Уауу...

Не бях онлайн 2 месеца и какво е станало с горките деца?!? Key - къде му е адски яката шарена косичка о.О Предпочитам да бяха остригали Onew,да го разчупят малко и него де!Най-възръстен не трябва да означава най-еднообразен. На Minho му отива и късата прическа,но сладурските къдрици?? Защо всяка група трябва да си има и по една "принцеска" (в случая Taemin)??

Поне Jonghyun си го паресвам и чернокос.

 

 

Добре.

Като погледнах последните снимки за 15 път май им свикнах,ама все пак.....

Адашке, добре дошла в клуба да опечалените от посегателството върху красивите главици на момчетата :28558: Но честно да си кажа,

напоследък ги направиха малко по-човечни. Освен Taemin, за когото спорих с една непросветена приятелка, че той не е момиче :28558:

А заради този лайф и жестокото рапиране на Key съм склонна да му простя това, че е имал пръст в идеята за новата си прическа :mad:

И много яки снимки. За HIGHCUT:

А Jonghyun с тази прическа вече е прилично сексапилен :tongue:

И аз четох за това че го тормозят но мисля че това е от миналата година слух не знам дали е истина. Шайнитата според моите наблюдения имат най-много откачени фенове(по-скоро фенки) които постоянно ги следят и преследват. Не знам как го преживяват това аз щях да съм ги избила всички до сега :lol: А Таемин каквато е душа дори и да го тормозят едва ли ще каже....

Рок вариант на Lucifer :yes: и малка промяна в прическите на момчетата

Момчетата са супер , всичките им албуми са прекрасни и макар някои от старите им балади да са ми любими, трябва да призная, че последния албум е най-добър.

Таемин is my ultimate bias откакто ги видях и чух за първи път (:

 

Радвам се, че тук има фенове които пускат информация и поддържат темата ^^

Последното изпълнение с Тrax мога да опиша с една дума - EPIC. Напоследък момчетата бяха доста уморени и си личеше по гласовете им, особено Jjong но се радвам,

че последните им изпълнения са толкова добри. Но косата на Таемин. Защо? той всякак е хубав, обаче тази рижавка коса беше перфектна

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obI2H7rAOPg&feature=player_embedded

 

Всички са с огнени коси? xD ..Освен Minho и на Jjong само в краищата, макар че сега може и да е още по-червена.

Надявам се да се подготвят за клипа на др. песен от албума и да започнат нова промоция скоро.

И аз, иска ми се много да е Electric heart или Obssesion или квото и да е, ама да се върнат. И по възможност малкия да почне поне да се усмихва.

 

Не знам дали е давано това, но преди седмица-две го гледах и ми направи впечатление промяната в Темин и контролът му над гласа и въобще колко е порастнал. Много е сладко, а и има чудесни изпълнения.

Оу да и аз това го гледах преди време и толкова им се радвах. Темини определено се е променил, а гласът му е толкова хубав, особено като пее only one for me направо <3 и на muzit беше прекрасно, радвам се, че се старае толкова много и има по-голямо участие в албума. Напоследък и на живо гласът му е по-плътен и ясен от преди.

Албумът е безценен, няма песен която да не ми харесва, иска ми се да направят клипове на повечето, но ще си остана с очакванията :/

и на мен много ми се иска да е obsession, но все си мисля, че ще направят на a-yo или ready or not, каквото и да е ще се радвам, само да не чакаме с месеци завръщане.

всъщност това е пълен албум, така че е задължително да правят промоция на още песни нали?

чудя се щом на comeback-a пяха up & down дали няма да направят клип на нея, но се съмнявам..

Тцтц много си ги обичам и винаги ще им се кефя,но ги опропастиха с тези прически.Колкото и да се надявах,че с времето ще ми захаресват поне някак си,немога още да ги прежаля!!

Най-много ме е яд за косата на Key,те луди ли саа ?!? :huh: А и дългите къдрици на Minho :( Разбирам че трябва да са различни,но поне да им слагат подходящ вид!

