“Do you want to get a taste of this song?”

Super Junior KyuHyun, with drama “Pasta” OST

It’s interview to be glad of. Super Junior’s maknae of 13 members, KyuHyun.

The fans who missed him can now get time to listen to his voice more. As he can sing with his sweet voice, he makes people anticipate for future as he waits for his turn to shine to show off his talent.

The year of 2010, he came to us with MBC drama “Pasta” OST “Listen..To You”. Melted into the delicious drama “Pasta”, Super Junior KyuHyun’s attracting song pulls hungry ears to the table.

BUGS: Hello. I think Bugs family will be glad to hear from you. Please introduce yourself first.

KYUHYUN: Hello, I’m Super Junior’s KyuHyun. Bugs was one of my favourites since high school, so I’m really thankful that I can introduce myself through Bugs.

BUGS: At the end of last year, Super Junior won the DaeSang at GolenDisk. I know it’s late, but congratulations. How did you feel?

KYUHYUN: That was the first time we’ve won DaeSang at Golden Disk. Since GD was a award with history and so many of wonderful sunbae singers have won awards from there. It just felt like it was all a dream. I couldn’t sleep that night.

BUGS: What did the members talk about after getting the award?

KYUHYUN: We said “Yes~ We’re now DaeSang singers!” and were really happy. (smiles) We also made our mind to do better in the future.

BUGS: Because there is a lot of members in Super Junior, you probably missed the speech after. Do you have something you wanted to say?

KYUHYUN: Since I’m the maknae of Super Junior, I knew I wouldn’t be able to say anything after the award, so I didn’t really prepare any speech… I won’t say anything. (smiles) Our leader LeeTeuk hyung said everything there was to say. In hopes of being able to have the chance to say the DaeSang speech, I’ll save it for now.

BUGS: After finishing off 2009, you came back to fans with drama “Pasta” OST “Listen.. To You”. Do you watch “Pasta” by any chance?

KYUHYUN: Yes, I watch the drama. Edward Kyun (Lee SunKyun). It was impressive.

BUGS: The drama is about cooking. Are you good at cooking KyuHyun?

KYUHYUN: Between our members, I’m well known as “Han River Ramen.” It’s because when I first came to live at the SJ dorm, I had to make the ramen since I’m the maknae, but I had some trouble determining the amount of water. After that, members don’t ask me to cook ramen. There’s another story. I wanted some ham, so I asked RyeoWook who is a good cook, for way to cook ham. He told me to cook it with oil, and I thought he meant sesame oil. And of course, after that, the members don’t ask me to cook. (smiles) + But above all, what is the food you’re most good at? I make good BiBimMyun. Haha. (BiBimMyun~spicy noodle with assorted vegetables)

BUGS: Then now I’ll ask you some questions about music. Please tell us how you got to sing “Pasta” OST “Listen..To You”

KYUHYUN: I got to sing it because there was a request for me, thankfully and I was more than happy to do so. At first I only knew it as OST of some drama, but later I realized it was OST of “Pasta” and also my song will be played a lot in the drama. So I was expecting a lot, and started to get nervous when I was recording. The melody itself is so sweet, but then the lyrics were a little embarrassing. The composer told me to sing it like I’m whispering to a girl’s ears, as sweet as possible. I tried my best to do it like that, but I don’t know if it worked.

BUGS: These days even competition between OSTs are fierce. What do you think are the charms of OSTs?

KYUHYUN: There are definitely charms in OSTs. When you just hear to song itself, you might not be interested in it, but when you hear it through a movie or a drama, it brings out better effect on the listeners, I think. I even have a separate playlist for my favourite OSTs that I listen to. In these ways, I think the charms of OSTs are more than enough. + Any drama you’re interested in these days? It’s Pasta. Haha.

BUGS: Can we expect to see you on stage singing “Listen..To You”?

KYUHYUN: If a lot of people love the song, then I should tell my company about it. I could say “People really love the song, so I want to be on stage singing it!” but I don’t think it’s that popular. I don’t have any specific plans, but if there is a chance, then I’ll try to do my best.

