hi i saw ur post about sm and the graduation system and i’m kinda new to kpop and kpop companies, i was wondering if u could explain what the graduation system is?
Hi! Uhm Okay, please bare with me 'coz I don't know where to start or how to explain this properly but I'll try lol
Let's start with history, shall we?
So a graduation system is basically a group concept made by SM Entertainment a music label/entertainment company where SJ, SNSD, SHINEE, F(X), NCT, EXO, TVXQ, RED VELVET, BOA & others are housed. So as per my knowledge, the 'Graduation System' was first applied or given to Super Junior when they debuted in 2005 making their debut album titled as 'Super Junior '05'. Meaning, the 12-member original lineup back then will be reorganized (idk if that's the proper term) based on their performance making the members work hard or do their best if they want to be part of the next lineup for Super Junior '06. It's like competing with your own members. So basically, every year or every comeback, there's a different or a new set of members. On the following year (2006), they added another member which was Kyuhyun making SJ a 13-member group, the largest pop group in history so far at that time. There were backlash when Kyuhyun was added. Fans (ELF) were worried and threatened about the instability of the group and the uncertainty of the concept that they have. Fans were worried about the members' future after going through intense training for yearsss so basically they didn't like it. And then in 2007, SM introduced another new member featuring which was Henry in SJ's 'Don't Don' comeback. Backlash continued. SM didn't expect that SJ's first and original lineup would appeal to the public like that, afterall, SJ was known to be 'TVXQ's leftovers'... damn writing this hurts... After all the backlash that SM received, they never tried adding anymore members into SJ and cancelled the 'graduation system'. They made Henry and ZhouMi (both are Chinese) members of Super Junior - M (SJ's sub-unit based and marketed in China) instead. Yes, just a member of the sub-unit, not the main group. If you still don't know since you're new to KPop, SJ was the first group to ever venture into sub-units. Considering they have large number of members, SM saw this opportunity to utilize their artists. It's like value adding. The first sub-unit in KPop was Super Junior - K.R.Y, a ballad sub-unit composed of SJ's main vocalists: Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, & Yesung. So yeah, the graduation/rotational system failed with SJ. They remained as a 13-member group since then (15-members actually including sub-unit members Henry & ZhouMi) Basically, SJ was a lab rat for SM, an experimental group. They gave the graduation system to them and tested the sub-unit thing as trial and error.
Fast forward to 2012, SM debuted EXO with 12 members as a whole divided into 2 sub-units which were EXO - M (Mandarin; based in China) and EXO - K (Korea) with 6 members each. There were no graduation system in EXO although they are an improved version of the sub-unit concept given, tried and tested first by SJ. SM would like to think that they left the errors they encountered with SJ's sub-unit system and then apply the 'improved' version of it to EXO. Did it also fail? You tell me. I'm seriously hoping that history won't repeat itself on WayV. Once you get deeper into Kpop especially into SM groups, you'll see eventually the connection, trend, similarites and differences between SJ, EXO & NCT (SM's largest groups) and also their Chinese sub-units, Super Junior - M, EXO - M, and WayV respectively and realize how SM worked around this concept of graduation/rotational system and infinite members and infinite possibilities that they gave NCT.
Fast forward to 2016, NCT debuted with its first sub-unit NCT U which has this rotational concept. Apparently, in NCT's case, rotational system and graduation was made separate and different. Any member in NCT regardless of what fixed unit they belong to could debut and release a song & MV as a member of NCT U depending on whoever fits the song. It could be a duo, a solo, a trio, or indefinite number of members.
SM would like to think that they left the errors they encountered with SJ's graduation system and then apply the 'improved' version of it to NCT Dream. NCT Dream debuted in 2016 with the original lineup of 7 members composed of Mark, Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, & Jisung. They were literally just 14 - 18 years old (Korean age) back then, teenagers. And the graduation system that SM gave them was that when they reach the age of adulthood which is 20y.o in Korea, they have to 'graduate' or leave the group and re-debut separately into another fixed unit which is based in another country's city ('coz SM was planning to conquer the world through music somehow lol). So after reaching the age of 20, these kids who literally grew up together as childhood friends are bound to be separated. Mark turned 20y.o in 2018 and graduated by the end of the same year. The members threw him a Kamsa (Thank You) Party which is like a send-off party around Christmas time of 2018. He was no longer part of NCT Dream's activity or comebacks after that nor seen together with the other NCT Dream's members unless it's a full group (NCT as whole) activity. So in 2019, 00liners Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, & Jaemin turned 20y.o and were expected to graduate from the sub-unit at the end of the year just like Mark. But SM announced concert tour schedules for NCT Dream on November of 2019. Til 2020 came and Chenle also turned 20y.o and SM never mentioned anything about the graduation. Not until today April 14, 2020 where they finally broke their silence and announced that NCT Dream's graduation system is abolished and will adopt NCT U's rotational system instead making NCT Dream a fixed unit. I know this might cause confusion later on especially for new NCTzens so I'm gonna clear it up here now. NCT U's rotational system includes everyone in NCT and give them opportunity to collaborate and release a song regardless of the sub-unit they belong to. While NCT Dream's rotational system is only exclusive to NCT Dream's 7 members: Mark, Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, & Jisung.
SM isn't really good at taking back whatever they've started, they'll see to it that at some point, they'll still be able to push through their original plan. That's why I said on my previous post that they've 'compromised'. They didn't give in to our demands, they've 'compromised' thinking that this is the 'best' they could give us given the situation.
Other people say it's no big deal, they're still in the same group just not in the same sub-unit. Or they're just separated in sub-units, it doesn't mean they're no longer friends which is all true. But if it's just something that light of a thing to deal with, it wouldn't affect the members so much. SJ have mentioned in some ocassions before that the graduation/rotational system they had during debut was extremely hard on them because even if they didn't want to, the concept made them look at their members, their friends as rivals. It made them compete with each other. The managers kinda pressured them into thinking that way, the company made them feel that way. They were still budding into adulthood back then, around 18- 22y.o. They were struggling because their concept gave them so much uncertainty. Imagine joining the company at a young age aspiring to debut as an artist so you could put food on the table for your family (because most of SJ members came from poor families) so you went through years of intense training and then to debut in a group where your future isn't assured. While for NCT Dream, since they are childhood friends, some of them have said on ocassions before (specifically Jaemin & Jisung) that aside from their members, they don't have friends. Because they've dedicated their childhood in intense training. They didn't have the time to mingle with other kids in school because right after classes, they'd go straight to training so the only friends they know and have are their members. Think that all those years they were building that relationship together, while SM were planning to separate them from each other when they turn 20. SM even made Jeno, Haechan & Jaemin drop out of high school just a few months before their high school graduation to focus on NCT Dream's graduation. Think about how they were robbed of that opportunity. I specially/personally feel bad about knowing how Jeno enjoys school and excels in academics. Think about how hard they cried during their first ever concert The Dream Show thinking that it might be their first and last concert together because even themselves don't know what SM plans to do with them after graduation. That's what the 'graduation system' does to young group of people. Although the concept is not all bad, but it's not nice to play with other people's emotions like that. That's why no one wants it.
So yeah, that concludes my explanation. Sorry if it's kinda information overload. I think, while writing, it became more of a vent/rant more than explaining. 😅
If there's any of ya'll who comes across this post may correct me (politely, of course) if any of the info I've wrote were wrong. Thank you. I hope this helps to you dear and to any Kpop newbies out there 😊

