Tiffany’s continual development as a well-rounded and beautiful singer, entertainer, and individual is something that never fails to amaze me, and she really shined in 2012. Known for her fashion and beauty, this year Tiffany was chosen as an official endorser for 12plus and the official muse for Bean Pole while also being featured in “CeCi”, “1st Look”, “Vogue Girl”, “W Korea”, and “High Cut” magazines. One of her greatest skills though, is emceeing, and she is one of the best and most popular MCs in K-Pop. This past year, she was chosen to emcee several concerts, but is best known for her role as a “Show! Music Core” MC alongside Taeyeon and Seohyun. It didn’t stop there as Tiffany’s busy 2012 also included numerous other appearances at separate events, highlighted by her trip with Yoona and Seohyun to London for the “2012 F/W Burberry Prorsum Fashion Show” as honored guests.
The constant for Tiffany this past year was exactly what she loves to do most – singing. My favorite was Tiffany’s “Rolling in the Deep” cover on “Yoo Heeyeol’s Sketchbook”. And of course, SONEs can’t forget the amazing performances from her first musical, “Fame”. She also sang two OST songs this past year, “Because It’s You” and “To The Beautiful You”. Girls’ Generation – TTS was highly successful, and Tiffany admitted her happiness in being able to sing more lines as part of Girls’ Generation’s first ever subunit. However, it’s her kind personality and beautiful heart that make her special. In her August “CeCi” magazine shoot, items from the photoshoot were auctioned for charity. This past year, Tiffany was appointed a Gangnam-gu honorary ambassador, Korean Retinitis Pigmentosa Society ambassador, and Global Hope ambassador. Most importantly, she’s always there for her fans and her members. What I’ll remember most are Girls’ Generation’s appearances on “Late Show with David Letterman” and “Live! with Kelly”. Not only were they pivotal moments in Girls’ Generation’s career, but the fact that Tiffany was so proud with tears of happiness upon learning about the opportunities made them all the more special.
Tiffany has become one of the most talented and popular individuals in K-Pop, while still remaining the same caring and beautiful human being we love, a story very much represented in each of the members of Girls’ Generation. Let’s say good-bye to 2012 and hope for an even more amazing 2013!
