The Asian act was going against giant personalities like Justin Bieber, One Direction, and Lady Gaga.

During an interview with Billboard, Tiffany a member of the K-pop shared her excitement over their win, "It was huge competition. This was totally unexpected and exciting and extremely humbling at the same time. Just to be a part of that big group of huge artists was a big treat."

"Girls' Generation" is set to star in their own reality TV show called "Channel Girls' Generation". It will feature the other side of the eight young girls where fans can expect to get to know them even better, Soompi reported.
