The members of Super Junior made a recent appearance on MBC’s Chuseok special, “Radio Star Super Show,” and revealed their honest thoughts on the controversies surrounding Kangin and Hankyung (Hangeng).
Super Junior stated, “When Kangin first became involved in an assault case, we thought that we needed to shield him and protect him. Kangin showed that he was sorry to us and really did reflect that on his actions, but we couldn’t help but feel a sense of betrayal when one month later, he became involved in another drunk driving accident.”
They went on to state, “But we believed that we are all one, so we tried to protect him as much as possible. They say that time is medicine, and as time passed, our feelings softened up as well.”
The members also confessed their feelings on fellow member Hankyung’s decision to terminate his contract with SM Entertainment.
“We still can’t get in contact with Hankyung. We were all very close with him but we are unable to contact him separately. We honestly felt disappointed when reports said that his life in Korea was difficult and that the Super Junior members didn’t take care of him.”
Leader Lee Teuk continued, “It would’ve been nice if he discussed his problems with the members first because we honestly had no idea. None of us ever thought that Hankyung would act like that.”
The members all agreed by stating, “We still miss Hankyung right now.”
Lee Teuk concluded, “We leave an empty space for Hankyung. My one dream is to stand on stage with all 13 of us and perform before I leave for the army. I hope for it to happen.”

Netizens commented, “Whenever something bad happens, members are afraid to speak the truth on broadcasts. I like that they’re being honest.,” “I miss Hankyung as well,” and “Super Junior shines the brightest when it’s 13.”

Date: 2010-09-23 07:48 pm (UTC)i dont know whether to trust these translations or not.
i hv to admit that chinese press sometimes exaggerates too much (rmmber when they made up stories of Gege and Siwon acting in Gossip Girl remake and they said wonnie used gege?)
its not like they didnt meet and contact at all. like leeteuk said, they couldnt contact with Hangeng separately. heechul is the only one that made it tho since both him and gege said it in the past shows. so that proves although as a group they did contact each other
oh by chinese tabloids?

Date: 2010-09-23 09:05 pm (UTC)About the Hangeng clip: I find it telling that Donghae, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun, who were in SJM, stayed quiet through this whole segment. I don't think anyone is trying to be dishonest or anything, I think everyone is trying to do their best in this very difficult situation. I can imagine how awkward it must be to discuss your follow member's lawsuit.

Date: 2010-09-23 07:58 pm (UTC)Don't know if many people are keeping up with Geng news separately but he's stated that he still keeps in touch with at least some of the members. Not just Heechul, but also Siwon and I think Ryeowook too.
Who to believe, the man under a contract with a company known for careful PR or the man who is essentially his own boss?
