Super Junior is set to make a comeback soon and fans were overjoyed with the news. This is understandable as this is the first comeback of the group in two years. However, although they are excited fans and the netizens are complaining as it was announced that Sungmin is returning with the group as well.

The idea of Sungmin joining Super Junior's comeback pissed many people because he is already married. It can be recalled that he shocked the fans and friends with his sudden announcement of marriage to musical actress named Kim Sa Eun.

At that time, fans were very angry so he wrote a letter to apologize. But apparently, such move did not appease his and Super Junior's supporters. Sungmin then entered the army and issues about him quieted down.

Then again, now that it was confirmed that Super Junior is returning with new songs, and eight members are participating- Leeteuk, Heechul, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Siwon, Yesung, Shindong and Sungmin, fans quickly criticized the inclusion of the team's married member.

Upon learning that Sungmin is joining the comeback, comments like "Please, just go" and "Do you even have fans left?" were posted on forums and social media. Others advised him to just start his career overseas because they can't stand him anymore due to his betrayal.

Allkpop reported that fans also felt mistreated because he kept his engagement a secret and only announced it a few days before the actual wedding ceremony. Sungmin's marriage was also believed to have harmed Super junior since the members and SM Entertainment were against his planned marriage at first.

Due to his pending wedding in 2014, he constantly missed out practices for "Super Show" in Japan and this attitude angered many fans. They think Sungmin does not care and only thinking about himself.

It is yet to see whether SM Entertainment will act on this backlash and complaints. The question now is, will Sungmin still join the comeback?

Meanwhile, Eunhyuk, Donghae and Siwon are set to be discharge from the army in July and August while Ryeowook and Kyuhyun just enlisted not long ago. As for Kangin, it seems that he will not participate in this year's album since he is on hiatus following his second DUI case that happened in May, Soompi reported.
