Super Junior World Tour "Super Show 4" Heated Up Their Fans

Back in October, we reported that Super Junior would embark on a worldwide concert tour called “Super Show 4“. Additional details about their upcoming tour were revealed today through K-media press releases regarding their next stops and song list.

The boys will kick off their tour in Seoul on November 19th and 20th at the Olympic Stadium in Seoul. Afterwards, they will move onto Japan for performances at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka for December 10th and 11th. Super Junior will then ravel to other Asian cities before reaching major American and European cities.

“Super Show 4″ will include all of Super Junior’s latest songs from their 5th studio album, incorporating their usual glamourous stages, gags and high quality performances to touch their fans’ hearts.

Super Junior, the immensely popular K-pop band that has led the Korean wave to reach a global phenomenon, launched their latest concert tour Super Junior World Tour Super Show 4 in Seoul, Korea on 19 and 20 November 2011. Fans from Singapore will be thrilled to know that the concert will reach our shores on 17 February 2012, as confirmed by concert organiser, Running Into The Sun today.

 “We’ve witnessed the massive appeal of Super Junior when they were here for Super Show 3 earlier this year; and how it broke all boundaries to attract fans across all age groups and demographics,” said Beatrice Chia-Richmond, Creative Director of Running Into The Sun.

“Running Into The Sun aims to bring acts that break new ground and challenge our creativity, so we’re more than thrilled to have confirmed Super Show 4 in Singapore.” Super Junior World Tour Super Show 4 is expected to entertain Singapore audiences with nothing but the best from the leading K-Pop boy band. When asked during the press conference today what fans from Singapore can look out for in Super Show 4; the leader of the group, Lee Teuk, said that he remembers that Singapore fans sent a lot of love when they were there and he’s excited to be able to meet the fans at Super Show 4 in Singapore, on a stage – more dynamic and the biggest-scale ever yet – that would bring them even closer than before.

Super Show 4 in Singapore will be the first stop across Southeast Asia, with a limited 10,000 tickets available for sale from 14 January 2012, 10.00am for a one-day priority booking period for OCBC Card members, the official card for the concert.

Apart from sprawling LED screens, pyrotechnics and aerial stunts from the group, special water effects will take centre stage as one of the many highlights of the concert.

The three-hour long concert promises to bring the entire original show from Seoul, which will showcase Super Junior’s famous dance moves that have created a worldwide craze, catchy songs that will prove that language is no barrier, and their familiar cheeky and charismatic antics that promises to entertain throughout the concert.

Super Junior Member Heechul Enlists For Military

The Super Junior members were clearly shaken by the temporary departure of one of their elder members. During Heechul's last stage in Inkigayo for Super Junior's latest single "Mr. Simple," the members specially leader Leeteuk, shed tears as they received the top prize for that week. Heechul kept himself strong as other Super Junior members shed tears. In his farewell speech, he said: "This is my last stage before entering the army. It is great to receive such a special award before I leave. Leeteuk is going through a difficult time lately but I am always thankful to him and other members. I love you, all of my fans. Thank you to our managers who put up with my bad manners up until now. This is the end because I am one who is not good at expressing."

Fans need not be too sad, however, as Heechul recorded a song with legendary singer Kim Jang Hoon. It was reported that the song will be released in mid-September.

With his iconic status in K-Pop, I am very sure that his fans will be waiting faithfully for him to return. In the meantime, enjoy these gorgeous Heechul photos. Stay healthy and happy, Kim Heechul!

After thanking his fans and the press, Super Junior member Kim Heechul formally enlisted in the army on September 1, and it created quite a stir in the entertainment industry.

Fans from Korea, Japan and all over the world waited at the entrance before his arrival. He arrived wearing a hat, which he immediately took off to greet his fans. He began with a warm smile, “I wasn’t going to greet anyone before enlisting, but I think my haircut came out okay.”

He continued with a bow, “I’ll come back as an adult. Thank you so much for coming all the way out here." After making a cute pose for the cameras, he added, “Please edit the pictures nicely if you’re going to upload them!" And although he stayed for only a brief moment, he made sure to wave to his fans before leaving the scene. The fans shouted in unison, “Be well, we’ll wait for you until the end.” Some emotional fans couldn’t help but shed tears over his enlistment.
Heechul will be receiving four weeks of training at the Nonsan Training Camp before beginning his service as a member of the public service personnel for 23 months.

