[+ 141, – 21] SNSD does a lot of elegant and girl crush concepts so they have a lot of female fans but when they were in their prime they had crazy male fans. Most men were fans of SNSD and they created the word “Military presidents” be that as it may I think they’re doing really well to have 30% of the fandom as males when they’re in their 10th year

[+ 128, – 11] Male fans = there is one goddess in the group and they go for her

[+ 95, – 18] I remember when I went to SNSD’s concert I saw a grandpa and his grandson watching the concert together…
