Jam Factory
<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
Jam Factory (Korean: 잼 팩토리 : jaem paegtoli) is a South Korean music publisher which sources song tunes and lyrics for K-Pop, J-Pop and Mandopop artists from songwriters predominantly based in the USA.[1] Writers of the tunes are often songwriters for American companies, such as Brandon Fraley, a well known provider of tunes to South Korean girl and boy bands, who is a songwriter for Sony Music Publishing in Los Angeles. Korean, Japanese and Chinese language lyrics are usually provided by Jam Factory's own lyricists based in Seoul.[2]
As with the song writers of America's Motown era Jam Factory's songwriters and lyricists may support a band's development over many years. For example Girl's Generation songwriter team has included Korean lyricists Jo Yungyeong and Kim Hee-jeong for over 8 years, their lyrics growing with the band.[3]

"나는 나는 바본가봐요 그대 그대 밖에 모르는 바보 그래요 그댈 보는 난"('지'), "그래요 난 널 사랑해 언제나 믿어 꿈도 열정도 다 주고 싶어 난 그대 소원을 이뤄주고 싶은(싶은) 행운의 여신"('소원를 말해봐'), "두근 두근 가슴이 떨려와요 자꾸 자꾸 상상만 하는 걸요 어떻게 하나 콧대 높던 내가 말하고 싶어"('오!') 등 소녀시대의 노래에서 여성 화자는 '사랑에 빠진' 다소 수동적인 여성이었다.
