Sooyoung posted, “Happy Birthday, Fani & Girls’ Generation & SONE [Girls’ Generation’s fan club],” and then humorously shared, “Seohyun has decided to use informal speech with me starting today.” She ended with a warm, “Soonkyu, I miss you.”
Hyoyeon expressed, “Thank you to SONE for always being together with us,” while Yuri shared, “17th-anniversary self-celebration.

Girls' Generation debuted on August 5, 2007, as initially a nine-member group, Jessica departed in September 2014. Renowned as one of South Korea's most influential and successful K-pop acts, they’ve garnered numerous awards and earned the endearing title of The Nation's Girl Group in their home country, South Korea.
The group is known for their signature electropop and bubblegum pop styles, but their music spans various genres, including hip-hop, R&B, and EDM. In 2017, Billboard recognized Girls' Generation as the Top K-pop Girl Group of the Past Decade. They also made history as the first Asian girl group to have five music videos surpassing 100 million views on YouTube, including Gee, I Got a Boy, The Boys, Mr. Taxi, and Oh!
They are credited with redirecting the public’s focus back to female idols after a period when male idol groups dominated the Korean music industry from 2002 to 2007. Their 2009 single Gee was titled Song of the Decade by MelOn and is recognized as one of the first K-pop tracks to gain significant international attention, according to Google Statistics.
