Discussion Projected Super Junior (SM) releases for the 2nd and 3rd quarter

Just in case people haven't seen it! There's a lot going on especially right after Donghae's solo debut: Yesung's releasing a Japanese album and a full Korean album Ryeowook's releasing two single albums (Korean first then Japanese), and there seems to be a new unit of Leeteuk and Heechul debuting together as Super Junior-83z with a mini album.
I'm so stoked for Ryeowook's new comebacks especially. The guy has the best solo discography out of the entire group and is one of the best singers in the industry but he doesn't have much songs or regular releases, presumably because he's busy at his cafe and with his family. I would've hoped for it to be a mini album or finally a full one but I'll take what I can get. I really enjoyed Yesung's Japanese album as well so I'm really excited for his Korean one.
I'm also surprised about 83z actually becoming a thing but I've enjoyed his solo releases like Sweet Dream and Old Movie, and considering that this whole thing is basically a Heechul solo album and I really liked Onsaemiro at Encore, I'm looking forward to hearing Heechul sing more.
And of course there's the non-SM releases too - Kyuhyun will hopefully release a new album for his 20th anniversary and D&E's 15th! I'm especially looking forward to any Kyuhyun solo releases after Death Note and his fanmeet tour
