Worthy of the name of ‘Korea’s Best Boy Band’, specializing in all 18 arts of variety. Full of ‘points’, with accurate all-kill skills, the Super Show-hand which had no boredom for three hours straight!
In a sea of sapphire blue light, performing in the Seoul Olympic Stadium, Super Junior started their concert with their hit song ‘Sorry Sorry’ among blasts of fireworks on a unique stage, blinding the eyes of all that were watching!
Members took turns hanging from metal wires five yards above the air, and when they were performing ‘No Other’, Leeteuk and Sungmin flew into the air amidst spurts of bright fireworks and moved to the center of the stage to throw flowers and confetti at their fans, and even before the fireworks were over, the pretty boys floated around like angels appearing out of nowhere.
Besides the extended stage that allowed the boys to get closer to their fans, the stage directors Shindong and Eunhyuk designed countless stages using the elevator that brought them up to the stage, making them ‘appear out of nowhere’, as well as riding around in carts to interact with their fans, these ideas making it so that there was no awkwardness whatsoever within the first half hour of the starting of the show. The 10 boys who were full of ‘dance’* power did not forget about their personal talents, with Heechul banging on his drums and Sungmin playing the guitar, they put their entire heart into performing their 34 songs, proving the fact that they indeed are idol singers.
*A Cantonese pun; it doesn’t make sense when translated into English.
Laughing point! Super Hilarious!
Seeing the members work to make everyone laugh is a sure hit of their concert. Last time, they danced ‘Gee’ and that wasn’t even enough, this time they just decided to play it big and transform into Beyonce and Lady Gaga! Heechul, who is known for his determination and slogan of ‘If I do it, I might as well do it to the best of my ability’ completely changed into Lady Gaga, with the fishnet tights and fiery red lipstick- the best thing was, he looked even better than the original! Compared to the beauty of ‘Lady Heehee’, Shindong’s ‘Shinyonce’ won the laughter of the fans, working with Eunhyuk and Donghae and their exaggerated M-shaped leg movements, they caused their entire stadium burst out into laugher. The colourful variety did not just end there, as the trot-specializing Super Junior T sang their new song ‘Tok Tok Tok’ (Knock Knock Knock) and made everyone laugh until they had no air left. The idols seemed to throw their image away and made everyone laugh, and afterwards they put on a performance of ‘The Terminator’ and ‘Ninja Assassin’, extending the laughter coming from their fans. The funniest part of the show was definitely the ‘fruit basket’, where the 10 boys appeared dressed up as vegetables, and upon seeing the pretty boys dressed up as life-sized bean sprouts, chillies, grapes, onions, and more, it was definitely a new sight to see. The members who reached the high point of their concert with their fans gave it their all on the stage, joking around with each other, spraying dry ice, and attacking each other with water, exposing their playful sides and their brotherly bonds, bringing warmth within explosive laughter.
Crying point! Super touching!
Kangin entered the army in July because of his drunk driving incident, Super Junior especially designed a stage using 3D technology to have a ‘reunion’ with him. In the video message*, it showed leader Leeteuk crying while declaring that he would protect everyone as they waited for Kangin to return from the army. At this moment, there was a crying noise, and looking back, the ELF (Super Junior’s fanclub) were already streaming tears to make a river. This type of crying, it is seriously no lie.
*There was actually a song title, but I didn’t know how to translate it into either romanized Korean or English.
After the sad moment, Super Junior KRY’s best singers Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, and Yesung once again drew out their talent – R&B method of luring tears out, the princes of romance’s soothing voice entering the ear and shaking the heart; Yesung who had been chosen by SM Entertainment as the best singer in Super Junior sang his OST ‘It Has To Be You’, showcasing his sturdy singing skills, and ‘Little Prince of Singing’ Kyuhyun, who was all dressed up in a suit, and Ryeowook with a high-pitched but soothing voice performed as well.
Exposing point! Super sexy!
Summer has arrived again, besides the heavy-bodied Shindong who isn’t in a position to showcase his body, the other nine boys let their fans have a large serving of ice cream. Of course, there was definitely Siwon who claims ownership of the best body. The entire point of the stage outfits was to let the fans have their money’s worth of looking, and Siwon showed off his tight abs and chiseled stomach muscles, presenting a gift of chocolate abs to the fans, as well as swelling chest muscles, and even causing a ripple effect when he ripped his shirt off his back. It was definitely something worth seeing*, and the girl fans who watched until the blood was pulsing through their veins and they nearly contracted nosebleeds’ heart rates definitely rose to above 100 beats per minute. ‘Dancing machine’ Eunhyuk and ‘pretty boy’ Donghae did not lose in any of the action, fighting for a girl onstage, with an explosion of manliness and sexiness. Even Sungmin who is a little more feminine let out an explosion of manliness, under the direction of leader Leeteuk, he performed a sexy dance with four female dancers onstage, with the hardly-seen man power all onstage. Leeteuk’s body isn’t as good as the other members’, and he who was wearing a wife beater onstage showed his muscles and bare back while sending looks at the fans, using his expressions to catch others’ attention, he is definitely the group’s leader!
*Cantonese pun inserted here; it doesn’t make sense when translated into English.
Oops! The imperfectness in the perfectness!
When they were singing ‘A Man In Love’ at the end of the concert, Siwon who is the most fit began to take off his clothes, working hard to be the most handsome he could be, when sudddenly, the elevator ‘suddenly’ began to descent, and Siwon tripped over the small gap and twisted his ankle; however, he withstood the pain, stood up, and continued to perform. Ouch! On another hand, another member, Sungmin, also got his shoe stuck in the elevator, and as a result he had to take it off and walk around with only one shoe on. Eunhyuk who saw the situation quickly ran over to help, and used all of his strength to pull the shoe out, points added for that!
During the press conference cute lunchboxes were provided, as well as cookies, cakes, and fruit baskets. The charisma of Super Junior is unstoppable, attracting millions of international fans to watch their concert. The ‘luggage safe’ outside the concert venue allowed fans from overseas to dump their luggage right away and rush to go watch the concert.

