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.

걸리버 걸리버 거거
걸리버 걸리버 거거
걸리버 걸리버 거거
고갤 뒤로 젖혀
위를 봐 난 super giant 걸리버
걸리적거리는 건 다 밀어
아무리 뛰어봐도
무릎팍에 오는 정도
기를 쓰고 달려봐도
어차피 한 걸음 정도
아니꼽다는 눈빛들
이 정도로는 성에 안 차
소문만 무성해 각자
떠들어 대 봤자
니가 본건 빙산의 일각
재깍 수그리고 들어와 바짝
난 빠글빠글 털북숭이래
아니 까끌까끌한 몽둥이래
꼬맹이들 까꿍 그건 다리털인데
에에에 S.J. S.U.P.E.R. (걸리버)

Baby, are you? Baby, baby?
넌 이미 진 것 같지? 어 그치? You agree?
자자 내가 여기 있잖아 니 머리 꼭대기
얘 얘 얘들 봐라 또
또 무리하네 호랑이 없는 우리안에선
주둥이 놀리는 여우가 왕이라더니
나 없이 겨우 이러고 놀았니
근데 있잖니 보시다시피 S.J.가 돌아왔잖니
천천히 퇴장해 주겠니 슈주간다

The song “걸리버” by Super Junior (S.J.) is an upbeat and energetic track that boasts the group's confidence and determination to be the new leaders in the K-pop industry. The title "걸리버" is derived from the character Gulliver from the novel Gulliver's Travels, who is known for his larger-than-life adventures. The lyrics are filled with metaphors and comparisons to emphasize how Super Junior is larger-than-life and ready to take on the world.
The opening chorus "걸리버 걸리버 거거" is a catchy refrain that sets the tone for the song. The next part of the song describes the group's confidence and use of their power to lead, "뭐든지 다 쟁취해서 / 세상을 바꿔버릴 거야 / I'm a super giant 걸리버 / 걸리적거리는 건 다 밀어 / 날 믿어 널 이끌어 줄 New leader." The chorus and verses focus on the idea of Super Junior being larger-than-life, unstoppable forces that the world can't ignore. They are leaders who are here to bring change and shake things up.
The song also includes a rap verse where the members compare their strength to that of an elephant and a gorilla. The bridge of the song is a call-and-response section with the members shouting "S.J. S.U.P.E.R," and "S.J. J.U.N.I.O.R," with a significant emphasis on the last line where they shout "Make way for the new king!"
