K-Pop's Platinum selling superstars Girls' Generation returned on 1st January with their new album  ‘I Got A Boy’ (SM Entertainment / Universal Music).

The single ‘I Got A Boy’ sold over 320,000 units in its first week, and received rave reviews in the LA Times and other publications. According to Billboard 'I Got  Boy' is "one of the most-forward thinking lead pop singles heard in any country… Girls' Generation just set the bar truly high for pop in 2013".

The video for ‘I Got  A Boy’ reached 20 million views on YouTube within 5 days, and to date has notched up 35 million views.

Trinity Music (Sebastian Lundberg, Fredrik Häggstam and Johan Gustafson) wrote and co-produced another track  (‘Look at Me’) from the K-Pop stars' album - as well as writing and co-producing Girls' Generation's Japanese smash hit single ‘Flower Power’, taken from their ‘Girls In Peace’ album.
