Girls' Generation (Hangul: 소녀시대; So Nyeo Si Dae), also known as SNSD, is a South Korean girl group formed by S.M. Entertainment. Originally composed of nine members, the group is currently composed of eight–Taeyeon, Sunny, Tiffany, Hyoyeon, Yuri, Sooyoung, Yoona, and Seohyun. Girls' Generation officially debuted on August 5, 2007 with "Into the New World" and subsequently gained some attention with their eponymous debut album. However, it was not until 2009 that they rose to prominence with the single "Gee", which claimed the top spot on KBS's Music Bank for a record-breaking nine consecutive weeks and was named the most popular song of the 2000s in South Korea by Melon.^[1] The group consolidated their popularity on the South Korean music scene with follow-up singles "Tell Me Your Wish (Genie)", "Oh!", and "Run Devil Run", which were released in mid-2009 and early 2010.

In mid-2010, the group signed with Nayutawave Records (present-day EMI Records Japan) to venture into the Japanese music scene. Their eponymous Japanese debut album released in 2011 peaked atop the Japanese Oricon Albums Chart and became the first album by a non-Japanese girl group to achieve a double platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of Japan. They returned to the South Korean music scene in October 2011 with their third studio album The Boys, which was the best-selling album in the Gaon Music Chart history with over 457,000 copies sold in South Korea. During this time, the group also expanded their endeavor to the United States by signing with Interscope Records to release an English version of the single "The Boys", which did not meet with success as expected. Girls' Generation's 2013 fourth Korean studio album titled I Got a Boy was supported by the title track, which was released as a single and subjected to major attention from Western media following its winning the Video of the Year Award at the inaugural YouTube Music Awards. Their fifth Korean studio album, Lion Heart, was released in 2015.

Girls' Generation has sold over 4.4 million albums and 30 million digital singles as of 2012.^[2] The group's immense popularity in their native country South Korea has earned them numerous accolades, notably titles such as "The Nation's Singers" and "The Nation's Girl Group".^[3] The group is also regarded as the most popular K-pop girl group in Japan alongside Kara,^[4] and is the first non-Japanese girl group to have two number-one albums on the Japanese Oricon Albums Chart.^[5]
