Eric Nam: Super Junior's Vocal Maknae Book 1: Beginnings

~U

July 2006

Once again, the media were thrilled at the news of Super Junior's return. This time they dropped the year label to be simply renamed "Super Junior" and only one member would be added. This immediately got speculation. Some netizens thought it would be another foreigner since Hangeng and Eric were considered so. Others thought it was another trainee they were familiar with before.

The now numbered fourteen boys walked towards the recording set.

"It's nice to see you oppas I look forward to working with you." A young girl named Yoona greeted them. At only sixteen years she displayed a level of innocence the trainees know her for.

Eric knew as her that cute, but dorky trainee who would follow them during breaks. All the boys fell to her innocent charms including Eric. It took a while for him to get used to talking to her now.

"If it ain't the wonder girl. I remember when you were a little kid. Hard to believe ya grown up." Eunhyuk patted her head.

"How are the girls doing?" Sungmin asked.

"Taeyeon unnie is always stealing the snow. Sooyoung and Yuri unnie are always causing a scene and Tiffany is with Jessica." Yoona summarized. That was something about that cute expression that made them squeal.

"You're so cute Yoona-ah, you remind me so much of Eric. You both have the same youthful appearance." Heechul pinched Yoona's cheeks.

"We missed you over there Eric. Sooyoung-ah wouldn't stop talking about you. Did you hear that Jessica's little sister auditioned."

"Jessica has a little sister!?" Eric gasped in English.

"Did you not know that?" Kibum raised an eyebrow.

"I guess I didn't know. Jessica never told me about her family. We should meet her one day." Eric chuckled sheepishly.

"It's time to begin filming boys. Are you all prepared?" Sooman instructed.

"Of course ajusshi, we been waiting for this very moment!" Leeteuk said excitedly.

"I'll be the one to shine on stage." Heechul boasted.

"Please don't take too long with it hyung we to have our parts to do." Kibum yawned.

"So, what do you want me to do Sooman-nim?" Asked Yoona.

"Simple really, you will play the main subject for the boy's affection. All you have to do is look pretty and innocent."

"Sure, I can do that." Yoona said a wink, show casing her natural aegyo.

The boys were now prepared to film. Eric Nam grew his out reaching to his shoulders, similar to the other members. He wore loose baggy jeans that the 2000s were known for, light red t shirt, and a cool black jacket that was open. Heechul as usual showed off his ponytail much to the boys' annoyance. Donghae and Eunhyuk did most of the dancing and Eric Nam, Wookie, and Sungmin handled most of the singing. While the boys were busy dancing, Yoona acted as the love interest and she showed off her natural aegyo.