Facts
Taeyeon was born in Seoul, South Korea and lived there until age 5, when her mother passed away from cardiac arrest, moving away to America (more specifically, Los Angeles) with her father, who was a neurologist, and her younger brother
During the time she was in Korea, she was childhood friends with G-Dragon of Bigbang, but they lost contact after she moved
Taeyeon wanted to be a criminal profiler during her childhood
Since she was young, her father instilled in her the idea of always doing her very best at everything, to the point of surpassing her limits
When she was ten, her father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and she began to worry about how she would care for herself and Taeyong if he died
With that worry in mind, Taeyeon in 2004 participated in a singing competition in which YG Entertainment executives were attending; winning first place, she was scouted by them and auditioned
She auditioned by singing Uhm Jung Hwa’s Rose of Betrayal, rapping to H.O.T.’s Warrior’s Descendant, and dancing to BoA’s Amazing Kiss, and passed
When she gave the news to her father, he disapproved and told her he was going nowhere so she’d have to stay, but Taeyeon responded that she would go on her own
In late 2004, Taeyeon moved to South Korea and lived in the dormitory that YG provided
She requested that half of the funding she received from YGE as a trainee went to her family in America as to make money for Taeyong and her father until her debut
She met Soojin in 2004, when they were both twelve years old (in South Korean age) and became friends with her; upon joining YGE, she found out that Soojin was under the company as well
Taeyeon and Soojin spent their trainee days together
As a trainee, Taeyeon reunited with GD and also met Taeyang, T.O.P, Daesung, and Seungri
She rekindled her friendship with GD soon after entering YGE and also became close with the other Bigbang members
She met Yuna, Sunbin, and Minhee in early 2006
Three months before her debut, her father passed away from his pancreatic cancer
After their father’s death, Taeyeon brought Taeyong to Korea, where he unexpectedly joined YG Entertainment as an actor trainee
Taeyeon lived in the dorms with her fellow members during her teenage years 
Taeyeon is a fan of BoA, Sechskies and Super Junior; she’s also a giant fan of actress Kim Seohyung 
Taeyeon is considered one of the youngest idols to ever debut since she was fourteen (in terms of South Korean age) when Pandora debuted
Taeyeon and Taeyong have a very close relationship due to their father being emotionally distant during their childhood; Taeyong once said that she was both an older sister and a mother figure to him
According to Taeyong, during their teen years, Taeyeon would walk him to school, make sure he ate and slept properly, and help him with his studies, no matter how busy she got; when they were younger she also told off his classmates for picking on him
Because she looked after Taeyong since a young age, Taeyeon is very used to taking care of others and is noted to be mature; Pandora’s other members agree that she is the “parent” of the group, GD stated that she’s great at taking care of others, and Heechul once remarked that despite being much younger than the SuJu members, when they meet she acts like an older sister sometimes
It was because she had to take care of Taeyong that Taeyeon was so determined to become an idol at such a young age; otherwise, she didn’t know how she could look after him, and their father’s death made her even more resolved to be successful
She had her first relationship was when she was sixteen, with a girl the same age as her named Yeon Hyunjung, who eventually broke up with her after about a year
(i) She featured in Bigbang’s Let’s Not Fall In Love MV as GD’s love interest; many people commented that their acting and chemistry were extremely natural, to the point where the dating rumors that had died down started again
(ii) She composed, wrote, and produced the title song for Super Junior’s Mamacita album, Mamacita, as well as the side tracks of the album: Hit Me Up, Islands, and Evanesce
Taeyeon was honored and flattered to compose for and worth with a senior group
(iii) She featured as the “devil” in Super Junior’s Devil MV; according to her, it was funny because by the time of the music video, she was friends with Leeteuk, Heechul, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun, but not particularly close with the other members, which made things somewhat awkward during the more touchy scenes
She was a member of the 2017-2018 reality TV show Borrow Trouble Season 2 and the 2018 reality TV show Why Not The Dancer
Taeyeon has worked as a director for Pandora’s concerts since 2015
In addition to being an idol, Taeyeon has starred in a few dramas and movies; (iv) her most well-known roles are Yeon Min-jung in the 2014 MBC drama Jang Bori Is Here, Lee Nayeon/Baek Dohui in the 2016 KBS drama The Promise, Min Chaerin in the 2018 MBC drama Hide and Seek, Yeo Dakyung in the 2020 JTBC drama The World of the Married, and Izumi Hideko in the 2016 film The Handmaiden
Taeyeon works as an emcee occasionally, although she doesn’t often take part in big or long-running shows 
She owns a clothing brand called D’apchier, which began as an online store to sell designs that she produces for fun, but it boomed in Korea, Japan, and China and developed it into a full brand
Taeyeon also owns a sushi restaurant on Jeju Island
She is a Chanel brand ambassador
Taeyeon is very comfortable sleeping in the same room or even on the same bed as close male friends because she always slept in the same bed as Taeyong to comfort him since they were young
The other members of Pandora are like sisters to her, because she’s known and worked with them for so long
Taeyeon says that if she could date any of her members, she would date Soojin; the other members also joke that the two of them are in love, which Taeyeon and Soojin like to playfully affirm by saying, “We’re desperate for each other.” 
The Bigbang members are like brothers to her
She sometimes jokingly calls T.O.P. and Taeyang “hyung”
Out of Bigbang, Taeyeon thinks Taeyang would be the best husband
Taeyeon and GD half-jokingly refer to the other as "my soulmate”
They call each other this and are partially serious about it because they consider each other to be the person who understands them best thanks to their many similarities
She is friends with all of Super Junior from working with them with the exception of Hangeng, Zhoumi, and Henry, but she’s especially close to Heechul, Leeteuk, Yesung, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun
She became friends with Heechul in 2009 when they emceed together during Inkigayo; Leeteuk, Shindong, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Siwon, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun in 2014 when she worked with them for SJ’s MAMACITA album; Yesung in 2015 during her feature as the “devil” in SJ’s Devil MV
Because of how close they are, Heechul likes to jokingly ask her to marry him to which she jokingly responds that she’ll think about it
The two also like to link arms while walking and call each other “honey”, “my man”/”my woman”
Heechul has a signature nickname for Taeyeon – “devil” – because of how crafty she is, according to him, and Taeyeon has a signature nickname for Heechul – “nutcase” – for obvious reasons, she says
She is friends with Jessica Ho, better known as Jessi, a solo artist
Taeyeon is close with both 2NE1 and Blackpink, especially CL from the former and Rosé from the latter
Taeyeon is friendly with Sunny, Hyoyeon, and Sooyoung of SNSD, and former member Jessica; her shared name with SNSD’s Taeyeon is running joke
She’s also acquainted with all of SHINee’s members and friends with Key and Taemin
Taeyeon has been friends with Song Mino of Winner - also the same age as her - since he joined YGE, because both of them enjoy rap so much
She is also friends with the comedian Yoo Jaesuk
Taeyeon is rather friendly with Rihanna and Beyoncé, both of whom she met while working internationally
Taeyeon loves to write and compose songs, a shared passion that helped in re-establishing her friendship with GD
Taeyeon writes and composes her group’s tracks, sometimes with the other members’ help, and writes and composes all her solo discography; she also writes, composes, and produces other groups’ discography
She had a hand in the lyrics and production of 2NE1′s hit song I Am The Best
According to the other members of Pandora, Taeyeon guides the group, is the strictest one out of them all, has high expectations for her members and those that she works with, and is very meticulous; she also prefers to keep a distinct line between work and personal matters
This is why Taeyeon makes sure to clarify that she and the other members gathered together to work, although they love each other after so long together – therefore, internal or personal disagreements have no place interfering with or threatening their continued existence as a group
What complements and softens her strictness and natural exigence, however, the members and others around her say, is that she’s “warm-hearted” and takes good care of everyone that she works with; also, the results of her attention to detail are almost always very good, making the payoff worthwhile
Taeyeon is an excellent cook
She's an excellent driver and can adjust quickly to driving unfamiliar cars, as seen when she appeared on Running Man
In college, Taeyeon double-majored in neuroscience and anthropology
She and Soojin attended the same college
Taeyeon has a wide range of interests, but she admits that sometimes it’s not a good trait, since it often prevents her from focusing properly on any one topic 
By nature she loves to learn, even if what she knows never has any practical application, so she often tries random things for fun; it often annoyed her members when they lived together in their dorm
The other members of Pandora are at a consensus that the most apt way to describe Taeyeon is a ‘renaissance man’ (much to her chagrin)
Her most treasured possession is her wide collection of books
Some of Taeyeon’s favorite books are We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson, No Longer Human by Dazai Osamu, Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky, Demian by Hermann Hesse, Unfinished Tales by J.R.R. Tolkien, The Things They Carried by Tim O’Brien, The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by NK Jemison, Circe by Madeline Miller, The Devil Aspect by Craig Russell, The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker, Fox Girl by Nora Okja Keller, and Paradise Lost by Milton
