Louise: well, actually it was poll no.12, the 11th was our research about the readers age group (which showed us that most of you are around 15-18, if i’m not mistaken. a big envy factor here with your youthful for us the young and beauty ahjummas over 20)

pollllllllllllllllllllllllllllll.JPG

Louise: what was the last thing i heard about Henry?hmmm….that he was going to be added to Super Junior China? well, better be not. it must be hard for him to sing while playing the violin AND dancing (you know, even lipsync and dancing without playing an instrument needs good coordination between the lips and the feet. Now how can he handle lips, feet and chin at the same time?it must be hard to move your mouth when there’s a wood keep knocking on your chin. oh not to mention  squeezing your brain to remember the chinese words to match your mouth and the recorded song. pffuih!!*wiping my forehead* Henry must have a good pay for this job)

see what our staff Jennifer found :

Super Junior Fans Protest Against Addition of New Member
25/10/2007

After Super Junior’s agent company SM Entertainment announced a plan for adding a new member (Henry) to Super Junior, fans immediately objected and formed a silent protest. At 4:00 PM on Wednesday afternoon (October 24th), over 270 high school and college students swarmed towards SM Entertainment’s building and formed a “Against Adding a New Member to Super Junior Joint Committee.”

Wearing surgical masks, holding signs that plastered “13″ all over the board, sitting in straight lines, they silently protested against the action. Some raised signs and said, “SJ ONLY 13″ and “SM what do you want?” and other similar words.

Nearby there was a huge sign hanging from a tree, with the words, “We are not naive children causing trouble. We are guarding the treasured courage. My name is FAN.” It took well over $1000 won to create the sign.

When SM created Super Junior, they publicized the group with the tagline, “The gate towards stardom in Asia” and stated that this group is a project group with an uncertain amount of members. Currently Super Junior has 13 members, but this was not what the fans want.

According to one of the protesters, although Super Junior was originally a project group, after the release of single “U” last year in June, SM announced through the media that Super Junior will stay as a permanent group. Therefore having plans to add the Chinese Henry and debuting Super Junior-China is lying to the fans.

Another student said, “We do not want Henry or anyone else to be added in Super Junior. We want Super Junior to be a safe 13-membered group. We support Super Junior to target overseas markets, but not with Henry. Henry was not originally a Super Junior member. We will protect Super Junior’s name.” She also added, “We’ve started the protest on the 21st and at that time we had over 400 people. We’ve also sent many messages to SM about the situation, but they did not reply. We will continue to protest until SM gives us an official answer.”

For this, SM said, “We never stated that Super Junior was a permanent group. The fans had it misunderstood. Super Junior was formed as a gate to stardom in Asia, therefore our Chinese trainees like Han Kyung were added.”

They also added, “With the formation of Super Junior-China and doing activities overseas, more people will recognize Super Junior and it will help the group create a greater popularity. We hope fans will continue to support Super Junior.”

On another side, some 50 people supported Super Junior to have an extra member, and held signs with words, “We support Henry’s addition,” to create more controversy.

Future activities of Super Junior and fans’ interaction will be closely followed by the media.

ShenYue: So all this time EVEN Suju been thinking they are not a PROJECT GROUP and are settled!!!! WOW .. SM is really something!

We found one of the members of E.L.F on Z-degree and she spoke out … <<<<<< THIS IS NOT US TALKING <<<<<< IT's A MEMEBER OF E.L.F!!!!!>>>>>>>>>

slineteuk: I’m a very devoted fan of Super Junior and only Super Junior.
I’m a member of their official fan club and i really think fans over here don’t know anything about them.
they all think fans in korea are crazy and so mean to henry…
um.. i don’t think so

SM entertainment is trying to put in Henry, a Chinese trainee that featured in Suju’s song, “Don’t Don”
as superjunior’s 14th member…

WE HAVE NOTHING AGAINST HENRY… we just think he’s a puppet for SM to play with…
He’s very talented and has a lot of opportunities since he’s only 19
so is there a reason that he NEEDS to be put in superjunior?
we’re willing to support him if he goes solo…
but we’ll be his worst anti-fans the moment he joins superjunior
WE LOVE SUPERJUNIOR, NOT HENRY..
and we only love 13 members
plus.. the 14th place belongs to us, E.L.F.

some people are saying “it’s the same thing as when kyuhyun came in.. stop being so serious”
IT’S NOT THE SAME THING AS KYUHYUN OPPA JOINING SUJU!!!
E.L.F. was created AFTER kyuhyun oppa came in
and superjunior was a project group then, meaning that members could be changed
and the group could be separated any time SM wants it
but they’ve declared SuperJunior as an official group now
and they’re breaking a promise with us

and people who say those stuff… you’re not even suju’s fan then..
E.L.F. went through all the tough times with 13 members
we celebrated their anniversaries with 13 members
we voted till dawn on mnet so 13 members could be happy when winning 1st place
we cried with 13 members when they won MKMF award
with the 14th member… we’re not so sure if we’d like to do those things
for “super junior”
maybe for the 13 members
but not for “super junior”

AND WE PROTESTED ON 10.21.07 INFRONT OF SM BUILDING
TO STOP 14TH MEMBER FROM COMING IN
SOME OF YOU MIGHT THINK I’M BEING SO NEGATIVE..BUT
IT’S THE TRUTH… LEE SOOMAN WANTS MONEY
HE DOESN’T CARE ABOUT SUPERJUNIOR OR SOME BOYBANDS..[/size]

AND HIS PLAN IS TO MAKE
SUPERUNIOR A BRANDNAME
AND MAKE LOTS OF GROUPS WITH SOME SUJU MEMBERS+SM TRAINEE IN EACH…

IF HENRY JOINS, MORE+MORE PEOPLE WILL JOIN SUPERJUNIOR
AND THEY’LL SEPARATE WHEN IT GETS TOO LARGE…
THAT’S WHAT SM’S TRYING TO DO RIGHT NOW
SO THEY CAN GO WITH THEIR “brandname” PLAN AS STATED ABOVE…
DO YOU WANT TO REPLACE SUJU WITH HENRY?!?
all he cares about is money…
he doesn’t know how many fans have cried their day away because of him…

we really love them and don’t call us crazy just because you don’t understand.

now about yelling 13 during perfs…
a lot of people think it’s rude to henry
and think we’re hurting his feelings….
so what?
maybe i’m being a little bit mean here
but to protect superjunior from separating so soon
we’re going to do anything that takes us…
i mean.. do you know how much we love them?
do you know that they’re the reason we live and eat?
we’re happy about the fact that we breathe under the same sky as them
and you’re calling us mean because we’re trying to protect them?
as i said above
we have NOTHING against henry. just SM ENTERTAINMENT AND THAT LEE SOOMAN
13+1=0

we’re people who can only count till 13
we have no reason to live without them
14th member means end to super junior….
NUMBER 13 IS SPECIAL TO US IN EVERY WAYS
AND WE’RE NOT GOING TO LET SM LET HENRY JOIN

this isn’t just a rumour….

lee soo man’s serious about this “brandname” plan…

so please… please…think before you post a hateful comment towards E.L.F.
