If Super junior twitter followers were combined, They would be 1st worldwide December 9, 2010


Super Junior appeared on MBC Chuseok special “Radio star super show” on thr 23th, and boasted that if the total of their followers were combined, they would be first worldwide on twitter.

Super Junior explained “If we calculate it individually, it’s hard to become first but if we combine all the super junior’s members(accounts) we are first worldwide”

Super Junior said modestly “In the case of the 4th album, it ranked 7th in the worldwide top sales. It’s a temporary position and it’s the album total, but because we were 7th we were surprised. Album sales reached about 300 000copies, It’s probably because those days the music industry is in recession”

Leeteuk said “Super Junior’s popularity is high in the Asian Market” he then added “It seems that it’s only in Korea that we are not popular, this is not only because of us but I think because in Korea there is a lot of good singers “

That day, the members all showed their individual skills. Kyuhyun singing the OST of drama “King of baking Kim Takgu”, Sungmin making a demonstration of NunChaKu, and Eunhyuk sexy dance and singing caught attention of viewers.

Filed under: hangeng,super junior — keiiryeomin @ 4:13 am

The 3rd Music Billboard New Artists’ Awards Ceremony will be grandly held at Beijing on the 19th of December this year, and at the moment, this year’s awards ceremony has entered the most intense preparation phase, whereby the main prizes and the finalists concerned have all been confirmed, with Han Geng and Hebe being the frontrunners of winning the Best Newcomer award.

Super rookies Hebe and Han Geng joins the New Artists’ Award Ceremony

In the year 2010, the Chinese music industry has displayed the most special phenomenon, where a group of “super rookies*” have successfully broke into the records market. Aside from having accumulated years of popularity, they have also received the industry and the market’s recognition for their “new moves”.

In the vocal department, Han Geng might not be able to be compared with Hebe or any of the other artists who depend on their voices and vocal techniques as the main selling point, but after walking out of the shadow casted by the storm leading from his contract termination and putting down the halo of debuting for five years, Han Geng has laid a strong foundation in his first step in developing a solo career, and displayed a remarkable performance. His first album 《Geng Xin》 has many different styles, from his expertise the electronic dance music, to slow ballads which reflect the voice of his heart, Han Geng was able to skillfully portray his vocals in both fast and slow songs. Turning from a member of an idol group into a solo artist, Han Geng has done his homework well**; it’s not difficult to hear the leap in his diligence and singing techniques. It allowed everyone to see Han Geng’s seriousness and hardworking side, and his pure dedication towards his dreams.

The 3rd Newcomers’ Awards Ceremony will be held at Beijing on the 19th of December. To find out who will be the winner of the night, please tune in to the 3rd Meng Niu Music Billboard Newcomers’ Awards Ceremony.

(Note: All other parts unrelated to Han Geng have been omitted.)

* Both Han Geng and Hebe aren’t exactly “rookies” per se, since they’ve both debuted for 5 years and 10 years respectively in the music industry. However, they’re considered as rookies because they have pursued a solo career.
** Meaning that Han Geng has made adequate preparations for his solo career.

On November 29, during an interview around 1 PM, Super Junior Kyuhyun expressed his thoughts on his first challenge in a musical after his debut. On this day, besides Kyuhyun, the practice room also saw the presence of Yoon Joonsang, Uhm Kijoon, ChunSangJiHee Dana, Kim Jinsoo, Min Yeongki, and other actors.

On the public site of the practice room for the open rehearsal of the musical ‘The Three Musketeers’, at the Chungmu Art Hall in Seoul, Kyuhyun confessed “More than half of the Super Junior members have confronted themselves with musicals, so I was worried as to why I alone wasn’t getting any offer.” In fact, among all Super Junior members, Yesung, Sungmin, Donghae, Kangin, and Heechul have experienced appearing in musicals before. Especially Yesung, who has a solid role as a musical actor after having played in ‘South Korean Mountain Fortress’, ‘Hong Gil Dong’, and ‘Spamalot’.