She also loves the webnovels Èr Hā Hé Tā De Bái Māo Shī Zūn by Meatbun Doesn’t Eat Meat and Tian Guan Ci Fu by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu
Taeyeon enjoys learning about mythology, particularly Greek and Norse mythology
Taeyeon has an IQ of 189, and consistently maintained the number one spot in her class during her time in university
Out of all the members of Pandora, Taeyeon is the worst at taking photos
She’s also the worst at doing makeup since she rarely wears it outside of work
A complete homebody, when Taeyeon isn’t at work, she’s usually in her house, either working or, according to Soojin, “learning about random new things that will never be relevant to her life”
She and Soojin both agree that extreme sports seem fun and love trying them when the opportunity comes on variety shows
She has played the piano, violin, and guitar since childhood, but has also picked up the cello and flute
Her favorite variety shows are Running Man, Radio Star, Knowing Bros, SNL Korea, and Super TV/Super TV2
She learns choreography the fastest of the Pandora members – about a few hours if she works nonstop
Taeyeon is introverted and has a “naturally calm” personality (according to Heechul); she’s more playful with people she trusts and is close to
The people close to her attest that she has excellent self-control and rarely ever loses her cool, to the point where it’s sometimes almost freaky, and that when she’s angry, she speaks calmly; in Yuna’s opinion, that makes it scarier
When a disagreement occurs, Taeyeon’s method of resolving is almost always to sit with the opponent and talk it out; because of this, she’s Pandora’s go-to problem solver
Taeyeon is agnostic
She believes in aliens because she thinks it’s unlikely that Earth is the only planet in the universe able to sustain life; she thinks ghosts might be real, but if they are, not all of them are malicious or looking to frighten people
She learned Muay Thai since a young age at her father’s strict commands, since he wanted her to be able to defend herself; that learning came in handy when, in 2010, a man tried to kidnap Sunbin and Taeyeon managed to delay him long enough for the bodyguards to restrain him
Her MBTI type is INTJ
Minhee once commented that it’s frustrating to get in an argument with her because of how relentlessly logical she is
She’s very openminded when it comes to differences of opinion, as long as those differences can be well-supported rationally
Taeyeon is bisexual and an LGBTQ+ supporter 
Taeyeon is known for being witty and having quick reactions during verbal banter, resulting in her popularity in variety shows; on top of this, she’s not afraid to make the hosts a victim of her wit, either
Heechul, GD, Soojin, and Minhee all attest that she’s also as witty off-screen
When she goes on variety shows with other Pandora members, she usually becomes less talkative because she likes watching what they do on screen, but she steps in when she feels like it could help her members
She doesn’t follow a strict diet due to her fast metabolism, but opts to avoid certain foods and exercise often for health reasons; because of this, she’s a fast runner and is also good at sit-ups
She’s the most flexible member of Pandora
Taeyeon has great lower-body strength, lifting Kim Gura on her back and walking for a few seconds in Radio Star, and lifting Eunhyuk on her back and walking for a few seconds in Strong Heart
Taeyeon is ambidextrous, but slightly favors her left hand
Her favorite food is jjampong, but soondae and kimchi japchae also come close
She can hold her alcohol well, but she doesn’t drink often because it’s bad for her health
She’s a night person and in fact states that she feels more alert when the sun is down
Her favorite animal is the leopard; she’s just been fascinated with them since childhood
As seen on variety shows, Taeyeon has an extremely competitive side because she genuinely enjoys challenges
She’s very good at holding in her laughter
Leeteuk compares her sense of humor to that of Ryeowook or Kyuhyun of Super Junior – teasing and sharp
She’s very firm when she’s talking about serious matters, which is why she’s Pandora’s main representative for negotiations with the company – leading to her nickname “Manager Taeyeon”
Taeyeon is generally a very straightforward person with regards to most things; for example, she’s not the type to hide it if she’s interested in someone else unless there are specific circumstances holding her back, despite the fact that she’s good at hiding her feelings
Sometimes, though, Taeyeon likes to make her feelings obvious as a way of flirting
She treats romantic relationships seriously and tends to meet the same person for a long time, but ironically, she’s good at casually flirting
According to Soojin, Taeyeon is the type to retain her independence and life even in the midst of a relationship, and not someone who obsesses over her partner
She can, however, be very protective of the people that she cares about, and holds intense grudges against anyone who hurts them
She’s prone to keeping her problems to herself, which can sometimes lead to misunderstandings between her and people who are close to her
Taeyeon since childhood has always been rather pessimistic and often imagines the worst-case scenario; as a result, she worried quite a lot, and can sometimes be draining to be around
Taeyeon suffers from depression, but no one would guess unless they knew her well because she makes sure to stay lively and witty unless she’s with people she’s really close to 
Taeyeon is and has been a perfectionist since childhood; she is known as a “complete workaholic”, since the majority of her time is spent working in any way that she can (writing lyrics, composing music, designing, etc.)
Her perfectionist nature was only exacerbated by both her father and aunt, who had very high expectations of everything she did
The people close to her attest that she works on one thing or another when any spare time presents itself – in the car, in the waiting room, during hair and makeup preparations, etc.
Because she is such a perfectionist, Taeyeon is somewhat of a control freak; it makes her intensely uncomfortable to lose control of things relevant in her life
This is part of the reason why she insists on participating in every aspect of Pandora’s or her solo discography, including writing, composing, producing, choreography, and directing; it’s still mainly because she has a passion for expressing herself through music, but she also feels anxious if she doesn’t touch on everything
Taeyeon isn’t one to be bothered by hate and likes to read anti comments to get ideas from them, saying that many she comes across are actually very witty
Taeyeon remembers a bit about her mother and thinks about her often; she wonders how her mother would feel to see where she is now, how her mother would feel about her still complicated feelings about her father, and how her life might have changed if her mother had lived
She thinks that her love for reading and writing came from her mother, who read to her every day when she was young
Publically, Taeyeon vaguely admitted that she “felt awkward” around her father up until his death; in truth, though, part of her resented and still resents him for never being there for either her or Taeyong
However, her father still occupies her thoughts, and the unresolved state of their relationship makes it even harder for her to forget him; (v) Her songs Fine and Time Lapse, which she wrote and had a hand in composing and producing, was largely based on her feelings toward him
In Taeyeon’s opinion, she inherited a lot of her father’s traits, namely his workaholic tendencies, perfectionist attitude, love for learning, and his pessimism and tendency to distance himself emotionally
Taeyeon is noted for having a wide variety of concepts when it comes to the songs she writes, composes, and performs; while YG is mainly known for its hip-hop and Taeyeon has gone that route several times, too, she also tends to experiment
Because of this tendency to be experimental, Taeyeon and the rest of Pandora have been noted for being “concept chameleons” by some
When asked if all the songs are from personal experience, Taeyeon replied: “No, not exactly. Some of them are, but others... I like to make up stories and characters in my head and experience things vicariously through those characters that I can’t experience in reality. Some of my compositions’ lyrics come from that, too. It’s kind of odd, but in the end I see it as another form of expression.”
Because of her interest in linguistics, Taeyeon enjoys learning new languages
Taeyeon can speak English (from growing up in America), Korean (from her time in Korea and taught to her extensively by her father), Mandarin (learned during work abroad), Japanese (learned during work abroad), and Spanish (learned in school and during work abroad) fluently; she’s good at Thai and French, and knows some German, Italian, Filipino, and Russian
Taeyeon firmly believes that men and women can be friends, since many of her good friends are male
She's had a lot of dating rumors because she has numerous male friends, although people have accepted now that many of them are just that - friends
When Arcana first debuted, there was an explosion of dating rumors about her and GD, thanks to their chemistry, close relationship, and numerous interactions on/off camera
She is also shipped frequently with the other Bigbang members, most often Daesung and Taeyang (until he got married), due to their interactions on variety shows and award shows
On top of this, Taeyeon is often shipped with Super Junior members –mostly Heechul, Leeteuk, and Eunhyuk – due to being especially close with them despite being under different companies; they are often seen interacting behind cameras or at music broadcasts, and enthusiastically enjoying each other’s performances
Taeyeon is a somewhat controversial figure in South Korea because she (and the rest of the Pandora members) is more outspoken about her concerns regarding the double standards against women in the industry as opposed to men, as well as South Korea’s sexism in general; she has also delved into topics such as LGBTQ rights and the stigma against idols dating
Taeyeon’s ideal type: “Honestly, I don’t really have one. My basic requirements for a relationship are that we love each other, respect each other, and enjoy each other’s company. I think things like ‘ideal type’ complicate matters. I do like humor in a partner, though.”

