Henry Lau Chinese Name: Liu Xian Hua (刘宪华 - 劉憲華) Korean: 헨리 Nickname: Mochi Label: SM Entertainment Birthday: October 11, 1989 Height: 176cm Country: Canada (Toronto) Birthplace: Taiwan Family: Father (Hong Kong), Mother (Taiwanese) Expertise: Violin, piano, breakdance, drums, ballet, Latin dance, singing Education: A.Y. Jackson Group: Super Junior M Position: Vocal, Rap. Side Composer, Main Dancer First Appearance: Attack of the Pin-Up Boys: Flower Boys, Series of Terror Casting: SM Entertainment Global Audition 2006
Debut: Rumors of Super Junior’s 3rd subunit called Super Junior China surfaced after Henry’s appearance on KBS Music Bank alongside the 13 Super Junior Members themselves. Yet the subgroup did not officially debut until April 8th of 2008 with the remake of Super Junior’s hit song “U”. From then on Super Junior M became one of the most in demand boyband in China.
Only 13 Campaign In autumn of 2007, Henry was featured in the comeback song and music video of famous idol group Super Junior. While being dubbed as the “violin boy”, rumors of Henry becoming the 14th member of Super Junior soon followed. The rumors were later fueled by Henry’s fixed guest performers to Super Junior’s Comeback stages. As a protest from Super Junior’s Fanclub (ELF), the only 13 campaign was initiated. ELF began buying SM stocks, giving Henry the silent treatment during Super Junior Concerts, and sending cyber attacks directed towards Henry on SM’s official website and Super Junior’s official website. The attacks grew worse when news of Super Junior’s newest subgroup “Super Junior China” surfaced. Even after Henry’s debut ELF continues to protest by attacking Super Junior M’s official website the night it was established by Sohu.com. Currently the only 13 campaign is slowly fading with older ELF members expressing their acceptance of Henry into Super Junior M. However younger ELF continues with their protest by either giving him the silent treatment during Super Junior concerts or chanting “Protect only 13” when Henry steps on stage.

mehh, actually it isnt a good thing that you took it out cause serenity said she wun be updating it if anyone spreads it around ^^''
BUT, dayum. im seriously attracted to him, the way he moonwalks and plays the violin at the same time. thats sexiness to the max. his hair looks so silky and nice, the style is nice too .. he can sing, dance and is a violin prodigy. he can also play the piano. DAYUM like what do you need more in a boy? ne?`hahaha
he goes to a secondary school in toronto, won several medals and competitions in playing the piano, violin and dancing. his school said that his speciality is to hiphop dance and play the violin at the same time, as we can see in the vid eh ? ;>
he doesnt speak korean, nor chinese. they said hes pretty much "white-washed" or so, meaning hes like a normal american boy stuck in a hot chinese body ROFL. but there was this clip, he said 'chua' = korean for i like, or good i think? - that was kyoooootness ;]].
i guess its obvious that he got my attention LOLOL! HENRY FOR THE WIN!

Popseoul is pretty mean to him, but then again, when isn't she?
QUOTE
Did you notice the random violin solo during SuJu’s debut performance on Music Bank? That random violinist was Henry, a new Chinese talent to sprout from the well-known celebrity-churner SM. Like Zhang Li Yin, Henry was discovered at SM’s world auditions (2006) and his talents are supposedly multi-faceted. To give him a leg-up, SM gave him the violin solo in SuJu’s “Don’t Don,” which got many fans and the media talking.
It will be nice to see more foreigners trying to learn Korean and break into the Korean market. However, Chinese imports such as ZLY and Han Kyung, haven’t achieved much. Based on their ‘years and years’ of training, the results were disappointing so far. Do you think Henry has what it takes to make it in Korea?
wow popseoul is harsh! Who is she? or what is it? idc what she says I love Henry anyway.. full advertising him on all the sites I'm active on LOL<3

