...I answered questions on a bunch of forum threads and found my answers to be so informative (about myself lol), I copied my answers to repost here XD
~*~
How did you find Kpop?
I had a bunch of friends who are DBSK fans (this was back in 2006), and DBSK shot a cf in my country and my friends brought me to the venue! I feel really stupid now because I really wasn't able to savor the experience since I had no idea who they were XD After that my friends just started pimping/ supplying me with assorted Kpop songs and a few months later I was infatuated with SJ via listening to Miracle a couple hundred times XD
Favourite song of SF&S album
I can't pick just one XD I really like From U but I think all ELF love this song b/c it is really dedicated to us :3 I like Daydream too...actually all the ballads in the album are quite good! Props to the vocals for making it sound great!
I also like Rockstar...I made it into my ringtone xD Also because Kangin said he likes it XD I love Gulliver the raps sound cool and Ryeowooks short but memorable vocal
I just really love this album I guess XD
Which couples do you ship?
Right now I ship QMi, HenBer, YeWook. I think I first shipped KangTeuk because I had a Kangin bias and who can really resist umma :3 I think I also shipped SiHan, but when Geng left I shifted to SiMin XD Now I also like EunHae, basically because they ship themselves a lot lmao XD <3
Addendum: non SJ ship: Khuntoria! XD
Things you do now that you didn't do before k-pop.
Go to another country to watch thier concerts XD My first foreign concert was actually DBSK, but the following year I found myself flying to BKK to watch SS1 XD So happy I did as I was able to watch all 13 members. This year since there was no SS4 in Manila, I flew to BKK and Seoul to watch. It's really fun! my bank acct disagrees lol
SJ's Subgroups; Which SJ subgroup is your favorite?
Before I think I was Super Junior T, cos they were really fun performers and their stages were always fun! XD Now I like SJM too cos I love ZhouMi and Henry and the members there were really cream of the crop of SJ so they had really nice songs :)
Favorite Super Junior Variety Shows
I think it would be Explorers of the Human Body because that was just super crack XD So funny but informative! I also like Full House cos it was funny but also since it showed how they were when they just debuted XD
Intimate Note! I'm a Kangin bias but just everyone/everything on that show was just too funny but heartwarming too :3
Recently thier SNL appearance is really funny XD IDK if thier interviews count but I also enjoy the recent documentaries about them. I just really like knowing more about them
What the thing you can learn from the friendship of Super Junior?
I think that going thru hardships together can make a friendship stronger. Also honesty is always best. Even if they have fought at least in the end they apologize and become better friends.
Reason Why You Like Your Bias; what made you fall in love with your bias?
Currently my SJ biases are 2Woon: Youngwoon and Jongwoon. It's silly but I started liking Kangin after I was reading a fanfic in soompi and I realized that he has the qualities I like in guys. It wasn't easy to have KI for a bias since a lot of people found him to be a bully then, but I think he really speaks well and he is just an adorable bear/raccon xD
I started admiring Yesung during Attack of the Pinup Boys specifically his part in the song Wonder Boys. I was just in awe that he was able to hold his not that long. And I've just discovered new things to like about him! I really admire his talent and determination. My respect for him went up a notch recently when I watched SS4 in BKK I was able to see that his condition was not good, we was coughing so badly off the mic but was able to still sing so well! I don't think anyone except us who saw could tell he was sick. Just all the more props for him!
<3
super junior or solo; who should have a solo album?
Honestly, KRY is like super long overdue for a sub unit album xD I really hope they get one before Yesung goes to the army. I think the reason why they didnt have one before was because even if they are very talented singers, they were percieved to be among the unpopular members. I think we can all agree that that is no longer true and I really hope we can hear them sing their own songs soon :)
have you gone to korea?
I just went there for SS4 Encore. I stayed in Hongdae area. And I went to all the SJ shops / cafes. I guess you can say I went on an SJ pilgrimage lol XD The weather at the time was just going to summer so there was still a bit of a chill (refreshing after the sweltering summer from my country). I recommend saving a lot of money because the currency KRW is almost equivalent (give or take a few cents) to US dollar, so basically you are spending in dollars. Most things are not super cheap, but like albums are cheaper compared to when you have them shipped so buy a lot of those there.
EverySing is heinously overpriced xD do not buy from there unless you really have money XD Or for things you can't get anywhere else. For example Catch Me If You Can musical merchandise were like 2,000 won more expensive in ES than if you buy at the theatre xD It's ridic!
Also you must get in shape if you are going to Seoul! the terrain there is really hilly so even if you are just walking around, it gets tiring. Also if you are planning on going around by subway, there are like several lines and it just goes deeper and deeper under ground T_T some lines do not have escalators so you have to bear it walking stairs. This is super tiring if you are not used to it. Just be prepared for that!
But gaaah I would go back to Korea in a second! <333
super junior,
