Teuk's star1 magazine's interview:

Teuk: I feel that for the past 7 years, I've received a lot of love from everyone. Now that I am going to the army, honestly speaking, I feel burdened and my mind now is in a mess. However, I've already arranged my thoughts and think that I can come back with a better image.

I am a person that always thinks about the end whenever the albums comes out. Because only then I start to feel that I need to work harder. Just like this, we are already at the 6th album. The number "6" means a lot to our group because there are sayings that it is hard for idol groups to last over 5 years. It seems that now that we have a different sort of record, the future is more worth to anticipate for.

Q: Super Junior is already one of the top groups. If there is a goal that you want to achieve through the 6th album, what would it be?

Teuk: When we were still newcomers, I had dreams like wanting to "get number 1", "get the newcomer award" and "get the bonsang". Now, I'm not so eager about getting awards anymore. As compared to those, I want the group to become a long lasting group or a group with the best team work. The music industry's history award, are we the earliest group with the most members to get number 1. As compared to getting awards, I started to have desires about getting things that have more values.

Q: Will Leeteuk go the army taking the 6th album as the last?

Teuk: Because I am constantly working now so going to the army gives me burden. I feel that I've been receiving a lot of love from everyone for the past 7 years. And also, going to the army at a time when there are so much schedules while receiving so much love, would I be able to receive it again when I come back? It is true that my mind felt lost now but I've already arranged my thoughts well. I might as well go and come back quickly while preparing to show everyone a new image. With this thinking, I feel at ease now.

Q: Taking a lot of pictures whenever you go, you seem to put in some effort into fashion. What are the types of fashion that you usually seek?

Teuk: I used to put in a lot of effort into fashion but after debuting, I started to dislike spending money so I literally don't have any shopping experiences anymore. After looking at the clothes that fans or designers had given me, even if I went shopping, I'm not very sure about what I should buy anymore. About this, I thought that "this can't do" so lately, I went to ask the members what is popular lately and occasionally, I would also look through magazines to research. Not very long ago, I wore this shirt with a lot of holes given by the fans to the company to practice and a lot of people told me it was a very good brand. I wore it like it's pyjamas and after washing it, I would wear it out again immediately......I really regret wearing it as a pyjamas at that period of time. (laughs)

Q: Its usually all men so do you guys usually go and do suitable sports together?

Teuk: I like doing sports, or even watching sports. Because lately, in Star King, there is a "awesome body project" so I've been working out. When there is time, I would go and play basketball with the members. I like the feeling of perspiring while running. I also like the feeling of using a strength training machine to focus and train the muscles. Because everyone thinks that I look very frail so I am working very hard to change that thinking. Women tends to like a reversed body so they usually get attracted to reversions such as people whose face is white but body is black.

Q: You're looking more and more handsome. Do you manage your appearance?
Teuk: Its usually when I do makeup...it is true that my skin becomes bad. However, as compared to other friends, it seems like my skin is already considered good. Because I don't have much time to manage(my face), I usually just do the most basic and that is making sure that I wash my face clean.

Q: Lastly, your future plans?
Teuk: For the 6th album's activities, I will try my best to do them as usual. I also want to become a national idol that is able to receive love from any sort of age group, from the people who are in their 10s to the people who are in their 60s. If you want to talk about even further plans, I hope that Super Junior can be together forever. So occasionally, I will tell the members that when the contract ends and that you want to do some sort of business like opening a meat shop, go and open it. And when its time to do a world tour, we have to come together again and do it under the name of Super Junior. I also said before that despite having any dissastisfactions, we also have to be together and continue the contract. Because only by this way, the group Super Junior can connect together. These are my expectations and hopes.
