Quotes from Kim Tae-yeon

We can at least go backstage where it's cool and get rest, but the fans have to stay and watch in the heat. It's not me mom…it's the fans who have it hard.

When singing, you need performing skills and a bit of imagination. You have to treasure the emotions, and to not deviate from the colour of the song while pouring your heart into it.

You have to smile. Smile like you're really excited.

Actually when I'm depressed or feeling down, I seem to play quiet music and enjoy the time. So I listen to a lot of ballads and I try to enjoy the time with music.

If you really love something, you have to know how to let go.

When I have the opportunity, I want to perform the guitar live for my fans. Please expect that!
