Super Junior is also one of the older idol groups now, with over five years of experience together. Will Super Junior ever be able to break Shinhwa’s record?
Super Junior’s Leeteuk showed his respect for Shinhwa through a special message. On March 23, Leeteuk tweeted, “Shinhwa hyungnim! You guys are so awesome! We’ll do our best to love and care for each other, too! Be nervous! Super Junior is catching up to you guys!”
Shinhwa is the longest-running idol group in K-Pop with a 14 year history. Since their debut in 1998, Shinhwa has released countless hit singles, including “T.O.P.,” “Chaos,” and “Hey! Come On,” under SM Entertainment. They worked under the same label as Super Junior until 2003, when Shinhwa’s contract expired and signed with a new management agency.
On March 23, Super Junior’s Yesung shared a family photo with his father and brother, under the caption that read, “The guys in our family, with my father and younger brother. Are we superior?”
In the photo, Yesung is staring at the camera with his father and younger brother, who all have strikingly similar features. Fans have been particularly impressed by his good-looking family members, lauding them for having “superior genes.”
Netizens commented, “Yesung’s brother is daebak! Is he also a celebrity?” “They’re so cute. I love his younger brother,” and “How can brothers have such good-looking faces?”
In fact, this is not the first time Yesung revealed his younger brother. He took several photos with celebrities in the past and is also quite well-known among Super Junior fans that frequent Yesung’s coffee shop in Seoul (Yesung’s younger brother works there).
