SNSD replaces the plane on Cover

After receiving much flack for putting a Japanese World War 2 plane on the front cover of Girls' Generation / SNSD's new album and consequently delaying the album release because of this, the new image of the front cover has been released.

The cover is basically the same except the Zero-sen fighter was replaced with an image of Korea's T-50 modern fighter. You'll also notice an emblem on Taeyeon is removed and the plane that's next to the "S" in "Girls" is flipped around, different wings on Yoona's hat, and some white space behind Sunny is removed.

Here's the images, credit to sosiz:

This just goes to show that this picture is photoshopped, which means that these girls are photoshopped too. -__________-

Some of you guys are questioning the necessity of the plane to the Marines concept . IMHO, I think the plane is very necessary . Let me explain . According to Wiki, the US Marine Corp has it’s own Air Wing which provides close air SUPPORT to the Marines during an amphibious assault along a shoreline . Similarly, fans provide financial and moral SUPPORT to SNSD . So the plane symbolizes/represents the fans, ie both providing SUPPORT . Bear in mind that it is the Marines/SNSD who do all the hard work . See #92…..................That reminds me, I need to go to work now, in order to provide SUPPORT to my many mistresses = joking .

melibie's avatar

pach-k.pop's avatar

this is kind of like our lesson in effective advertising and marketing… culture can really make or break a product! im glad sm entertainment changed it - =)

 
HoshikoBaby's avatar

ill like spot the difference game…ahaha that was nice they change it to stop the commotion

 
no avatar

you don’t have to put on it. that’s it.
It’s really useless!

 
Gaercoal's avatar

Everybody else forgot that Yuri also has the same eagle as Yoona’s and that was also changed. People probably don’t know this but Koreans are very patriotic and proud to be Koreans because of all the invasions and take overs over the last century, they are still independent from any dictatorial leaders.

jessica’s wing things on her hat face upwards in the new pic too ~ 8D

 
waterprincess012's avatar

oh wow, it really doesn’t matter..

 
senseofspark's avatar

The changes are not bad. I wouldn’t notice them…

 
omgareusrs's avatar

Yoona’s always the front girl… I think they should put Taeyeon for once since she’s the leader.

 
azn_funkmaster's avatar

at last they did something smart

 
soyasauce's avatar

Looks better =]

It’s ridiculous that the release date was pushed back because of something like this.

Also, the GIF doesn’t work anymore because the bandwidth was exceeded.

 
no avatar

Why didn’t they use a korean plane in the first place

 
Kp_poine's avatar

I really liked the old cover.. :/
Oh well.. atleast they acted on it and changed it.

 
MaVivienne's avatar

xsamiieee's avatar

i shouldve just left the plane out. but whatever. it still looks nice.

its good that they replaced the cover to prevent any controversies that might have occurred if the original print had released.

 
crazykpop's avatar

teeheex33's avatar