Recently, pictures of Heechul in his army uniform surfaced online, causing fans to sigh with relief over Heechul’s smooth adjustment. The first picture shows the idol holding up his right hand as he pledges his military oath, while the second picture shows him confidently holding onto a gun, completely focused on his senior’s orders.

The E.L.F.s (Everlasting Friends, Super Junior fans) and the Petals (Heechul's fans) know that Heechul was involved in a vehicular accident back in 2006, which resulted in severe injuries in his lower body. Due to this, Heechul will be serving his country as a public servant for two years.

Aside from being part of the Hallyu idol group Super Junior, Heechul achieved the status of an iconic K-Pop idol for his immense power over the Internet. His Twitter account, @Heedictator, has more than 600,000 followers. One of Heechul's major Twitter achievements was when he registered as a worldwide twitter trend for four straight days from October 9 to October 12, 2010.

Ever the social media giant, Heechul used his Twitter account to formally say goodbye to his fans. On August 31, he posted several twitpics including one accompanied by a thank you message in 13 languages. He also posted his photo with his shaved head ready for military service.

Super Junior Debut And History

Super Junior is a popular Korean Boyband, and a thirteen member Korean boy band under the SM Entertainment label and production agency. Super Junior is one of the most popular Korean Boyband outside Korea besides Tohoshinki, SS501, or FT Island.

They debuted in 2005 with the single “TWINS (Knock Out)” as a twelve member group but added a thirteenth in May of 2006 with the release of their single U.

Super Junior’s popularity has spread across Asia and they have held concerts in such places as Thailand and Japan. Several of the members had previous jobs as VJs, actors and models previously, which helped to boost the group’s popularity. Super Junior is composed of 12 Korean members and 1 Chinese member.
The members are Leeteuk (the leader), Heechul, Han Geng, Yesung, Kang-in, Shindong, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Siwon, Ryeowook, Kibum, and Kyuhyun. The Chinese member, Han Geng, was chosen among 3,000 applicants through auditions held in China by SM Entertainment in 2001. The group initially debuted with twelve members on November 6, 2005, but since the addition of Kyuhyun in May 23, 2006, they have become a thirteen-member group.

As of 2010, only 10 members are active, due to Han Geng’s ongoing lawsuit against SM Entertainment, Kibum’s pursuit of other interests, and Kang-in’s leave of absence for mandatory military service.
Since the late 1990s, Korean talent agency and record label SM Entertainment has been holding annual auditions to scout new talents that complemented the success of pop groups H.O.T, S.E.S, and Shinhwa, all of which were created by SM founder Soo-Man Lee in the mid 1990s. Leeteuk and Eunhyuk were the first two members of the group to be recruited in 2000 under SM’s Starlight Casting System in Seoul.

In 2001, the company held their first overseas casting auditions and discovered Han Geng in Beijing, who was chosen among three thousand applicants. That same year, Yesung was discovered under Seoul’s casting system with his friend HeeChul. Sungmin and Donghae were also selected to be trainees after their appearance in an SM-sponsored contest. In 2002, Heechul and Kangin was recruited along with Kibum, who was discovered in Los Angeles. Siwon was casted in 2003 and Ryeowook in 2004, in which the latter was discovered through the Chinchin Youth Festival singing competition. In 2005, Shindong was selected.

Not long after boy band TVXQ’s debut in 2003, news about Lee’s unprecedented plans of forming another boy band quickly spread on the Internet. In early 2005,Lee confirmed the news and announced that an all-boy project group of twelve members would debut near the end of the year, promoting this singing group to be “The Gateway to Stardom of Asia.” Lee announced that that most members in this group were chosen because of their performing experiences as actors, MCs, models, and radio hosts prior debut. Heechul and Kibum were already established entertainers, and most of the other members had already made various kinds of appearances on television and media. Highly inspired by the rotational concept of Japan’s girl group Morning Musume, this group would also experience line-up changes, with new members replacing some selected members every year to keep the group constantly young and all-rounded. This concept was then newly introduced to the K-pop market.

