The salient points

• Taeyeon, Jessica, Sunny, Tiffany, Hyoyeon, Yuri, Sooyoung, Yoona and Seohyun. Those are their names.


• They're probably the biggest K-Pop girlgroup, setting a record for the most weeks 'atop' the KBS Music Bank chart with their toe-tappable ditty 'Gee'.


• Other SNSD - for they also go by that moniker - highlights include 'Oh!' and 'Tell Me Your Wish (Genie)'.


• Their last album, 'The Boys' was Korea's biggest selling album in 2011, with the English-language title track produced by Teddy Riley.


• Their brand endorsements include Domino's Pizza, Goobne Chicken and throat lozenge brand 'E-ma Nodoame'. Yum!


• It's a shame that it's all in Korean, really. But there is a big old English-language extravaganza in the offing so 'hold tight'.