Например за сладурчето Taemin нямаше да е зле него малко да поострижат и нямаше повече да се оплаква че не му харесва да го сравняват с женска красота

Просто всеки път като им гледам новите снимки и ми става тъпо <_<

Поне почват малко да им ги пооправят,но все пак ... -_-

Интервю за Y. Generation

SHINee-HEADER-YG.jpg

 

 

 

 

Our shining boys SHINee are finally back. This time they have transformed from their cutey image to a more glamourous macho image! They have retained their passion, innocence, straight-forwardess, charming and gentle attributes, only this time they are becoming more mature and revealed that they want to give out a more manly charm for everyone! Plus their out-of-the-box image this time is a “visual shock”, charming all their fans! This 5 lads just give off a strong and lethal seductive performance when on stage, no wonder they are “branded idol”, only SHINee can achieve that!

 

Q: All are raving that your new hairstyle is very unique and cool, all feels that it’s very suitable?

Key: I actually had this hairstyle concept a year ago but it doesn’t fit the image back then. Quite a lot of people have this hairstyle before summer, actually I was a bit skeptical about this hairstyle but now a lot of people are having this hairstyle, so I’m relieved. But I’m starting to worry about what hairstyle to don for the following album! Haha~

Q: What are the image reviews from your Japanese fans? Which member is the most popular?

 

SHINee: Everyone said we have become “real men” in just a year’s time! And that Minho is “Kim Hyun Joong” No. 2! Taemin is the most popular member among the Japanese fans because whenever the camera panned his face, the fans will always shrieked “Wah! Wah!”

Q: The music in “Lucifer” gives off a more powerful music vibe?

 

Jonghyun: The songs in this second album were not prepared after completion of “Ring Ding Dong”, actually we started preparation for this album while recording our second mini-album. Some songs were even recorded a year ago, so compared to our first album, the 2nd album has an even more calming and attentive appeal!

Onew: Up till now, we have not sung any easy songs. To be contemporary, we have accept all aspects of complicated components, even though it was hard to digest and understand. But after each listen, you can always find “something new” in the songs, so in the end just keep listening to it! The songs in “Lucifer” have a wide range so it gets more interesting after each listen!

Key: This time the title track “Lucifer” is a lot more powerful compared to our previous tracks and this album took the longest time to prepare! The whole album displayed both “young” SHINee and “adult” SHINee appeal. This can also be our brightest and beautiful period of our lives! We have also come of age after cascading our newcomer stage, of course, as singers we have to work hard to reach even higher goals!

Q: What are your special thoughts on “Lucifer” MV?

 

Minho: To achieve better effects while filming “Lucifer” MV, we had a discussion with the directior and gave our views. In the end, the filming took 12 hours to complete. Maybe not many noticed but as the MV filming took so long, there is a discrepancy in the execution of the dance moves in the MV!

Jonghyun: Correct! “Lucifer” MV filming is the longest filming MV we did, there are different set-ups and individual filming. In the end, it took 12 hours to complete and at the last moment, all our energy were gone. If you take a good look at the MV, everyone will notice the discrepancy in the dance moves’ execution. Ha~

Q: What are the reviews and reactions you received from people around you about your lyrics?

 

Onew: Those whom seen it, said “You must have been in love a few times!” Haha~

Q: Jonghyun wrote two songs in this album, Onew wrote one, the feeling must be great?

 

Jonghyun: This time, I wrote 2 songs, including “Up & Down” and “Obsession”. I’m very happy to be able to participate in song writing because the songs were chosen among the other songs submitted by other composers under the same terms and conditions, so I’m very very happy! This is very meaningful to me and the other members also contributed in creating the rap, so there’s really a lot of love description moments~ Onew also wrote “Your Name”, even though he has already received a lot of training in song-writing, but sometimes he is still quite critical about his own work!

Q: What’s your feeling when you first started writing songs?

 

Jonghyun: I remember when I first started writing “Juliette”, it took a night to complete and I felt a little embarrassed after reading it the next morning! But the feeling was awesome after the lyrics were matched with an interesting tune!

