Recently, many netizens posted photos of meeting the top Korean group Oriental Shenqi and super junior. It is reported that the two major groups combined this time are going to Indonesia to record a travel program, and the broadcast time is expected to be in the second half of this year. This time, the combination of the two idol groups, Dongfang Shenqi and Super Junior, also caused countless netizens to burst into tears! As idols in countless people's youth, Dongfang Shenqi and Super Junior, for many people, they represent the youth and beauty of the past. This time they gathered together because of variety shows. When they put on classic actions from the former group, countless people shouted about this wave of memories, it was so touching!
What many people don’t know is that more than ten years ago, all the members of Dongfang Shenqi and Super Junior were trainees of the same period. In the early days of their debut, they all lived in the same dormitory, and the members of different combinations all came from the same hometown (Donghai and Yunho , Dayun and Jin Zaizhong ). In addition, Eunhyuk and Kim Junsoo are good friends who grew up together in elementary school. Kim Heechul introduced Han Geng to Kim Jae-jung, but Kim Jae-jung and Han Geng became close friends. Shen Changmin and Joo Kyu Hyun are a jealous relationship... There are so many beautiful friendships between these boys. Since 2003, they have become top Asian idols step by step from boys.
The former Oriental Shenqi and super junior not only have super popular in Korea, but also can be called myth combination in the entire Asia. As the two most amazing men's groups in SM Company, they were able to merge in such a way 15 years later, which makes us sigh that time passes so quickly. The teenagers who once ate and lived together have added a mature charm after the baptism of time. But time is also ruthless for them. 15 years ago they were a complete idol group. 15 years later, because of the different choices of the path, the Eastern Shenqi and Super Junior each withdrew to seek development.
First of all, Dongfang Shenqi, this five-person boy group founded in 2003, became the most popular boy group in South Korea at that time in just two years. In 2005, they began to explore the Japanese market. It was they who formed a wave of Korean singers among the Japanese. Some even commented that "after Dongfang Shenqi, there was no Korean boy group that could surpass them. Whether it was popularity or strength, they were miracles." But even though they had reached such a peak, Dongfang Shenqi finally did not escape the situation of the collapse of the combination. In 2009, Kim Jae-joon, member of the group, Park Yoo-chim, and Kim Jun-soo sued the agency SM Entertainment.
So after more than a year of lawsuit mediation, in the end, only Zheng Yunhao and Shen Changmin remained in the combination of similar activities. Kim Jae-jung, Kim Junsoo and Park Yoo-chi made their debut again in the form of "JYJ". It was not until 2012 that the three of them completely settled with their former agency SM Entertainment, and stipulated that the two parties shall not interfere in their respective performing activities in the future. Since then, the Eastern Gods of the Five-Man period ended here. When Dongfang Shenqi was having a contract problem with the company, the men's group Super Junior, also had a contract dispute with the company.
super junior is a 13-person idol boy group established by SM Entertainment in 2005. They are also the most successful boy group in SM Company since the Dongfang Shenqi. There is a saying that after a large group of trainees, SM company selected five people as Dongfang Shenqi debuted. The boss felt guilty about the other children who failed to be elected, so he selected 12 people to form the super junior (Ho Kyuhyun joined in 2006). Originally, the group was planning to develop for only 3 months, but the efforts of these teenagers extended the lifespan of the group indefinitely. In 2009, the song "sorry sorry" was published, and they were gradually recognized by the world and gradually became the "Korean wave emperor" in the hearts of fans.
But at this time, the member of the group Jinji Fan terminated the contract with the company because he wanted to focus more on actor activities (but he officially left the team in 2015). In December 2009, Chinese member Han Geng also filed a request for termination. In June 2010, Han Geng officially left the group and returned to China to develop.Since then, the 13-person male group no longer exists, and the super junior with 11 people forming a group has started again. Now it is almost impossible to see a complete combination of 13 people. Putting aside the interests of the brokerage company, it is probably even more difficult to get 13 people to transfer schedules to cooperate together at the same time.
Whether it is the Oriental God or the Super Junior, they are unforgettable memories in our youth. "I don't care about eternity, I only care about having it." Although this sentence is usually used to describe love, I think it is probably appropriate to use it to describe these boy groups at this time! The height they have reached may be something that the younger generations today will never reach in their lifetime. In the memory of a generation, they are not only idols, but also witnesses of their passionate youth in their youth. Maybe it’s hard for us to see their initial group appearance again, but some touching memories will always be there! Perhaps from another perspective, regret is often accompanied by a kind of lasting and new beauty!
