Girl group Girls’ Generation’s JTBC reality show “Soshi Tam Tam” premiered on Tuesday.

The episode displayed the group going on a trip to the seaside in Gangwon with different games and missions given to the members.

The episode only showcased seven of the eight members as Seohyun was not present due to her filming schedule for ongoing KBS drama “Jinxed at First..” She is expected to join the show in later episodes.

“Soshi Tam Tam” comes ahead of the group’s new album, which will be released in August.

The new album marks an end to the group's five-year hiatus. The last album was its sixth full-length album titled "Holiday Night," which was released in August 2017. Three of the eight members then left the group's agency, but Girls' Generation did not disband, telling fans that it intends to continue its activities in the future.

Girls' Generation debuted in 2007 with the track "Into the New World." An iconic girl group in the early 2010s, it produced hits such as "Gee" (2010), "Genie" (2010) and "The Boys" (2011). Its current members are Taeyeon, Sunny, Yoona, Tiffany, Hyoyeon, Yuri, Sooyoung and Seohyun.

“Soshi Tam Tam” airs every Tuesday at 9 p.m. on JTBC. It is also available for streaming on Tving.