Q: What can the fans expect from this album?

 

Jonghyun: Never thought about it during preparation! When we decided on the album concept, we were more focused on letting everyone to know more about SHINee’s uniqueness rather than purposely manufacturing it. From “Noona Nomu Yeppo” image to “Juliette” frail weak feeling, it wasn’t what we wanted to display, this is just one way of showing SHINee. So this time we created a stronger manly image, rather than saying emphasized, it’s more like what who we are~

Onew: It’s like a growing process, we have matured a lot!

Q: After coming back together, whom has changed the most?

 

Taemin: I feel Key has matured a lot, nevertheless, compared to the first time performing on stage together, he’s a lot more mature. We were also amazed at his performances during our variety shows’ appearances, he has really become more natural~

Minho: From appearance, Key has changed a lot but the feeling has changed too, more like a man now. Since he went to university, he’s a lot closer to his peers. From an artiste’s point of view, he makes everyone comfortable in his company. When out on a movie outing, he would always talk in funny mannerism and bright sparkling eyes to keep everyone awake!

Q: Heard that when “Lucifer” been No. 1 for 2 straight weeks on a music program, Onew cried?

 

Minho: Even though we have received a newcomer award, the other album has also been number 1 but it was only when “Lucifer” became number 1, Onew sobbed and we were all shocked by his reaction!

Key: Don’t know why Onew cried but it was so unbelieveable, so I cried with him, but the feeling was a bit bitter~

Onew: It was during a long and empty period of time, I was thankful because of the fans’ earnest support and love, so I cried…

Q: In this album, was it your intention to bring a mature manly image into this album’s concept?

 

SHINee: We need a change! This album is the first time all of us have contributed in hairstyles, clothings and songs!

Key: Like putting on black eyeshadow and eyeliner, wearing tight-fitting netted outfits and bleached jeans, all these are part of our contributions for the album’s concept!

Q: Feel that after SHINee debuted, a lot of more younger hoobae artistes also debuted? How does it feel to be a sunbae?

 

Jonghyun: Now we have started to meet hoobaes at tv stations. We are still embarassed when we face hoobaes, there are also a lot of hoobaes whom are older than us, still finding it hard to get used to it~

Onew: At first it was still quite confusing, but now starting to realise “I’m already a sunbae” feeling!

Taemin: Now there are a lot of year 94 artistes starting to become active on the entertainment industry, so recently there’s a number of boy groups whom are high school students. When I see them it’s just like looking in a mirror to the old me, and I’m even addressed as “hyung”. Even though I’m still very young, but I’m starting to experience the feeling of being a sunbae~

Q: Are there any member in SHINee whom has the biggest difference on stage and off-stage?

Key: Everytime you can see Onew’s shy smile on tv but he’s not like that once off-stage!

Taemin: Even though Onew hyung is a model student and kind hyung, but in reality he’s very comical and four dimension. He will suddenly burst out into laughter in the car followed by shouting “bat” and begin to imitate a bat…

Q: Key has mentioned on his personal webpage that he wishes to go on a holiday, any destination in particular?

 

Key: It’s summer now, the temperature is very high and very hot. I want to go somewhere cooler for a holiday. I really like to go to Japan, also to the beach for sunbathing and having a good time with friends! This album’s promotional period is during summer so the summer promotional activities is really hot! Haha~We will work hard during this summer, please support SHINee!

Q: So you guys are still mindful about people saying that all of you “are slimmer than ladies”?

 

Jonghyun: Of couse we hate it! The truth is, our weight is more heavier!

Q: Onew whom has the musical experience, to you, what attracts you to musicals?

 

Onew: To be able to breathe together with the audience while performing a musical, this is the charm of musicals! It feels great because the audience can give you a direct feedback.

Jonghyun: After seeing Onew’s performance, he did really well, very meaningful!

Q: You guys have been together before your debut, it has been 5 years, do you know each other very well?

