Super Show 5 is the second world concert tour and fifth international tour by South Korean boy band Super Junior, in support of their sixth studio album, Sexy, Free & Single. The world tour commenced with two shows in Seoul in March 2013 and will continue onto South America,[1][2] North America and Europe.

This tour marks the return of member Kangin, who was discharged from mandatory military service in April 2012, and the first one since Super Show 2 in 2009.[3] However it is the second tour without Heechul, since Super Show 3, who enlisted in September 2011 and the first without leader Leeteuk, since Super Show 4, who enlisted on 30 October 2012.

Concerts

The South American leg of the tour marks the group's first exclusive concerts on the continent and the largest by a Korean artist.[4][5]

On day two of the Seoul concerts, the nine members held a press conference at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena. Shindong said "the level of participation on our part was the highest in this concert. Our opinions were actively taken into account from choosing solo and group performances to picking stage costumes". Eunhyuk further explained "We participated in picking songs, organizing stages and choosing costumes", and that their agency took in their opinions. He added that they thought of fans who come to the show every year and decided to perform songs they have not done before.[6] Former SM Entertainment and S.E.S. member Bada made a surpirse appearance during Ryeowook's solo stage where he impersonated her.[3]

Yesung announced at the Seoul concert that he will enlist for his mandatory military service in 2013.[7][8] He enlisted on 6 May, and thus will not take part from the South American leg of the Tour onwards.[9][10] Super Junior's concert in Chile brought in 12,000 fans, and set a record as the largest audience for a Korean group in South America.[11] They wrapped up the South American leg of the concert by performing in front of 40,000 fans overall.[12]

As of 3 August 2013, the tour had attracted a total of 238,850 audiences. This was an amazing feat considering the tour was not even close to being finished.

Super Junior's Super Show 5 held in Mexico on 7 November, sold out tickets in about 5 hours. It set the record of the largest audience for a "Super Show" performed outside of Asia as well as obtaining the record for most attended concert in Latin America for a Korean group, with 15,994 fans attending.