200419 zhoumi live
Changjoo’s farewell party pic 🤗🎂🎉🎉🎉
“I see that many are leaving comments asking about Super Junior-M. Thank you, I miss you too. Many are asking about Super Junior-M.” https://t.co/5Rpv82nFxT“
Frankly speaking, I remember that during a year-end broadcast, I had mentioned that actually the main reason why I stayed with the company is because I want everyone to see a (SJ-)M’s comeback again.”
“Because I’ve been releasing solos these few years, I feel that it’s really a pity not being able to let everyone see M’s comeback. Yeah, so this has always been a very very big regret of mine...”
“So I’ll write more songs this year. In the past, M’s songs were selected by the company, so this time... I spent a lot of time writing songs this year, including the song 在你身旁, sang together with WayV Kun and Xiaojun.”
“I hope this time if M could release an album, the songs would be written by me and performed together with the members. Regardless whether it’s all the M members, even if it’s just 1 or 2, 3 or 4, I hope to be able to bring a feeling of M group to everyone.” “.
..within this period of time where I am able to do something. But everyone, I met the members 2 day ago, I just want to let everyone know that the members have always been missing the fans in the country (China) and they really wish to come here to meet everyone.”
“...but recently the pandemic situation has been quite serious... There has been thoughts regarding plans for Super Junior-M, but to prepare an album takes time, so everyone please give us more confidence and time okay?”
“That day Kyuhyun told me he hasn’t gone to China for some time already and for me, I spent most of my time in China. And I went to track, seems like the members... The last time we released an album was in 2014. 2014 till now, it has already been 6 years. 6 years...”
“Members probably haven’t been to China for around 6 years already, I feel that to them, it’s a really really long period. So I really hope... If there is a chance, I want to bring them to China again to meet everyone.”