Jonghyun: For 5 years, we know each other too well, so even if we don’t talk…

Onew: No, we still have to talk, haha!

Q: Then what is SHINee’s unique charm?

 

Onew: To be able to show a lot of facades to everyone, this is our biggest charm! To see us maturing little by little, to let everyone know we can do this and also do that, to be able to face up to a lot of challenges!

Q: Saw your photos with Boa sunbae, seems to get along well?

 

Key: Boa sunbae has been active in United States for a while so we don’t bump into each other, very happy to be able to do promotional events together in Korea! We have become closer now through chatting. I like Boa a lot since primary school, I feel very honoured to be able to stand on the stage together with a famous sunbae. I will work hard, Boa sunbae has been very kind to me, I’m really very thankful to her!

Q: Do you guys like to get close to mother nature?

 

Onew: Actually, it’s not a bad idea to be able to live on a farm and be self-sufficient. The rest grew up in the city, so they are not interested.

Minho: If the tv program “Invincible Youth” invite us, I believe the most hardworking member should be Onew, haha! For Jonghyun, he’s already not a tidy person, so for him to do farming, guess nothing will be done!

Q: What is SHINee’s biggest dream?

 

Onew: Our dream is to be a good role model for all boy group hoobaes, it will be even better if our music can become part of the pop culture, we want to introduce to the world the best Korean music, this dream has not changed at all.

Q: Who are your inspirational artistes?

 

Jonghyun: Michael Jackson is the most inspirational to me! I also like T-Pain and R. Kelly.

Onew: I’m more inclined to old pop songs, so my favourites are Stevie Wonder and Elton John!

Key: To me, those inspiratonal artistes do not release albums, nobody can surpass their music, for now it’s a pity for the music industry. If I have to chosse an artiste, that would be Lady Gaga!

Q: What is your life motto?

 

Onew: To be able to have all types of experiences, one must always pursue something new.

Taemin: To believe in yourself and work hard, to always stay positive!

Minho: Never give up no matter what you encounter!

Key: To be happy!

Jonghyun: To be understanding from all aspects!

Q: Minho accidentally got hurt before the Come Back, do you have anything to say to SHINee World?

 

Minho: I couldn’t performed on Come Back due to my knee injury, I’m really sorry to our fans. I torn my muscle, need a very long time to recuperate, but it’s better now. I will bear with it for the fans, please forgive my carelessness. SHINee World is our world. Our world revolves around them. Really appreciate our fans’ love. If I can bow to everyone of you, I will do that. “Thank you very much” may not be enough but I hope the fans can take heart, we really appreciate everyone, so thank you!

Q: Feel that Minho’s injury has recovered faster than expected, really?

 

Minho: Eh, it’s recovering faster than expected because I managed to received professional physiotherapy treatment through my dad whom’s a football coach, so it recovered very fast. I was very cautious in the beginning, not to do strenuous exercise but within my limit.

Превод на интервютата за списание GQ Korea (английски)

Key

 

 

Q:Happy?

A:Because I have never wore these type of clothings before. Normally a more casual style, like a “teenager”. There’s so much to try, I only wish time can be slower.

 

Q:What are the things you can’t do when you are older?

A:Currently only the clothings we wear on stage. Some can only be worn during “Replay”.

 

Q:How do you feel now when you reflect back on your appearance in your debut in 2008?

A:I always feel that I definitely look much better now.

 

Q:Most 18-year-olds will be more concerned about their appearances, development of the muscles or changes in their voices. How about you, after monitoring yourself in these years?

A:Rather than saying that I’m narcissist, how about liking myself. I do not look glamorous or a model’s physique, neither do I have a good voice nor a good dancer but I still like myself?

 

Q:Anything that you desire?

A:Well, there’s a lot. Most people would decline to answer this type of question when they are asked. Sometimes I hear comments like I “wish I’m like Key, will be slightly comforted……, think it’s a waste of time if you give up anything now.

 

Q:You mentioned in a previous interview that you are very curious about age 28 years old and 70 years old?

