Leeteuk angrily said to Heechul, "I've put up with you for 10 years!", and the two "fought" in the hallways until the moment they had to go on stage. They didn't talk properly for 3 months afterward, until they sorted it out over drinks after performing at an event in the United States. From then on, Heechul promised that he would take Leeteuk's side in the team's matters no matter what.
2. The Teen Drama Fight at Inkigayo (Leeteuk, Kyuhyun, Eunhyuk, Donghae)

Leeteuk left the waiting room angry, Kyuhyun went to talk it out but Leeteuk turned him away, Kyuhyun left for the upstairs hallway crying, and Eunhyuk cried in the waiting room. Super Junior won #1 on 'Inkigayo' that day, but the members were too angry with one another to properly celebrate during the encore. The members thought the situation was so serious at the time, that they might disband due to the fight, but on the same day, Eunhyuk performed well on the variety program 'Dream Team', and all of the members celebrated afterward.
3. Yes, I Can Do It! (Ryeowook & Siwon)

Siwon kept asking Ryeowook for a high-five, but Ryeowook didn't want to high-five him, and yelled at him to quit asking for one. Siwon, angry, said, "Are you prepared to cut ties with me for good?" Ryeowook, with his high-pitched voice, shouted, "Yes, I can!".
4. The Yesung Kick (Yesung & Kyuhyun)
Summary: (Video below starting ~ 10:40 mark.) This occurred in 2006 during Super Junior's "U" promotions, when Kyuhyun was still adjusting as a member of the group. Kyuhyun, who was trying to figure out if Yesung was more of a serious type or a joking type, decided that Yesung was more of a joking type. Yesung asked Kyuhyun for a bite of his ice cream, and Kyuhyun playfully said, "No!". After a few more rounds of teasing, Yesung suddenly kicked Kyuhyun's ice cream out of his hand.
5. The Battle of Bangkok (Leeteuk, Shindong, Sungmin, Eunhyuk)

Shindong and Sungmin kept making fun of his hair and his outfit choices, for nearly 3 hours. According to Eunhyuk, Shindong was the one making fun, while Eunhyuk laughed along. But Leeteuk, who grew angry at the constant teasing, suddenly got up and slapped Eunhyuk's neck, upsetting Eunhyuk. Leeteuk confessed that he lashed out at Eunhyuk at the time because he felt like he could not take on Shindong (who was larger than him) or Sungmin (who was learning martial arts at the time). Eunhyuk revealed that he cried from the incident, and he and Leeteuk did not talk with each other for 3 weeks.
6. The Inkigayo Sandwich (Yesung & Shindong)
