  • Eunyuk is also the type of person who is also very sensitive, he cries easily. He cried the hardest when Super Junior got their first award back in 2007.
  • According to the members and what we can always see, Eunhyuk is just like an innocent, caring, loving kid, that's why the members prank him a lot. The members had made him cry once when they told Super Junior is going to break up because Shindong will be out of the group. But in the end, not only him but almost all of the members cry seeing him crying and confessed his feelings.
  • He told them that he loves them so much. He thinks of them as his brothers and he never want to lose them.
  • But even though he got prank a lot before, everyone bet that he won't even notice if the members trying to prank him again. He's just so clueless and innocent like that xD He won't suspect anyone doing bad things because he's always positive.

  • He trusts his member so much. He loves his members so much that he cried at the thought of them breaking up. The members had also said that Eunhyuk is the sweetest among them, and a very nice person for any girl to date.

    9. Donghae


  • Donghae is the 9th member in Super Junior, he was born on October 15, 1986.
  • Nicknames : Fish, Sushi, Ryeowook's #1 fan, Bada's dad, East Sea (Donghae means East Sea in Korean) and Mokpo Uljjang.
  • He's now 24 years old.
  • Blood type : A
  • Occupations : Singer, Dancer and Actor.
  • Donghae is also one of the cutest members in Super Junior and very childish too. Even Kyuhyun, the youngest said that he sometimes feel like he isn't suppose to call Donghae 'hyung' cause he always feel like he's older than Donghae. 
  • Aside from being cute, Donghae is also VERY sensitive. He cries easily, like a lot. He cries almost all the time. He even cried when he saw the members fighting. He hates seeing any of them fighting, so he cried and told them to stop. Member Kyuhyun had imitate his crying face before on a show and all the member laughed out loud.
  • Donghae became a singer because of his father. His father had a very beautiful voice, Leeteuk truthfully mentioned before that Donghae's father's voice could win over many real singers. Donghae's father always wanted to be a singer when he was young but he was not allowed. So he asked Donghae one day if he wanted to be a singer and Donghae said 'yes' and went for auditions.
  • Donghae failed the audition once but then passed the second one. Because of his father's support, Donghae got to be a trainee in SM entertainment and debuted with other Super Junior members about 4 years after.


    Donghae talking about his father, which made him and the members cry :'(

  • But then unfortunately, Donghae's father died in 2006 because of cancer. He cries every time people mention about his father. On almost every shows, the MCs always asked him about his father and not only Donghae but also the members cried every time he started talking about his father, crying. Donghae's father was a very wonderful person that made all the members loved him so much.
  • Leeteuk had said that before his father died a few years ago, his family and Donghae's family went karaoke together. Before they went home, Donghae's father called Leeteuk to talk with him outside. Leeteuk said, until now he still remember everything Donghae's father had told him. Donghae's father held his hand and asked Leeteuk to take care of his son because he trusted him and he knew that Leeteuk is a good leader. He knew he didn't have much time left, so he left Donghae to Leeteuk to take care of. Leeteuk couldn't stop crying when he talked about this.
  • And because of that, Leeteuk is very close to Donghae until now. They even share a room together in their dorm.
  • Now all the members take care of Donghae very well, especially Leeteuk.
  • Donghae never drinks alcohol because he doesn't want to and he promised his father that he'll not. Donghae had said before, "If I have a wish... I wish for my dad to come to my concert..at least once." 


    10. Siwon




  • Siwon is the 10th member in the group, he was born in February 10, 1987.
  • Nicknames : Simba, Horse, Bodyguard, #1 fan of lord.
  • He's now 23 years old.
  • Blood type : B
  • Occupations : Singer, Dancer, Actor and Model.
  • Siwon is the wealthiest member in Super Junior according. Instead of handling his dad's business, he chose to be a singer instead, just like Kyuhyun.
  • He's very religious type of person. He reads Bible everyday, even goes to the church frequently. He always asked the other members to go with him but always ended up with only Donghae.
  • He can speak English. When he debuted as a singer with all the Super Junior members, he was already an actor.
  • Everyone knows that Siwon is the king of gestures. He does many types of gestures he talks causing everyone to imitate his a lot. The other members love to imitate his actions on shows and caused so many laughter coming from the audiences.
  • People always say that his life is like a movie, the way he walks, talks, does things are different than other people, very charismatic more like every main guy characters in movies.
  • The members mentioned before that Siwon is the strongest among them. He once accidently pushed Eunhyuk into a drain while trying to give a way to someone. He also accidently broke Leeteuk's nose during a dance practice. 


  • Because he has a nice body with muscles and packs, all the members envy his a lot. He is the reason why the members often go to the gym to work out at dawn. Because of their packed schedule, dawn is the only time they are free.
  • Leeteuk once said, “Siwon is almost perfect. He's handsome, kind, religious and rich. But God is fair. He's a little bit deaf.”

