Who is Super Junior?

Super Junior (Korean: 슈퍼주니어), often referred to as SJ or SuJu (슈주), is a popular boy group from South Korea formed by SM Entertainment in 2005. With a total of 13 members, they are one of the largest boy bands in the world. The group consists of leader Leeteuk, Heechul, Hangeng, Yesung, Kangin, Shindong, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Siwon, Donghae, Ryeowook, Kibum and Kyuhyun. Henry Lau and Zhou Mi are the only two members in the group whom are not official parts of Super Junior but are considered trainees. The Chinese member, Han Geng, was chosen from three thousand applicants via auditions held in China by SM Entertainment in 2001. As of 2010, only 10 members are active, due to Hangeng’s lawsuit against SM Entertainment, Kangin’s leave of absence for mandatory military service and Kibum’s pursuit of an acting career. However, the remaining members have insisted that they are still part of the group.
