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.

만약에 나 안 일어나도 나를 깨우진 말아줘요
봄바람처럼 어루만져 널
너의 모든 것이 아름다워 (아름다워)
이대로 너를 끌어안고서 oh baby
속삭여 사랑한다고
Don't wake me up 지금 이대로 좋아
Don't wake me up 너의 느낌이 좋아
그저 네 품속에서 편히 잠든 채로
Hey, don't wake me up
Don't wake me up, don't wake me up
잠시 그려봐 쉼표
긴장을 풀어 기지개를 펴
내 팔 베개는 너의 쉼터
너의 몸을 녹일 모닥불을 피워
너 없이는 난 내용물이 텅 빈 tin can
그저 분리수거 되는 민폐
그러니 눈을 떴을 때 있어줘 내 옆에
해지는 저녁 그 조명 아래 너
너의 모습에 내 눈이 부셔 (눈이 부셔)
이대로 너를 바라보면서
Baby 살며시 너와 입 맞추고
Don't wake me up 지금 이대로 좋아
이 시간 속에 너와 나뿐이잖아
Don't wake me up 너의 느낌이 좋아
그저 네 품속에서 편히 잠든 채로
Hey, don't wake me up oh oh
Don't wake me up 이대로 있고싶어
Don't wake me up, don't wake me up
Don't wake me up
너의 걱정거리 잠시 밀어둬 it's alright (it's alright)
It's alright yeah
여긴 너의 쉼터 그대로 있어줘 it's alright (it's alright)
It's alright
Don't wake me up 지금 이대로 좋아
이 시간 속에 너와 나뿐이잖아
Don't wake me up 너의 느낌이 좋아
그저 네 품속에서 편히 잠든 채로
Hey, don't wake me up oh oh
Don't wake me up
Don't wake me up 이대로 있고싶어 (ah ah)
Don't wake me up, don't wake me up
Don't wake me up
The lyrics to SUPER JUNIOR's song "Don't Wake Me Up" express the desire to stay in a blissful state, not wanting to be disrupted by reality. The opening lines talk about how even though morning might come, and the sun might envelop them, the singer asks not to be awakened. They compare their love to the gentle spring breeze, stating that everything about the person they love is beautiful. They want to hold onto them tightly and whisper "I love you" to them. The chorus repeats the message of not wanting to be awakened, emphasizing that they are content in the present moment where it's just the two of them. They want to remain in their lover's embrace and peacefully fall asleep.
The second verse describes a moment of relaxation, asking the listener to imagine a comma, a break from tension, stretching and resting. The singer refers to their arms as a pillow, a sanctuary for their loved one. They create a metaphor, saying that the fire of their body will melt the person they love. Without them, they feel empty, like a tin can with no contents, and asks their love not to leave their side when they open their eyes. The lyrics continue to highlight the overwhelming beauty of the person they love, comparing them to the dazzling evening light. They want to keep looking at them and softly kiss them.
Overall, "Don't Wake Me Up" portrays the desire to preserve a perfect moment with someone they love, where time stands still and they can enjoy their presence without any disturbances.
