K-pop group Girls' Generation
will appear on a popular French talk show ahead of its first release of a music
album in Europe early next week, the group's entertainment agency said
Wednesday.
The group will be on the "Le Grand Journal," a talk show
program of the French pay-TV channel "CANAL plus" on Friday (on Paris time),
S.M. Entertainment Co. said.
"Le Grand Journal," which airs at 7 p.m.
from Monday to Friday, is one of France's most popular talk shows, where many of
the world's top stars have appeared as guests.
Girls' Generation will be
the first Korean pop stars to appear on the show, according to the
agency.
The appearance comes ahead of the group's official release slated
for Monday of its special album titled "The Boys" through Polydor, the French
music label under Universal Music Group. It is rare for South Korean singers to
release an album in Europe.
In the show, the group will give a live
performance of the album's title song with the same name, according to the
agency.
It will be the group's third appearance on a popular foreign talk
show in about two weeks following appearances on CBS's late-night talk show
"Late Show with David Letterman" on Jan. 31 and ABC's morning talk show "Live!
With Kelly" on Feb. 1.
The group will also have an interview with
France's terrestrial TV channel "France2" for broadcasting on the channel's main
evening news program on Thursday, according to the agency.
During the
interview, the K-pop sensation will introduce the new album and express thanks
for its devoted European fans, the agency said.
The group arrived in
Paris on Tuesday for local promotion of the new album. (Yonhap) |
