Girls' Generation's Taeyeon couldn't hide her excitement at one question.

Taeyeon appeared as a guest on MBC FM4U's 'Noon's Hope Song, Kim Shin Young' (Jung-hee), which was broadcast on February 15.

On this day, DJ Kim Shin Young was surprised by Taeyeon's new album, saying, "The album came out after 2 years and 3 months. Usually 10 regular songs, but now 13 songs were filled."

Taeyeon said, "Because I am an old person, I have a stubbornness and a baseline. There should be more than 12 songs."

Kim Shin Young said, "I dare say, I listened to the full album very well without any interruptions,"

"I wasn't bored, and I actually captured and sent it. 'Taengoo (Taeyeon) is so good. The whole song was so good.", he said.

Then he played a balance game with Taeyeon. When asked, 'Invite Gang Dong Won to my house vs. Gang Dong Won's invitation,' Taeyeon chose 'Receive an invitation.

Taeyeon said, "It's exciting. I'm nervous, I have to clean, I have to organize, and I'm ashamed. I'm serious now. What should I do?"

Kim Shin Young asked an additional question, "If Gang Dong Won invites you to his house, what will you wear?"

Taeyeon seriously replied, "Wait. What should I wear first? First of all, I will wear comfortable pants and a hoodie because I need to wear comfortable clothes to look around and walk around."