Super Junior members

Super Junior ^^

Super Junior is the BIGGEST Idol group in South Korea. For me, they are like Jonas Brothers, but Korean version lol.

Super Junior debuted (started their career) on November 6, 2005 under SM Entertainment.

Super Junior members are multi-talented. They can sing. They can dance. They can act. They can host and some of them even do modelling.

If you don't know, Super Junior has 13 members altogether. Started from the leader, Leeteuk to the maknae(youngest), Kyuhyun.

Their arrangement from the oldest to the youngests...

1. Leeteuk (Jungsu)












  • Leeteuk is the oldest in Super Junior. He was born on July 1, 1983.
  • Nicknames : Teukie, Eeteuk.
  • He's now 27 years old.
  • Blood type : A
  • Occupation : Singer, Dancer, Actor, Television host, MC & DJ.
  • He's also called, Angel without wings.
  • Leeteuk/Eeteuk which means "special", because he's a "special guy" Heechul gave him the nickname "Peter Pan" (because he's an angel, and Peter Pan flies~) though it seems rarely used. 
  • As a leader, he is very responsible. He is a very caring person and he takes care of the members extremely well. He is also the type of person who is easily to cry. 

     
  • He loves his members so much that he couldn't stand watching any of them in pain.
  • He always put everyone else before himself. When 4 members of Super Junior got into an accident in 2007, Leeteuk was badly injured around his right eye and his lower back. He hardly saw anything as his right eye was covered in blood, but even though he felt pain and he thought he would die any second, he still remember about his dongsengs(younger brothers). He called out for Kyuhyun's name as he was being carried into the ambulance. The scene was very touching.
  • Everyone now knows that it's hard for Leeteuk to accept newbies. Therefore, when Kyuhyun first got into the group back in 2006, it was hard for Leeteuk accept him. The members bullied Kyuhyun for like 6 months, Leeteuk told him to cook an instant noodle once, but because Kyuhyun can't cook and he had never cook before, it turned out really bad. Leeteuk who was not satisfied got really angry at him.  

    This was when Kyuhyun had to fill Eunhyuk's spot in Sukira and became a DJ for a day with Leeteuk
  • Though Leeteuk disliked Kyuhyun before, now they are really close. Both of them are very childish xD

     
  • Leeteuk got Lasik eye surgery before debut(2005) but he still wears glasses for fashion.
  • Leeteuk and Eunhyuk have their own radio show called, 'Kiss the radio' (sukira for short), that's why they are really close to each other. Leeteuk and Eunhyuk even do MC-ing together a lot in many different shows. 

    Leeteuk carried Kyuhyun(youngest) on his back as they performed their song :)
    Leeteuk carrying Donghae on his back :) how sweeet ^^
  • Leaders from other Idol groups are very respectful towards Leeteuk, not only because Leeteuk and the others members are seniors but also because Leeteuk is a very good leader. No one had ever imagined of leading 13 boys, treating them well, teaching them how to be more disciplined , keeping them in order and not forget to mention, keeping them safe.  


2. Heechul








  • Heechul is the second oldest in Super Junior, he was born on July 10, 1983 (just 10 days after Leeteuk was born. Because of this, they are both called the 83-liners)
  • Nicknames : Heenim, Cinderella ( he loves it), Kim Cherry.
  • He's now also 27 years old.
  • Blood type : AB
  • Occupations : Singer, Dancer, Actor, Television Host, MC, DJ and also Model.
  • Heechul, he's very different than Leeteuk. He has a very different personality than everyone else. 
  • Many people say that he's very cold, it can be true sometimes but he is actually quite loving. It's just that he's having a hard time showing it.
  • He loves to act like a girl and he even LOOKS like one when he's wearing a wig. He is the only member in Super Junior, who could just walked into a female bathroom without people yelling at him to go out. But instead, he got yelled once when he went into the male bathroom cause they mistook him as a girl.

    He wore Lady Gaga's outfit once, when he was doing a cover of Lady Gaga's Poker Face. He looked exactly like a girl.

  • Everyone knows that he has a hard time showing his feelings. He loves all his members but he just doesn't know how to show it. He's the type of person who is hard to cry, unless he's just TOO sad. He cried on the stage once, it was after Hangeng left.

  • He blames his blood type for his weird likes. He calls himself Cinderella and loves to imitate Girl's Generation(SNSD)'s Gee, a girl idol group under the same company as Super Junior.
  •  And not forget to mention, Heechul LOVES cats! He once a few cats in their dorm, one of them is Heebum (combination of Heechul & Kibum's name). Heechul LOVES Heebum very much, which makes everyone envy Heebum so much. and also Baengsin^^  Here's a picture of Heebum and a few other cats Heechul own.