For a while the group was rumored to be called O.V.E.R, the acronym for “Obey the Voice for Each Rhythm.” However, before the group settled with their current name, SM simply referred to them as Junior, a representation of the members’ young ages when they first became SM trainees. After the members’
showcased their different talents to the company at a picnic, the company finalized their concept name to Super Junior. The group thereafter became officially Super Junior 05, the first generation of Super Junior.
Super Junior 05 made their pre-debut on the Korean channel Mnet on September 11, 2005. At the showcase, they performed various styles of hip hop dancing. The group danced to B2K’s “Take It To The Floor.” Han Geng, Eunhyuk, and Donghae also performed a separate dance away from the group, dancing to Usher’s “Caught Up.” However, the performance did not air on television until May 16, 2006 as a segment in the Super Junior Show, the group’s first television documentary.

Super Junior-K.R.Y
Super Junior-K.R.Y, established in November 2006, is a trio formed by Kyuhyun,
Ryeowook, and Yesung. The company discovered that these three members developed a particular personal
and subsequent fan-base that was separate from the rest of the group, and how they also had similar musical qualities.hey therefore grouped these three members together to perform particular songs to target a more mature audience. Being amongst the most vocally powerful members of the group, Super Junior-K.R.Y are credited to singing mournful, R&B-style ballads, a style that has proven very popular in recent years although stagnation in the style’s development is causing it to lose its once fresh evocative power.

Super Junior T
Super Junior-Trot (Korean: officially known as Super Junior-T (Korean: 슈퍼주니어-티) is the second official sub-unit of Korean boy band Super Junior.They are the first idol group known for capitalizing trot music, the oldest form of Korean pop music. Super Junior-T contains six Super Junior members, Leeteuk (the leader), Heechul, Kang-in, Shindong, Sungmin, and Eunhyuk.

Super Junior-T has released only one single in the short span of their career before they were
announced to be on hiatus in 2008. The single “Rokuko” was Korea’s sixteenth best-selling record and
the number one best-selling single of 2007, according to the Music Industry Association of Korea.In November 2008,the subgroup returned with a debut in the Japanese music industry, releasing the Japanese version of “Rokuko.”

Super Junior M
Super Junior-M, often referred to as SJ-M, is the third official sub-unit of Korean boy band Super Junior. They are the first international music group in the Chinese music industry to have members of both Chinese and Korean descent, and are also the first group produced by Korea’s CT (Culture Technology) organization, created through a comprehensive localization strategy.Super Junior-M consists of Super Junior members Han Geng (the leader), Donghae, Siwon, Ryeowook,Kyuhyun, and two non-Super Junior members, Henry and Zhou Mi.

Super Junior, a South Korea Boy Band, return in Kpop industry with their most anticipating album “Bonamana 미인아”. Bonamana will be their 4th studio album.

Super Junior released the album with 10 members (originally 13 members) and the album still selling over 36,000 copies on the first day of release.

Single Bonamana is a African Rhythms, which is widely defined to be in a electropop funk style, and a majority of the song is concentrated on autotuned vocals.

This album, which is set to be released on the 13th May, sold 64,800 copies online and 133,685 copies offline for a total of 198,485 copies, showing the magnitude of the interest that fans have generated for this comeback.

Super Junior Is Our Imaginary Best Idol

Unlike in other country like US or even in Malaysia, entertainers in Korea is very widely open with their life. Their aim is to be as close as possible to the fans. They posting what are they doing everyday, what kinda clothes they are wearing now and everything. They are using many medium such as Twitter, mini hompy or even when the fans see them on the streets, they willingly letting their photo being taken by the fans. They also have very special relation with their fans and acknowledging them appropriately. The fans will name themselves, in the case of Super Junior, their official fans name is E.L.F abbreviation from Ever-Lasting-Friends. This culture never exist consistently in Malaysia.

During the fever of Akademia Fantasia long time ago, many obsess fans will gather among themselves to show support for their chosen student. But that never last long. Up until now I never heard any Siti Nurhaliza's fanclub officially, or even if they do, they didn't catch reporter's attention. Siti also seldomly mention them in any occasions. Different in Korea, especially for Super Junior, their fans playing a very very important role. They will mention E.L.F in most or can be said in each occasion. Whether when they win something, interview, concert or even in their Twitter or mini hompy. The existence of Super Junior is caused by never ending support from their fans whether an official one like E.L.F.

