 Caps from Press Conference

Here is a complete translation of what Sooyoung said on the Kouhaku appearance interview:

When we heard Kouhaku is approaching its 62nd year this year, we were really surprised.
With such a long history and appearing for the first time, we are all really happy and honored to be invited.
Because BoA and Tohoshinki appeared on Kouhaku before, we will also do our best to put on a great performance like our sempai (sunbae) before us. Cr : Fen (@Ninjafen)@twitter
