It’s no longer about highlighting the individual, but expressing Super Junior as a group

There has been a constant change for Super Junior (and their fans) over the past few years, with the members entering army one after another and bidding temporary farewells. Kangin left and returned, while leader Leeteuk and Heechul are currently serving the nation.
However, Super Junior hasn't stopped moving. In fact, change seems to have resulted in a tighter bond within the group and with fans.
At the press conference for their concert Super Show 5 on Sunday, Shindong expressed how their new concert tour is a culmination of their dreams - what each member has been dreaming of doing for the past five years.
Every member was involved in conceptualising the show, from song selection to stage design to costumes.
Adding that Super Junior is accomplishing their dream through the concert, Kyuhyun mentioned how the new show is a combination of the past four tours - which fans loved - plus a little something more.
With humble beginnings as an Asian tour in 2008, highly popular South Korean boyband Super Junior's 'Super Show' tour returns this year with its fifth instalment, which kicked off at Seoul's Olympic Gymnastics Arena over the weekend (March 23 and 24).

Having
missed out on Super Show 3 and 4, Kangin, who had a lot of catching up
to do, was undoubtedly under a great deal of stress and admitted to
feeling 'a little nervous'. Thankfully, he was not alone. He thanked the
other members for helping him fit right back into the group, and
praised them for being professionals now.
'The past tours were about showing how each member is different, but now it's about us as a team,' Kangin added.
Funnyman of the group, Shindong, also thanked the others for helping him, as being expected to provide humour does give him stress.

With
K-Pop music conquering fans around the world, Super Junior's management
company SM Entertainment has plans to bring Super Show 5 to even more
countries - their goal: 100 stops.
So far, concert dates have been confirmed for Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Peru. Super Junior is also set to perform in Tokyo Dome in July.
Concert tours are no doubt tiring, but Super Junior expressed that they have been working out more than before, and are happy to be visiting new places.
So we posed Super Junior the question that's on every Singapore ELF's mind - will there be a Super Show 5 in Singapore?
Shindong revealed that while there are no firm plans to bring the show to Singapore, they are looking at adding stops in Asia.