Agree or not, Super Junior is more loose compare to other idol. They have more freedom to express who they are. They are more enjoy to watch. If they've been invited in any programs, the MC won't be disappointed. They will entertain us and we may start to think they as our own best friends. We laugh at their action, we shed tears when story about Donghae's father pop out, we feel happy when Shindong reveal his upcoming marriage, starting to miss Kangin's big mouth or we start to wonder who will lead the boys after Leeteuk and Heechul enlisted in army.

Slowly they become our imaginary best friend, or start to talk about them in real life like we have live a day with them. Before this, only F.R.I.E.N.D.S can drag me to their world but now, I have another world to enter. Both Central Perk and this boys gimme a huge impact in my imaginary world. I thought nothing can beat F.R.I.E.N.D.S but Super Junior did it. These two phenomena sit at the same place in my Syahmi in Imaginary Land. But don't get me wrong. I'm not crazy, but imagination is good for our mental health. A good imagination will lead to a proper lifestyle.

I believe more on Heechul. He is one of the factor why people start to recognize Super Junior. He's so legendary until he can change the anti of him to be his fans. He's very honest in giving his opinion, something that be considered as taboo in Idol world in Korea. When he's receiving a compliment, he always agree with it while other idol will deny it. When been asked about a gossip, he won't save it only for him. He'll leak it to the media. Been rumored as gay, kissing his own SuJu brother, makin suicide statement, going out with many girls, posting his picture while wildly partying and so on and so forth. People might hate him, but eventually thanking him for his honesty in showing who is he himself. He's also the only idol that have courage to break many taboos. While many idol like to play safe, he comes with many charms, uniquely charms.

Yeah, they are the only insane group in this world bravely putting each members in different Sub-Unit. First with SUJU-K.R.Y, then they comes with SUJU-T, SUJU-M and SUJU-H refer to Kyuhun-Ryeowook-Yesung, Trot, Mandarin and Happy respectively. They tackle us with different kinda music produce by various concept. We will never-endingly explore their music. Not mentioning various of program whether they star in it or involve directly. After going with different Sub-Unit, surprisingly they made their world famous comeback with Sorry Sorry. After being apart for more than a year and a half, they manage to boom us with only one hit. This is what Super Junior is made of.

Han Geng Is Dating Jiang Kaitong?

Rumors of Super Junior‘s Hankyung (28) dating a Chinese actress named Jiang Kai Tong (23) have been spreading like wildfire.Speculations arose after February 12th, when a Chinese netizen posted on their Weibo (a Chinese SNS service), “Hankyung has left for the Maldives with Jiang Kai Tong and her parents.”The netizen also posted a snapshot as evidence and wrote,“This is a photo that shows Hankyung leaving the airport to head off to Maldives.”Later, another netizen claimed, “On the night of February 4th, I saw Hankyung buying a ticket at a movie theater in Mudanjiang.”

Remembering that Jiang Kai Tong had posted pictures on her Weibo on February 1st that indicated that she was in Mudanjiang, netizens commented, “Maybe he was on a date with Jiang Kai Tong?”Additionally, on February 4th, Jiang Kai Tong posted on her Weibo, “During my lifetime, if a person like this is there, I’ll be satisfied” – adding even more fuel to the fire.

Rumor has it that Super Junior‘s Han Geng (Hankyung) is dating a Chinese actress Jiang Kai Tong. On February 12th, 2012, a netizen posted on Weibo (a Chinese social networking service) that Han Geng left for the Maldives with Jiang Kai Tong and her parents.

The netizen also provided proof with the picture below of Han Geng and Jiang Kai Tong at the airport. The netizen wrote,“This is a photo that shows Hankyung leaving the airport to head off to Maldives.”
Overseas Korean media “ONBAO” reported that ex-Super Junior member Han Kyung was seen with Chinese actress Jiang Kaitong at the airport and other areas. On February 12, one netizen wrote on Weibo, “Han Kyung, his new girlfriend Jiang Kaitong, and her parents are at Chengdu Airport on their way to Maldives.”

Earlier this month, the actress wrote “I would be happy if there was just one guy like this in my lifetime” on her Weibo, piquing netizens’ interests.

A representative of Jiang Kaitong’s management agency stated, “We cannot confirm whether the dating rumors are true.” Han Kyung’s management agency has yet to make an official statement.