So as everyone has probably heard, Sm is making a new Superjunior sub group, SuperJunior China, and Henry is going to be in it.
That news made all suju fans very, very unhappy. They're fine with making a new subgroup but they're not fine with henry being in it since henry isn't a part of superjunior. Sm doesnt understand the meaning of a subgroup. To be in a sub group, you actually have to be in the actual group in the first place.
So all fans are protesting and busy signing petitions. Some even go as far as bashing Henry.
I pity henry. he's the biggest victim here. I'll be very hurt if i was henry. Sure, his talents will be wasted in suju, and as a solo artists, i dont think he can make it. And he doesnt even speak chinese, so WHATS THE POINT ? But its not like he WANTS to be public enemy number 1. Poor guy.

at Busan Performance just nw, the Korean ELF shouted "Henry, Sorry, 13 people" when he is playing the violin part in dondon performance. credit: henry bar in baidu
god, fans suck.
this pic made fans of suju insult henry more because he was there, but not kyuhyun.
i feel like going "oh sweetheart, and hugging him or something." I feel REALLY bad for the boy and I don't care anymore if he enters suju c, or even superjunior. I still don't want him to enter, but for different reasons, because if he entered, imagine what ELFs would do to him. its amazing how everyone was fawning over him before the announcement, and treating him this bad after this. He is bound by contract. NOT HIS FAULT.
Is there like a way we can show support to him? ><
am i going to be talking to myself again?

I feel so bad for Henry. It's not his fault. It's LSM yet Henry is the one getting the bashing. It's amazing how everything turn around so fast. Couple days ago, everybody was like oh Henry, this and that. I thought I even heard some Henry chants when he performed but after this SuJu China report, people's like No to Henry, and bashing and more bashing. I just saw the latest Don't Don performance on Music Bank. People were purposely screaming 13 13 13 during Henry's part. I heard Henry cried but I am not positive. If it's true, gosh, my heart goes out to him.
Yeah, that picture will make Korean Elf mad b/c it does look like Henry is part of SuJu. He' posing with them and is even doing the usual Super Juni-OR sign. Yeah and add to the fact, Baby Kyu's not there.

azngal yeah, american. i think he HAS to start learning korean and chinese. i think it'll be part of the contract, because he's targeting asian fans, and most koreans and chinese dont know much english
ashie they're all saying he cried. i would too if i were him. TT~TT poor him

i saw it on soompi in the super junior thread ..
seriously, i wanted to find that post .. but the thread is moving to fast. it was a member saying that he/she knows henry personally or is some acquaintance and she could email him - so not really get his email and you can email him personally, prolly something with his privacy -
maybe you can browse through the pages if you have a soompi account : )
agree, i wanna make him feel better too =/ that poor is being hated by all the fans. even on bestiz theyre all saying .. ONLY 13 or so.

From Henry Baidu Bar
This is the conversation between Henry and a fan in Korea. (This is taken from her CY.)
I just translate into English.
SJ-China and SJ is 2 different groups. I am not going to join in SJ. There is a misunderstanding.
By HENRY
I know that there are a lot of people disliking me, but I will continue to work hard. I miss my father, mother, brother and my sister. Haven't seen them after I came to Korea.
By HENRY
During CB stage, I make a small mistake, didn't manage to follow the steps but I did it well yesterday. (Smile)
By HENRY
Actually I know Chinese but there isn't any chance for me to speak it. Everyone think that I don't know Chinese but I know it and still learning it. Just that it will be hard if you ask me to write it out. My name is 刘宪华 Liu Xian Hua.
BY HENRY
Actually I don't like the image of me in the album. My hair covered almost all my face. But company said that I haven't debut yet so I can't show my face.
BY HENRY
After coming to Korea for half a year, I don't really have much friends. Have to train and practice everyday. I have to wake up at 5.30am tomorrow (It is already 3.30am when he said this.)

CAN HENRY DECIDE ALL THE THINGS?? NO!! obviously NOT! he just did what LSM told him to or whoever told him
i hope ppl will get used to him being in SUJU, i mean, like when first kyu hyun was added in SJ, many ppl hated him too, they started changed their attitude after coz they just got used to it, plus the car accident made ppl feel bad for kyu hyun.
