Are there any Super Junior Fans here?

haven't noticed any ELF activity here tbh even though there is a large 2nd gen fan base in the forum.

I think they are considered controversial nowadays (which I only partially get), but are there at least any fans of their music here?

Quote from firemonster246

I like some of their songs but that's it

I mean, I like nearly all of their title tracks, but I only have bothered to check out a few of their bsides.

So I am also not really a fan, but it is crazy how there seem to be none here in the forum xD

Quote from Bpsosoro

There is ripia.

that is maybe not the kind of company i looked for xD

Quote from blingyblinger

Some of them seem alright like Donghae, Eunhyuk, and Ryeowook but I more just listen to their music casually

Super Junior DE also has some good music

Growing Pains is in my top 20 kpop songs of all time

Quote from sunilevol

I like most of their title tracks.

I still jam to U and No Other.

No Other is such a banger, it was one of the first songs I listened to when I decided to leave my SNSD/Nu'est/BTS bubble.

Quote from blingyblinger

I really adore Growing Pains It's so soft and melancholic

It is so criminally good, I think I need to reconsider and might have to put it as my favourite boygroup song of all time...

Quote from Pinky_Peachy

I used to be the biggest fan and I'm still a casual fan of the group and a big fan of a few members like Donghae, Eunhyuk and Heechul. Heechul was my first K-pop bias ever. I'd go to war for Sungmin too.

We found an actual fan yayyyyy

Quote from Pinky_Peachy

I like their music nowadays and in the last 5-6 years way more than their old music. When I relisten to their old songs, for a lot of them I do wonder what I even liked about them to begin with.

D&E music are all catchy bops though.

I AGREE SO MUCH

Starting with devil or maybe mamacita their music became a lot more the style that I enjoy nowadays.

Black Suit was and is one of the best title tracks by a boygroup in the last decade!

I also loveddd their collabs with the South American artists!

Quote from Pinky_Peachy

DE are easier to stan

Because they are unproblematic?

Quote from Alice-ND

I've been a fan since 2012, but I must say I love their recent years the most. My biases are KRY. I have been trying to stop checkin on Suju since forever, but they are really hard to get rid of, so I'm still around. I really like that their music is listenable(as long as they steer clear from rap) with many vocal touchoups that just make my ears happy. I also like their cute and sweet smiles. KRY concert was the first thing in Kpop I considered worthy of my money and it was beautiful. I watched it together with my husband.

I don't get all the fuss with all the problematic stuff they supposedly did. I have been around long enough to see all the other groups get into some really serious stuff. Rape allegations, bullying, cheating, stealing, military scandals etc. but the root of Suju's scandals is usually the same, aka they talked on variety and made bad/insensitive/ignorant joke/taken out of context or people just assuming the worst based on few words.

Unlike nonfans I have seen them grow as people, I also see the good stuff they do. Some of it completly contradicts all the things I have to read about them on twitter. I consider myself a very good judge of character in real life, so I don't get discouraged by all the hate. I don't think they are innocent babies, but I also don't think they are worse than any other Kpop group out there.

They have so many variety schedules, I'm kind of impressed they have only so few "scandals" in 17 years of this overexposure tbh.

Kangin was the only sore spot, but he's gone now too. Though 2PM had more drunk drivers than Suju, yet somehow their reputation didn't get hit that much. Siwon is somewhat a weird character, but that is something that was clear to me since the beginning.

I have created this account today, because it makes me sad seeing so few of us, ELF, in here. Back in the day, Allkpop was teeming with ELF. And I also remember all the picture memes on front page. Fun times.

I absolutely love this post!

I agree with many of your points- I am also very happy that Kangin is gone and see Siwon very critically, but at the same time I see many of their words being misinterpreted and I see quotes/inappropriate jokes being brought up which were made over a decade ago. While I understand while people might still feel uncomfortable with the latter, I believe that it is unfair to still hold this against them.

I have been interested in them since 2018, so it is always great to meet older fans :)

Quote from Alice-ND

And it is always nice to see newer fans too. I think the succession of Black suit, One more chance and their latin collabs brough in some new ELF.

Personally I am at that stage, when I don't complain about anything when it comes to them, I'm just glad they are still around making music for us and just appreaciating everything. And even if I sometimes wish something would turn out different ( music style, setlist, promotions, variety guesting etc.), I just think of all the hate the members are receiving on daily basis and don't have the heart to complain about anything.

I tend to be suprised by how much bad their reputation is ：/

Quote from monalisalove

I'm a kpop fan since 2014/15, but i kinda went on a whole 2nd gen tour kkkkk and i like some SUJU songs, watched some of their contents etc, overall I'm a casual..

Very similar to me! I think if you entered Kpop in 2015 you had a great chance to be a second gen fan

All the big groups showed up that year

Quote from crystalblues

Oh, are you a fan?

Quote from crystalblues

I made the SUJU emotes for the KPop BGs pack

Aw that is cute! Since when are you a fan?
