2005. Pre-debut. Cho Kyuhyun's singing talents were discovered after he won third place at the Chin Chin Singing Competition in 2005. He soon signed under SM Entertainment and was featured in the video remake of TVXQ's single "Hi Ya Ya" along with other Chin Chin idols.
2006. Debut and K.R.Y. Kyuhyun was added to Super Junior right before their 200th day Anniversary. Before his addition to the group, the original twelve members were said to be separating and "graduating" from the group as the band was still presented as a project group at the time, the concept being very similar with Japan's popular girl group, Morning Musume. Although Kyuhyun's addition initially brought in an unpleasant surprise and dissatisfaction within the group's fans who supported the original twelve members, his addition ended Super Junior's life as a project group and began its life as a permanent group. Kyuhyun was quickly accepted and acknowledged by the fans as a part of Super Junior.
Kyuhyun's first media appearance was mysterious and not acknowledged. He made his first appearance as a part of Super Junior in a news broadcast on May 23, 2006 when the group was introducing their comeback single, "U". Kyuhyun made his debut performance on May 27, 2006 at SBS's I-Concert performing the new single "U", where it was also the group's first comeback performance as a permanent group.
Super Junior achieved wide success with their comeback along with Kyuhyun who easily fit in with the members of the group despite just joining. He participated in the promotions, with numerous guestings on radio and TV shows together with his bandmates, most notable of which is his stint on the MNET Super Junior Mini Dramas where he played a villain and a protagonist in two of the episodes, showing early promise in acting.
He also became a regular guest DJ on Super Junior members' radio shows such as Kangin's ChunBangJiChuk radio show, Yesung's Miracle For You and on Eeteuk and Eunhyuk's Super Junior Kiss The Radio (SUKIRA) where every Wednesdays, he co-hosts the segment 'Find the 14th Super Junior Member' with SJ's Shindong and the two members.
November 5, 2006 - on KBS's Music Bank, Kyuhyun, along with Yesung and Ryeowook, who were dubbed as the three strongest vocalists of the group, debuted as Super Junior's first subgroup, Super Junior-K.R.Y. The trio, whose unit name was derived from the first letters of the members' names, was projected to perform ballads and amaze audiences with their live renditions. They performed "Han Saramanuel (The One I Love)" on their debut, which is one of the two songs they contributed to the original soundtrack of the tvN drama Hyena (하이에나). Kyuhyun however, also recorded a solo for the said soundtrack, entitled "Smile" which is somewhat of the jazz genre and which showcased the versatility of his voice. Also, this made Kyuhyun the first member of Super Junior to ever record a solo track.
By the end of the 2006, Super Junior – K.R.Y. has also contributed to two more soundtracks of two large-scale dramas that aired on SBS and MBC, respectively named Snow Flower(눈꽃) and Billie Jean, Look at Me (빌리진 날봐요). The sub-unit's activities continued simultaneously with Super Junior's who by the end of the year and in early 2007 were sweeping the awards due to the success of their single "U".
2007. The Accident and the Comeback. In the early morning of April 19, 2007, just one month before Kyuhyun's first anniversary in Super Junior, Kyuhyun, along with Super Junior members Leeteuk, Shindong, Eunhyuk, and two managers were all hospitalized due to a car accident when returning from a recording of the radio program Super Junior Kiss the Radio. The driver lost control of the vehicle as the van flipped over on its right side. Kyuhyun, who was sitting behind the driver's seat when the accident occurred, was the most injured and had a fractured hip, pneumothorax from fractured ribs, and facial scratches and bruises. Kyuhyun had been in the ICU ever since the night of the accident, but after six days he was moved to a regular hospital room, unexpected of his fast recovery. Kyuhyun also did not need the respiratory machine anymore to support his breathing. Kyuhyun was discharged on July 5, 2007 after 78 days.
With the announcements of Super Junior's second album release in September 2007, it was announced that Kyuhyun would make his comeback along with the rest of the members. This is despite being released from the hospital only two months before and him not being fully recovered yet. This decision was made by Kyuhyun himself, who often expressed his wish to perform with the group as soon as possible, for the love of his fans.
Kyuhyun's comeback performance, together with Super Junior, was on September 21, 2007 on KBS Music Bank, performing the new promo-single, "Don't Don." He joined the group in the other performances and promotions for the Second Album after the comeback performance, but was limited to coming to the stage only when it's time for him to sing his part as he still recovering and the choreography would still be too strenuous for him.
It was reported that he received his last surgery related to his accident, late October 2007 before the promotions for the second single "Marry U" started in November. After recovering from the surgery, he joined the others in performing "Marry U" on stage, this time dancing to the whole song since it was a slower one with easier dance steps.
By December 2007, Kyuhyun has joined his bandmates in their SBS TV show "Explorers of the Human Body", appearing in the show's seventh episode. However, it wasn't until Episode 11 (also referred to as the "Kyumong" episode by fans because it involves archery in historical outfits) which aired on January 10, 2008 that Kyuhyun has been seen most active in the show.
2008. Super Show, Super Junior M and conquering Asia Only months after the fateful accident, Kyuhyun has participated in so many Super Junior activities, all because of his determination, amazing will power, and love for his craft and his fans. He overcame his injuries in less than a year, all in time for him to join Super Junior in conquering the rest of Asia.
