Super Junior’s Kyuhyun reveals his thoughts on leaving ‘Mama Mia’

On October 27th broadcast of KBS 2TV variety show ‘Mamma Mia’, Super Junior’s Kyuhyun wrapped up his 5-month hosting duty and revealed his thoughts on leaving the show.

At the end of the show, Kyuhyun shared, “I recorded ‘Mamma Mia’ for nearly 20 times and I learned a lot from Park Mi Sun noona, and Lee Young Ja noona. My love for family has grown deeper and I got to call my mom more often. It was a nice experience.”

Kyuhyun had to leave ‘Mamma Mia’ after a fall reshuffling by KBS as the show was shifted to Wednesday night, which is the same timeslot as ‘Radio Star’ where he’s currently appearing.

Lee Young Ja also teased Kyuhyun saying that he should ditch ‘Radio Star’ for ‘Mamma Mia’ instead, but Kyuhyun said, “I was there for two years, so I can’t because of loyalty.”

Super Junior-M's Henry's movie 'Final Recipe' invited to the Sao Paolo International Film Festival

Super Junior-M's Henry's movie has been invited to the 37th Sao Paolo International Film Festival!

It's not the first time it's been invited overseas. It was at the San Sebastian International Film Festival in September and at the Hawaii International Film Festival earlier this month. At the Sao Paolo International Film Festival, it will be airing at the panorama section

The Sao Paolo International Film Festival is the biggest film festival in Brazil. Because 'Final Recipe' was so praised at the San Sebastian International Film Festival, the SPIFF sent a love call to the movie right away.

Mauricio Kinoshita, the programmer of the SPIFF, said, "'Final Recipe' handles the concept of family and cooking, which is a concept loved all over the country. We invited it to the representative panorama section of the film festival instead of the Korean movie special section because it handled the concepts in harmony. It'll come to attention once again during the festival."

It was also revealed that Henry himself composed and sang the ending OST, and Tiffany featured in the song. The movie will be released in 2014 in Korea!