On this day, Kyuhyun talked about how he was given the opportunity to have his first musical role, and how he was picked to be one of the actors in ‘The Three Musketeers’. He disclosed that “I didn’t choose to be in ‘The Three Musketeers’, it’s ‘The Three Musketeers’ that chose me,” and “I present myself with a heart full of gratitude towards all the people who let me join this production.” He also added with determination, “And since I have been chosen by the producers of the musical ‘The Three Musketeers’ to fill in the role of D’Artagnan, I will do my best.”

Kyuhyun, who is now getting initiated to acting, said with a laugh “I have really been wanting to give musicals a try since long. More than half of the members already did a musical, so I troubled myself thinking ‘Why isn’t any musical being offered to me’. But while I was agonizing over it, I got my musical! Luckily, for my very first time, I’m with ‘The Three Musketeers’ sunbaenims who are really amazing, and that makes me feel good.”

Then he talked about his aspirations, “Although I’ve never done acting, not even once, I’m adapting to the sunbaenims’ mentality one by one. I’m really worried, but they have been giving me a lot of advice, so I think I’m going to get better in skill.” He then opened his heart and admitted, “So, although I truly wanted to be in a musical, I clearly lack in conveying and expressing emotions because I don’t have any experience in acting. But I also believe I can improve by carefully observing my sunbaenims.”

Set in the France of the 17th century, ‘The Three Musketeers’ is a musical about D’Artagnan, a young man who dreams of becoming a musketeer of the royal family, and the court’s Musketeers Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. The adventures of these people and the conspiracy of the powerful cardinal of the French royal household will liven up this musical.

At the end of 2010, ‘The Three Musketeers’ will start to be performed in the splendidly decorated Chungmu Art Hall in Seoul, going from December 15 until January 30 (tickets price range: 40,000~120,000 won).

Part1: Effects on Different Countries

Japan

In 2008, SuperJunior had their ‘’SuperJunior 1st Premium Event in Japan” concert cum fanmeeting and has successfully entered the Japan market. More than 12000 people had attended the event. In Fuji, one of the famous Japanese drama <医龙> had mentioned SuperJunior in its first episode as an extra. One of the actress in the show is a SuperJunior fan, and one of her lines are “SuperJunior in amazing, is Korea’s top male group, I must really meet them once.” Although in the drama, there is only a picture of them, but appearing in a popular drama has once confirm their position as “Asia’s idol group”.

Other than that, SuperJunior-KRY which comprises of Yesung, Ryeowook and Kyuhyun had taken action to make sure their names stays in Japan. Tickets for their Tokyo concert had been sold out as soon as it had been released. It is believed that SuperJunior popularity in Japan will follow them until next year’s February where they would have their SuperShow3.Random Question: Who in SuperJunior has the most fans in Japan?
Answer: Looking cute and bubbly every time we see him, Sungmin has captured hearts of both mothers and noona fans. He is also the member who can speak Japanese fluently. In the television show, <GoodMorning>, the members have also chose Sungmin as the one with the highest popularity in Japan.

Saudi Arabia

Shrimps? Saudi Arabia ? That’s right! The Hallyu Wave has already reached the desert! (i have no idea what shrimps got to do with deserts) In one of the local surveys, SuperJunior was voted has the most popular Kpop idol group. With over 40% of the entire vote, SuperJunior had defeated the other groups – SS501, DBSK, SHINee, 2PM, BigBang, Ukiss, C.N Blue, Beast and 2AM. Leader Leeteuk’s name is placed side by side with LadyGaGa in the result of a magazine survey, confirming the popularity of SuperJunior in SaudiArabia.

The level of craziness of Middle East Kpop fans has reach the stage where fans would dig out their money, just to go to Korea to see and catch their idols. Likewise for SuperJunior fans, many female fans had been calling the radio show ,“ Kiss The Radio’’ which is being hosted by Leeteuk and Eunhyuk, just for the tiny hope that their call would get through and they could talk to their idols. Earlier on, in one of the local television show, from 2000fans, 1 lucky fan was chosen to go to korea to interview SuperJunior and that fan naturally received VIP treatment from the members.