BUGS: When the song came out, what did the Super Junior members say?

KYUHYUN: Surprisingly and thankfully they called me even though I hadn’t said anything about it. They said “the song sounds good” or “it’s not bad at all!”, cheering me on with positive attitudes.

BUGS: Who was the most supportive of all?

KYUHYUN: Every member supported me. No one really was the most supportive, but ShinDong hyung was the first to respond to the song and cheered me on for it. He called me to tell me the song’s really good.

BUGS: You also participated on Yoo YoungSuk’s 20th anniversary album, singing “7 Years of Love”. There has been a review that said it revealed your singing ability. How did you come to participate?

KYUHYUN: I wasn’t going to say this, but I’m telling you because you’re Bugs. (smiles) Yoo YoungSuk sunbaenim said he worried about working with an idol singer. But he gave us a song called “Shining Star” for our Super Junior’s third album. When we were working on it, he really praised me a lot, maybe too much so that it got bit weird. When I sang, he would say “You’re a genius! Where have you been hiding all my life?” (^^) And then he told me that I should work with him again because he wants to compose me a song later on. Coincidentally right after, his 20th anniversary album came out, so I got to sing “7 Years of Love”.

BUGS: Was there anything hard working with Yoo YoungSuk?

KYUHYUN: Sunbaenim has such a young mind, and he tries to communicate with us about so many things, so he actually adjusted to me. If I asked him to “make this like that?” then he would mostly accept saying “Oh~ yes, sure!” If I asked him for something, he advised me on lots of things. So It’s was very meaningful and good time.

BUGS: Some times ago, we did an interview with Yoo YoungSuk. He really sad good things about you, what you think about it?

KYUHYUN: Hahaha. It really feels weird. I’m not used to such praises. But at the same time, it feels really good as he was one of the singers I looked up on.

BUGS: Then you must have some connection with Yoo YoungSuk.

KYUHYUN: I think I do. I just hope he’s thinking the same thing.

BUGS: For songs like “7 Years of Love” where you have to express your feelings, where do you get the emotions from?

KYUHYUN: I’ve never loved anyone for 7 years, so it was hard at first. In other interview, I told them that we stopped recording because I couldn’t focus on a part. The lyrics were a bit hard to understand, and I just couldn’t get the feeling in the lyrics. So I asked YYS why the lyrics were the way it is, and he explained it to me really nicely for about 10 minutes. After hearing his explanation and imagining, I could focus on the lyrics. I think it was a really good experience.

BUGS: Do you feel any difference between singing in a group and singing by yourself?

KYUHYUN: There’s bit of pressure. Of course there’s always pressure when recording SJ albums, but at least I can share with other members. And I don’t have a lot of experience in recording by myself, and since I was the one who had to deliver the message to the listeners, it was a little bit pressuring. (What would be the good thing about it?) 좋Well the good thing is that my voice is constantly heard (smiles).

BUGS: When listening to your voice, there is something different than other SJ members. Is there any song you want to sing by yourself out of the SJ songs?

KYUHYUN: Yes, I have a few. In the 2nd album, Yoon JongShin sunbae gave us a song called “Disco Drive”. I liked this song the first time I heard it. And I also really like the song “Shining Star”. We sing it on Super Show. If there is a chance, I want to sing these two songs by myself, and I do sing these often when I go to Karaoke.

BUGS: Is there any plan for you to publish solo albums?

KYUHYUN: I would be lying if I said I don’t have any, but for right now, I want to focus on team activities. And if a chance come along, then I’ll do my best. I did my best for “Pasta” OST as I knew this could be a chance. But I don’t have any plans for solo activities. Team activities come before it for now.

BUGS: You are musically talented, what kind of music do you want to do from now on?

KYUHYUN: The music I used to listen are all in the ballad genre, so if I do have to desire for my “own” music, then I want to focus on ballads even though I’m a dance singer. So for now I want to be able to show off the team colors. After, if I get a chance, I want to try some ballad music. If I become a solo artist, I probably won’t be singing a dance music. (smiles)

BUGS: What is your favourite music these days?

