There are 10 general types of SoShi Fans. If you don’t know what SoShi is, then you’re probably not one of these 10 yet. This is just based on the fans of each girl, that I’ve met and have had the pleasure to meet. (I believe as fans, we should know all about the positives of the girls, as well as their flaws, we can only grow stronger with them). Sometimes, I think that the girls and their personalities really do attract a certain group of fans. Also most fans, once again, I’m saying most start off as a Fany fan, because of how approachable she seems.

The first types are the Tiffany Fans. They are extremely possessive of this girl (they all claim that Tiffany is theirs, but Tiffany can’t possibly have that many soul mates). Probably the craziest group of fans you will ever meet. They are the ones that find all of Tiffany’s mistakes because they consider her mistakes and flaws just part of her personality and have grown to accept it. These fans are extremely dedicated to Fany, and their sole purpose is to convert other fans into Tiffany fans by spamming them with her cuteness. Pink is perhaps now their favorite color. They love it when she sings, and even more so when she sings in English. “Hello, I’m SNSD’s brighter than MUSHROOMS, Fany Fany Tiffany”, will forever be a memorable quote for them.

The second types are listed under as Yoona fans. The honestly do run Soshified and just basically everything SNSD related, but they do it quietly. They’re silently deadly, ready to pounce on anyone that messes with Yoona or brings down SNSD. They seem to be slow when it comes to SNSD matters, but when it comes to Yoona; they know her schedule even before she knows it. The thing about Yoona fans is that their tolerance level is low; they really dislike it when fans say the reason why they like Yoona or SNSD is because of how pretty they are. They also have grown to understand that Yoona isn’t that strong of a singer, but their support her acting and CF projects. They might not talk much, but when they do, it’s probably something Yoona-related. “1,2,3, Go” is one of their favorite expressions of Yoona.

Taeyeon’s fans are third in line. They are much like umma, in that they show support mildly for all 9 of the girls. They are extremely confused on whether or not they support Taengsic or TaeNy, but at the end of the day, they want Taeyeon to grow old, dorky, and find the right guy, even if it’s fun seeing her choose between JeTi. Her fans are quite peculiar, much like her, you don’t know what to expect from them. Sometimes, they might Photoshop weird images of her, or start random butt threads, and they might seem like anti-Taeyeon fans, most of the time, but that’s just the kind of fans she has, they enjoy the comedy in the relationship. They also listen to Chin Chin radio, religiously and and believe that Taeyeon’s voice makes the world go around. They’ve very laid back and chill, easy to get along with folks. “Amajing”, is now the new cool way to say amazing wrong for them, as well as “I RUB YOU, SNSD”.

4th in line are the fans of our lovable Maknae, Seohyun. They are very logical and well-mannered people. These fans are probably the sweetest of the bunch. Most of her fans seem to be guy fans, from what I can see, and many unnie fans. They all seem to support how studious she is, and talented and just overall the idea of taking care of the youngest. They probably know more about Seohyun than anyone else does, but hardly show it, just because they would rather keep her, to themselves. They’re not being selfish, just exclusive. Seohyun fans want her to keep her innocence forever and ever and just can’t wait to see what happens when Seohyun’s potential finally peaks. Her “I love you” confession to Johnny Depp is a favorites in their videos.

Jessica’s fans are the 5th type. Probably the most loyal, out of the nine girls, Sica fans, for the most part, have been following her since her debut. They don’t ever feel the need to jump ships, and I don’t blame them. Some have admitted to actually becoming fans of her after they heard about the rumors and realized how stupid they were. While most of the fans like the fact that Sica is getting more like Ddilsica lately, her true fans, deep down miss her “Ice Princess” ways. They are the type of fans that don’t laugh when the other eight girls are talking, but laugh like crazy, when Sica says something that seems extremely out of sense. You can’t be a Sica fan, unless you use “GorJess” frequently. They find her attitude and real ways very interesting and intriguing.