oh yeah, just so you all remember, all your faves are able to do what they can today because of super junior. Remember when zhoumi and Henry were supposed to be officially a part of the main team but fans were so fucked up they bought stocks and forced the company to put them as suju m members instead? Remember when hangeng was in a time before foreigners were allowed on TV so he had to wear masks on stage and basically pioneered the way for your favorite Chinese/Japanese/etc idols to join kpop groups? Subunits, large groups, so many integral parts of kpop are because of super junior so I really wish that people sort of. Understood that. You don't have to like them, but I just hope y'all respect them for what they did, especially what the Chinese members had to sacrifice for your foreign faves to be able to perform as they do right now.

#ELFWantOT11
It's a beautiful thing. Althought I don't condone what Kangin have done, if SM and the other members believe in him, I think ELFs should give him a chance.
But honestlly, I think we are forgeting someone. Zhoumi!
#ELFWantOT12 should be trending. Even of only13 did what they did back then, we shouldn't perpetuate what they did.
Because whoever ever prevented Henry and Zhoumi to join back then weren't in their right mind. Can you imagine how cruel it was for the two men? They even lived with the other in the dorms! Their place was with the other, in the main group!
It's too late for Henry sadly ( and it's a sad thing really), but not for Zhoumi (yet). Mimi is always adorable and present for the other members, he even went to see Yesung in Japan recently! He worked as hard as the other members and got horrible things said too him and acceptance from ELFs, SM and a place in SuJu is long overdue for him.
I doubt its still possible honestly but I think we should make it know that we think it should be that way. Mimi needs support.
And even of you are not a fan of him , I swear to tweet or try that tag. Mimi is an adorable sunshine, a funny diva, he sings SO FREAKING WELL. He' s a great MC and seems to have great friendships with Siwon, Kyu, Hyuk. And even Yesung with who he shared dorms back then.
And Chul, he tooks care of him when Chul was injured! He still follow Min on Insta ♡
So anyway, maybe add #ELFWantOT12 tp your tag and give him the love he should have receive all those years ♡

