Super Junior to be Featured on Arabic Program ‘SCOOP’ this April


Super Junior leader Leeteuk recently stated that he wished to see the Hallyu wave spread across the entire globe, and it seems like his group may enjoy that kind of foreign recognition this year. It’s no secret that Super Junior enjoys a large fan following on the international platform; in fact, it was informally revealed yesterday that the male group would be featured on an upcoming episode of the Arabic program SCOOP by Raya Abirached.


According to Abirached’s Wiki page, SCOOP is the most famous entertainment show of the Middle East. Abirached, a Lebanese-British TV presenter, is extremely well-known in the Middle East as one of the first Arab journalists to interview Arabic stars (Omar Sherif, Ragheb Alama) as well as top tier music stars (Beyonce, Mariah Carey, Shakira), film celebrities (Tom Cruise, Angelina Jolie, George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, Nicole Kidman, Clint Eastwood etc) and other names from sports and fashion. She has mentioned working with Justin BieberSarah Jessica Parker, Paris Hilton, Michelle Williams as Ryan Gosling as well. Abriached also hosted the American Idol competition in Dubai and is co-presenting Qusai Kheder Arab’s Got Talent.

On Twitter yesterday, Abirached (@rayascoop) tweeted, “After Got Talent, i am doing a Super Junior KPOP invasion on SCOOP, that’s April!” It’s unclear what kind of program this will be, but it seems to be a feature on the Hallyu Wave with a special focus on Super Junior, as they are indisputably one of the forerunners of the Hallyu phenomenon.

It’s definitely exciting to see Super Junior getting this kind of international attention. I’m sure many of our readers are looking forward to this upcoming episode, so stay tuned to allkpop as we follow this matter!
