Overview
- On November 1, Grupo 5 posted an English video from Christian, Andy, and Elmer Yaipén inviting Si-won and Super Junior to “make cumbia together” and urged fans to tag the artists.
- During a recent TikTok live, Choi Si-won said he respects and loves Grupo 5’s music, said he would like to meet them, and danced to “Amor de mis amores” and “Motor y motivo.”
- Clips of Si-won reacting to the songs spread widely on TikTok and X, prompting a surge of fan requests for a cumbia–K-pop crossover.
- Super Junior performed in Lima on October 16 for its 20th anniversary, and though the group has worked with Latin artists like Reik and Leslie Grace, it has not entered a traditional genre such as cumbia.
- As of now, neither Si-won, Super Junior, nor their management has announced an agreement or timeline for a collaboration.
