Super Junior's proud leader�Leeteuk revealed his intentions towards appearing on variety programs.

On the July 18th broadcast of KBS 2TV 'Star Life Theater',�Leeteuk revealed, "Because we started out as a 'project team', I remember putting my life on the line [to do well] every time I went on an episode."

He added, "I became a fixed member of a show for the very first time on 'Star Golden Bell'. At the time, I thought a lot about how I would make people laugh week after week. I shamelessly tried so many things that sometimes my seniors would tell me to please stop."

Like the dependable, responsible leader he is, Leeteuk remarked, "I personally�wanted to become more famous on my own, but I knew that it was important for our team to become more popular and I worked to fulfill that mission."
