The SM artists gathered in Thailand on November 23 where they provided some 23,000 fans with a night of music and fun.

Following their successful concert in Singapore, the SM artists brought its ongoing SMTown Live World Tour III to Bangkok.

Kangta, BoA, DBSK, Super Junior, SNSD, SHINee, f(x), EXO and more hit the stage, churning out performance after performance of some of their biggest hits from No.1 to Sorry Sorry to Gee and more.

Also seen and heard were a slew of collaboration performances including SHINee’s Onew and EXO’s Baek Hyun and Chen singing Open Arms, Taetiseo and EXO’s D.O., Chan Yeol, Lu Han and Se Hun performing DJ Got Us Fallin’ in Love and Super Junior’s Kyuhyun, DBSK’s Max Changmin and SHINee’s Minho collaborating on Just The Way You Are.

Though the flash rains soaked both artists and guests, it didn’t dampen their spirits or the energy as they all cheered, shouted and sang together in unison and showing the love for the 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.
