Soshi Site 9: Tiffany Endorses 12plus and Celebrates Her Birthday in Thailand

Recently, Tiffany became a new endorser for a Thailand-based facial product company called “12plus”. As part of the endorsement deal, Tiffany flew to Thailand with Super Junior’s Siwon, who has been a model for 12plus for several years already, to shoot a CF for 12plus’s “Double Aura Lucent BB powder”.

Filming for the 12plus CF occurred during Tiffany’s birthday, and both Tiffany and Siwon posted messages online to celebrate. Tiffany wrote, “Today is really my day~~~!!! ^^*” on Girls’ Generation’s official website and uploaded two photos to go along with the exclamation. One picture was of herself, Sooyoung, Yoona, and Seohyun at a photoshoot for “High Cut” magazine, and the other photo was of her with Siwon, which the Super Junior member later tweeted with the message, “Happy birthday tiffany!”

Although the CF hasn’t been released yet, 12plus released some promotional pictures on its Facebook page. This teaser image shows Tiffany using one of the company’s products.

Other images of Tiffany at the set of the CF filming were also taken by fans and uploaded onto the Internet. They show Tiffany in a stunning white dress, greeting fans during and after the filming with friendly waves and her signature smile. She even asked to take a photo with the fans, joining the crowd for a quick picture.

Of course, the filming wouldn’t be complete without celebrating Tiffany’s birthday. People gathered on the set and placed a cake with candles for Tiffany. She blew out the candles as cameras continued to flash, intent on capturing this very special and precious moment. Tiffany also received a bouquet of red roses that emphasized her beauty, and she was kind enough to give a hug to one lucky fan that was beside her while she blew the candles out on her birthday cake.

On August 2nd, Tiffany and Siwon attended a fanmeet at “MIRACLE DAY 2012 Double Aura Show”. Tiffany was greeted with a miniature “pink ocean” of neon letters spelling her name and signs stating “SONE is here”. They also held a short interview at the fanmeet with Pingbook, an entertainment company. The two discussed Thailand, the CF filming, and fashion, among other subjects. The two were also featured on the CH3 MorningNews show in Thailand, which can be viewed in the video below:

It was a special trip for Tiffany in Thailand. Not only could she further herself and Girls’ Generation in endorsing a new product, but she also felt the love of fans that ensured she would have a truly memorable birthday.

Check out the full interview below!

How does it feel like coming back to Thailand again?

Siwon: Thailand has become my second home. I feel very welcome and touched every time I vist this country. This time round is very special because Tiffany came with me to be presenters of 12 Plus Double Aura Lucent BB powder. I want everyone to support us.

Tiffany: This is a very special trip. Usually, SNSD would be here to do concerts but this time I came here as a presenter of 12 Plus. I received the opportunity to be a presenter with Siwon, who have endorsed 12 Plus for 5 years. It's an honor to be able to work here. It had been a lot of fun and I want to become a presenter of 12 Plus for a long time.

Is this the first you guys have done work together?

Siwon: Usually we work together as a group like; Super Junior and SNSD, but this is our first time working together individually.

Since Siwon have been a presenter for 5 years, is there any tips or advice he gave you?

Tiffany: He gave me a lot of advices, and he also taught me Thai. I feel really excited because this is the first time I am a presenter. Since Siwon has been a presenter for a long time, at the CF shooting site, Siwon helped me out a lot. He's a real gentleman.

Is the filming fun? We heard that it's really romantic.

Siwon: We are different people entirely when the camera's rolling. (laughs).

Tiffany: It's a very fun and enjoyable. The staff at the site are very relaxed. We shot the scenes near the riverside and it was quite hot, but fans still came to support us from morning until in the evening. We felt really grateful and the staff are really nice to us. I'm really touched by the staff too.

As a presenter of 12 Plus Double Aura Lucent BB Powder, please tell us the reason of why we should use the product.

Siwon: You have to wait for the release of the advertisement to see the reason. It's really romantic. Everyone will think that it's really cute. The past CFs had been very romantic but this time, this one is the most romantic. If you've watched every CF you would really want a boyfriend/lover, you might even find a guy who is as handsome as me. (smiles).

Tiffany: I think so too. If Thai girls use this powder, Siwon would fall for your charms. I want everyone to use this powder a lot. I tried it and it's very good, I used it since the first day. Please use the powder a lot!

There's a strong Hallyu wave here and as a fashionista, any tips for Thai girls?

Tiffany: Eat a lot. Rest a lot. Every time you put on make up don't forget to put on 12 Plus Double Aura Lucent BB Powder. It's really good and don't stress yourself out, sleep a lot and you will certainly have skin like me.

Both of you have frequently visited Thailand, what do you think is its charm?

Tiffany: Usually I come here to meet fans at the concert. Every time I meet Thai fans I feel very touched, no matter how many times, fans will come and give us support. Even if the weather is scorching hot, the fan's support is even hotter than the weather. At the shoot, fans even went out of there way to make a project for me. It was really romantic, it made the atmosphere all around romantic too.

Siwon: I had scenes with birds. I am very charmed by the birds. Birds constantly looked at us (laughs) no words are need to be exchange between the birds and me. We seemed to really know each other. (smiles)

So you came to Thailand, do you have any Thai phrases to impress the fans?

Siwon: I have only short phrases... "Darlings, how are you? I miss yo soo much I almost died" (laughs). There's also another phrase. "Please quiet down." (laughs).

Tiffany: I really want to speak Thai but Siwon keep saying it first! (laughs). Next time when I visit Thailand I will speak Thai before Siwon!

Siwon: Tiffany, you don't even have to speak Thai, just use your eye smile and everyone will faint. If I use eye smile people would look at me strangely and say "is there something wrong with you?" (laugh)

Tiffany: "Do you guys want to go on a tuktuk* ride with me?" Next time I will say something sweeter!

Did you guys prepare anything special for Miracle Day?

Siwon: I don't want to say anything as of now since the event is starting soon. I'm afraid it won't be fun if I tell everyone before the event. I want everyone to see it at the event, maybe I might feel like doing something VERY special on the stage... don't forget to come see!

Tiffany: I probably won't do anything.... (laughs).

As a presenter of 12 Plus Double Aura Lucent BB Powder, do you have anything for Thai fans?

Siwon: Time has passed by really fast for me as a presenter for 5 years. This is my 13th CF, if I don't have the support from my fans I won't be able be here this today. I want to really thank my fans. When I was informed that fans were waiting for Tiffany, she has finished filming, I want everyone to wait for 12 Plus Double Aura Lucent BB powder.

Tiffany: Even though it's Siwon's 13th CF but this is my first (laughs). I feel that everyone is constantly supporting me, I'm really touched. I want to stay here longer! Please carry on supporting our activities and love 12 Plus a lot! Joob Joob!
