 Leeteuk and Siwon on CNN's Talk Asia. A little clip was posted before, but now here is the full interview, with beautiful dubbing for the boys.

Leeteuk mostly talks but Siwon chirps in every now and then  It's a Super Junior interview foremost, but it's also from CNN talking about kpop in a broad sense so I recommend non-elfs to watch it too. =)))

Oh Yesung. ♥

After Siwon says he wants to be a missionary...
Interviewer: Really?!
Siwon: Yeah!

LOL... oh, Shisus. I wish you spoke more Engrish in the interview.

[anconeous.livejournal.com]

This! I guess Teukie and Siwon were basically talking about THEIR anti-fans. Then again, SNSD anti-fans are a whole other level compared to boyband anti-fans.

[anconeous.livejournal.com]

Aaaawww! I loved what Teukie said when Anna asked about what they would do if they break up. He really does have a way with words.

"Groups usually break up after 5 years because they want to go their own ways. For Super Junior, it was more like we started while we were going our own ways, so I don't think "break up" really fits us. I expect we stay intact while we all go do our own thing, and I think the brand value of the group will continue to grow." <3

LOL at Siwon's random English. "We pleasure..." LMAO.

[lee-chikin.livejournal.com]

He was incredibly sweet. I am always amazed with the good job he does being the leader. I love Teukie Umma.

"In the beginning it was all about carving out a good body." So Swion chisled his abs out?

LOL WHY ARE PICTURES OF ONEW AND JONGHYUN IN THE BACKROUND XDDD /dead.

[dori-liv.livejournal.com]

what did Leeteuk say in answer to the 'are either of you dating' question?

[kaylaa7x.livejournal.com]

he said " uhhhh *laughs awkwardly* no comment" haha

[headswillroll88.livejournal.com]

Siwon WOULD want to become a missionary. The guy who did the voice over for him was cracking me up.

[doumyoujitsukas.livejournal.com]

FUCK YEAH SUPER JUNIOR M. ♥

[splendidlure.livejournal.com]

the interviewer pronounced "anti" weird.

[imaginetears.livejournal.com]

Depends on your accent. The way Americans say it makes me squirm (I'm English) :)

[autumn-thunder.livejournal.com]

why do i always miss these things on tv >___>

I'm very impressed with this interview, there were a lot of good questions, and teuk and siwon answered them really well. :3
Seriously, these boys just keep giving me more and more reasons to love them. ♥

[kawaiiairbender.livejournal.com]

D: yt isn't working for me

OMG Siwon wants to become a missionary! I always thought he did, maybe we'll run into each other one day :)

they were talking about human trafficking? I really want to watch this, ht is an issue close to my heart.

you can watch it here, if it's more convenient for you.

[rosamajalis.livejournal.com]

lmao
Siwon, you smarmy bugger, of course you would say something about breaking into the Australian music scene to an Australian reporter.
Anna, I lubs you for this.

*heart fills with joy*

i enjoyed watching this and the failed attempt at english! will watch again after i study more for finals!

good job leeteuk and siwon in speaking about your group and thoughts about everything! i LOVED it!

thank you so much for sharing this!

[831panda831.livejournal.com]

omg siwon hhahaha dying , "THATS IT!?"

shisus acts cute xD

[raiknii.livejournal.com]

How is suju an innovative band? No offense meant (I kinda like them) and I haven't watched the interview, but their concept is basically a momusu ripoff.

[raiknii.livejournal.com]

(Of course momusu is a ripoff of older j-pop acts too.)

[imanat.livejournal.com]

This was a rather bipolar ordeal, I was reading the news on the bottom of the screen while they were talking which was depressing most of the time and then I laugh at few seconds later at the interview. XD

Also, lol @ Shindong's "C..N..N?...hiiii~"

[kawaiiairbender.livejournal.com]

siwon is too corny. loling at him forever
leeteuk is dating :D <3

I love that they did something in support of fighting human trafficking.

[luvey.livejournal.com]

teuk is dating, where does he find the time?

[luvey.livejournal.com]

lol oh donghae and your CNN hello in engrish. you so need to speak more engrish.

cause i can't edit

[luvey.livejournal.com]

ya know i'm really surprised Siwon wasn't one of the ones filmed for the human trafficking thing or went to Haiti (instead of Donghae) or something along those lines if being a missionary and helping others is eventually his goal. i mean i know he's not a UNICIEF ambassador....but still


and teuk please let me know where you find the time to date. how do you steal that extra time in the day?

[justhyuu.livejournal.com]

NO, WE PLEASURE.

[ladyofthetide.livejournal.com]

LOLING FOREVER.

[byronsbitch.livejournal.com]

That was interesting to watch. The interviewer was friendly and it wasn't awkward at all which I thought it would be.

lol @ the dating question, Leeteuk busted.
