While Girls’ Generation (SNSD) was on hiatus for much of 2012, member Yoona kept herself busy, playing Jang Keun Suk’s love interest in Love Rain.

The two made for a pretty hallyu couple, onscreen, at least, and just about every move Yoona made in the drama became a hot topic.

Yoona’ life wasn’t much different off screen, where she TEXTdrew crowds wherever she went and made top stars like Lee Seung Gi blush.

From being hailed the Nation’s First Love to reports claiming that the SNSD member was one of the top female idol earners, Yoona was nothing less than the best in 2012.
