Super Junior-M (an initialism for Super Junior-Mandarin, also known as SJ-M), is the third sub-unit of the South Korean boy band Super Junior focusing on Chinese market, currently composed of six Super Junior members Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Siwon, Donghae, Ryeowook, Kyuhyun and special member Zhou Mi. The sub-unit is known as the first international music group in the Chinese music industry to have members of both Chinese and Korean descent. [2] The sub-unit has released two studio albums and three EP’s since their debut.

Contents

Formed in 2008, Super Junior-M became the third and most successful subgroup branched off from the Korean band Super Junior. The group was originally composed of seven members: leader Han Geng, Donghae, Siwon, Ryeowook, Kyuhyun and two additional members appearing exclusively to the subgroup, Zhou Mi and Henry. [2] In December 2009, Han Geng filed a lawsuit against SM Entertainment and decided to leave the main group and sub-group, resulting in the sub-group's temporary disbandment. [1]

After a year-long hiatus, the group returned with additional Super Junior members Eunhyuk and Sungmin, following with the released of their second EP Perfection in February 2011. Following Han Geng's departure, Sungmin was speculations as the new "leader", [3] as he is the oldest member of the team. [4]

Following the Korean members military service enlistment in 2015, the sub-unit promotions and activity were halted. In April 2018, Special member Henry left the sub-unit following his contract expiration with SM.

Name

Before the official name of the subgroup was released, they were known by "Super Junior China". On April 3, 2008, SM Entertainment announced their official name to be Super Junior-M, with "M" representing the word "Mandarin". [5] The "M" can also represent a list of other aspects, such as the first letter of their debut album Me , and also "mí" (Chinese : 迷 ), the pinyin for "charismatic" and "fan", the latter meaning referring to their desire to connect closer with fans. [5]

History

2007: Formation and controversies

In October 2007, SM Entertainment announced that a new Super Junior subgroup would debut in China in 2008. Super Junior's original member Han Geng, and a new member Henry Lau, who performed the violin solo of Super Junior's "Don't Don", were announced to be the first two of seven members representing the subgroup. [6] Some of Super Junior's official fanclub, E.L.F, signed online petitions and held protests to express their dissatisfaction and opposition of adding a fourteenth member to the group, fearing that a new member would mean one of the original lineup would get 'replaced'. [7] Many fans boycotted Super Junior's products and held silent protests in front of SM Entertainment's main building in Seoul, holding signs of the "Only 13" slogan. [8] [9]

Over one thousand fans appeared in front of the SM Entertainment building on E.L.F's third protest on November 3, 2007. [10] Instead of a silent protest, the fans sang various Super Junior songs and shouted "thirteen." [11] Fans purchased 58,206 stocks of SM Entertainment, holding 0.3% of the company's entire stock. [12] They released a statement through the media, stating that they would obtain all chances to prevent SM Entertainment from adding new members and to keep Super Junior as only thirteen. [12] SM Entertainment later announced that they would not add the new subgroup members to the main group.

2008–2009: Debut and commercial success

From April 4 to April 7, 2008, the seven members of Super Junior-M were individually announced to the Chinese media in a chain of short trailer clips. The first member, Han Geng, was announced to be the subgroup leader on April 4. [13] On April 5, Siwon and Donghae were revealed to be the second and third members. [14] On April 6, Kyuhyun was announced to be the fourth Super Junior-M member, following the new member, Henry, as the fifth. [15] Ryeowook and another new member, Zhou Mi, were announced to be the final two members on April 7. [16] A trailer of all seven members was released on the group's debut day, April 8. Super Junior-M's trailer clips exceeded 1.4 million views in less than four days. [17]

Super Junior-M debuted in Beijing on April 8, 2008, at the 8th Annual Music Chart Awards, simultaneously with the release of their first music video, "U" on Sohu.com. [17] "U" is a translated Chinese cover of the 2006 song "U", originally by Super Junior. They released their debut album Me in selected provinces of China starting April 23, 2008. A Korean version of the album with three bonus Korean-language tracks was released in South Korea on April 30, 2008. A modified version of the album was released in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan on May 2, 2008. [18] Though a majority of the tracks in the album were Mandarin remakes of Super Junior's previous Korean hits, reviews were generally positive. Hong Kong Cantopop singer, Hins Cheung, critiqued the album favorably, saying that the album contains "international-level music" and that the group is "vocally-talented". [19]

[22] Super Junior-M's appearance in the talk show Behind Story (Chinese :背後的故事) also increased ratings. The show had the highest ratings during their time slot, with a strong 4.05%. [23] Separated into several weekly episodes, the group's appearance in their first episode on the challenging game show Bravely Going Forward (Chinese :勇往直前) in early August gave the show the highest ratings during that time slot as well. [24] In August 2008, Han was cast in the idol television drama Stage of Youth , a mini-drama dedicated to the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Han portrayed Xia Lei, a youth who aspires to be a famous dancer. Other members of Super Junior-M gave cameo appearances in the final episode. [25]

In September 2009, Super Junior-M released their mini album, the EP Super Girl . The album garnered them a nomination for Best Vocal Group at the 21st Golden Melody Awards. [26] The EP's title single "Super Girl" is Super Junior-M's most critically successful song to date, winning numerous accolades for its composition and performances.

In December 2009, Hangeng filed for contract termination from SM Entertainment, claiming that the provisions of his contract were unlawful, harsh, and against his rights. [27] Super Junior-M immediately canceled all of their future activities and performances in China and Taiwan. They returned to Korea to begin preparing for Super Junior's fourth studio album. Han, however, stayed in China and signed under a new management, releasing his debut solo album Geng Xin in July 2010. [28] Although Super Junior-M remained largely inactive for most of 2010, they won several accolades for their song "Super Girl" at China's 2010 MusicRadio TOP Awards, including Most Popular Group, Golden Melody Award (Top 15), and Best Composition.

In December 2010, the Seoul Central District Court ruled in favor of Han. However, SM Entertainment announced that they will file an immediate appeal to reverse the decision. In September 2011, Han and SM Entertainment officially came to a mutual agreement regarding Han's contract, closing the case.