A:If only I was slightly more professional back then. I really don’t know who should be set an example then. There’s no explanation for this type of scenario, I would sound really arrogant if my reply was “I do not idolize anyone”. But, there isn’t really anyone, what should I do? Currently, I do not have any idol. Rather than saying “I’m the best”, I would say I want to be “my own idol”. If only I can be one who accepts whatever others throw at him and not be calculative.

 

Q:What is your utter most desire on stage now?

A:What I can think of is to practice, to be prepared to have a perfect ad lib effect. For the very outstanding artistes, no matter what they do on stage they look so professional, otherwise anything will be like a mistake. Must be rigorous in any matter. One must be constantly on their toes on stage. You cannot even be a little lax. Everything has to be perfect. Of course you will lose certain values along the way. Michael Jackson mentioned before that one can’t think while dancing? That’s his opinion. For now, I still can’t stop thinking while dancing.

 

Q:Compared to the other members, you seem to be enjoying it.

A:I work hard to let others think that I’m enjoying it instead of being coerced into it. I can’t just sing the songs I like and dance what I like, can I? It’s because we are a team.

 

Q:Are you jealous of any team member?

A:Everyone will envy each other’s attributes. He can do it but I can’t, feel a bit embarrassed when you have these thoughts. Is it because of this desire that causes a lot of sunbaes to go solo…….. I’m not a good singer like somebody, not even as talking incessantly as somebody.

 

Q:Onew’s talking incessantly?

A:Most probably…..

 

Q:Jonghyun sings the most?

A:Because that’s his strong point. I want to imitate the process of this guy from being a so-so singer to a good singer. That process can’t be written by the media in a short article, if living in the present world.

 

Q:What do the other members envy you of?

A:We have never chatted and I will be quick to hide the truth from them. They will only feel that it’s speculation. Somebody does it very well, always very well.

 

Q:We feel that it is natural that there will be competitiveness, jealousy, rage etc among the 5 SHINee members. It’s because all of you are at a sensitive age and of course very sensitive incidents will take place.

A:Suspicion and jealousy can be disgusting. The scenario you mentioned, but only purely when one looks better in clothes? So I can’t hate him but only, “Ah, I want to can wear nice clothes too”.

 

Q:Are you guys like brothers now?

A:We are neither family nor closest friends. There’s no need for explanation but the word “member” is the most appropriate description.

 

Q:Sounds very impassive.

A:I think problems will crop up if we are like family members. You will begin to think more about the relationship rather than the person. The most accurate way of putting it will be, we met only because of work, “Working together with the relationship between loyalty”. I’m not impassive.

 

Q:Which direction will that loyalty veer towards??

A:Neither family member nor brothers. Will be good so long as the members are not misled by others, or being too stubborn to each own opinions. 5 of us have reasons for existence. Even though each of us has different fan bases but I feel that we are more significant because of “SHINee”, this is the members’ sentiments. No matter now or in the future, I feel that we are sagacious of the situation.

 

Q:You have crossed-dressed before, is it because you want to do it or a certain strategy?

A:I was coerced into it even though it’s very pretty. But it’s very different from what I imagined. I thought we were the main focus, we can control things…., but because we were coerced into it then, now we can differentiate between right or wrong. If there weren’t any control then and we were in control, I’m not sure how we would turn out now.

 

Q:“Replay” is more mushy, we saw SHINee’s wild ambition in “Ring Ding Dong”, now with “Lucifer” the media will say “SHINee are coming back with manly image”, but what are your fans’ reactions?

A:At that time, our noona fans will accept whatever image we have. Actually we are not those so called good-looking boyish group. We would also at times think out aloud “I don’t understand why the ladies are crazy over them”. This is very natural because we do not exude manly charm. Whenever we release an album, the media will always say “coming of age”. If I’m a passer-by, I wouldn’t be too crazy over SHINee. Only pretty, haha.

 

Q:What about the songs? This album’s “Electric Heart”…..