USA

Although the US is not a easy battleground, it is shows good potential. During the June WorldCup theme song competition, SuperJunior’s “Victory Korea” was awarded first for the <Best WorldCup Song> by the ESPN. Having 90% of the votes, they had easily defeated fellow nominees, Shakira “WakaWaka” , Akon”Oh Africa” etc.

At the same times, Boa, SNSD, SHINee and other artist from the company had organised a large scale concert, SMTown LA during September, attracting more than 15000 people of which, 70% are Americans. Even top star, Jack Nicholson, had been spotted in the crowd. According to reports, in 1 week, “SMTown” has entered the US Billboard, placing itself at the 10th spot.

What is the proudest thing? That is that SuperJunior is appearing on CNN with KimHyunJoong. With Leeteuk and Siwon as representatives, they had a interview about how the media and internet has allowed them to gain and interact with fans. Looks like SuperJunior’s wish to cover the world in sapphire blue is coming true soon.

China

With the debut of SJM two years ago, consisting of Kyuhyun, Siwon, Ryeowook, Donghae and China members, Zhoumi and Henry. Even after ex-leader, Hangeng left the group; the remaining 6 members continued to improve and became even better than before. SuperJunior is the korea’s endorser for KyoChon had appeared in the various shops in Shanghai for the opening ceremony. Not only that, SJM had film ads for products ranging from drinks to clothes and handphones.

While SJM is busy working in china, the other members of SuperJunior are also slowing entering the china entertainment industry. Acting genius Heechul had appeared in an idol drama, <Youth Melody>, acting as a Korea transferred student who is in love with the main actress. SuperJunior MC Kings, Shindong and Eunhyuk whom MC-ed <The Birth of a Great Star> had became judges for the China Navy Troops.

SJM will be having their new album next year. Are you ready? M for….. More!

Taiwan

SuperJunior’s popularity in Taiwan had reached sky high, ever since last year’s “SorrySorry” which has broken all records by remaining 1st for 36 weeks in the biggest music site, KKBOX. Until now, nobody has ever broken that record and it shows how awesome SuperJunior is. The latest song, “Bonamana” had became 1st for 22 weeks. Subgroups SJM and SJ-KRY also have their own achievements. SJM had won the <Best Group> award with their song “Super Girl” even when their opponents were all strong and famous groups. SJ-KRY would be having their concert soon and the tickets were sold out in hours after its release. Siwon and Donghae had continued their “flower boy” period, continuing from last year, after both boys had film a MV with Ariel Lin, the latest news is that both boys are going to collaborate with Ariel Lin again in a Taiwan idol drama < Challenge of the Gorgeous>

Next year, 22 January, together with 2PM, 4Minute, Beast and MBLAQ, they will attend the <Asia’s Dream, Taiwan-Korea Cultural Exchange Concert>. In March, they would be coming back for the widely anticipated SuperShow3 and in April, the SMTown concert.

Thailand

SuperJunior’s popularity in Southeast Asia had started in Thailand. In 2008, Thailand-Korea relationship celebrated their 50th anniversary and the ambassador is no other then SuperJunior! From idol group to a celebrity foreign ambassador, it’s really too good to be true.

What’s more amazing is the way they manage to attract money. SJ members were said to have Yamaha Fino vehicle and had endorse Nseason’s 12plus makeup brand and other products since 2007.

Super Junior is so famous in Thailand that even the policeman knows how to dance it. Thinking that the SorrySorry fever is coming down, few policeman uncles danced to it and caused the phenomenon to rise back up again. The video of the parody had become widely spread in YouTube.

SuperJunior’s dancing machine, Eunhyuk has the most fans in Thailand. Reason being that not only he looks like a Thai, even his accent was that of a local!

Singapore

In June, SuperJunior first stepped into Singapore for the Singtel/Samsung Private Showcase. However, as the place could only hold 2000 fans, many were disappointed. This time round, there is no need to “SorrySorry” anymore, in 29 January next year; SuperJunior would be bringing in the original version of SuperShow3, giving the fans another round of excitement!

I have only translated the first part, shall post the 2nd and 3rd part tomorrow ^^

~Super Junior’s 5th Anniversary Fan Account:

(Btw…KANGIN WAS THERE!OMO OMO OMO!)

