OMONA THEY DID(N&#39;T)!

I know... It's so bizarre. Like they're right there, you can see them but they're treated like part of the crew or something. Like how much effort would it be to put a little nametag on the bottom of the screen saying Zhou Mi/Henry - member of Super Junior-M?

Yeah, good taste, that goes without saying but Kyuhyun was staring right back. Once he got his eyes on it, he just wouldn't look away. I've never seen him like that:)

Well you better check out the other one then 'cause in that one Henry and Zhoumi are included, introduced and kind of interviewed as well. Which makes the decision to cut them out of the first one all the more strange and unnecessary...

From:

i enjoyed the Mbc one narrated by Kangin...more Donghae plus Henry and MiMi were included.

i look forward to seeing the rest of the MBC/Kangin one, i want it to include more behind the scenes stuff.....aka more Donghae. yes i'm shameless, sue me.

From:

I just want them to include Ai Se Eu Te Pego in the next episode. That song and Kyuhyun's voice are my new OTP.

From:

yes!!! i really thought they would have included it for the Brazil episode...maybe they will for one of the later SA countries highlight. i really enjoyed that fancam. i wonder if they plan a documentary like this for the rumored London and Paris shows?

From:

It kinda makes it seem like ep. 2 will contain more stages from Brazil so I'm really really keeping my fingers crossed. wantitwantitwantit....

As for Europe, I doubt it. It won't be a first(!) anymore since they've already performed in Paris and others in London...

From:

we can always hope. =)

From:

I watched as much as I could until my Flash plugin crashed. I hate seeing Henry always shrinking out of the frame. Kangin has a nice voice though.

I wish I could put a big sign up in space that said WE LOVE YOU HENRY AND MIMI.

I'm sure you also saw the picture Henry retweeted where fans drew stick Henry and Zhou Mi figures on a Super Show ad... fans have it right. It sickens me because I continue to feel that SM could stop this if it wanted to, but never does.

From:

It makes me wonder what the point of having SJM or bringing Chinese members on was if they were going to be treated like this, with Geng needing to leave for his own health and sanity and HenMi always off to one side.

I know fans will always have something to bitch about but at least if SM made a statement it'd be good for HenMi and for fans to point to when the bitching goes down - SM SAID they're permanent, so STFU. Henry has revealed some of his feelings during his promotions, but the both of them have so much doubt in their faces and their actions - like they're not so popular and maybe don't have any fans of their own - and it's not fair to put people through that.

I've had a contract job before where from week to week they couldn't definitively tell us if we'd have a job at the end of the month, in 3 months, by the following year, etc. and I wonder if that's what it's like for them? Like they have their impermanence hanging over their heads at all times? I don't know.

From:

Just wanted to say that that twitlonger text is really lovely. Yeah. That's it.

From:

"I wish I could put a big sign up in space that said WE LOVE YOU HENRY AND MIMI."
I was having the exact same thoughts while watching the docu Kyu narrated. Maybe I'd do something like that if I ever got the chance to go to one of their concerts.

I've begun fantasizing about a big internet fan project of some sort... I don't know what it'd be or what we'd do, but just to gather all the Mitangs/Strings/ inclined individuals for a mass response.

From:

That would be cool. The dream would be to have the international and Korean fandom cooperate on this for maximum reach and visibility, and to have it both be a message to Henry and MiMi as well as SM. But that's a tall order, of course.

From:

Yes. The most difficult part would have to be the i-fans communicating with the k-fans imho.

From:

Hm, I mainly feel like the most difficult thing would be making the first step?? Idk, I sort of refuse to believe that everyone couldn't get over this childish competitive/prejudiced crap if it was for such a good cause. But due to all this stuff there are no real communication 'paths' (?) between these parts of the fandom, and that makes everything a little more difficult.

From:

Oh, and Taiwan/Chinese fans too ofc.

Would it be a language barrier issue, an influence issue (who do we contact for the most impact), or an attitude issue (is there mistrust/antipathy between i and k-fans despite the fact that we stan the same people)?

From:

I thought about it being a language barrier problem for a second but I dismissed that idea pretty quickly b/c honestly I think there'd be people of Korean descent who learned it as (one of) their mother tongue(s) willing to do some translating/negotiating (or possibly people who study Korean).
I think the other two points are much more pressing: Who do we contact, since there are so many fansites and initiatives and who would consequently take over the lead since someone has to do it (at least to a degree) in a project of this potential size.
And the antipathy; well I said I don't want to accept it but I guess the more realistic approach, especially if a lot of people get involved, is that this sort of rivalry/arrogance exists. Maybe it wouldn't cause problems in the initial phase b/c it seems to me that when a few people communicate about cool stuff like that everything is always more relaxed but as soon as more people get involved, even if only passively, there may be misunderstandings or inconsiderate remarks, etc.
It's really tricky and I think a lot of thought would have to go into that before it even goes into the collaboration stage.

From:

oh random...
as i was watching the MBC/Kangin one...

i had to stop for a moment, "why is there a yoga video in a Super Junior show" i thought...only to realize it was Zhoumi in a handstand.

From:

i watched the one in Latin America and i feel like shit bc i didn't realise zhoumi and henry weren't showed. Then again I was too stressed trying to see if i was in the footage or not lmao