A:That’s my best track. I really like our songs. I once thought that it would be great if our album is value for money. Recent trend releases are a title track, followed by some annotation of a remix, the 2nd track will be another remix, the 3rd track is also a remix, the 4th track instrumental…. Really super irritating. Pretty annoying right? That’s how they repackage it. Our album consist of 13 new tracks and it’s also our top selling album to date. The public are not fools. Even if you are not an expert you can differentiate the quality. Even though the experts can say why it is good, the public can’t express by using technical terms but will buy it because it is good. Just like that.

 

Q:I noticed that you started looking through photo albums once you stepped into the studio, what kind of fashion focal point excites you?

A:The clothes, maybe it’s a little that if you put it that way. Everything in sight. I extremely love clothes because it is visual. But I like fine arts and dance too.

 

Q:Why do you think people like you?

A:Because I’m very innocent. I draw a clear line between liking and disliking towards people. As long as I dislike, I will detest that person.

 

Q:You are not very eye-catching in SHINee. But whenever you move or make a sound, you will brighten up the screen, just like a bass player in a band. No wild ambition??

A:This is the best, no burden.

 

Q:When idols became men want to turn back the clock, what is your definition of “men”?

A:That is a natural process, people will say “masculine” when it is not suitable.

 

Q:Presently is the best period of your life?

A:Not a boy but still not yet a man. I’m happiest presently, all my actions, things I’m scared of, thinking of my work and how to keep improving. I just hope that I won’t constantly think about “if only I can sing better I will have more fans?”. I want to sing better because I want to and not thinking “If only I sing well, dance well, rap well and people will like me? “Or” to get praises? Then I work hard. Do you get what I mean? Maybe that’s why I do not have any pressure.

 

Q:Will you be a singer for life?

A:I will give up if people dislike me, otherwise what can I do? Will be pretty scared then for their remarks. Most will only pursue what they like but there will still be a little reluctance even though it will be a decisive conclusion. Apart from being a little scared but still curious. When will it be? However if everybody dislike me as a singer, I will definitely not be busking on the streets, might as well have a career switch. I have never said such profound things. I feel sometimes whatever I said will be misquoted and everyone will think that I’m an arrogant and irritating guy. So I hope everyone will not misinterpret my words and actions. I’m not a bad guy, hope everyone understands that whatever my thoughts are, there are reasons and conclusions.

 

Q:Will there ever be a chance for you to sing your favourite song on stage?

A:Unlikely. What you like and what you should do are 2 separate issues.

Jonghyun

 

Q:What type of person do you see yourself as?

A:Me? I don’t lie. Really. I’m objective. And I’m blood type AB.. (opens eyes wide) Why do you ask?

 

Q:I was just asking. Do you watch your own performances objectively as well?

A:Um. I try not to watch them calculatedly. First off because the stage is created through practice, something about it is systematic in a general sense, so I think that I have to show myself enjoying it. If I think that it is so difficult right now, then I do it with difficulty. If I think that I really can’t do this, it all shows on my expression. I mainly monitor those things.

 

Q:If there is something lacking about SHINee’s stages, I think that perhaps your lackingness is lacking. Maybe with the song and choreography, everything is too tightly fitted and dense.

A:I think I know what you’re saying. Naturalness is the most difficult point. I can’t help but feel burden each time I stand on stage.

 

Q:On the flip side, you must have developed a sense of freedom and ease now as well? Does the song you hum day to day change with the weather?

A:The thing I think of most importantly, and so what I concentrate on polishing the most, is emotion. If the weather is like what it is today where it feels like the curtain is drawn, then I’m most true to that. But I forget quickly. It felt like this yesterday too but even if the situation is the same tomorrow it approaches with a fresh feel so there comes to be tens of thousands of expressions. Today I keep humming Wheesung hyung’s songs.

 

Q:In order to do something precisely your schedule must be too crowded. It seems like you may sometimes feel that you’re trapped.

A:I am trapped. However it’s not like that every day. Today’s weather is the type I particularly like so I think I am feeling more this way. A bit melancholy. I resolve that ‘Today I should raise my spirits like this’ and seek liberation. I think a lot about my trainee days. Rather than missing it..

