Fake snsd in china?

[drama-ridden.livejournal.com]

Pictures were released earlier today, titled "Chinese SNSD," which were the pictures of Idol Girls, who seemed to have almost identical image as SNSD. As SNSD is a very popular group in Korea, it caught the netizen's attention immediately.

At first, you may think "So what? Nine girl members, big deal." However, the picture below may change your mind.

Some netizens have made comments like, "They first copy the Gee dance, and now they copy the entire group?" while others were saying, "Just consider it as a good thing, because if SNSD wasn't popular in China, why would they even try and copy them?"

Now, time to hear the real deal.

Information has been released that the Idol Girls are a "cover team," who goes around imitating and performing songs of groups that they enjoy and like. They succeeded in fooling Korean netizens by making their styles and outfits almost exactly the same as SNSD's.

This won't cause any trouble to much of the netizens (hopefully, as long as they know the truth), and as long as the Idol Girls remain a "cover team" and not an actual fake SNSD group.

insert joke about fake/pirated things in china

[gunsandsmoke.livejournal.com]

haha awkward. it doesn't really work as far as looks go, mostly because 1) they don't have SM's lavish shiny leg makeup budget or whatever and 2) they look more japanese style than korean (except fake yuri in the middle lol). good try though!

i wonder what they sound like? is there a chinese version of "gee" and "tell me your wish"?

I went to a Chinese opera a few years ago, so I'm imagining these girls singing 'Gee' all slow and methodical. Seriously, it took them 5 minutes to get out a sentence, we left at intermission.

[drama-ridden.livejournal.com]

[vags0up.livejournal.com]

Very poor, cheap imitation. *shakes head*
They even had to have the exact same marine girl concept. Could've at least switched it up a bit.

[vags0up.livejournal.com]

OH wait, they aren't an actual group.
*headdesk* Lol, should finish reading article before saying anything.