On February 22, 2008, Kyuhyun joined the rest of Super Junior in kicking off their first Asia concert tour named "Super Show." The first set of concerts ran for three days, the 22nd, the 23rd, and the 24th and was held in the Olympic Stadium in Seoul, Korea. It was the first of the concerts to be held in 9 cities all across Asia. The second concert was held in Bangkok in July 12, 2008.
On April 8, 2008, Kyuhyun debuted with the third Super Junior subgroup, Super Junior-M (for Mandarin, formerly SJC for China) at the 8th Annual Music Chart Awards and with the release of their first single music video, "U" - Mandarin version. This makes him part of two out of four sub-units of Super Junior to date. Super Junior M or SJ-M was formed to penetrate the Chinese market by releasing albums and performing in Mandarin. In China, Kyuhyun uses his Chinese name Kui Xian and continues to learn the language. As of today, the group has been garnering huge sales and gaining huge popularity in China and even in Hong Kong and Macau, where they have also received awards despite debuting only a few months before.
In between SJ-M activities in China, Kyuhyun also participated with Super Junior in their activities in Korea and all across Asia. One event would be the Dream Concert that was held in Korea on the 7th of June. This marked Kyuhyun's first participation in the event since his debut as he couldn't attend in 2007 because of his injuries. At the event, aside from performing with Super Junior, he also performed cover songs with other SM artists on the opening of the concert, once again showing his vocal prowess.
Other activities so far that Kyuhyun has participated in around Asia are Super Junior's fanmeeting in the Budokan Arena in Japan, dubbed as 1st Premium Event in Japan, which marked the group's debut in the Japanese Market. He also performed with Super Junior in the 2008 MTV Asia Awards held in Genting, Malaysia last August 2nd where the group won the Favorite Artist of Korea award.
Also, he has performed in the SMTown concerts in Korea (August 15, 2008) and in Shanghai (September 13, 2008). During the concerts, aside from his band's songs Kyuhyun also performed a duet with Shinee member Jonghyun entitled 'Goose's Dream' and also, there was the much anticipated live performances of "Just For One Day", the song he featured in on CSJH The Grace's album 'One More Time, Ok?' that was released in May 2007.
On September 2008, Kyuhyun topped the list in Arirang TV's Top 7 Most Loveable Magnaes of KPop Groups which was based on an online poll held in the station's website. During the announcement aired, Kyuhyun was described as a member with exemplary vocal skills and talent on and off screen which made him one of the most valuable members of the group. The winning the poll also somewhat exhibits Kyuhyun's popularity with the international Kpop fans.
Another milestone in Kyu's career came in October 2008 when he became a product endorser and shot his first TV commercial in Thailand, sans the other members of Super Junior except for Siwon. Early 2008, a poll was conducted by the Thai health and beauty products brand 12Plus where fans were asked for the Super Junior member who they wanted to endorse 12Plus alongside Siwon, who was working with 12Plus already in the previous years. Kyuhyun emerged as part of the top three with Kibum and Donghae, mirroring his popularity among Thai fans who fondly calls him 'Lucky'. He was in Thailand for the whole third week of October to shoot the commercial and do interviews and press conferences/fan meetings for the 12Plus Love Cologne.
The widely successful Super Junior M closed 2008 by doing a hit concert in HongKong and by receiving numerous awards in Chinese music award shows and gaining lots of endorsements. Due to SJ-M’s massive popularity, Kyuhyun also became one of the first Koreans to be in commemorative postage stamps in China, together with the rest of SJ-M.
2009 The 3rd Album and 7 Years of Love In progress
Hidden Text:
At the start of the year, Kyuhyun continued his Super Junior and Super Junior M activities going back and forth China and Korea for fanmeetings, concerts and ultimately preparing for SuJu’s 3rd album which was due for release on March 12, 2009.

Their comeback proved widely successful as Sorry, Sorry won ten awards from music shows alone and with their new album being their best selling release to date. The album also was a huge hit in other Asian countries like Thailand, Taiwan, China, and most recently, the Philippines.
Kyuhyun joined all the promotional activities for their album this time around and has finally appeared in numerous Korean variety shows with his hyungs (older brothers in the group). During his guestings he began showing his witty side and of course, his vocal prowess. Because of this, he earned much love and adulation from fans, non-fans and even celebrities.
On April 9, 2009 news on Kyuhyun’s first ever solo project was released. He was chosen by the famous singer/composer Yoo Young Suk to sing the title song on the latter’s 20th Anniversary album. The news showed Kyuhyun recording 7 Years of Love (7년간의 사랑), originally by White, Yoo Young Suk’s former band. The composer has worked with Super Junior during the recording of the 3rd album, having gifted the group with the song Shining Star.

A few weeks after his third anniversary with Super Junior, Kyuhyun performed solo for the first time during Yoo Young Suk’s 20th Anniversary Album Showcase held June 16, 2009, singing his version of 7 Years of Love. His appearance earned him lots of praise The digital single is to be released at the end of June and the album, which proceeds will go UNICEF was released in mid-July.

Although Kyuhyun's voice is classified under Bass, his voice is more bordering on the Baritone range.
