Why It Would Be Neat if Girls Generation Delved Into Other Genres of Music

As promised, here is another post with a surprise question at the end (This is a separate post and not a sequel to post 2 from last week). This week, we are discussing Girls' Generation again and this time it is about music genre. Two genres in my knowledge that they have mixed with pop include hip hop and classical. 

Their songs, "You Think" and "Look at Me" are well-recognized K-Pop songs by the group that blend in hip hop elements. While "Promise" and "Star Star Star" are songs of theirs that mix in a classical style of music.

Now the reason that these four songs sound good in my view is because of the talent of the singers and their ability to have a fantastic singing performance along with well-trained choreography. 

"You Think" is a song that is about the empowerment of females, yet it feels accessible to all due to its hip beat (Girls' Generation, "You Think"). "Look at Me" is a song about anticipation during eye contact with someone one may like, but its chorus is highly suitable for dancing along with, thus making it a great addition to anyone's dance music collection (Girls' Generation, "Look at Me").

With "Promise" Girls' Generation was able to prove that they could sing across the genres of K-Pop and classical while harmonizing together well (Girls' Generation, "Promise"). "Star Star Star" showed that the girls had emotions in their songs that they could make anyone who did not even have anything to do with the sad story feel the sadness they were feeling through their voices (Girls' Generation, "Star Star Star"). 

Why do I mention these genres of songs, you ask? The reason why is because I want to propose the idea to fans of what they would think if Girls' Generation sang the songs I listed here, but with pure focus on hip hop and classical (in Korean language) rather than a mixing it with K-Pop? Personally, it would be something I would want to hear, but is it something other fellow fans would enjoy listening to? We should never forget that Girls' Generation has been popular since the late 2000s and is still popular today. Through your participation, let's help keep their popularity alive! Let me know by leaving a comment or a thumbs up if it would be a good idea or thumbs down if a bad idea. Additionally, what are other genres of music do you imagine Girls' Generation would be good at singing fully in Korean?
