However, the main aspect of the MV that interests fans and netizens is the lyric of the song. There are Korean words inserted into the lyrics and these words have been identified as “진짜 진짜 (really really)” and “좋아 좋아 (like like)” which are mentioned repeatedly in the song.

Just like the Korean version, the girls appeared in colorful costumes, white shirts and blue skinny jeans. The popular “Gee” dance is expected to hit Japan by storm. Fellow label mate, Minho of SHINee, who was featured in the Korean version, made his appearance again in the newly released MV.
Meanwhile, a total of 83,444 copies of SNSD’s Japanese debut single “Genie” were sold to date and the possibility of breaking the 100,000 copies mark is great, thanks to their explosive popularity in Japan.
