Wook: I wanted to become a bird
Yeye: You can still do it. It's made possible with bungee jumping and sky diving

become a designer because I studied art for a while. And after that, I
wanted to become a sports reporter, but look at me now, I ended up
becoming a singer.
Sungmin: I'm not gifted with special talent, so everyone called me a "practice freek"
Yeye: as for Sungmin, he didn't miss a single day over the 5 years of
training before his debut, I think it was his diligence that shaped him
the way he is today.
Q: Current Interest?
Sungmin: I'm interested with only one thing these days. Shindong became
interested in golf recently so it's really fun playing golf
Wook: recently, I became interested in travelling. I'd like to go backpacking through Europe

it is Super Junior that makes each step of my dream possible

go of thins career. I'd wish to work diligently and consistently with

Wook: For everyone, nurture your dreams. Keep reminding yourself "I can
do it. I can do it." Then you really can do it. If you continue to work
hard and don't give up, you won't become the second or third super
junior, but become the number one on your own. These will come the day
when you become number one.
Sungmin: Be the only one.
Siwon: I notice color everywhere. I ask what the colors are and I
critique on my own like, "I don't think this color works with that one."

collecting candles. I enjoy the candle scents more than anything.
Q: Memorable episodes?

felt I was a member of this team and that this team will become a
useful tool in the world, I felt inspired and excited. I still remember
that moment.
Q: What do you wish to do in the future?

Hae: Seriously!

and situations are not met yet. The world tour, our goal and dream! We
will definitely make this dream come true so we can meet the fans all
around the world.
Q: What does Super Junior mean to you?
Siwon: Super Junior is a source of energy to Donghae. To me, Super Junior is the best friend. It's like an army comrade.

resolutions from the time you decided to become a singer.

become more intimate as growing old together...
