SUPER JUNIOR (슈퍼주니어) is a 10-member boy group under SM Entertainment and Label SJ. They debuted on November 6, 2005 on SBS's Inkigayo with their debut stage for "Twins (Knock Out)", the title track of their first studio album Super Junior 05.
2005–2006: Debut with Super Junior 05, "Show Me Your Love", "U", SUPER JUNIOR-K.R.Y.
The group debuted with twelve members (Leeteuk, Heechul, Yesung, Hangeng, Kangin, Shindong, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Siwon, Donghae, Ryeowook and Kibum) on November 6, 2005, under the name 'SUPER JUNIOR 05' with the studio album of the same name. They promoted two tracks of the album: its powerful title track, "Twins (Knock Out)", and the bright, teen pop dance song "Miracle", which, according to the members, garnered a bigger public reaction. Their next release, on December 15, 2005, was a collaboration single with TVXQ! titled "Show Me Your Love". Heechul participated in the writing of the track. It was intended for them to be a rotational group, with members regularly being added and removed. That concept, however, faced opposition after the fans got attached to the group's current members. Only one member, Kyuhyun, was added before the concept was dropped, and the group, changing its name to simply SUPER JUNIOR, became a group with a fixed number of members. The digital single "U", released on June 7, 2006, was the first release Kyuhyun participated in. Its title track, "U", also gave the group their first music show win. They went on to win four more times, for a total of five wins. On August 10, 2006, Heechul sustained injuries after being involved in a car accident and had to have metal rods implanted in his leg. He had to rest for about six months. Though the injury never fully healed and he experiences chronic pain in his ankle, he continued participating in stage performances and concerts for a few years. However, after his leg's condition worsened around 2013, 2014, he started to participate less in activities like music show performances and to sit out live performances when necessary. Accomodations like getting a smaller part in the choreography or being only at the end of songs were also made. He still participates in song recordings and music video filmings. SUPER JUNIOR's first sub-unit, SUPER JUNIOR-K.R.Y., composed of Kyuhyun, Ryeowook and Yesung, made their debut on November 25, 2006, performing "The One I Love" on Music Bank. They are credited as the first official sub-unit of k-pop.
2007: SUPER JUNIOR-T, Don't Don, repackage
SUPER JUNIOR's second sub-unit, SUPER JUNIOR-T, composed of Leeteuk, Heechul, Kangin, Shindong, Sungmin and Eunhyuk, made their debut with the trot single album "Rokkugo!!!" on February 23. On April 19, Leeteuk, Shindong, Eunhyuk and Kyuhyun and two of the group's managers were riding in SUPER JUNIOR's van when they were involved in an accident. All four members sustained injuries - though Shindong's and Eunhyuk's were superficial -, and Leeteuk and Kyuhyun had to be hospitalized. The latter was in a critical state, but he eventually recovered, though he was absent from group activities for four to five months. The group's second studio album Don't Don was released on September 20. Its title track, with heavy metal sounds, contained lyrics criticizing society. Don't Don's repackage was released on November 5.