please tell me about the rest of the members too !! kyuhyun is my bias (somehow bc at this point i know the least about him and ryeowook), but i like pretty much all of them??? also what shows can i watch bc i like watching shows !! I've seen the newest weekly idol and the one with henry and kyuhyun, and i've seen the start of super tv but then i got confused between that and super...junior? tv? the one with guests that shinee was on, please teach me how to watch super tv
Ahh welcome to the Kyu cult stans club! he’s adorable I love him so much
anyway! since I covered the basics in my last post, I’ll be jumping straight into the members I didn’t discuss last time.
Past Members:
Kibum (Kim Kibum)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
he doesn’t even look like the same person i’m-
Kibum was a part of the original SuJu lineup in 2005 as a vocalist. In 2006 he began acting, and slowly began focusing on his solo career more and more. He was completely absent from “Sorry, Sorry” promotions and “Bonamana” as well. He left SM and SuJu officially in 2015. He’s in Attack of the Pin Up Boys (a movie starring all 12 of the original SuJu members) as the narrator. He’s a good actor and he’s been in a movie and a drama with my wife Go Ara, so you know he’s got some talent. I personally don’t keep up with him much, so there’s not much I can offer on terms of his personality.
Hangeng/Hankyung (Han Geng)
Tumblr media
He was the original leader of Super Junior-M until his departure in 2009. He left after filing a lawsuit claiming SM’s 13 year exclusive contracts were unfair, and also revealed that SM had refused to give him a day off in over two years, resulting in health issues. Hangeng won, but SM filed a appeal and later Hangeng and SM reached ‘mutual agreement’. He was also Heechul’s best friend and he’s a huge sweetheart, please listen to his solo stuff! He hasn’t put out music in three years now, but he has such a nice, calming voice
Super Junior-M Members:
Zhoumi (Zhou Mi)
Tumblr media
This precious baby, my SON, is Zhoumi. I know I said before I wouldn’t talk about main or lead positions, but Zhoumi is the main vocalist of Super Junior-M and his voice is so goooooooood. He just dropped a new MV and honestly I love him so much, his solo stuff is amazing, I want to squish him He’s so close with his members and it honestly fuels me in life. He’s also the only fully Chinese member in Super Junior-M.
Henry (Henry Lau)
Tumblr media
I honestly debated putting him here or in past members, since Henry left SM in April of 2018 and effectively left Super Junior-M. The maknae of Super Junior-M, Henry is also a undercover comedian in his own right. He’s got so many funny moment compilations I don’t know where to begin. He’s also close friends with Mark Lee from NCT. Henry is honestly one of the funniest idols I’ve ever witnessed, and his solo music is full of bops. He’s also an amazing violinist and is even the “mysterious violinist” in SuJu’s “Don’t Don” MV! Stan talent, stan Henry Lau
Members on Hiatus:
Kangin (Kim Youngwoon)
Tumblr media
The “dad” of SuJu, he’s been on hiatus since 2016, when he committed his second DUI (the first being in 2009). He’s also had the police called on him and some say he assaulted his girlfriend, but the official report says the woman did not press charges and it was simply an argument. 
He loves his members, and he’s truly a great singer (pls give him more lines when he comes back). He’s amazing and I hope he learns his lesson and is able to return to the group soon.
Sungmin (Lee Sungmin)
Tumblr media
The cutest not-makne around! Sungmin has been on hiatus since 2015, when he got married. When SuJu announced their plans to return, ELFs protested again his presence in the group and he issued an apology and said he wouldn’t be joining SuJu when PLAY came out. if y’all pull the same shit again i will hunt you down and throw hands. He’s honestly just so cute, this gif is ruining me as we speak
Kyuhyun (Cho Kyuhyun)
Tumblr media
oh boy. oh no. you guys opened the floodgates. a whole can of loving kyuhyun is ready to be served. i spent forever even just looking for a gif for this
Kyuhyun, the forever maknae of SuJu. I’m pretty sure he has the voice of a Greek god, and you can quote me on that. He’s incredibly dorky and sweet and just??? His smile owns my entire heart. He is the softest man alive and his hair is so fluffy! I love it!!! He’s so cute! and evil His hiatus is set to end May 24th, 2019, when he returns from military service. He’s also earned himself the title of “ballad king”. He’s called “vicious tongue”, but he loves his members and hopefully his return from the military will convince SM to bring OT11 back together again.
Extra Videos to Watch:
Zhoumi “Rewind” (Chinese Version ft. Tao) | (Korean Version ft. Park Chanyeol)
Henry “Trap” (ft. Kyuhyun and Taemin)
Kyuhyun “A Million Pieces”
Super Junior’s Super TV:
So this is a variety show that someone thought was a good idea to make, and the result is a funny show with a bunch of crackheads dorks running it. They have different groups on as guests. The lovely person who runs the tumblr @supertvsubs has the episodes subbed and available for download
SJ Returns:
A reality TV show that showcased SuJu and aired in 2017. I can’t find a reliable source that has all the episodes, but I’m sure you can find them around on YouTube with a little searching.
I hope this helped!! Thank you again for giving me an opportunity to ramble on about my boys :,D
If there’s any other groups you want to know about, please send another ask in! I’ll be posting a list of the groups I stan soon

