Sorry it took me so long to put this up, pseudo_tsuga! D-did I really work on this on and off for 3 months? YES I DID. OTL Actually, there were some days I'd sit here staring at the blinking cursor on this wordpad file thinking: I should keep it brief right? I might look crazy putting so much in. But if I keep it short I won't be able to mention this or this or this! WHY AM I SO WORRIED OVER A PRIMER ABOUT AN ASIAN BOY BAND ALJDFLDJFDLFJLDJ

I am too much of a perfectionist okay. Also, it legit took me like 2 days just to gather the photos I wanted, and then code all the thumbnails, etc. Again: perfectionism at its worst!

With this primer I tried to give as unbiased a view of Super Junior as I could. I wanted to give as much information on each person and their personality without being overwhelming. Although its probably easy to tell which members I follow more than others. I left out talk about pairings that fandom has for Suju, but if anyone would like to hear my thoughts on so-and-so pairing I'd be happy to do so in another post.

But if you have anything to ask about Suju, please let me know! Or if you just want to hear random facts about a certain member I can tell you about Kyuhyun's big booty /eraser butt or how Ryeowook spins around when he's drunk or how Heechul gives everyone the last name "Kim" when he doesn't remember their real ones or a whole bunch of other things. I sometimes feel like my own search engine since I have so many random facts stored up in my head.

Anyway, thank you for taking the time to read this primer of mine. ♥

pseudo_tsuga said I should be a good unnie and take responsibility for pulling her into dark side of Super Junior. So here is the primer on them I promised I'd put together.



Super Junior is a South Korean idol group/boy band that debuted in 2005. They have 15 members--well, officially the number is less, with two members being more honorary/guest members (for reasons I'll explain later) in one of their sub-groups, and one having parted ways with their label SM Entertainment. Although I like to say there are 15 for sentimental reasons.

They originally started out as Super Junior 05 (the 05 indicating the year, 2005) with the intention for new members to come in after older members "graduated" (they began like a rotational group à la Morning Musume), but this was quickly changed once they gained a large popularity. They've released four Korean studio albums (Super Junior05, Don't Don, Sorry Sorry, and BONOMANA), have branched out into four sub-groups and have performed three concert tours known as Super Shows.

Super Junior--commonly abbreviated to Suju or SJ--are pretty much the biggest group of dorks ever. They sing and dance, they act, MC, model, star in variety shows, they do so much! They've even had their own movie Attack on the Pin-up Boys.

Sapphire Blue is their official color, and their fanclub is known as ELF, Ever Lasting Friends
