Super Junior | ELF Forever ♥

Super Junior‘s Leeteuk has barely over a week until his enlistment on the 30th.

In an interview, he brightly revealed, “Time really does fly. Just a few days ago, I told Donghae, ‘There’s only 13 days left’, and Donghae said, ‘Hyung, it’s 12 days.’ And now there’s about a week. I feel like I’ve experienced how time flies by so fast. I read that the world looks different according to how I think, so I’m trying to be optimistic.”

Even though member Kangin had gone and come back from the army and Heechul is currently enlisted, Leeteuk’s absence from the group has a different meaning because he has been the team’s center as its leader.

When asked who would be the leader in his place, he laughed and answered, “The members are so good that I’m just going to leave. If I give the spot to someone else and he does it so well, I’m going to have no place to stand when I come back. I’m going to tell them that I trust them and just go. I’m a bit worried, of course. The worst case scenario would be seeing the team weaken when I’m gone. I think.. I think that’d be hard. But I trust the members. I believe they’ll do well.”

Super Junior′s Leeteuk has decided to wait a bit longer for his other half to show up.

The Super Junior members got together for a photo shoot with High Cut

in a winter vacance concept.

In the interview with the magazine, Leeteuk said, “I plan to go through the broadcasting station and thank all the producers and screenwriters whohelped me. I received a plaque from the chief director of the station a while ago while I was wrapping up for Star King, and I felt so sorry. I started off in a corner of the show as a panel member four years ago, then became the supporting MC and finally the main MC. Now I know how fun it is to host a show, but I have to leave.”

He then added about his girlfriend issue, “I did try to find a girlfriend. I heard letters from your girlfriend really cheer you up in the training camp, but everyone in the end concluded, ′But you′re going to the army.′ I think I′ll have to try again after my release.”

Leeteuk will be joining the army to serve his duties on October 30.

Donghae said about the enlistment, “I think [Leeteuk] hyung′s (big brother) absence from the far left side of the stage will really hit us when we say hello or wrap up.”

Eunhyuk agreed, “I′ll really be feeling [Leeteuk] hyung′s empty spot. Since our leader will be gone, I hope our members start to think all of us are like leaders.”

Super Junior′s photo spread can be found in the 88th edition of High Cut issued on October 18.