    3. Hangeng (Hankyung)





    • Hangeng is the 3rd Oldest member in the group. He was born on February 9, 1984.
    • Nicknames : Eagle, the miracle of 1.3 million, Angel of Hailung Jiang (the place where he's from).
    • He's now 26 years old.
    • Blood type : B
    • Occupations : Singer, Actor & Dancer.
    • Hangeng, what people should know about him is that he's not Korean. He's from China.
    • He was born and raised in China all his life. He came to Korea to persue his dream and succeeded to be one of the guys who are lucky enough to be in the Biggest group in Korea and practically in Asia.

      Hangeng & Heechul's fighting scene in the song, 'Don Don't'
      Hangeng pouring his water onto Heechul.
    • Hangeng is really close to Heechul :) and because his Korean is not very good, the members had to teach him Korean.
    • The members couldn't stop imitating his weird Korean pronunciations and just kept laughing every time he said a word wrong.
    • On shows, most of the MCs would be like, “what? What did he say?” and the members had to explain to them what he was trying to say.

      Members of Super Junior-M, (from left to right) Ryeowook, Chinese member Henry, Kyuhyun, Chinese member Zhoumi, Donghae, Hangeng and Siwon.


    • He was very quiet when he was with all the Super Junior members and always let the others talked and he just kept quiet. But during the promotion of Super Junior-M and as the oldest in Super Junior-M, he became the leader and talked the most.
    • Because they were doing promotions in China and the other 4 Korean members who were also in the sub-group didn't know chinese very well, he practically became the translater. (Only Hangeng, Donghae, Siwon, Kyuhyun and Ryeowook are in Super Junior-M and also two other local members Zhoumi & Henry)
    • When the members were having a hard time saying what they really wanted to say, they would always turned to Hangeng and ran to him for help, which caused a lot of laughter from the Chinese audiences.
    • According to the members of Super Junior-M, Hangeng is a very good leader. They never thought Hangeng to be their leader, because Leeteuk was always leading them wherever they were.
    • After doing promotions in China for months, they members came back to Korea for a week and their first schedule was to be the guests on 'Kiss the radio', Leeteuk and Eunhyuk's radio show. Because it had been a long time since the members had met each other, they had a lot of things to say.  
    • Leeteuk asked the members, how was Hangeng as the leader and they couldn't stop telling him that Hangeng is a good leader and very responsible. Hangeng took care of them very well. He even brought food for the members when they were at their hotels. 
      Hangeng leaning onto Siwon
    • Hangeng had said before that he didn't want the members to feel lonely and tired while in China as they didn't have any family or relatives there, so he tried to make them as happy as possible. Hangeng knew that because he had experienced all those things, he had been living in Korea for years without his family.
    • Unfortunately, in December 2009, he filed a lawsuit against SM Entertainment.

    Articles : “Hageng proposed to the court last December to terminate his contract with his own company, SM Entertainment.”

    • According to the lawsuit, Hangeng did not receive a day of rest since his debut with Super Junior for almost 2 years due to continuous activities and overseas promotions. He also went into detail about his rushed schedules, how he was never able to have a day off even during the times his health was in critical condition.
    • He won the lawsuit exactly one year after, which was on December 2010. He is now going solo in China. Everyone including the members still keep him as a part of Super Junior, cause for all ELFs and also for the members, Super Junior is forever 13. No one can break them down.

    4. Yesung (Jongwoon)


  • Yesung is the 4th Oldest member in the group, he was born on August 24, 1984.
  • Nicknames : Cloud, Artistic Vocal Cords, Singing Yesung and Cheonan Uljjang.
  • He's now 26 years old, just like Hangeng.
  • Blood type : AB
  • Occupations : Singer, Dancers, Actor and DJ.
  • Yesung has a very powerful voice, so he is one of the main vacalists, aside from Ryeowook and Kyuhyun.
  • He also has his own solo songs.
  • His personality is also quite weird by judging from his blood type, just like Heechul.
  • He loves attention. There was one time when they were doing filming, and he talked non-stop for 2 hours straight but ended up getting cut from the show. He was very frustrated.
  • the members had to keep going without Yesung
    Yesung never want anyone his group to suffer without him. Even if he's sick or tired, he wouldn't let his members do something without him there. In 2008, 6 members of Super Junior, Leeteuk, Shindong, Sungmin, Kangin, Eunhyuk and Yesung participated in the 24 hour Hope Marathon. Unfortunately, Yesung had to be sent to the hospital after he collapsed from running 70 kilometers. But then he came back because he couldn't stand and felt so sad seeing his members having a hard time running for hours without him.
    But then he came back, though he was not in the best condition.