As sad as I am that a chankaisoo subunit isn’t likely to come out of this, (This isn’t from anything I’ve heard, I’ve just been weighing odds and I’m doubtful.) I am kind of curious if a prediction of mine could come to pass:
Kai and Sehun have alluded to ‘solo’ music in the past year, so perhaps it’s a Chanhunkai (Is that the name??) unit, but on the album each member will have a solo track?
This is purely speculative, of course. I’m still unfamiliar with a lot of practices in entertainment companies. I’m also basing these predictions on the assumption that there won’t be member overlap in the subunits. I know that’s common in the big groups, i.e. SuJu and NCT, but comparatively EXO is a small group now. And as much as we miss OT9, it’s probably going to be staying at 8 members for a while. This also isn’t taking into account the possibility of new members being placed in the subunits without being part of the main group, i.e. Henry and Zhoumi of Super Junior-M.
Idk, just spitballing.

HELLO GOODBYE
Main- Zhoumi + y/n
Based on the song by hyolyn
Tumblr media
2 years relation ship with zhoumi was fun and sweet and today you have a appointment with your doctor and you kissed zhoumi good morning "I have an appointment I'll see you later ok "
He nods and turns
While waiting for you getting called you looked at sns
Nurse "y/n ? Please follow me this way "
You walked in the room getting everything checked but once your doctor saw something wrong and he sent you getting your chest checked
Then you went to get it checked and you went back home waiting for the doctor to call you back you were worried keep dozing off thinking of what can happen so you drove home and try not to look worried but being with zhoumi for so long he knows something is up
"Y/n what's up what happend why do you look like that come have a seat "
He sat you down and you lay down on his lap
"Oh nothing just tired just need some sleep "
He kissed your forehead and he play with your hair "OK take a nap I'll cook lunch "
You went to your room shivering of worries and a call from the doctor came up
Doc: you have breast cancer you can't live for long you only have 1 month left
You ended the call and started working on a daily journal and you decorate it with your picture with zhoumi
Zhoumi came up and tell you lunch is ready and you don't want to hide it from him so you hugged him
" there's something you need to know " you hold his hand "I have breast cancer and I only have a month left before I go " he dropped down and he huged you tight "it's OK we can figure something out like treatment or something "
"No mimi it's OK I don't want to go through the pain"
You sent a message to sj members in the group chat
You: please take care of zhoumi when I'm gone
Hee nim - gone wdym?

"No zhoumi "
Your replied the same to them " no there's no mix up "
Kyu - what color do you want your coffin to be?
Siwon - ya this is no joke!
Ever since then you both take more pictures and collected them in a album even a zhoumi who usually dosent hug during sleep now a days he has this new habit to keep you close to him.

Mimi went to prepair himself to preform with the boys aka sj
The performance started and u sang along
Tumblr media
"Y/n will you marry me? It dosent matter the time you have left I just want you to be mine and want everyone to know your mine! "
He kneels down infront of you with flowers
You walk down and nod "yes I do "
The guys we're so happy and spread some flowers on both of you
The next day you got another call zhoumi was next to you and he held your hand
"Hey doc "
Doc - good news you don't have cancer it was a mix up I apologize
You start to cry and shaky voice thanking the doc
End the call and you hugged zhoumi
IM FREE I DONT HAVE CANCER OMG IM YOUR WIFE NOW YAY IM SO HAPPY
Zhoumi was happy to see you happy and you also told the boys and you guys have dinner tomorrow to celebrate

Henry’s already branching out into other things he’s always wanted to do, and I’m so proud and sad at the same time! This brings up so many emotions as a String and ELF and a Forever15....

I’ve been a String and ELF since Henry’s debut. It was actually Super Junior M that I first discovered on Show Luo’s variety program. I liked him, because he played the violin like I did and I thought he was charming. It was only later that I realized he was (but not really, let’s face it) part of a much bigger group and was in the middle of so much hatred and prejudice.
What makes me the saddest is thinking how long he suffered under not just SM’s restrictions, but at how hateful certain ELF were toward him and Zhou Mi. It was their reaction to Henry joining Super Junior that caused this whole isolation from the group. And yes, look into it: in the very very beginning, he was originally meant to join the main group, but “fans” opposed it so hatefully, SM had to back-track and say he would be part of a sub-group. They were so hateful, even Leeteuk, the leader of the group, showing support and love for Henry was ignored, and even sparked controversy. On Radio Idol’s True Colors, Heechul spoke with ZhouMI about how helpless he felt as a hyung having to stand by quietly and watch what was happening to Henry and ZhouMI, and feeling like the best he could do was be good to them. ZhouMi cried in this episode thinking back on it. If you’ve followed Heechul for as long as I have, you’ll know he always had a soft spot for people who were unjustifiably mistreated.
Well, I guess ONLY13 should be pleased with themselves.
And you know what? That’s fine:
Now that Henry’s no longer a part of the group that zealous faction of “fans” can officially die, as they no longer serve a purpose. Hopefully ZhouMI will follow suit shortly, if he’ll just do himself the favor and let his contract run out. I say this because Henry and ZhouMi will remain close to the members they are already close with, whatever fans think: Heechul and Hangeng were seen in pictures together as recently as 2015 --  SEVEN YEARS after he left Super Junior due to mistreatment by management and SM Ent.

