Super Junior begin recording fifth album

Sorry Sorry Sorry Sorry, Neka Neka Neka…

Asia’s biggest boy band that isn’t BIGBANG or TVXQ, Super Junior, confirmed today that they have officially begun recording their fifth studio album.

Member Leeteuk confirmed that recording had already begun on the Super Junior radio show, while Ryeowook Tweeted that the group have been practicing hard in preparation for its release.

The new album will follow-up the boys mega-smash BONAMANA, which was the highest-selling album in South Korea for 2010. The album also spawned a mega-hit in the title track, which has been sitting at #1 on the Taiwanese charts for the past YEAR and counting.

Speaking of the song’s success in Taiwan, member Heechul Tweeted: “BONAMANA has been at #1 in Taiwan for over a year. At the end, only our 5th album’s new song will be able to beat “BONAMANA.” Even though we are going crazy over the preparation of the 5th album, you guys will go crazy because of the album’s release, because we are a killer group.”

I’m sure they’ll be able to top “BONAMAMA” since it’s just a less-amazing version of “Sorry Sorry”, which has to be up there with SNSD’s “Gee” and Wonder Girls’ “Nobody” as one of the greatest K-Pop songs of all time.

The album should be amazing, though. Super Junior always have incredible songs, and besides a few dud ballads, the BONAMANA album was basically flawless. And if they come back this year, they won’t even have any other boy band competition — TVXQ have already wrapped up their comeback promotions, SM won’t put SHINee and SuJu directly against each other, BIGBANG will obviously be delayed indefinitely due to Daesung’s recent accident, and JYP’s 2PM aren’t successful enough yet to pose a threat.
