It was thought that SNSD’s Taeyeon was wearing glasses to represent her character at the press conference for Despicable Me, but this turned out not to be the case.

The girl group leader admitted at the event, held at the Seoul CGV theater in Wangshimni, “I didn’t wear glasses today because my character wore glases, I wore them because I have an infection in my eye.” This is why her right eyelid appears rather red and sore. Due to having no make-up on her right eye, it looks noticeably smaller than her left eye. No more was said about the matter as Taeyeon carried on with the press conference in a mature, professional manner.

Talking about her voice acting for the film, which also features fellow SNSD member and maknae Seohyun, Taeyeon said, “I always loves animations and thought voice acting was interesting, and when I was presented with this good oppurtunity, I was thankful.” She continued, “The most difficult part was getting the timing right with the characters on the screen. If I were an evil villain, I would want to steal the three siblings because they are such amusing characters and it seems like it’d be fun to be around them.”

Her right eye does look rather irritated, wouldn’t you agree? I hope the infection clears up as quickly as possible for SNSD’s leader.
