K-pop idol Lee Teuk of boy band Super Junior has thanked his fans for their support on the 2,000th day since his debut as a singer by thanking his fans.

Through a message posted on his Twitter account early today, Lee Teuk wrote, "2,000 days since our debut..it's only been 2,000 days..^^ There is just so much that I want to do but I feel that I still lack in many ways. To all our E.L.Fs (name of Super Junior's fans) around the world that have shown their love!! I love you and thank you all so much!"

He then continued the message saying, "Our upcoming Japanese single has placed at No. 1 on pre-order charts!!!^^ Our official debut is really important..^^ I am proud to be a Korean and when I'm in other countries, I will work hard to show that our nation's people are nice.. I will be humble and work hard...^^"

Meanwhile, Super Junior is set to release the Japanese version of their hit song "BONAMANA" which will go on sale on June 8 and become available as a ringtone on May 18. The song has also been chosen as the commercial song for Japan's convenience store franchise Circle K Sunkus which Super Junior currently endorses.

Super Junior, often referred among fans as "SuJu" in short, made their debut in late 2005 as one of the most popular boy bands in the world, releasing a slew of hit songs such as "Don't Don," "Sorry Sorry" and "BONAMANA" which have topped a number of music charts in Korea and in the Asian region.

They have also toured a number of countries for their "SUPER SHOW" and set to take the stage at Le Zenith de Paris on June 10 with SM Entertainment labelmates for "SMTOWN LIVE WORLD TOUR in PARIS."
