Super Junior M promotes in Taiwan with 7 members, SM insists it did not breach contract



Super Junior's subgroup Super Junior M arrived in Taiwan on February 24th to promote their new Chinese album and held a news conference.
However, there was one member missing as Zhoumi had an issue with his visa. 

The day prior, there was an incident where Taiwanese concert organizers wanted to file a lawsuit. Super Junior M's Taiwanese agency Fulong Agency expressed that the Korean agency did not directly sign the contract. At the time, all Taiwanese activities were done according to the terms in the contract.

Super Junior M's schedule was packed. Although they were missing one member, they still participated in the press conference. Because it was the year of the rabbit, the record company arranged to have the Japanese LOVE Bunny to appear on stage. However, it looked too nervous and fell down. Super Junior M members immediately helped it up, making it the luckiest "rabbit fan." Siwon, who was born in the year of the rabbit, looked especially happy. He also revealed that Sungmin's nickname is "rabbit." The group held auspicious couplets and took pictures with the LOVE Bunny. As usual, they also displayed their Chinese abilities and expressed that they will continue to work hard. 

In addition, in regards to the lawsuit raised by the concert organizers against Super Junior, SM made a statement through their Taiwanese agency, Fulong. They emphasized that initially SM had given authority to a Korean company, "KO Entertainment," and did not sign a contract with HS Media. SM previously mentioned that there is a possibility that one member will not be able to participate and perform. Moreover, the contract signed last month between the Korean parties and organizers did not include a clause stating "no performance in Taiwan for 6 months." The contract for Super Junior's 3rd concert tour was already signed with Taiwanese organizer Super Dome mid-last year. SM Entertainment once again stated that there was no breach of contract or any other related violations. 

After completing their short half day promotion, Super Junior M left Taiwan on the morning of the 25th at 9:30AM on flight BR217. In two weeks time, Super Junior will hold their 3rd concert tour at the Taipei Arena for 3 days.
