly innovative. This is what we call the ‘Ahn Chul Soo Syndrome’.”

Although she is still young, Yewon was able to consistently express her opinions coherently, shedding the naive and shallow image that often surround idols.

SECRET‘s Sunhwa also guested on the show, and MC Kim Gura asked the singer if there were any current events or issues that have caught her attention. Sunhwa answered that she was concerned about the expensive cost of kindergarten. “Private kindergartens are too expensive for parents so they prefer public education, but the waiting list is long and parents are unable to send their children to school,” she said.

SISTAR‘s Hyorin was also noted for having voiced her own opinion on the price of school tuition previously, while Girls’ Generation‘s Sunny disagreed with her fellow cast members on the issue of desire for cutting-edge technology on ‘Invincible Youth 2′. Sunny disagreed saying that kimchi refrigerators cannot replace Korea’s traditional crocks, and rice is best made in again, a traditional iron pot rather than an electric rice cooker.

Meanwhile, miss A‘s Suzy impressed Entertainer Boom along with the rest of the ‘Invincible Youth 2‘ cast on the December 17th episode with her manners. She showed through her actions that she was just as kind as she was beautiful. Invincible Youth G8 members remarked, “Suzy works just as hard when the cameras are off.”

Even after the cameras were turned off, Suzy thanked the village ladies who helped them make their kimchi, even calling them ‘Mom’, which touched the heart of the staff members. She also gave out massages to the mothers who were tired and exhausted.

T-ARA‘s Hyomin took the time out of her jam-packed schedule to vote at the elections that were held in Seoul in October. Other idols over the age of 20 were also seen casting their votes, serving as a good example for others.

And in celebration of Social Welfare Day, the boys of 2AM visited Infant-Youth facility ‘Good House’ to hand out chicken for the children there. They even held a small concert and signed autographs, creating an unforgettable experience for the children.

There have been many other cases of idols participating in good causes. Some have partnered up with non-profit organizations to raise awareness of various social issues, while some have taken a direct approach by donating money, or taking the time to volunteer.

In some ways, idols are one of the most influential group of people that can impact young adults. If they continue to have positive influence over the young generation, the things they can accomplish and the number of people they can potentially impact are endless.