The 6th type of fan happens to be the Sunny Fan. They are usually like Taeyeon fans for the most part, except have a certain dorky edge to them. They really do love Sunny, and you can tell, they probably download ever bora of Chunji radio, even though they have no idea what the heck they’re saying, cause they’re not Korean, they still know that since Sunny doesn’t get much exposure, they’re number one resource is Chunji. “Bery Good, Yo” happens to be their new greeting and answer to everything. These fans have a very nice sense of humor, sometimes, they just find everything funny. Sunny is the sunshine in their lives. However, I must say, that I have found Sunny's group of fans to vary the most when it comes to age, and just overall personality, no one can escape her aegyo-ness, no matter how young or how old. Her fanbase is extremely diverse.

Dancers or people with no rhythm really enjoy Hyoyeon and are listed as the 7th type of fan. They can come from either end of the spectrum because both types admire Hyoyeon’s dancing techniques, and how sexy she looks on stage. However, no matter how she rocks that stage, her uniqueness and cute expressions off stage really captivate them. No matter, what others think, they will support Hyoyeon no matter what. Sometimes, honestly, they might be outnumbered, but they are optimistic about future opportunities for Hyoyeon. They want her wish of “conquering Asia in 2008” to come true.

Sure they might eat a lot, but as fans of Sooyoung, the 8th type, learned from the best that food does get you far in life. They were probably crying when Sooyoung announced her last broadcast on Chunji. They’ve probably seen every episode of UM, just for Sooyoung and her crazy antics. These Sooyoung fans are extremely bias even if they’re commenting on another girls’ thread, you can tell by their banner and avatar that Sooyoung was the only one they had in mind. They are really independent, much like Sooyoung. Instead of conforming to just one pairing for her, they believe that since Sooyoung is the “pimp” of the group, all the pairings with Sooyoung are win. They are willing to share her. They like the fact that Sooyoung is loud and upbeat, it really brightens their day. Quotes like "You asked us about our teamwork, but really there is no secret. We just live like sisters." By Sooyoung really show them another side of her, and they really love sweet things like them.

The 9th type of fan is one that I am oh-too-familiar with. Yuri fans are not afraid to tell you about how perfect Yuri is. In fact, there really isn’t much of a purpose for Yuri fans, they just admire Yuri, in every single way. They really believe the girl can do no wrong, and when she does do something wrong, they just think it’s hilarious. Even when Yuri jokes or screws the other girls over, these fans are laughing most of the time, and think that Yuri is the perfect genius when it comes to joking around. They know the “Oh Duri” imitation and know Yuri’s voice from a mile a way. They have Yuri sense, and they have the ability to forcefully make any conversation about Yuri. They love Yuri’s random English spurts of “Oh Honey” or “Today is Monday”, and believe that the language barrier with Yuri is only temporary, and that one day she will be a prodigy. These fans are hardcore Yuri fans, and will stalk every SNSD video and just monitor what Yuri does. Oh and all of them acknowledge Yusica, even if it’s not their favorite pairing. Even only a handful support Yuri, as their number one, most of SNSD fans in general, can’t help but have her in their top 3. Tiffany’s fans might be the most dangerous, but Yuri’s fans are the scariest when it comes to fangirling/fanboying.

Finally the number 10 type of fan is the self-proclaimed fan of all 9 girls. These fans are perhaps the most dangerous, cause they can easily put you on some type of tangent where you spazz for hours and hours about all 9 of the members. They truly believe in the power of 9, and support all 9 girls. These fans work hard, on understanding, and getting to know a bit of all nine girls. They are open about the fact that they don’t have one favorite, they love all 9 girls, and who could blame them. They know a diverse amount of information about all 9, and aren’t too shy to prove their SNSD knowledge. Nothing beats “Right now, It’s SNSD” for them.

However, in general, from what I have observed as a SNSD fan over the past few months, SNSD has one of the most respectful and united fan bases out there for any artist. Even though everyone has their side favorites, they for the most part, understand that even though there are 9 girls, there is only one generation, and we should support all of SNSD’s ventures. Soshified fans, have a very special emotional attachment to the girls, they have seen the girls struggle with rumors and watch them get to where they are today. They are also proud that SNSD is what it is today. They love the SoShi bond and hopes that one day SNSD will be a legend, and they believe that SNSD will change the era of KPOP as we know it. Real fans understand that SNSD is about the power of nine, and that even if our girls venture on SOLO projects, they will always be So Nyuhs, and that it kills them inside, just as much as it kills us to not have the other 8 girls with them.
