[News] Donghae to cancel trip to Taiwan due to injury

type="html">
Popular Korean idol group Super Junior's Donghae, who was initially scheduled to come to Taiwan on the 24th in order to promote the "Super Show 3 - Super Junior 3D Concert Movie" that would be screened, has unexpectedly cancelled his plans. The record company expressed that because Donghae had sustained an injury while filming a program in Korea, he was advised by the doctors to take a break after much deliberation, and was forced to cancel his trip to Taiwan.

Donghae was initially supposed to make a quick 7-hour visit to Taiwan, and participate in the press conference for the movie's premiere as arranged by his record company, but because Donghae's injuries weren't able to be healed in a short period of time, his Korean management company held an emergency discussion with the Taiwanese record company, and had decided to cancel his promotional activities in Taipei this time. AVEX Taiwan reiterated that although the press conference was cancelled, but the premiere of the movie would go on as planned.

TVXQ’s Choikang Changmin has proved that he’s a devotee of Super Junior’s Kim Hee Chul.

On the 12th, Super Junior’s Kim Hee Chul introduced Choikang Changmin as a ‘fervent Kim Hee Chul devotee’ on his personal Twitter account.

Kim Hee Chul said, “Shim Changmin has bright and untainted eyes that a devotee of this being should have. If you shorten what you call a true Kim Hee Chul devotee into four syllables, it’s Shindorim Yeok(Station).”

In the photo that was posted with the tweet, Choikang Changmin is seen staring into the camera with wide eyes as he holds a CD titled ‘Baby Hee game’. As the cover of the gaming CD that Choikang Changmin is holding features the steamed bun character that Kim Hee Chul likes to use, it can be predicted that either he or his fans made it.