    He tried to put on a smile...

    ....but everyone knew that he wasn't feeling well
  • Super Junior members always have so many different schedules to attend, so he sometimes would feel very lonely alone in their dorm. Like Leeteuk & Eunhyuk doing their radio show Kiss the Radio(Sukira), Heechul on his radio show Youngstreet, Shindong on his radio show ShimShimTapa and the other members busy attending many variety shows and events. So one day, he decided to get a turtle as his pet to reduce his loneliness.  
  • But instead of having a friend to play with, he feels more lonely now, as his turtle has never even make any sound. Now he already has three turtles as his pet and he talks to them frequently but until now he still doesn't know the gender of his turtles.

    Yesung's turtles. Ddongkoma, Ddongkomi and Ddongkoming.. *if I'm not mistaken lol
  • After the accident in 2007 happened, Leeteuk(leader) had to be hospitalized for weeks, Yesung promised him that he would take good care of the members and told him not to worry so much. 

    Yesung hugging Eunhyuk & Shindong.
  • He also posted a voice message to Leeteuk and also the other members, his dongsengs (younger brothers - I don't mean by blood) who were involved, Eunhyuk, Shindong and Kyuhyun. Yesung posted a message to Kyuhyun (the youngest) who was in coma, telling him to stay strong. Yesung told him that he loves him and he would never get angry again even if Kyuhyun fools around or makes fun of him. He told Kyuhyun to get up, as he cried his eyes out, which made everyone felt touched.

  • Yesung was not that talkative in talk shows sometimes but when he did talk or said a word, people would automatically burst out laughing by his antic side.

  • The only sub-group of Super Junior that Yesung's in is Super Junior-KRY (Kyuhyun, Ryewook, Yesung). All the lead vocals of Super Junior are in the sub-group. Though, Kyuhyun and Ryeowook are also in Super Junior-M. 

     
  • Yesung is very close to his mother. His mother always took care of the member very well when she came to visit. She even kissed them good night.

5. Kangin (youngwoon)



     
     
  • Kangin is the 5th Oldest member in the group, he was born in January 17, 1985.

  • He's now 25 years old.
  • Blood type : O
  • Occupations : Singer, Dancer, Actor, Television Host, MC and DJ.
  • Kangin is known to be the strongest member in the group.
  • He might looks scary (what people say) by judging to his tough body, but he's actually really sweet. Very nice too. 

     
  • His smile can melt millions of hearts and he's also quite sensitive. He cries easily when it comes to the members. He cried when Donghae talked about his father. He cried when Kyuhyun sang the song 'A whole new world' on a show called Star King with Charice Pempenco back in 2007. Kyuhyun wasn't fully recovered after the accident but he did quite well cause Kangin to shed some tears.

  • Kangin loves to joke around and makes fun of his members in shows.
  • Even though, he's the type of person, who's sometimes hard to handle, he listens well to Leeteuk. 
    Kangin showing his love for Kyuhyun to the fans.
  • Kangin got mad easily sometimes, that's why the members are all afraid of him. The only members you can beat him is Kyuhyun, not physically though.
  • You should try taping him onto his bed by using sellotapes, then pour water onto his face when he is half asleep, then see if he's angry or not lol. The members did this before when they were in Kangin's hotel room in Thailand, it was hard to wake him up, so they came up with this idea and Leeteuk did his signature water screen. Kangin got really angry and literally kicked all of them xD
  • He once said, I like roses, ones with sharp thorns. pretty to look at but hurts to touch, that's like me. i'm pretty to look at but when people try to touch me..” 

    Kangin playing with Leeteuk's hair and jokes around
  • People always say when there's a caring mother, there's always a strict father. Kangin is like the strict father for the members, while Leeteuk being the caring mother.
  • Kangin always ignored his illness just so that he could be on stage with the members. He's a very kind-hearted guy and very sweet too.
  • Sadly, he's currently in the army right now for 2 years. He went for the army last year, so he'll be back by next year.

         6. Shindong

  • Nicknames : Dolpan Ogyupsal (a type of food).
  • He's now 25 years old.
  • Blood type : O
  • Occupations : Singer, Dancer, Actor, MC and DJ.
  • By judging from his appearance, you should already know that Shindong is the heaviest member in the group xD But what most people don't usually know is that he's one of the greatest dancer of the group, aside from Eunhyuk and Donghae, and also Hangeng.
  • He is a very friendly type of person. He always lightened up the mood and makes people laugh. Yesung also mentioned in his voice message for Shindong to recover faster, cause without Shindong, no one can lightened up the mood like he does.
  • Shindong is also very caring of his member and very polite to others.
  • Though people always think that he's not that good-looking like the other members, but they are wrong. He's very cute when he smiles. He can even cheers people up with it.
