Hyoyeon thanks all members for supporting her on Dancing With the Stars 2
Our Dancing Machine Hyoyeon thanked her all the members of GG for the support she has received from the girls on Dancing With the Stars 2.
The latest episode of Dancing With the Stars 2 featured four remaining teams as they embark on their ninth dance challenge. Hyoyeon successfully showcased her elegant quick step performance, showing much professionalism and charisma. She then proceeded to flawlessly execute her jive performance, being completely in-sync with her dance partner Kim Hyung Suk.
Upon the duo’s performance, comments praising the performance were ubiquitous. Judge Song Seunghwan stated “The two of you really nailed the jive performance, it really suits you,” later commenting that he was “jealous of Kim Hyung Suk” for being able to dance with Hyoyeon. One critique Kim Joo-won even compared Hyoyeon to Britney Spears.
“I really want to make the cut for the Top 4,” said Hyoyeon ambitiously and she continued, “I want to thank my fellow Girls’ Generation members. They’ve been sending me supportive text messages all day long to boost my confidence for this stage.”
Meanwhile, the episode concluded with Cho Yeojin and Park Jiwoo taking the top spot once again.

Sunny to Leave ‘Invincible Youth 2′
An SM Entertainment representative has revealed, “Sunny is leaving KBS 2TV’s ‘Invincible Youth 2′.”
Sunny already filmed her final episode last month, which will air on July 7th, ending Sunny’s eight months on “Invincible Youth 2″.
Sunny’s representative explained, “Originally Sunny was also in season one, so because of that, even before season two started, discussion with the production crew was already made for her to leave naturally when the program became stable.” The representative added that with “new MC Lee Youngja entering the show and the reorganization, it seemed like the right time to take the opportunity and leave the show now.” Furthermore, the representative stated about Sunny’s future schedules, ”For the time being, it is planned she will only do Girls’ Generation activities. No individual schedule has been decided yet.”
The PD for “Invincible Youth 2″ said about Sunny leaving, “Because of Sunny’s musical or her Japan activites and her individual schedule, it was a situation where she was very tired and would arrive like this.” He added, “For her other schedules, she is leaving ‘Invincible Youth 2′.” He also said, “Hyoyeon will still be staying. There will be no new different members coming in. It will stick with G5, and Lee Youngja will be coming in as an MC.”
For Sunny’s final episode, even though there wasn’t any special event, the members who knew it was her last broadcast cried along with Sunny. Since October 2009, Sunny has received love by showing a down to earth and firm image in her first broadcast of “Invincible Youth” season one, as well as into season two.