The fanmeeting started with Sorry Sorry.
After the song ended, they said, “we are Super Junior~” and E.L.F.s said, “we are E.L.F.~”
Then, each member introduced himself. Some of them introduced themselves the same way they did when they debuted.
So, Leeteuk said, “I’m an angel who lost his wings, teuki teuki Leeteuk.” Heechul said, “I’m Cinderella Heechul.” Eunhyuk said, “I’m jewel handsome man Eunhyuk.”
Kyuhyun said, “I’m the real dancing machine.”

After the rest of the members introduced themselves, a compilation video of Super Junior’s appearances on various shows started playing.

The members came on the stage again.
Next was a quiz show. The member who gets the most questions right would get beef and the second place would get wine.
The first question was “what is the web address of official Super Junior website?”
Heechul answered that it’s SJ-Market while someone answered that it’s Onsaemiro.
Other questions included, “how many times the song Miinah says miinah?” and “what’s title of the movie that all the Super junior members appear in?”
Heechul was number one and received the beef. The second place was Sungmin and Eunhyuk. So, Sungmin got the wine while Eunhyuk got the Wine case.
Next came a huge cake. Kyuhyun was complaining that it’s not 5 year anniversary for him.

A video played where other artists congratulated Suju on 5 year anniversary.

Next was the floulescent stick event. The song Happy Together came on and E.L.Fs started singing.
Donghae was the only member who cried and others made fun of him for it.

Next, Siwon and Donghae imitated Siwon’s Reaction commercial.

Then, it was time for the members to pick out questions that E.L.F.s asked and answer them.
Kyuhyun’s question was from a Chinese fan. The fan asked if he can kiss her and he said yes.
The other members said that he can’t and Kyuhyun picked another question.
The question was, “if you are born as a girl, who would you get married to?”
Leeteuk told him to hug the member that he wants to get married to.
Kyuhyun went behind Leeteuk and kissed him on the cheek.

Donghae picked a question and it was, “What’s Eunhyuk to Donghae?”
Donghae answered that Eunhyuk’s someone who he can’t explain in words.
Then, Siwon got mad and grabbed Donghae’s collar. Siwon asked him, “then, what about me?”
Leeteuk said that it’s time for Donghae to choose between Eunhyuk and Siwon.
Siwon told Leeteuk to give him a chance to say something before Donghae makes the decision.
Eunhyuk said, “Siwon, are you getting nervous? Eunhae’s the real deal.”
Siwon then said, “Eunhyuk can’t take care of Donghae. I have the ability ot take care of Donghae forever.”
Donghae felt like he was in a difficult situation and said he would rather die.
In the end, Donghae couldn’t choose, so Eunhyuk and siwon became a couple:D

Most of Heechul’s questions were asking whether he was a girl.
Heechul said he was going to show himself for 5 minutes and pretended to take of his pants.
E.L.F.s were shouting, “take it off.” Heechul then said, “you guys are perverts.”

Eunhyuk was asked, “who do you like more? Choco or me?”
Eunhyuk said, “how can you compare a person with a dog?” Yesung then said when he was in the dorm with Choco, Eunhyuk ignored him.
When Eunhyuk came home, he went right towards Choco. Then he saw Yesung and said, “ah, you were here too?”

Ryeowook was asked, “what’s Leeteuk underwear to you?”
He replied that it’s ragged.

The members talked about Kibum. They said Kibum’s currently receiving acting lessons. They also talked about Hangeng.
Then, they talked about their upcoming schedules. Super Junior-M is currently preparing to record their album.
Sungmin talked about his drama. Yesung is receiving a lot of requests to sing OST. Heechul’s receiving a lot of requests to be on variety shows.

Next was each member’s feeling about today.
Kyuhyun said it has been only 4 years and 6 months for him and that he’s going to have a party 6 months later to celebrate his 5th year.
Sungmin said he was able to be here today because of other members. He’s going to continue to work hard.
Heechul said he wants to receive Golden disk daesang.
Eunhyuk also said he wants to receive daesang.
Yesung said he wants to receive an individual award for his song.
Leeteuk said he wants to be with E.L.F.s forever and that he’s very thankful.