What with rich low tones, controlled vibratos and smooth falsettos,
kyu's beautiful velvet chocolate tone stands out and helps define Super Junior's over-all sound.
Since he only came in during SuJu's comeback -- beginning with the single U -- (and was not even able to fully participate in all activities due to his car accident injuries), Kyuhyun was only able to fully mesmerize everyone with his amazing vocal range during KRY's activities, as well as with SJ-M's, and in the 3rd album. He is part of the few SuJu members who rendered all the background vocals for the current album, plus doing lead/major vocal lines in (almost) the entire line-up. He knows when to emphasize his vocal strength, and when to let the others shine. He can switch delivery of pitch & tempo from techno to pop to falsetto back-up support perfectly.
And since Kyu's articulation on foreign languages is impressive, his delivery is always stellar and easily melts the hearts of those who gets to hear it. His improved confidence shows in his voice when he hits his low and high notes, all with such amazing control.
He's giving top balladeers a run for their money

By now, we all should have known what a brat kyu is when he is with his hyungs. Thus, earning himself the nickname of "magnae on top" which kyu readily accept.
Back in the days where he used to guest on Kangin's Chunji radio, Kangin often referred to kyu as his elder or sunbae (senior) lol.
Quote
Kangin says... today's guests... oh these two... they're my elders, ryeowook and kyuhyun.
...
kyuhyun: hello~ i'm super junior's strong man, kyuhyun (this is normally kangin's introduction)
kangin: hello~ im super junior's magnae, kangin (kyuhyun's introduction). it's been a while since these sunbaes/elders have been here. talk to me in impolite form, it's okay.
kyuhyun: oh but it's on air i can't.
kangin: it's okay, you don't have to speak polite form.
kyuhyun: kanginah, go out and bring me some water.
kangin: ...................................... i said talk in lower form, not order me to do things.
Especially when Ryeowook and Kyu goes on Chunji together, it freaks kangin out so much he actually pleads them to not ever go again together.
Quote

Kangin: The two people who are joining us for Tuesday's new corner.. are here... ah, these people
Kyuhyun: The people who were meant to come are here~
Kangin: It's Super Junior's magnaeline... Ryeowooksshi, Kyuhyunsshi came today. Hello~
Ryeowook, Kyuhyun: Hello, we are Super Junior~~~
Kangin: How was the 10 minutes that you spent with us today? Okay, please leave now.
Kyuhyun: Okay~
Kangin: It been a long time, so why don't you guys introduce yourselves
Ryeowook: Ah yes, I'm Super Junior's Ryeowook~
Kyuhyun: Yes, I'm Super Junior's Kyuhyun~
Kangin: Ah yes welcome... I definitely remember asking before for you two to please not come onto my radio show anymore~
Kyuhyun: I think the writer noonimdeuls like bothering Kangin a lot, so last time on your last "Can't you give me an award?" segment they called for us too... anyways...
Ryeowook: I think the listeners really like it when us two come out too~
Kangin: Okay but I'm requesting that you two please don't come on together.. I'm asking earnestly~
Kyuhyun: Yes, okay
Kangin: I'm really earnestly asking.. I usually don't use that term, but you two... whenever you come and go I feel like I lose all my energy, and I feel like I just suffered something because of you two... really...
Ryeowook: Not me, but probably because of Kyuhyunsshi~
Kangin: It's because of those kinds of words...
Kyuhyun: Ah, it's like that~
You can see from most of their videos that the hyungs all give in to kyu a lot, mainly because he is the magnae and probably because they are scared of him too. Instead of retaliating physically, Kyu will retort with his witty remarks.
In SJ's episode of Initimate Note, Kyu was totally driving his hyungs crazy with the witty remarks and notes he wrote. Kangin even called him SJ's very own Kim Gura, a tv host well known for his sarcastic and straight-forward remarks.
In the cut, he kept trying to deny that he was the one who wrote those notes the informal way but the hyungs all knew it was him, because he is indeed our well-known impudent magnae.
Not done yet! Needs more editing lol.

LISTEN…
Music is said to be an instrument that connects people despite disparity in language. It can affect us in ways that enable us to smile, laugh, cry, and experience all kinds of feelings just by listening to the melody of the song and how it is delivered by the singer.
Kyuhyun, gifted with an inimitably outstanding voice, is one of those singers who are able to bring their audience to the throes of sadness or to the comfort of tranquility through vocal expression. However, his musicality does not end in rendering songs beautifully with his voice. What we have witnessed Kyu do in the past 3 years is an occasional display of his skillful expression of emotions in songs written in languages that are not his own. To speak or to sing in your native tongue flawlessly is tough as it is, but to do it in a foreign language is an even more challenging call.
LEARN…
Back in 2006, in one of the Super Junior Mini Drama episodes, the group went to Japan, and Kyu was able to make a couple give him 100 yen in a game due to his singing of “Tears,” a Japanese song by X-Japan. Two lines were all it took to make the pair hand over their coin. Even Kangin was surprised to know that Kyuhyun knew a Japanese song. That was a moment of discovery for Kyu fans who got to know that Kyu learned songs that were penned by foreign writers.
