Initially debuting with 12 members on November 6, 2005 with "TWINS (Knock Out)", they were simply a project group named Super Junior 05. With Kyuhyun's addition on May 23, 2006 for the release of "U", the "05" was dropped and SJ became an official group.
SORRY, SORRY was their first album to debut at #1 on Hanteo. Released on March 12, 2009, it had over 150,000 copies pre-ordered and it sold over 29,000 copies on the first day, defeating Seo Taiji's record of 25,000. Promotions for the album started March 13 with the performance of "SORRY, SORRY" and "Why I Like You" on Music Bank. From March to May, the song collected a total of 10 #1 mutizens with consecutive wins. On May 12, a new version of the album was released with "너라고 (It's You)" as single. The music video was released two days before its schedule because it was leaked onto the internet.
On December 21, 2009, Hangeng filed for contract termination with SM Entertainment. The following day, his lawyer stated the claimed reasons behind the action: provisions were in SM's favor, unlawful 13-year contract length, unfair sum of money to end the contract, not allowed to request to revise his contract, forced to do things that were not in his contract, forced to do things against his will, fined if he disobeyed the company, missed any events or even was late and there was uneven profit distribution. Along with this, it was disclosed that SM's refused to give him a day off in over two years. His manager then submitted a statement to the court citing SM's violation of Hangeng's rights. The statement contended that he was forced to wear a mask due to company's ill handling of the visa issue; company purposely discriminated against Hangeng and his family; company refused to cooperate or listen to any of his suggestions; company purposely turned down individual activities for him. On December 21, 2010, the Seoul Central District Court ruled in favor of Hangeng. The court stated, "all three contracts – from the January 2003 contract, the altered contract from February 2007, and the affiliated contract from December 2007 – do not exist".
They have five sub-units with different concentrations:
Super Junior K.R.Y. consists of the main vocalists Kyuhyun, Ryeowook and Yesung.
Super Junior T consists of Heechul, Kangin, Shindong, Eunhyuk, Leeteuk and Sungmin; focuses on singing trot.
Super Junior M is made up of Hangeng, Siwon, Donghae, Henry, Zhoumi, Kyuhyun and Ryeowook; focuses on singing in Mandarin.
Super Junior H consists of every member of T except for Heechul, who is replaced by Yesung.
Super Junior D&E consists of Donghae and Eunhyuk.

그토록 사랑한 그 대가에
넌 돌리려 해도
울며 매달려도 그냥 싫다며
헤어짐을 말한 나야
난 항상 강한 척만 하지만
평생 너 하나 지킬 자신 없어
떠난 비겁한 남자야
사랑하지 말고
다신 그리워 할 사람
만들지 말고
너만 바라보고 너 아님 안되서
하루도 못 버틸 만큼
사랑해 주는 사람 만나 제발
넌 아파 날 잡으려 하지만
평생 내 곁엔 행복해질
자신 없는 비겁한 여자야
다신 나 같은 사람
사랑하지 말고
다신 그리워 할 사람
만들지 말고
너만 바라보고 너 아님 안되서
하루도 못 버틸 만큼
사랑해 주는 사람 만나
언젠가 우리 헤어짐을 후회한대도
이별 밖에는 난 해줄 게 없어
지난 시간을 세며
아파 울지 말고
지난 바보 같은 사랑 그리워 말고
너만 바라보고 너 아님 안되서
하루도 못 버틸 만큼
사랑해 주는 사람 만나
제발 행복하기를
두 번 다시는 마주치지 말자

이 순간이 마지막이라고
This moment is said to be the last
그토록 사랑한 그 대가에 넌 돌리려 해도
Even if you try to turn back on the one you loved so much
울며 매달려도 그냥 싫다며
Saying 'I just don't like it' even though you cry and cling on
헤어짐을 말한 나야
It's me who said goodbye
난 항상 강한 척만 하지만
I always act tough
평생 너 하나 지킬 자신 없어
I don't have the confidence to keep only you for a lifetime
떠난 비겁한 남자야
I am a coward who left
다신 나 같은 사람 사랑하지 말고
Don't love someone like me again
다신 그리워 할 사람 만들지 말고
Don't create someone to miss
너만 바라보고 너 아님 안되서
I can't bear to see anyone but you
하루도 못 버틸 만큼 사랑해 주는 사람 만나 제발
Please meet someone who loves you so much that you can't bear it for even a day
넌 아파 날 잡으려 하지만
You try to hold on to me, even though it hurts
평생 내 곁엔 행복해질 자신 없는 비겁한 여자야
I am a cowardly woman who doesn't have the confidence to make you happy for a lifetime by my side
언젠가 우리 헤어짐을 후회한대도
Even if we regret parting someday
이별 밖에는 난 해줄 게 없어
There's nothing I can do except parting
지난 시간을 세며 아파 울지 말고
Don't cry in pain while counting the past time
지난 바보 같은 사랑 그리워 말고
Don't miss the foolish love of the past
너만 바라보고 너 아님 안되서
I can't bear to see anyone but you
하루도 못 버틸 만큼 사랑해 주는 사람 만나
Please meet someone who loves you so much that you can't bear it for even a day
제발 행복하기를
Please be happy
두 번 다시는 마주치지 말자
Let's not meet again
