Girls Generation Leaves MC Positions To Prepare For Japan

Girls Generation is set to make their Japanese debut in August and that means any regular positions on shows will have to be vacated by the members. Taeyeon was the first to leave her position at the KBS 2TV show, Win Win, which will also be losing 2PM’s Wooyoung. It’s a shame because that show has been a success solely because of the MCing. It was also announced that Yuri and Tiffany will be leaving their spots as MCs on Music Core. They had been MCs since April 2009 after Solbi, Daesung and Seungri left.

I’d like to start a petition for two members of SHINee to fill in as MCs please. There hasn’t been any word as to what will happen to Seohyun’s We Got Married filming. The hit show revolves around “married” couples and Seohyun is a regular alongside her “husband” Yonghwa from C.N.Blue.

“2PM’s Wooyoung and SNSD’s Taeyeon will leave the MC position of KBS 2TV’s ‘WinWin’. The exact date of their leave is undecided.

One of the broadcasting staff stated on the 28th, “Wooyoung and Taeyeon will leave soon, and we are currently looking for their replacements.”

Wooyoung will be leaving due to 2PM’s busy schedule, and Taeyeon due to SNSD’s Japanese promotions.

Wooyoung and Taeyeon were part of the original members of ‘WinWin’ which first aired in February, and led the program with main MC’s Kim Seungwoo, Choi Hwajung, and Kim Shinyoung. Wooyoung exceeded the expectations as an entertainment idol with his witty comments, and Taeyeon, who had prior experiences of positions like radio DJ, took part in the big popularity of ‘WinWin’ with her smooth MCing.”
