Kyuhyun is not only the maknae (youngest) of Super Junior. He’s also the last one to join the group. Yet, that didn’t stop him from becoming the sunbae (senior) of the group as a professional singer because he debuted earlier.
In an episode of “Mom’s Diary,” the members fought over their seniority and shared stories about their television appearances before their official debut as Super Junior members. As everyone bragged about their debut stories, Kyuhyun, in his signature nonchalant sarcasm, said,“I’m sorry, but I debuted when I was seven.”The next scene showed receipts of his statement. He even released an album at that young age!
