The boys lived up to their image as 'hip hop idols', as they're quite the rambunctious bunch with a lot to say.

We prepare phrases that we’ll say to fans from each country at every concert. At this concert in France, I said in French, “I saw the picture of you protesting for us to hold another concert. After seeing you guys in person, you are much prettier.” Like this, I think our weapon is our friendliness to communicate with our fans frequently. (Super Junior’s Leeteuk)Super Junior is a team that was made with the concept of the gateway of Asian super star. But their popularity has spread in Europe and South America and not just Asia. They are leading the new Hallyu wave.
I met with Super Junior’s two members Leeteuk(28) and Eunhyuk(25) who successfully finished the concert in Paris at the SM Entertainment building in Chungdam, Seoul on June 21. They have a total of 10 members, but they are busy doing their own individual schedule that only time they would gather together is when they are doing a concert overseas. The two members were busy recording their next album.
“We had received much popularity from Asia and done a lot of activities there, but it felt like a festival with just us. But when we did the concert in Paris, the response was different. It is definitely motivating us.” Leader Leeteuk talked about his feeling on finishing the concert in Paris. He added, “I feel proud that our culture was re-exported to a culturally powerful nation.”
To Super Junior, the expansion into the world has become a new momentum. Their expansion into the world market has changed the duration of popularity of idols who normally could not have maintained their popularity over 5 years. It has been 6 years since they debuted and with their concert in Paris on the 10th, they are being assessed as the idol group that’s opening a new horizon of Hallyu.
“For the last 3 years, we held Super Show all over Asia.” We are planning to include Europe, South America, and the Middle East into our world tour. I heard that there was a protest in Turkey recently for us to perform there.”
Super Junior are already super stars in Asia. Their song “Miinah” has been number one for 55 weeks on a music chart in Taiwan. Eunhyuk was the first foreigner to be the permanent guest on a radio program in Taiwan. In Asia, they are not foreign singers that only some fans recognize. They are so famous that they even get recognized by people on the street.
“There is a phrase that with ice cream, there’s fun in picking a flavor. With our team, we have various members that our fans are diverse. Various colors can be shown in one team such as a friend who sings well, a friend who’s handsome, a friend who dances well, and a friend who’s funny.”
Leeteuk explained that Super Junior are not just idol singers and that they are the compilation of a variety of cultural contents. When a member lacks in something, that part is filled by another member creating a synergy effect.
Eunhyuk chose friendliness as Super Junior’s strength. Previous idols were handsome and they were mysterious, someone who you could only meet on stage. Idols nowadays are actively appearing on TV and are working hard to be close to their fans. They explained that it is the reason why they regularly appear on variety shows.
SNS such as Youtube, Twitter, and Facebook which has been the driving force behind the Hallyu wave works to spread their friendliness and image and not just music all over the world.
“All of our members do Twitter. There are online translation services now that we can communicate with fans overseas right away. I speak some Chinese so I write in Chinese sometimes. When I went to the concert in Paris, I worried that there won’t be a lot of fans at the airport. So I wrote on Twitter about it a lot.

2PM Interview at Cosmopolitan July Issue
Q. 2PM’s 2nd regular album is finally coming out. I’ve heard that your opinions were taken into consideration while making the concept for this album. What kind of concept is that?
Junho: Since all our concepts up to now have been rather dark, we personally became depressed with it as well. It was also hard to keep on showing the dark impression on stage as well. I’m talking about Hearbeat, Without U or I’ll be Back. So we gathered members’ opinions that for this album it would be great to shake off the dark image, and we relayed it to Jinyoungie-hyung.
Taecyeon: This time the concept is very far from the beastly-man one. Rather than coming forth with the beastly image, we’re going to show the image of men who are enjoying themselves. It’s an honour that we’re called the beastly idols, but I think it’s inevitable that one day we would suffocate with this kind of image, so this time we’re going to show our original selves, who can have fun and enjoy the music.
Wooyoung: If you take a look at the lyrics of our previous releases, most of them are sad love songs with an overall dark atmosphere. However, it’s been hard for us to fully express the aspects of such concept, because we don’t have a great experience of sad break-ups behind us. So we wanted to show the things we’re probably the best at. If we were to show us having fun, we would enjoy it and so would our fans. This way our performance would be even more truthful. I want to become one with the fans while having fun with them.
Nichkhun: That’s right. During our “I’ll Be Back” promotion days, I had an opportunity to go and see Psy senior’s performance, and he looked so free just enjoying the stage over there. We also wanted to show that kind of performance. The kind of performance where we all get excited just by having fun on stage.
Junsu: As far as this time is concerned we are sure going to have fun. You’ll understand it once you see the stage, but you will be able to witness the appearance of 2PM who are properly having fun. Please look forward to it!
Chansung: It would be great if it wouldn’t be just us freely having fun, and that our performance didn’t seem forced onto other people. I want to produce a kind of stage where this having fun would fit naturally. And, honestly speaking, I don’t know if it’s ok to say so, but even though we really enjoyed preparing this album, I don’t really care whether it’s going to be a hit or not. From the company’s perspective we’d be in trouble. But we’re already satisfied enough, because we managed to do the job well in good spirits.
Taecyeon: What are you talking about? It’s definitely not like that. It must be successful. We’re definitely going to be successful with this album!
Q. 1000 days since your debut. This time for 2PM was also full of great deals dangerous as infectious diseases. What kind of impact for 2PM was left after the affair in 2010?Junho: You’re talking about the leader’s withdrawal, right? It would be a lie to say it didn’t poison our group. It felt like everything was filtered through and through. Should I say that it was like filtering all the impurities out? It felt like getting a total renewal. So in a sense it strengthened the ties between the members. If you look at it that way, the former affair could be considered as a medicine for us as well.
Junsu: It was very hard. I just think of that as of an unpleasant memory. It was a time when everyone was working so hard, but we were very worried and scared of what the people’s reaction might me.
Nichkhun: I think that time was an opportunity for us to learn a lot. What people are ought to be thinking, and what kind of actions are not accepted well.
Taecyeon: It’s not like we’ve become very comfortable with it yet, because these were really hard times. However, we managed to overcome it, because we stayed together.
Wooyoung: Back then it was so sad, shocking and absolutely not funny. Everyone felt the same, and we had a talk that we should work harder in order to be able to laugh and smile again in the future. We said that we had to get stronger and don’t make emphasis on separate team work. But it felt like we grew to depend on each other even more. No matter how you look at it, we managed to turn the misfortune to our advantage.
Q. What is 2PM’s final goal?Taecyeon: To become even more successful. Receiving love from more people and recognition for the music that 2PM makes.
Wooyoung: Our goal is to keep on developing further, so that with every oncoming album the evaluation from the public would get better and better and so that people would not be able to nag.
Nichkhun: So therefore, I think that 2PM’s 2nd regular album has to be successful for the exact same goal. But we can’t do anything but wait for the results, after having done our best, because it is not our decision to make.
Junho: Right now it’s been almost 3 years since our debut. All the senior singers say that after your 3rd year you start thinking a lot. Because it’s a time when you might be having a lot of other thoughts, and also become weary. So I think that when these moments come, we need to have an honest talk and move towards the right direction. 2PM has to go on until the very end. Because we have a common goal we need to achieve together!
Junsu: That’s right. Even though every single member might have personal activities in the future, the group 2PM itself is not going to disappear, because all 6 members share the same feelings and the same visions about the future.
