* When Sunny tried to fight back against Taeyeon's attempted kidnapper. (A little perspective: Sunny's about 5'1 and 43kg, but she still gave it her all. Damn.)
* Their performance of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1f2DgZiTek Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal" and Super Junior's "Sorry Sorry"]]. They even did the isolation for "Sorry Sorry" and their "Smooth Criminal" bit has to be seen to be believed.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHe_IRMDrSE This]] video of them doing "Genie" with no backing music. Granted, some members are a bit wobbly and off key, but they completely own the song!
* Jessica recently passed out from exhaustion during one the performances of her musical. Did she lie down and rest? Nope, she came out and apologized (she had to be ''carried out'', but she refused to let everyone down).
** Note: This might not have happened - there's a few [[http://ggcenterko.blogspot.ca/2013/01/jessica-fainted-during-musical-legally.html conflicting reports]].
* They recently did a [[http://24.media.tumblr.com/0a227e75316a65e50ad7a598f35d7f4e/tumblr_monrq2Jada1ssbekho3_r1_500.gif Michael]] [[http://25.media.tumblr.com/2c33571cca217759236cfc8a79476cec/tumblr_monrq2Jada1ssbekho4_r1_500.gif Jackson]] [[http://25.media.tumblr.com/1fa7131280133c4ed999d1ab9326a644/tumblr_monrq2Jada1ssbekho1_r2_500.gif tribute]].
* Considering how much flack Hyoyeon gets for being the alleged "ugly member" of the group, both fans and anti-fans agree that '''Hyoyeon can''' (and probably has) '''dance circles around the other girls''' and is one of the best dancers in SM Entertainment. Hell, she was even placed in a unit made up of the ultimate best dancers in SM Entertainment (other members included Super Junior's Eunhyuk, Henry Lau, Shinee's Taemin, Music/{{EXO}}-K's Kai, and Music/{{EXO}}-M's Luhan).
** Her participation to "Hit the Stage" showed that she could easily pull off other styles of dance, culminating in a win in episode 9.
** Her solo career has done a lot better than the majority of people expected it to. "Dessert" and the English version of "Sober" have both racked up over 50 million views on [=YouTube=], making her the second most successful solo artist of the group. Not bad for someone who used to be considered "useless, ugly and can't sing or dance"!
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7XgkonOmlU Winning their first Music Bank award]] for a performance of "Kissing You" that was done after the group was involved in a car accident that forced them to ''run to Music Bank on foot'' to make it to their performance in time.
* You'd think that Taeyeon doing a heavy metal song would be drastically unheard of, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-xsUM-T0Z0 but then she made "Devil's Cry".]] It's every bit as awesome as it sounds, [[SugarWiki/BetterThanItSounds and then some.]]
* '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n06qdV6jeUE Dream]]''' '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n06qdV6jeUE Concert 2013.]]''' There's a reason why KBS had to edit the performances, the whole stadium was just that loud.
* Seohyun stood her ground when SM wanted to fill her first solo mini-album with songs written by other artists. They remained adamant on the title track, but every other song is penned by her.
* Taeyeon spent up to six hours on each song while she was recording "My Voice", her first full album. She had to be given an IV drip because she was pushing herself too much, but she kept going nonetheless.
** From that very same album, the "No thanks baby" part in "I'm OK". What makes it awesome is that, during her solo concert, Taeyeon changed it to either "Bullshit baby" or [[PrecisionFStrike "Fuck you baby"]] complete with middle finger raise. She's also used performances of the song to call out SM Entertainment for various things (like screwing up her album release).
* ''Lil' Touch'' by the SNSD_Oh!GG sub-unit becoming the fastest SM mv to reach 10 million views, topping both domestic and international charts, and overall proving that, yes, SNSD are total legends.
* Three words: Taeyeon. "Fine". ''[[https://twitter.com/like_a_fool_/status/1053980725295247360 Acapella]]''.
* Just the overall cultural impact their debut song, "Into the New World" has achieved. Not only has it become a staple song at protests, but it's also become a mandatory song for girl group trainees to perform during their evaluations.
* Yoona being the Trope Codifier for the ''[[SpotlightStealingSquad center]]'' role not just among girl groups, but for K-pop as a genre. While the meaning of the role changed over time, becoming synonymous with the member of a group who ends up stealing all the spotlight by either being given flashier outfits, being the visual, or being pushed to the front, Yoona always managed to blend in flawlessly and her presence alone was enough to attract the general public's attention, to the point where her name became an instant link to the Girls' Generation brand. [[https://twitter.com/mystarmyangel/status/1562280851140153346?t=2rSAADKQ3sUJLGMCln1NCQ&s=19 People from all fandoms]] agree that she basically invented the role, to the point that fifteen years after debut she still is regarded as the best there is.
