Super Junior, who are sweeping the charts with their 4th album “Beauty”, usually consists of 13 members. However lately 10 have been appearing on stage. The reason lies in the good and bad times they experienced last year. Last year their 3rd album “Sorry Sorry” sold over 250,000 copies, becoming a “Mega Hit”, however with Kangin and other members withdrawing from activities, they unintentionally fell into a slump.
Super Junior came out to talk to the press at a press conference in Apgujeongdong in Seoul on the 20th, excluding Choi Siwon, who was not well due to the rigours of filming his drama “Oh! My Lady”. However they couldn’t be “sorry sorry” about the reaction to their album. In only ten days since the release of their album, they had already exceeded 200,000 sales, and reached 1st place by a landslide on many music charts.
▲ Super Junior, who are gaining popularity with their 4th album title song “Beauty”
Leeteuk: “This song and “Sorry Sorry” have a similar story. We too felt that it was similar at first. We think that songs with a combination of dance and electronica qualities might become associated with Super Junior. It’s kind of like ‘SJ(Super Junior) Funky’.”
In the 4th album, there are also the first solo songs for Super Junior members. Ryeowook’s emotional voice and a harmonious piano accompaniment came together for “Spring Day”. At first glance it seems like a song about missing an ex-lover, but in reality it’s a song filled with the emotions of the songwriter whose grandmother passed away. There is also Yesung and Kyuhyun’s first duet, a mournful ballad entitled “Someone Like Me”.
Their 1st and 2nd albums were overshadowed by their Dong Bang Shin Ki sunbaes, however the fever over their 3rd album turned them into a “Red Hot Idol Group”.
Heechul: “In our trainee days, we saw that our sunbaes would usually retire after they released their 4th albums. These days, it seems like in the eyes of the public it’s the same. However now because we’re appearing on stages in not only Korea but all of Asia, we’ve extended our range.”
Leeteuk and Heechul, who as the eldests of the group will be turning 28 in Korean years this year, said “In order to look younger we died our hair blonde.” “We aren’t planning to forget what we were like at the beginning. At first we wanted to shed the image of “idols” but nowadays we want don’t want to throw away that title. If we can carry that honour, then we’ll want to continue going with that image.”*
*It is unclear which of them is saying this.

Donghae “SuJu is Number 1. Hangeng, Kangin, Kibum I love you”
Clinching the number 1 spot just one week after their comeback, Super Junior’s member Donghae’s love towards the three members who are unable to attend activities has caught people’s attention.
After “Beauty” from the fourth album won the first place on the 21st’s KBS Music Bank, Donghae expressed his bliss through his words and photo upload on his twitter. The photo upload showed Donghae along with members Leeteuk and ShinDong happily kissing the trophy.
Donghae’s comment which directly mentioned the names of the three members who were unable to perform with them, Chinese member Hangeng who is going through contract termination and Kangin who is in the middle of reflecting over his actions, was what which specially caught people’s attention.
Donghae said, “SuJu won 1st place. Hangeng, Kangin, Kibum I love you. From now onwards, we’ll work hard together.” Donghae also mentioned “No matter what others say, we’ll go by our own path.”
Besides that, Super Junior is a 13 member group, but only 10 of the members were involved in the making of the fourth album, the number of members attending activities is also 10. Kangin plans to join the army, Kibum is said to be placing his focus on acting and Hangeng is currently going through a lawsuit against SME. Nonetheless, the fact that these three members are still part of Super Junior has not changed.

August 2009, Super Junior arrived in Hong Kong to shot their 3rd photobook “Boys in City Season 3 in Hong Kong”. This is the 3rd time, after Malaysia’s Kuala Lumpur and Japan’s Tokyo, that Super Junior is shooting a photobook with city-like background. April 2010, after 8 months, this photobook is finally released.
Introduction of the photobook.
This time’s photobook made a record in Super Junior’s photobook history, with the most number of pages, and at the same time has
25000 copies released. The difference between this photobook and the previous 2 are that besides being sold in Korea, it is going to be sold in Taiwan with the DVD being chinese subbed. “Boys in City Season 3 in Hong Kong” has 438 pages altogether, and is divided into 8 categories which are: “Started on our Voyage”, “Play the Party”, “Go For a Ride”, “The town at Night 01”, “Avenue of Stars 01”, “The town at Night 02”, “Avenue of Stars 02” and “About the Beach”. Because of the tight schedules of the members, the different parts of the photobook is shot separately. In “Go For a Ride” and “The town at Night 01”, there are only Heechul, Kangin, Sungmin and Kibum. Leeteuk, Hangeng, Yesung, Yesung, Shindong, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Siwon, Ryeowook and Kyuhyun took the boat to Macau on 25 August and shot some photos there. Although Hong Kong and Macau are close to each other, but the background of the 2 cities are totally different, so there are different styles displayed.
This photobook was actually planned to release during Winter, but due to some reasons it was postponed until 15th April. Regarding this photobook that was long anticipated, the members expressed that, “Hopefully everyone will like me with the different styles”.
Will make their comeback soon.
Spring 2009, Super Junior released their 3rd album “Sorry Sorry”. After that, “Sorry Sorry” became very popular instantly, creating a new
wave all around Asia. From July 2009, they have also commenced on their “Super Show 2” with Super Junior’s own unique style. As 2010 arrives, Super Junior already said that they will make their comeback in Spring, around May.
However, from 2009 to 2010, Super Junior’s road was rocky. Firstly, Kibum did not participate in the 3rd album, and so the whole promotion stages of the 3rd album only had 12 people. Afterwhich from September to October, Kangin also did not participate in group activities due to some assault case. In December, Hangeng filed a lawsuit again SM Entertainment, asking to leave the company. After that he did not take part in any of Super Junior’s activites. After all these, people have been guessing how many people would be present for the 4th album? There are 10* people who are participating.
In April, Super Junior filmed their new album’s MV, and with the sexy styles in the MV, Leeteuk said, “Super Junior will present a
totally different style in 4th album”. Usually, the members would also practice hard for their new album, and go to the gym to train too. The Kpop industry will present a new Super Junior to all in May.

Sungmin
If you want to find somebody “cute” in Super Junior, that person you’re finding for is Sungmin. It is not only because of Sungmin’s “loose”** presentation, but also because of his friendly personality. Although he frequently does ageyo to his hyungs on camera, he actually does not like to talk much, and he does not do ageyo so much in real life. Instead, he becomes more manly, wanting to take care of others constantly. When Super Junior received the award for MKMF, seeing the already crying (because they were touched) members, Sungmin always stood beside everyone, comforting them. Actually, no matter what problems SJ meets, Sungmin is the most calm. He will always stay by his hyungs/ dongsaengs side quietly, trying to console them. He does not reveal his weak side, and keeps it all to himself. When people are sad, the generous Sungmin would comfort them by smiling; when he’s sad and feels like crying, he’ll use a smile to hide his feelings. It may be because of these various hardships he went through that made Sungmin so strong-willed, becoming someone who is so special.
*The magazine made a mistake, it stated 11 members are participating. And also, I’m not too sure if Hangeng asked to leave the
company. (The magazine stated so.) If that isn’t right, plz PM me, I’ll edit. (-:
** It meant something like his unique and many ways in presenting himself cutely.