“Let’s look for Leeteuk!! keke I’m searching for him as well…It’s really too funny…quick come and try to look…kekeke”
Leeteuk asks everyone to search for him in a group photo taken with other idol groups.
It is not easy trying to find Leeteuk amongst them. Look carefully in the picture at the back of 2PM Wooyoung who is wearing a blue t-shirt and a member of Miss A. Between them you will see Leeteuk who seemed to be walking, is like the size of a sesame.
The fans who found Leeteuk in the photo commented, “I finally found it…within the allocated time kekeke”, “I found it!!! Was oppa too late in coming to the front for the photo?? keke”, “Oppa why are you at the back?”, “I was only able to find it after enlarging it 2x” etc.
Shindong also commented, “This photo is like we were going on a school trip kekeke” in a reply to Leeteuk’s photo.

On MBC TV Chuseok Special Episode “Radio Star Super Show”, aired Sept 23th, Super Junior members mentioned their thoughts about Kangin and Hankyung.
The MCs carefully mentioned the incident that involved Kangin who is now in the military service. They asked, “What about Kangin’s position in Super Junior now that he’s on military service?”
Leeteuk confessed, “When the case first erupted, we tried so hard to wrap it. People would be thinking, ‘If we wouldn’t, then who would?’. But again, exactly one month, another incident blew up, we felt our heart was turned down.”
“The frustration and betrayal couldn’t help but rise up. But as the time passed, we kept thinking that we’re the one that should protect him. Adults are always talking about ‘time heals the wounds’, it seems appropriate with our situation.” Leeteuk said
Also mentioned was Hankyung who wants to terminate his exclusive contract with SM. The members said that, “We miss Hankyung. Right now, we can’t contact him.”
MC Yoon Jongshin asked, “Was there any sign that this would happened?”.
Shindong answered, “To be honest, I want to say something…”
“The news spread in China was ‘the members didn’t take care of him well’. To be honest, it’s wrong. We went to play together, went to drink together.” said Shindong who seem sad.
Leeteuk said, “If I knew that it’d be so hard on him, I wish he could’ve consulted with the members so we’d understand what the problem is. All of us didn’t know his situation.”
Eunhyuk said, “Right now, we miss him so much.”. Leeteuk said, “We leave Hankyung’s place empty. I still have time before the military service; I hope before the time comes, we can stand on stage together as 13.”
Chuseok special Radio Star has 3 parts. Part 1 is Super Whereabouts Talk, Part 2 is Translator Message Talkshow, and Part 3 is Chuseok Filial Piety Concert. Leeteuk, Shindong, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun appeared on the broadcast.

The road is congested? Sorry~ Suju will apologize to you instead ‘Sorry Sorry’
● Leeteuk (KBS Cool FM(89.1MHz) ‘Super Junior’s Kiss the Radio’ 10PM)
You are irritated because the road is congested right? I’m sorry. In that case, you have to listen to Super Junior’s ‘Sorry Sorry.’ Why, you ask? When the traffic is bad and you feel suffocated, there aren’t any people that are apologizing to you. So, I’ll do it instead.
When Choosuk comes around this time of the year, I have a memory that I can never forget. When I was in elementary school, to celeberate Choosuk I rode on my dad’s car to go to my dad’s family house. Of course, the road was congested then. But my dad’s car broken down on the highway. It was a situation where we couldn’t go anywhere. Right then, the tow truck came. The tow truck connected my dad’s car and we drove on the side of the road. We went to grandma’s house all the way like that.
I’m not going to idle because it’s Choosuk. I’ll do live radio shows everyday. The reason people have to listen to ‘Kiss the Radio’ on Choosuk is simple. Except for the 22nd which is the day of Choosuk, I’ll be doing live radio shows during the holiday.

Super Junior, who gives off a sweet charisma while showing a manly side has attracted many. On the 4th of September, Super Junior performed ‘No Other’ and ‘MiinA’ in the MBC Show! Music Centre. Using emotionally rich vocals to sing No Other, Super Junior has melted the hearts of many girls. This time they changed the performance of the song MiinA by having harmonization, along with their dance moves they showed a more ‘explosive’ charisma.
On the other hand, on this day of Show! Music Centre, a series of Incheon Korean Music Wave 2010 was played featuring many popular artists.

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.
