This is an online backup for a few Super Junior scans and translations I have made. As Korean pop culture is slowly arriving in Finland, Super Junior is one of the groups that are gaining some attention, becoming more popular. The number of Finnish people who have heard about SJ and maybe listened to their songs is probably some hundreds*, maybe even more (FYI, population of Finland is 5,3 million). How many of them call themselves fans or ELF is another thing, haha.
My job will probably remain easy; even though Super Junior is gaining popularity here, it has yet to appear on Finnish mass media more widely. As of now, I believe not many magazines are up to writing about hallyu, with a couple of exceptions.
Also, I am not fluent in English, with mere 10+5 years of studying the language. My translations might include awkward wordings, but will you bear with me? ♥
If taking out my scans and translations, I only ask you to credit them properly. I am not the original author of the articles that appear here, I do not own them, they are copyrighted by their respective creators. This site is merely a personal fansite, no profit intended.
Scroll down to find the scans and translations! ^^