KYUHYUN: Oh, these days I’m listening to Brown Eyed Soul’s ‘Lord in Storm”

BUGS: Is there any singer you set as a role model?

KYUHYUN: I really like Sung SiKyung and Kim DongRyul sunbaenim. Actually there are a lot of respectable singers, but if I have to list, then I would like to be these two. I like all the songs from them.

BUGS: Is there any other parts of entertainment sector you want to try, like acting, variety, or MC.. or even studying more?

KYUHYUN: I don’t want to study anymore (smiles). Um,other members are very active in different parts of entertainment sector, but I’m not sure of which part I should head into. I’m bit greedy, so I do have interest in different parts of the entertainment sector… + Wouldn’t you know better if you thought about which programme you most want to be on along with the other members’ shows? Oh, I really like watching “Strong Heart”. When watching LT, EH, and SD hyungs, I think they’re really funny. Even though I can’t be as funny as they are, but I want to be on those shows at least once a year. Also, seeing other members act, I also wanted to try out acting. But I think that’s for later on, because right now, I want to be recognized for my music first.

BUGS: If you get to sing a duet, who would you sing it with?

KYUHYUN: Do I have to pick between idol singers? + That would be more fun^^ It’s not because we’re from a same company, gut I’d like to sing a duet with TaeYeon or Jessica of Girls Generation. Both of them are good singers. But the company’s not giving me the chance. Haha

BUGS: When can we see Super Junior working together?

KYUHYUN: I also want to know when that is. But I don’t think it’s going to be that long. We’ll be back better than before for sure.

BUGS: How do you want people to remember you musically?

KYUHYUN: I hope they will remember me as someone who really loves singing, his fans, and music.

BUGS: Thank you for the interview, and I hope “Listen..To You” gets a good response from the fans. We’ll finish up with future plans.

KYUHYUN: Yes, well this interview was about “Pasta” OST. I hope that in the future, more of OST composers will look for me (smiles). Super Junior will come back with new album, so our fans please wait until then by listening to my song “Listen..To You”, watching LT, EH, and SD in variety shows, and HC, SW, and KB in acting. I’ll comeback with other members. Thank you.

• Why I love Super Junior? I wasn’t into K-Pop when Super Junior debuted, I started noticing them only after they released Sorry Sorry (in my opinion, THE song that shot them to superstardom and got them where they are right now). My first impression of them was “Why so many members?” and “What’s with the haircut?” While watching EHB, it was then when I realized that these boys began to grow on me. They have a nonchalant approach to fame and they don’t take themselves too seriously, that’s a quality I rarely find in other K-Pop groups. I realize in Korean entertainment world, idol images are shaped and they have to maintain that, but every so often, with SJ members, their real personalities appear in interviews, variety shows, radio broadcasts and especially Super Show. They way they interact with each other make me feel like I’m watching the boys-next-door, approachable, funny, dorky and humble. I guess that imperfection shows that they are real and relatable.
  
  Why I love TwELFs and SPL? When I first started collecting information about Super Junior, I stumbled upon several fanbases, but TwELFs stood out to my attention immediately for several reasons: quality content, good English, pleasing to the eyes & easy to navigate.Like any other new converts, I joined in the fandom bandwagon and participated with gusto especially on Trending Topic projects. I was surprised to know that TwELFs founders were still in college, because they ran a tight ship with the blog and Twitter account. I was even more pleasantly surprised when I communicated via Twitter with the founders, because they were so friendly and unpretentious. TwELFs blog has meaty content without sacrificing entertainment value. It is informational without sounding too serious and at the same time, provides all the fun tidbits for fans –newly minted or veteran.
  
  SPL is oozing with creativity (e.g. forum members referred to as Students and Super Junior members as Professors!) and over a short period of time has gained the reputation of being one of the most acclaimed international forums for ELFs. SPL keeps making changes for the better and continues to carry out credible projects for Super Junior and ELFs. SPL is a labor of love, and I salute the people behind it, who are such dedicated hard-workers.