Previously on February 4th, 2012, another netizen claimed that she saw Han Geng purchasing a ticket at a movie theater in Mudanjiang. Mudanjiang was the same place that Jiang Kai Tong had indicated she was at around February 1st.

Also on February 4th, Jiang Kai Tong left a cryptic message on her Weibo saying,“During my lifetime, if a person like this is there, I’ll be satisfied”Jiang Kai Tong’s agency released a statement saying,

“We too learned about the relationship on the internet. We do not know about the personal lives of celebrities. Thus, we can’t offer any answers… Jiang Kai Tong is currently on a break. If she really is dating, then we will respect her and leave the decision up to her.”

Both Han Geng and Jiang Kai Tong’s agencies have yet to confirm whether there is a relationship or not, so as of right now, we’re just left with playing the guessing game.

Super Junior’s Magic Is Tremendous

Super Junior’s (SuJu) magic is tremendous. For the sake of watching this Korean boyband, hundreds of teenagers were willing to queue up at Grand Indonesia since the dawn on Sunday (17/4).
They wished to get the Tribune 2 ticket which costs 550000 IDR. But some of them had to accept the disappointment because the cheapest tickets were sold out soon after the stands opened at 10am. As scheduled, SuJu itself will perform on the upcoming June 4th.
Desty, one of the fans from Kalibata was one of the fans who was disappointed, because she couldn’t get the ticket she wished for. “(I) have been queuing since 7am, (and) I couldn’t get a ticket. I want the Tribune 2 which is 550000 IDR. I left home at 5:30am, (but) apparently there were people who slept on the parking field since 3am. The event committee has given the queuing number. I thought that the ticket would start selling at 10am, but apparently at 10am (they) only had to pay,” she said, sighing.
Desty admitted that she liked the boyband SuJu because their voices are good. “Their dancing is also good. (They’re) also handsome. Since elementary school I liked to watch Korean film. When SuJu debuted, (I) liked them right away. Once I listened to them, (I) took note of the lyrics, listened frequently, and memorized them,” said the teen who admitted that she memorized 10 SuJu’s songs.
Tita who lived at Fatmawati area, also admitted that she was disappointed because she couldn’t get the ticket. “Actually (I) wanted to buy Tribune 2, but it has been sold out. The price of Tribune 1 ticket keeps changing, and the information on Internet is not very clear, so I’m confused,” she said.
Rina and four of her friends were lucky. “(We) put in great effort to get it. We’ve been queuing since the dawn, we now get the payment receipt, we only have to pay. If (we) can meet (them), (we) want to give them hats, ask for signatures, and also take pictures together,” she explained.
Super Junior or also known as SuJu/SJ is a Korean boyband which consists of 13 members, namely Leeteuk, Heechul, Han Geng, Yesung, Kangin, Shindong, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Siwon, Ryewook, Kibum, dan Kyuhyun.
They will be the main performer on the Korean Idols Music Concert Hosted in Indonesia (KIMCHI) event which will be held at Istora Senayan, on the upcoming June 4th 2011. The tickets are sold in various types, such as VIP (2500000 IDR), Festival 1 (2000000 IDR), Festival 2 (1500000 IDR), Tribune 1 (2000000 IDR), and Tribune 2 (550000 IDR).
According to Sean Sudwikatmono, W Production’s Managing Director, on the press conference of KIMCHI 2011, for fans from other cities, the promoter will provide online ticketing service. “The online tickets will be sold after the public sales, and hopefully they are not sold out yet”, he said.
The rapidly sold-out ticket can be a proof that K-Pop or the music from Korea have never had a lack of fans. Korean music has now become one of the well-loved genres other than Indonesian music and western music.
It is known that before this, K-Pop fans also have been waiting for Kim Jaejoong, Park Yoochun, and Kim Junsu who are gathered together in JYJ. The tickets for the show at Sentul on April 9th have also been sold online. However the boyband’s management cancelled the concert in Indonesia in the end, with the reason that the promoter who brought them to Indonesia, Dreamcatcher Indonesia (DCI), was not very professional. Other than Indonesia, CJes Entertainment, who is JYJ’s management company also cancelled the concert in Singapore.

Super Junior’s Kim Heechul Dumped By His Celebrity Girlfriend?