As a member of SJ-M, so much preparation had been done in order to produce an album that had him and his Korean groupmates sing believably in Mandarin. ‘Til this day, Kyu cannot claim to be the most improved in speaking the language due to lack of vocabulary and deeper understanding of Chinese, but once you let him say things he knows and sing songs that he has learned in the aforementioned language, you will not feel that it is a Korean who is doing the talking and singing. As stated in the section above [Kyu’s Favorites], his favorite expressions are “Wo Bu Hui Han Yu”(I don't speak Mandarin), “Tai Bu Xiang Hua Le” (That’s unreasonable), and the very popular, “Fuwuyuan-r.” (Waiter). In Chinese shows, he would utter very little Chinese, but the little he knows was enough to endear him to many fans. His pronunciation leaves little to be faulted. In SJ-M’s CRi interview last April 2008, the host asked Kyu if it is true that he can pronounce Mandarin words well. Kyu answered humorously on the affirmative, but it was leader Hankyung who confirmed it. The latter also proudly hugged Kyu in the group’s guesting at Very Big Star when Kyu said the Chinese tongue twister like a native. In addition to the spoken words, he gained the respect of more fans when he sang “Bu Rang Wo De Yan Lei Pei Wo Guo Ye” (Not Letting My Tears Accompany Me Through the Night), originally sung by Qi Qin. According to Ryeowook, Kyuhyun put a lot of effort into studying the song after a fan gave him a copy of Qi Qin’s cd. From the Chinese fans came comments saying how Kyu was able to pronounce the words very clearly and with so much passion.
In Thailand, his popularity keeps on growing because even if he has not sung any Thai songs yet, his expressions of choice never fail to evoke loud cheers from the audience. He may have said “Rak Na Dek Ngo” (I love you silly baby) so many times already, yet his Thai fans continue to squeal in so much delight when they hear him say it. In an SJ-M interview that came out recently in Arirang, he also chose to greet the televiewers in Thai instead of greeting in Korean. If that doesn’t earn points with the Thais, I don’t know what will.
More than a year ago, Kyu along with Yesung and Ryeowook also had the chance to sing “Feliz Navidad,” a Christmas song in Spanish. When Kyu sang it, his R’s rolled of his tongue without any difficulty, and his pronunciation of the words made it seem like the song is a natural part of his usual repertoire.
The attraction to Kyu begins primarily from recognizing his vocal gift, but when non-Korean fans heard him sing in English, all the more that the English-speaking fans felt a connection with him. For one who was born and raised in Korea, his ability to pronounce English words very well comes as a marvelous surprise for a lot of people. As many believe, if only Kyu can focus on learning the language more extensively, he can advance his international appeal. So far, the fans have had the pleasure of hearing him sing “Now and Forever,” “A Whole New World,” Heal the World,” “White Christmas,” “All I Want for Christmas is You,” and a number of English words scattered in different SJ songs. He sang these with confidence and ease, which made the listening part by the viewers even more enjoyable.

LOVE…
Japanese, Mandarin, Thai, Spanish, or English as a spoken language for him may be far-fetched at this time, but the sparse occasions we have heard him speak and sing almost masterfully in those languages only add to the amazement with and love for this singer. His flair for the different languages and stamping his own style with depth of feelings in singing those songs make all of us admire him more. His efforts to learn and extend himself to his international fans cannot and should not be discounted. His strong regard for and dedication to making himself understood by fans around the world is something that is much appreciated.
Kamsahamnida. Arigato. Xie xie ni. Khob khun krab. Gracias. Thank you. Whatever language it is that we speak, we thank Kyu for reaching out to us through his songs. With eagerness to connect with us, with sincerity in his voice, with fervor in carefully choosing the words to surprise us with his sweet messages, indeed, Kyuhyun has touched our hearts in more ways than one. Regardless of language, how wonderful it is to be united with him thru music.
Okay, this might be an exaggeration, but we're seriously going to compile his different facial expression (and mannerisms, possibly) because he's often too amusing not to notice. Let me give you a preview:
This is... About-to-cry Kyu:
See what I mean? LOL. We'll edit this when we finish! Please anticipate!

Kyuhyun is known for his excellent singing voice, but if there is another thing that is always and almost exclusively associated with him, that would be his passion for gaming. With many nicknames attributed to him, it is “Game Kyu” that one would often hear people, especially his SJ hyungs and managers, call him. Even Kyu himself favors that monicker.
As early as 2006, the year he joined Super Junior, Kangin and Leeteuk, in their radio shows, would already mention about Kyu’s zeal in this hobby. When he is in the dorm, playing computer games takes up much of his time.
credit: princekyu of YT
Back in his 1st year with the group, even if he had no bed yet, it would not stop him from playing his games on the floor. Kyuhyun also mentioned in one of his old cyworld entries that in his 3rd year in high school, he was supposed to prepare well for an important exam, but because he was so drawn to playing, he was not able to study well. However, the smart person that he is, he still passed his test.
On August 2008, he was shown on MBC Game It’s Cool watching competitors play Star Craft, one of the games he is known to be good at. He was there to support his friend, So Kyung Jung, who is a pro gamer.
So passionate is this guy in this hobby that his level of playing equates to a professional gamer’s standards. His hyungs in SJ-M even attest to how good he is.
“The Kyuhyun gaming part: basically he's the most skilled, and once Donghae, Siwon and Henry were all playing against him, he won. Donghae says that Kyuhyun is not obsessed with gaming and only does it to relieve stress.”
[translated by xsingingfairiex of youtube]
“As for the gaming part, they say, Donghae, Siwon, Henry vs Kyuhyun. Even when they play 3 to 1 against him, they can't beat him. Donghae says also Kyu's a genius.”
[translated by eggy1004 of youtube]
On October 23, 2008, the SJ-M members were invited to guest on Ifensi. Donghae, Zhoumi, and Henry talked about how well Kyu plays computer and handphone games. (You may check out their description of Game Kyu here: SJM Ifensi Interview)
[translated by –dreamx of soompi]
In an interview for a Chinese publication (Easy Magazine) last December 2008, the SJ-M members were asked this question:
Who do you envy the most in the group?
Zhoumi: Kyuhyun. Everyday after our schedule he will be gaming in the dorm, unaffected by other things happening. If one can focus on only one thing everyday and not feel vexed over other stuff, he will be really happy.[translated by sohyz of Kyuhyun’s thread in asianfanatics.net]
Then a few days before 2009, the group guested on A Date with Lu Yu, a popular talk show in China, where Hangeng was quoted to say, “Kyuhyun is really smart especially in games.”
On March 18, 2009, Super Junior members, who promoted their album on Shimshim Ta Pa, were asked by Shin Young (female DJ) what other titles they want attached to their names aside from their group’s name. In the case of Kyuhyun, it was all about gaming once again.
Shin Young: What about Kyuhyun? What other roles do you want?
Kyuhyun: Uhm, Kangin, ah (realized his mistake)…Kyuhyun--professional gamer. (Kyu and his hyungs laughed)
Donghae: Pro gamer! Pro gamer!
Kangin: The debut of a professional gamer.
Shin Young: Is he the master at games?
Kyuhyun: That is what I want personally. Kyuhyun--game champion.
Hyungs: Oooooh!
Eunhyuk: You are so serious. You look like you are going to work hard to be a pro gamer.
Kyuhyun: Hahaha!
[translated by sugarzai of YT]
What is funny is that he likes to deny his game addiction occasionally. When he is not with the other members, his hyungs assume right away that Kyu is busy with his games. However, Kyu would say that he is preoccupied with reading. In YeoYooManMan last June 10, 2009, a clip was shown of the SJ members in the waiting area of a studio before their performance. Clearly, Kyu was shown playing his favorite Starcraft game.
While it is true that he also loves to read, when it comes to gaming, there is no denying that he is the KING in the dorm. Yes, Kyuhyun is THE resident game expert in Super Junior. With his intelligence, quick eyes, and nimble fingers, he has the right ingredients to make it big in the gaming industry if he decides to take his hobby to the next level.
As a member of Super Junior, Kyuhyun works hard to give his best to the fans, but when the stage lights are off, when the curtains are down, Kyu hies off to his own world and beats his opponents in cyberspace. He has gone through a lot in his young life, but he is one big fighter. It is often with fascination and amusement that we think of Game Kyu, but on a deeper level, hopefully you will allow your mind to see not only the superficial side of that nickname but rather see the victories he has had in hurdling the odds. Afterall, Kyuhyun has always been a winner in the game called life.
We are all anticipating each and every hairstyle that Kyuhyun is having. Some did not suit our tastes while some did make us swoon. After all, it's Cho Kyuhyun and so we couldn't help but fall in love with his oozing charisma whatever hairstyle he has. Here's to show the evolution of his hairstyle.

When Kyu Hyun joined Super Junior on May of 2006, he was set to live in the Suju dorm with the rest of the guys. I don't know when exactly he moved there but when he did, he was assigned to room in with DongHae and Sungmin but unfortunately, without a bed of his own.
Not alot of people knew of this arrangement (Bedless Kyu Hyun) until January 9th of 2007, about 8 months after he joined Super Junior, when he guested together with roomie Sungmin in Kangin's Chunji Radio show. Here is how the 'Bedless Kyu Hyun conversation' went:
I uploaded the conversation audio cut here, so you can hear them while reading the translation, unfortunately it wasn't veiwable radio... such a shame it wasn't viewable radio.
Quote
CHUNJI RADIO, January 9, 2007
Translation credit to Lalaloo of soompi
kangin: oh yea so what happened to your bed?
kyuhyun: [says something, i don't really understand]
kangin: no but honestly, you like sleeping on the floor better. even your computer is all over the floor.
kyuhyun: no, i like the bed better.
kangin: okay come over today, i'll give you my bed. i'm saying this on air so this is a real promise.
kyuhyun: eeteuk already promised me two weeks ago that he'll buy me a bed.
kangin: that person is different from me. i bet you somewhere at this VERY MOMENT he's lying to another dongsaeng.
kyuhyun: no, i trust eeteuk. he's the leader, i don't think he would lie to a fellow member.
kangin: no, he does that sometimes. he's done it to me couple of times.
kyuhyun: i know, it's not just once or twice.
kangin: i used to share a room with him and he was like "kangin ah~ i couldn't sleep." so i was like, "why?" and he's like "cause i was too worried thinking about you"
kyuhyun: yea, right. [it was something else but it means the same thing]
kangin: EVERYDAY it's a lie.
kyuhyun: it's okay, i hope someday i'll get to sleep on top of a bed. For now I'll have to accept the fact that I'm a magnae.
kangin: noo!! it's not cause you're the magnae~
sungmin: yea, it's not cause you're the magnae. We really want to buy you a bed but there's not enough room right now.
kangin: ahjummas keep telling us to move, people/neighboors keep telling us to move~ so we were talking about buying it once we move..but we weren't sure.
kyuhyun: no it's okay, i'll accept the fact that i'm the magnae
kangin: IT'S NOT THAT!!!
When I read about this I was like shocked because it's been too long since he has joined Suju and still he has no bed?? I started to get more curious than ever so I looked for more translations about Bedless Kyu (actually this is how my backreading in Soompi started hahaha). It turns out, after that broadcast, the fans became more and more curious of Kyu Hyun. Moreso because the day after, January 10th, 2007, during Kyu Hyun and Sungmin's guesting this time on Eunhyuk and Eeteuk's SUKIRA (Super Junior Kiss the Radio), the guys were still talking about Kyu's bedlessness and then Kyu Hyun debuted his 'Bed Song CF' to the tune of Super Junior's Believe. And LOL he really came prepared. I was ecstatic when I found the video for the broadcast so I uploaded it here, for you to watch.
070110 Sukira - Kyu's Bed Song
Translation:
I was so lucky to able to meet bed
because bed would make me smile/laugh by just being near me~
I could find bed even if it goes far away.
Because bed is smiling inside of me
credit La'MISS:Fairy @ soompi
See how Sungmin was giggling as Kyu was singing so seriously about his non-existent bed? After that, the fans grew more and more interested in Kyu Hyun saying they all thought was this shy, boring kid but then he's surprising them with his wit and funny antics as time goes by. He even composed his bed song, for heaven sake.
And then another comment surfaced a few days after the Sukira broadcast:
Quote
(akirasberry @ Jan 14 2007, 07:36 AM)
this kyuhyun bed thing is going so far o.o
one time kangin came back from his schedule and found kyuhyun sleeping in this dunkin donut tent LOL... they said he got upset when they threw it away..
With that ^^ I was like DUNKIN DONUT TENT???
It turns out, it even came to a point where the fans made a video out of the bedless situation showing the Donkin Donut tent at the Suju house. Too bad I couldn't find that video, it must have been taken down... but I think it was a blue and orange tent.. and probably a small one! haha.
(edit: I found a picture of Kangin with the tent in the back ground.. and nicolamartinne from Asian Fanatics found another photoshopped one of the tent it was quite funny. haha. here they are:
And then at the same day, a Kyu comic strip surfaced:
translation credit to jazzler of soompi:
Quote
Late one night, Leader Teuk was woken up from his sleep cos he could hear Kyuhyun's voice. Eeteuk asks "Kyuhyun-ah, why are you crying?".
Eeteuk continues, asking "Are they airing a sad movie on OCN?" Kyuhyun replies "Hy~ung~ This is so sad~"
The third panel shows a tv ad for a bed that costs 199,990 won (a little bit less than 200 dollars for a bed, which is fairly cheap). 'The ad says to call now for this great deal!'
And then lastly, Eeteuk is speaking to a hyung, prolly a manager hyung, saying "Hyung, we really need to get another bed for the dorm otherwise our magnae is going to run away from our dorm...."
See how everything went too far? The bed situation really created a buzz amongst the SuJu fans that January. They were talking about it for ages. And most of them wanted to give him a bed for his birthday (February 3rd). LOL.
Moreso as on January 18th 2007 he shamelessly (hehehe) debuted his Bed Song on TV during the MNet Wide News coverage of their Nii Photoshoot. For those who hasn't watched it click here:
070118 M.net Wide News - Kyuhyun Bed Song Cut
credit to carolynx@YT
With all this Bedless Kyu Hyun craziness, lots of fans wanted to get him a bed, especially because his birthday was coming up. But then again, he wasn't bedless because they didn't have the money to buy a bed (duh hehe) but because the Super Junior dorm had no space to accomodate another bed. There were 9 members + 2 managers living together in the 4-bedroom dorm (info credit to damifino @ soompi).
After this I don't remember reading any updates on Kyu's bedlessness until after his birthday, when it was confirmed that he finally has a bed. He got it on the same month, January. Maybe because of all the buzz, the managers decided to buy him a bed already. It was put between Teukie's and Ryeowook's beds because there probably no space at Donghae and Sungmin's room but judging from the photo below, you'll see how they barely made the new bed fit in Teukie's and Wookie's room. hahaha.
I don't know the exact date when he posted this pic at the Sukira website for his fans to see his new bed. Look at that dork, he's sprawled all over the place. hahaha. After months and months of being bedless and complaining about backaches (LOL), he finally got his wish.
Epilogue: A few months after, the lease of their old dorm has ended and the boys moved into a new dorm (with fingerprint recognition locks no less) and until now, he's rooming in with Sungmin again with his good old controversial bed. He's Bedless Kyu no more.
Surprisingly he opened his Cyworld's Diary Section with this entry:
Quote
Kyuhyun's Diary Section
2009.03.26 at 21:09 Weather: snow Mood: bored
Wherever you go, smiling superbly you're Fried Chicken*
A good girl being a matchless beauty is thought of a Fried Chicken
Hard to get, unstoppable, you're truly Fried Chicken
I am irrevocably lost for Fried Chicken
If you're envious of me, then they're Fried Chickens
After all MuBank's lunch is Fried Chicken
..... in between breaks hihi
* 닭강정 is Fried Chicken with Sweet & Spicy Sauce [x]
Original Source. 조규현 Cyworld
Translated by La'MISS:fairy at sj-world.net
He must have been really bored that he thought of modifying the Sorry, Sorry lyrics and dedicated it to a Fried Chicken. Furthermore, it wasn't snowing that time or maybe because his boredom got into his head that he imagined it was snowing. Fans thought of many things upon reading his strange entry. He might have been craving for that fried chicken. He might have been fed too much of that fried chicken. He might have been overworked. Etc. Okay, it's mind-boggling so let it be. He's crazy and it's contagious.
Ha! Without a doubt, it was only the beginning of something crazier. He promoted his own version of the song during their 090329 SBS Inkigayo performance where they've won their 1st Mutizen Award. The video below presents how he let himself go crazy over his dalk-kang-jeong. Hilarious and got to wonder up to what level of mindset this boy has. Seriously, he has talent of making people go gaga over his hidden wits.
credit: kirraTwELF
Indeed, he was successful promoting his version that it became popular over the Internet so If you don't want to be left behind, get your own now by visiting THIS link.
Just when we thought it's over but what's this? His Leeteuk-hyung was claiming the copyright of the song? These two dorks battled through their Cyworld sidebars as shown below.
VERSUS
Ring the bell! So who do you think have won?
Kyuhyun: "Fried Chicken is mine!" credit as marked
Yay! He was saved by the bell! Our spoiled-brat magnae won this battle because his hyung gave up on him and merely returning the pride. Declaring his victory, in his Cyworld's sidebar is this:
DorKyu already stamped his patent over the song.
To continue with his promotion of the song, other SuJu members helped him by singing it during their 090405 SBS Inkigayo performance where they've won their 2nd Mutizen Award. Watch it HERE and listen carefully on the very last part. Well, the saying "Birds of a feather flock together" makes a lot of sense now but they're all Chickens after all.
Now, let's enjoy DorKyu's Finger Lickin' Good present for us. Yum! Yum!
You guessed it. From specs to sunnies to avi to ajjumas's shades, with that nose curved down like an eagle's beak, you'll never go wrong. Sure he knows how to hide his face while looking hot or simply being a KyuNerd while looking sleek at the same time..
.... and we're done! A few things are still in progress, hope you bear with us and make sure to check out things again after a few hours. We're going fix and update stuff here and there.
The I'm so happy and proud of the conKyubines for reaching Thread 5! Kyu should be very happy about it, he has more than 8000 posts and 4 closed threads about him already O.O He's getting much love! Let's continue Kyu-lovin here!
To start off, thanks to Aeddum from sj-market, I already have gifs of my favorite moments from the Sohu Interview
First, saying his SuperGirls are his fans and then looking like he couldn't believe he said something greasy like that hahaha. Dork.
Then, do you know how happy I was that his laugh after being dissed by the kid is captured on gif? He looks amazing all like this: XD
and lastly, Kyu being too cool to dance like the kids. haha! He looks bored and embarassed. LOL. Maybe his ego was scarred so he won't cooperate. haha.
Ahh

yeah!! finally we reached thread 5 after racing like crazy. lol
congratulations, conkyubines. now, let's spazz and race!
i just wonder did you girls notice kyu put in the pink (candy pick!!) blush on from the Gee performance onward.
here are some pics
cr: as tagged
including the one summer posted last thread too.
this one
lol, it was so obvious and i was like wth!!?? when i saw these pics. but he looks really like a little kids in that kangaroo head with the water gun and pink cheeks. lol
be back later with more pics i have some now but they don't deserve to be put into thumbnails so i'll wait ;P
Posting KyuTeuk pics from Super Show 2 in HK... I don't know about you but I loled at these.
som sis I'm really curious why Kyu has candy pink cheeks hahaha. I want to thank the make up artist haha. And lol his kangaroo is less pointed and scary now, before it looked like a fox. haha.
Hello ConKyubines. I like the name it’s cute.
Congrats on Part 5.
I hope I'm not interrupting the race! haha.
I’m Mary and I just got into Super Junior earlier this year actually when I watched Come to Play. haha. I always knew about them though from when they first debut but didn’t really get into them until now. I know a lot of people have said this but I was surprised when I found out that Kyuhyun was the youngest. haha. He is so cute though! I’m learning more about Kyu by reading everything in the Topic Start and watching videos. There is just so much info on him! Anyway, Kyu is my 3rd favorite member he is tied with Sungmin actually. I can admit though that Kyuhyun is AMAZING and a GENIUS and has the BEST voice out of all the members. I know talent when I see it and this boy has a whole lot of it. I just amazed at all he knows. Kyu should have a solo album singing in English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Spanish and whatever other language. I'm sure that he could do it since he is good with foreign languages.
I have watched the mini drama with KyuMin. That was the first thing I watched with KyuMin. haha. They were so cute!! I kind of had a feeling that Kyuhyun wasn’t a good guy though no matter how nice he was to Sungmin in the drama. The NG is hilarious when they were in the car trying to do the hug scene. I watched it so many times but never knowing what they are saying. They are just way too cute.
Ok, so I’m watching all of Kyuhyun’s Unforgettable Performances because I haven’t seen any and the ones that I have seen so far are really great. I love when he sang Dahl Paeng Ee (Snail) so amazing. He has such a beautiful voice. WOW! When I was listening to him sing I Believe - My Sassy Girl I was like I know this song! haha. Actually this is my first time listening to it in Korean I first heard the Filipino version! I never knew that Kyuhyun and Jonghyun sang Goose’s Dream together. KyuMin’s duet was so nice I loved it a lot!! I listened to it twice. Oh wow, when I listened to him sing 7 Years of Love I felt like he was telling a story and not just singing. I can talk about his singing all day. Who wouldn’t? He just has such an amazing voice. His voice was the second I recognized in the group!
When I read that Kyu didn’t have a bed for so long I was like WHAT how can they not give him a bed? It is kind of like Seung Hyun (the member who replaced Wonbin in FT Island) he doesn’t have a bed he sleeps on the floor. Well, it is good that Kyu has a bed now!!
Does Kyu really like fried chicken that much? I loved that he changed the Sorry Sorry lyrics with a fried chicken. haha. After reading all about Kyu I can definitely tell that he is the Magnae with his actions. It's cute though.
LMAO! The pictures with Kyu in that wig. He looks so pretty! He looks so adorable with the kangaroo on his head. haha.
I guess I should end it here before I write a novel.xD
I should share a picture too since everyone else is posting pictures!

Hello ConKyubines! Are my sisters doing good?
I can't even find the words to say how much I missed you all.
I missed the thread. I missed Kyuhoney.
CONGRATULATIONS! The thread reached its fifth part. I'm so proud of everyone! It's a pity that I'm not active during the fourth one. But I promise to be here until the next chapter!
The thread got better! I love the new layout and format! Specially the quotes, I love it! Well done unni!
KyuYoung is so beautiful! I'm inlove with her! He can be a twin of Cho Ahra. Really.
Kyu is getting fatter! I'm happy for him. He looks more gorgeous. And I noticed that when he gained weight, you can see a cute dimple point on his right lower lip! Yay!
I think his makeup artist had put a thick blush on him. But he's really cute with it! He resembles the kid in the picture of Alaska milk here in the Philippines.
Ate Iya : Hi unni! I missed you!
I love the expression when he said his kind of super girl! Maybe he realized that he's being too greasy. And I noticed the part when he bit the rose, he really looks like a fox.
How's your trip?
Som : Som unni!!
Thanks for the pics! Kyu looks funny when Hae pulls his leg! How are you?
Ate Carol : Hey hey hey!
When you posted the pic of Kyu with boots, it's my first time to see him wearing that. Hahaha. He looks cute. And his outfit suits our weather here. Hehehe. Belated Chuchuchuchu!
Hello conkyubineS! How is everyone doing with all the goodies coming in. So many Kyudies... O.O
Hi Mary thanks for stopping by and getting to know kyu did you finish everything? hehe. Please feel free to spazz here too, even if they are novels. hehe. Just curious, who are your number 1 and 2?
Spoiler
What a coincidence, I find alot of similarities between Seunghyun and Kyuhyun O.O don't you think so? They're both fearless to their hyungs and the last one to be added to the group. Now Seunghyun doesnt have a bed? wow. haha
I come bearing Secret pics from the Asia Song Festival last Saturday. I was right, the Secret team was there.
KYUTIE SMILE.
Kyutie patootie.. Sorry if it's mushy but kyu is just so squishable even with all that poofy messy hair. What happened to the JunpyoxJihoo hybrid hairstyle? LOL
Kyu, what are you fixing on your back?
Race on?
edit: len how are you, glad you can spazz again here! Yup he's growing chubbier and I love it too. You're right about the dimple. I hope he stays healthy. What Alaska kid? LOL And its weird how we use SHE for KyuYoung hahaha.
Spoiler
Our trip was great, you saw the pics right? How is school? We have to talk in spoilers haha

Som, we should be the dawn shifters. XD We are always awake spazzing about this boy even at like 3+, 4 am!!
I died at this pic. The fan is so lucky!! HE LOOKED INTO THEIR CAMERA AND SMILED!!! *spazz and die* Reminds me of that time eunhyuk looked into my U fancam at SMtown but i didnt even realise until i got home cos my eyes were on kyu although my cam was on eunhyuk. EPIC FAILS.
i've been following thread 4 until now, and omg this thread has everything about kyu and i LOVE IT
okay, so let me introduce myself, i'm khansa and i'm still in junior high-_- i'm indonesian!
my friend first told me about this boyband that consists of 13 boys and i was like WTH? but then, when she showed me the sorry sorry mv, i was like: WOOOOOOOOW and then i saw kyu, and then.... yeah! so here i am now!
i'm not going to post much cuz i have tons of homeworks to do before i go to school next week and i spent a lot of time opening this thread and that made my mom's face go because i keep forgetting to do my homeworks once i see kyu's photos.
