Suju Interview!

Welcome to the MAAs as first time nominees of Favorite Artist of Korea! The
theme surrounding this year's MAAs revolves around the letter 'M.' What is the
first thing that comes to mind when you think of the letter 'M?'

Siwon:
Super Junior – M!

Leeteuk: Music! MTV! Man!

You've always had
radical hairstyles and outfits. With the constant changing of image, what is the
real Super Junior like?

Eunhyuk: The hairstyles and outfits have ranged
from cute to wild. But we're more colorful and are much more multi-faceted in
personality and character than that.

Having said that, your new album is
a remarkable departure from the bubbly image of your first. What are some of
your thoughts on this change?

Leeteuk: The first album portrayed us as
more boyish and adorable. As for the second album, we have grown up a little
more, and so this is us in a more manly light.

Right now there seems to
be quite a large number of Korean boy bands coming, and they're mostly all going
down the K-pop and ballad route. So how do you distinguish yourselves from them
musically?

Leeteuk: Well first and foremost, we have 13 members. So
that's already a huge difference, and a memorable one to boot. And each and
every one of our members has a different and unique voice. Aside from that, we
also do other stuff like acting and DJing. So we have a more well-rounded
portfolio.

Speaking of which, I think one of your most memorable shows
has got to be Full House, the home-stay chronicle with Anya and Eva. I'm sure a
lot of us are curious to know how that came about, and whether Super Junior is
planning to open their home in future again.

Leeteuk: The Full House
experience was a very moving and rewarding one. We learned a lot from it, and
we're also really glad that we've been able to share a bit of the Korean culture
with our foreign friends. If there's ever the opportunity, we’d definitely like
to be doing this again.

Erm… Well actually I didn't think of that but
now… Let's just move on, eh? With 13 people in a band, the leader (Leeteuk) is
usually the one who's the main spokesperson. And some of the members are also
more outspoken than others. So in that case, how do all the members get equal
representation in the band?

Eunhyuk: Well, each of us have our own
talent and contribution to the band. Kyuhyun is vocally powerful, Sungmin is our
poster boy of cuteness, Donghae is a good dancer.

Donghae: Shiwon has
the global face, and Euhyuk is known for his rapping. So in a way, we all get a
fair share of showing what we're good at.

What about the younger ones
then? Donghae, Sungmin and Kyuhyun. Do they get bullied all the time?

Leeteuk: Yes. It's mostly what they're there for! [Laughs]

Living and touring together all the time, what are some of the weirdest
habits of some of the members?

Siwon: Every time I go on a holiday, I
always carry the most bags.

Sungmin: He brings almost everything
possible, and he organizes them neatly.

Leeteuk: So if we need exercise
equipment, or even some kind of medicine, we'll just go to him. He's the best
possible roommate to have.

Siwon: We always have some kind of a bet to
see which roommate we'll get.

You've been on the tour the past couple of
months for the Super Show. Why isn't Singapore one of your stops?

Leeteuk: Well yeah, we've actually been going to a lot of other places
in Asia. We did the first show in Thailand, and we're planning nine more stops.
We'd actually have loved to make a stop at Singapore. Why haven't you called
us?!

Ahhh I see. Our bad. Don't worry. I'll be sure to speak to my boss
about it.

Super Junior: YEAH!!!

A lot of your songs talk about
love. What exactly does it mean to you, anyway?

Kyuhyun: Love is sweet.

Sungmin: I haven't really known what love is all about actually.

Awwww. Soon, soon.

Leeteuk: Love is being lovesick.

Oh
dear. Why so negative?

Leeteuk: I haven't had very good experiences with
it. [Laughs]

Oops okay I'm sorry!

Donghae: Love is romantic.

Siwon: Love is patient.

Finally, tell us a little-known fact
about Super Junior.

Eunhyuk: Well, in all our reality TV shows we are
usually very honest about ourselves, and so our fans know most everything about
us.

Leeteuk: Even to the point of knowing about Eunhyuk's smelly feet.
[Laughs]

Eunhyuk: No! No!

Alright, I believe you, I do! Thanks,
boys, for talking to me. Good luck! And… bye!

Cute right? lol!! Now, bad news:

This is really an April's Fool's Joke made up at Max Baidu Bar on 1st April itself. All the information here (faye wong attending their concert, blah blah) are all made up. I believe this article was translated from the original Chinese post. I first saw the Chinese post on 1st April where the owner made up this news, quoting a made-up newspaper source. She then replied to say this is a joke, reminding users to spot the made-up newspaper source. However, I guess some users missed her replies and thought this was true, and thus this was spread around.

I'm not sure whether I can express myself well here, but I do find it a pity sometimes, when fans photo shop tvxq's photo's and pics, create fanfics, parodies and stuff, leading to incorrect information being conveyed if they are not clarified or thought to be true. I'm not bashing any creators of PS pics, fanfics and parodies here, as I understand it's all because of the love we had for tvxq, just that it's a pity if the intention is not being properly conveyed.

T_T... I was really looking to the opening!! T_T.
