Super Junior M, a sub-group of Super Junior, formed in 2008, with the intent of targetting Chinese audiences. It consisted of 7 members: Hangeng(the leader) Zhou Mi, Henry, Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, Siwon, and Donghae. There was some controversy over Henry and Zhou Mi due to the fact that they were not part of the original members. Fans went as far as buying the stock of SM, announcing that they would not let there be any change to the group. Despite the opposition, they debuted with their album "Me," which mostly consisted of Mandarin remakes of their previous songs. A month after their debut, they won their first award: Asia's Most Popular New Group. Their next comeback was in 2009 with their album "Super Girl." This was their most successful song, and it won numerous awards. During 2010-2011, leader Hangeng filed a lawsuit against SM, leaving SJM mostly inactive. After the court ruled in favor of Hangeng, two new members, Eunhyuk and Sungmin were added. In 2011, they released "Perfection," which achieved high rankings on Taiwan's music charts. Recently, SMTown tweeted, "Super Junior-M will makeyou #BreamDown @ Jiangsu TV NYE Concert http:jstv.com" and released a teaser image of the group, hinting at their new comeback. Member Siwon is missing from the picture, implying that he may not be participating in this album.
As a String and Honey(fanclub name for Henry and Zhou Mi) I'm happy that they finally get more attention and have high expectations for this album.
