Super Junior, which were formed in 2005, used to have 13 members - the most in a Korean boyband.
Three of their members are now inactive. Kang In is serving in the military, Kim Ki Bum is pursuing an acting career and Chinese member Han Geng is embroiled in a lawsuit against the band's management SM Entertainment, saying he was under a slave contract which worked him too hard.
The remaining 10 members are Lee Teuk and Kim Hee Chul, both 27; Ye Sung, 26; Shin Dong, 25; Lee Dong Hae, Lee Sung Min, Lee Eun Hyuk, all 24; Choi Si Won, Kim Ryeo Wook and Cho Kyu Hyun, all 23.
They will perform at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Jan 29 and 30. Tickets for the first day's show were sold out within half an hour. Organisers Running Into The Sun, a subsidiary of Fly Entertainment, promptly added the second date. That, too, is selling fast.
Named Favourite Artist, Korea, at the 2008 MTV Asia Awards, Super Junior have released four best-selling albums so far. The members reply through a translator in an e-mail interview with Life!:
