[NEWS] Additional Shows of Super Show 4?


"To do it or not to do it."  Group Super Junior is facing a happy dilemma. 

Super Junior successfully completed their Seoul encore concert on May 26 and 27 at The Olympic Gymnastics Arena in Seoul. 

The group showed off the height of their popularity with 24 shows in 10 cities starting in Seoul on last November and making stops in Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Macau, Thailand, France, China, and Indonesia which gathered a total of 400,000 audiences.  At the encore concert in Seoul, Super Junior showed passionate stages with various performances and stage effects, making the grand finale of Super Show 4.

However, a several countries including China and Malaysia are requesting additional stops of Super Show 4, putting them in a dilemma over whether to have additional shows.  Fans and concert promoters in China have been continuously inquiring into getting additional shows because the group only performed in Shanghai due to their schedule. 

However, Super Junior cannot easily come to a decision.  It is because they have to record and promote their sixth album which is due out in July or August.  Because this album is the first album since the release of their fifth album Mr. Simple in August of 2011 which was was over an year ago, the members are putting extra efforts into making this album.  They are at a point where they need to relieve their tired mind and body from 6 months of touring overseas, but they are even more busy with their recording schedule which was pushed aside previously. 

Also, for Super Junior who have solidified their place as a K-Pop star by making their songs "Sorry Sorry," "Bonamana," and "Mr. Simple" hits, the sixth album and active promotion in Korea are very important in continuing their success. 

However, they cannot ignore the request of their Asian fans who are dying for Super Show 4.  It will be interesting to see what decision Super Junior will come to on their happy dilemma.
