Girls’ Generation is back with another single to dominate the Japanese music industry again this summer. Exactly 1 year and 2 months after the release of their 3rd Japanese single ‘Mr.Taxi’ (released on April 27th, 2011), Girls’ Generation’s Official Japanese Mobile Fansite recently announced that the new Japanese single, “PAPARAZZI”, will be released on June 27th.
Earlier this month during an interview with JoongAng Daily, Tiffany described the new single ‘Paparazzi’ as a fast-beat dance song that has the most difficult choreography in history. The production team of the single includes Grammy Award winner Miles Walker (mixing) and world-renowned Sterling Sound’s Tom Coyne (mastering).
A teaser video for Girls’ Generation’s new Japanese single “PAPARAZZI” aired today on Japanese television. In the video, all nine girls are shown gathering on the stage of a theater which is filled with a large audience. The girls were shown wearing trench coats once the curtain opened to reveal the stage. Later, a short cut of the song was played as concept photos of the members appeared on screen. The full teaser video can be viewed below as well as the Japanese news segment with the audio preview.