On the episode of SBS’s Strong Heart aired on June 6, Kim Heechul confessed about his previous relationships.
Kim Heechul confessed, “Like many misunderstand, I had girlfriends in the past. I may disappoint you, but I had a girlfriend even after my debut. Actually, my girlfriend was a celebrity.”
“But I always got dumped. My ex-girlfriend dumped saying, ‘Do you really love me?’ ,” added Kim Heechul. Lee Young Ah, Kim Heechul’s best friend explained, “Heechul is a good guy as a friend, but he doesn’t know what to do with his girlfriend.”
Kim Heechul said, “I’m always shy around my girlfriend and if she gets mad at me I just kiss her. And I spend long time picking a present, but when delivering it, I tend to throw it to her.” His dating style received boos and jeers from the actresses on the show.
To the question, “Do you have no problem letting your girlfriend go if she wants to break up with you?” Kim Heechul answered, “I have to let her go. I cannot hold her back although I don’t want to let her go.” He continued, “Sulli is 11 years younger than I am and she says, ‘I just need to avoid guys like you, right?’”
Kim Heechul said, “In 2010, I went out with a celebrity and I talked with my boss and press agent beforehand to write an article that I had chased after her if scandal breaks out. It was my way to protect her because once media finds out about dating, it is always female celebrity who gets bigger damage.”
He added, “In the meanwhile, I was inattentive to my girlfriend. When she called me because she missed me, I would go ‘I’m in the middle of the meeting’ and at the end, I got dumped. I’m single now, but I wouldn’t know what to do when I have a girlfriend in the future.”
Another member of Super Junior, Shindong joked, “Women tend to think that they can change Kim Heechul. They try to change him for about 3 months and they give up: they dump him.”

"Super Junior" Appears As A Word To Learn Korean In A Book

Super Junior's leader, Leeteuk, uploaded recently four pictures onto his Twitter account, each one of them showing pages from a Thai book displaying the word "Super Junior" as a way to learn the Korean Language.
But it looks like now we know who Hyorin’s partner is as local media reported she finished filming her episode with Super Junior’s Sung Min. An official from MBC told TV Report, “Sung Min and Hyorin finished recording their part for ‘Exciting Shake’ at the Nam San National Theater.”
Exciting Shake” will air during the Lunar New Year holidays. The concept of the show is similar to “We Got Married,” where celebrities are paired up with each other to create a simulated dating relationship.
The four phrases state: "Super Junior will go to Thailand tomorrow", "I like Super Junior's choreography", "I will wait for Super Junior" and "I wanna meet Super Junior soon".
He proudly stated: "The content in this Thailand's book for learning Korean language" and uploaded the four links at once.
A funny fact of his tweet is that he uploaded the four links in just one tweet with no spaces. So fans started teasing him saying things like: "Hey Ahjussi, use the space bar!", "Ahjussi, ahjussi, you don't know where's the space bar?" and also: "Cool!, I want that book too!" and "I thought at first that the link wasn't working, good way to save space eh?", the replies, caused a good laughter among fans and also showed how close are Suju's fans to their leader.
Good idea to use Super Junior as an example to learn Korean uh? Check out the pictures down below!

Super Junior’s Leeteuk Recently Became A Father

Super Junior’s Leeteuk recently became a father. He was selected as an MC for a childcare program, KBS JOY’s Super Junior and SISTAR’s Hello Baby. Leeteuk will raise a baby on the program.
The producer of the program explained the reason he chose Leeteuk is he looks like he will get married soon.
On the 24th, Leeteuk attended the press conference for the show.
Leeteuk and SISTAR members will raise a baby together and experience the role of parents. While they raise the baby, they will also learn many things about their lives.
Leeteuk said, “I thought I could practice being a father prior to my real marriage life through the show. I wanted to experience raising a baby since I was a boy.”
Leeteuk, however, doesn’t have any experience raising babies before. According to him, his parents said that he should raise a baby so that he will understand how hard his parents worked to raise him. Super Junior’s other members were worried about Leeteuk, but he was still confident. He said, “I’ve been raised a cat for four years. I will take care of the baby like I did to my cat.”
At the conference, the father and four mothers were taking good care of the baby even though they are young.
Netizens who have seen the post commented, “The members who are currently away must feel sad when they see this photo,” “What a good-looking bunch,” and “Hope you guys are together forever!”