Whew. Okay. Got that out of my system.
I hope we can all move foreword in this, and I hope Henry (and ZhouMi) will thrive and flourish and to all the things he’s always wanted to do and couldn’t.
I hope this for  quite a few SM Idols who have shown signs of feeling stifled and helpless and creatively strangled. I want them all to thrive and do everything they’ve always wanted to do. 
Of course Super Junior aren’t going to speak on it any time soon: they’re still in SM, after all. All of that will have to come with the passing of time, and we can only wait. Who knows. Maybe now that Henry is out of the group, they can support him openly for Christsake!

This really fucking hurts.
This really, REALLY fucking hurts.
Yes, it’s for the best, yes, Henry will be free to do the things he wants, and maybe the other members will finally have the chance to talk about him without getting back-lash for it, but this is a huge chunk of my younger days that’s kind of been shattered. 
I don’t know if I’m the only one who is as upset and happy at the same time, but I haven’t really adjusted yet.

Lowkey still hoping for Henry and Zhoumi to be announced officially as part of the main SJ group. They freakin deserve it yo. I was bored so I checked out label sj's ig and saw that the account doesn't follow them and that breaks my heart. They're following every member with an ig account and sm only... its sad to see how cautious they have to be until now.

hey, i see that you write for super junior, but i was just wondering if that included the super junior m member zhoumi, since he's not part of the main group? (I'd ask about henry as well but since he's a disgusting person im not really bothered anyway)
I do include Zhou Mi! I’ll also include Han Geng but won’t mark him as Super Junior, but I can’t include Kibum because I don’t know him at all. Henry I’ll pass on.

About Sungmin and the division among ELFs
There’s been a lot of anti-Sungmin sentiment lately and I for one had no idea why there was hate for him to begin with. “Are K-ELF angry bc their bias got married??” I think that’s the most common reaction among I-ELF but that of course isn’t it. What bothers me the most is the divide between Korean & International ELF tbh. Each side calling the other stupid/ignorant bc “they don’t get it but they think they know everything” is very unfair. BOTH sides need understanding. Do research, try to hear what the other side is saying rather than judging them based on a couple of angry/hateful comments.
I did. I looked up posts from K-ELF on “reasons why Sungmin will never regain Korean fans” and read them. And you know what? I GAINED UNDERSTANDING. I finally get why K-ELF feel betrayed. But you know what else? I ultimately still support Sungmin (just FYI he’s not even my bias in SuJu so don’t go there).
I agree that the timing for his wedding was extremely poor especially considering what had happened with Leeteuk’s family & also the SS6 tour & the album promotion period. It was a selfish move to push on with the wedding. It just was. Also, him using bodyguards during fanmeetings to basically bully fans from bringing up the topic- very wrong. And denying the rumors to Korean fans but admitting it to others- also not cool. Plus, forcing his then gf’s nickname onto others via his new signature was kinda lame.
Even though I sympathize with K-ELF on those points, I still choose to support Sungmin & his wife bc at the end of the day, I feel like it was just a really unfortunate confluence of events, bad timing & yes, a tablespoon of selfishness (really like a cup if we’re keeping to cooking ratios but you get the point). They wanted to get married on the one year anniversary of their first meeting and he didn’t want to put it off bc he was enlisting 3 months later. They really wanted to be married. I can’t hate on him/them for that. Yes, it came at the expense of a couple of things- namely the inconvenience of his group but I don’t believe that means he doesn’t care about Suju anymore. He made a choice for himself and his love and put it ahead of the group. Priorities change in life, but again, it doesn’t signify that he has stopped caring about the members or the fans.
But- and I really want to emphasize this point- if the guys can move on from it, why shouldn’t we as fans? I’m not saying they’re all over it- it may well remain a sore point within the group- but to go so far as to assume that they want him out is going too far. By going against Sungmin and his participation with the comeback later this year, you are hurting the group as a whole. Losing Hangeng & Kibum was hard enough at the time, but now you expect them to expel him from the group almost 12 years into this thing (plus Kangin but that’s another topic for another day)? No. I also want to add that my main contention with the anti-Sungmin K-ELF and really with ALL fans in the world who feel like he/they/ANY idols owe their career to them (the fans). I disagree. Fan support is crucial & necessary but to say that “THEY OWE US” is going over the top imo. Just as the idols aren’t entitled to any fan support, we as fans are not entitled to access into the idols’ lives.
For the sake of full disclosure, I think most I-ELF are miffed by K-ELF, not just because of this mess but also from the Henry-ZhouMi disaster from way back when. They were not welcomed (to put it very politely) and found support from the international fans. It still breaks my heart to hear them talk about how they were THIS close to quitting bc of the backlash against them joining. Hell, to this day, a number of ELF still don’t acknowledge them as a part of Super Junior. As Heechul once said, “if you can’t support all 15 members, then what kind of ELF are you?”
