After debuting in 2005, Super Junior rose to global fame with its smash hit “Sorry Sorry” in 2009.
Originally a 13-to 15-member group at its peak, only seven of the group’s main members will participate in the upcoming album. Members Ryeowook and Kyuhyun are serving their military service, while Kangin and Sungmin are on a break.
Kangin was involved in drunk driving incidents, while fans had demanded that Sungmin leave the group as they had felt neglected by him after his marriage.