 

Q:Time passes by fairly but ultimately it's different for everyone. How have you changed since your trainee days?

A:I’ve walked the road I’ve wanted to ever since I was young. I did everything the way I wanted to. I joined a band, transferred to a music school from my high school, dropped out and received my GED, then debuted, I’ve lived the way I wanted to. I’ve walked the road the way I imagined it. I think I will continue to that in the future.

 

Q:It seems like you have a life that just continues to flow. Do you like it?

A:I think that I’ve walked through it decently, but I don’t necessarily like it. I don’t like it.

 

Q:Where does the difference start?

A:You know, it’s like this. If I only look at myself I can’t really tell but when I look at the person next to me I feel regretful. In a notable example, I didn’t feel disappointed at all not being able to take my high school graduation exams. But when Minho took his I suddenly felt sad. Like a fingernail’s worth? It could just be a minor feeling of complaint. Since I’m still young.

 

Q:You’re still young?

A:Yes. That is really my shield. Saying that I’m still young, I do a lot of things I shouldn’t.

 

Q:At a young age you have accomplished a lot. With “Lucifer,” what more do you want to accomplish?

A:I want to hear that these kids are really good. And I did hear that. We did hear that during “Juliette” as well, but “Lucifer” is much more difficult than “Juliette.” The performance in itself. I think that if it wasn’t us, it wouldn’t be doable. This is confidence. When we first received the song I thought, how will we do this? But as we practiced I saw that we were doing it. I think that as we do this, it’s how we grow.

 

Q:As the team’s main vocal?

A:Um, I concentrated a lot on pronunciation. Not on whether the pronunciation is good or bad but on the issue of whether the pronunciation suites the song. Because I think that if I sing a song with a bit of a ‘rolling’ pronunciation and people go “What is this kid doing?” then I’ve sang it wrong. I sang “Replay” with that feeling and I heard that I did well and so I think I gained confidence. With “Love Like Oxygen” I felt a slight sense of burden. So I did go a little overboard but personally I liked that feel. If you listen to it a certain way isn’t it very funny? I sang the Korean lyrics with stresses and emphasis like in English. I wanted to give off the feel of Michael Jackson in that song. In “Ring Ding Dong” we went down to bass, a thick sound, I gave off a rough sound a lot. When we came to “Lucifer” I thought to throw that away, I wanted to lose that a bit and go with something more refreshing so I put in effort to do that but I don’t think that came across well.

 

Q:In comparison to that sort of careful effort, isn’t SHINee’s boundary a bit confined?

A:Um, in regards to SHINee’s fandom I definitely have a greed for more. Though I don’t feel dissatisfaction or have a prejudice towards being an idol. My greed is the people who liked the music from before the year 2000. I mean that I want to receive recognition from the people who say that music nowadays isn’t even music.

 

Q:What do you think about SHINee’s lyrics? There are times when I figure, oh, that’s just how it must be, but then I wonder, what does that mean?

A:That’s very difficult. I think that when mass appeal and artistry meet the very best music comes forth, but there’s a bit of a contradiction. It’s akin to liking hook songs but criticizing them at the same time. SHINee does commercial music. It is commercial music. It means that we have to do music that people listen to. As we do that we offer attractions and earn revenue. We have to make people hum along to our music. There is so much music, and the issue comes down to who will imprint it first. And with that momentum, to make people listen to it one more time, to make them look for it one more time.

 

Q:That must mean that what’s important is if you can persuade people with it, whether it be a hook song or not. Whether it’s “butterfly butterfly” or “ring di gi di gi ding ding dong.” It’s the fate of singers to convince the listeners to accept it, thinking that it’s worth it. Even if you take the stage alone.

A:Yes. Even if I’m alone on stage I’m going to sing. If I’m in a really good mood I could sing “Let’s Ride a Horse” without accompanying music. If I feel like I could die from sadness then I could sing Wheesung’s “Hell.”

 

Q:Don’t you have any impatience in regards to going solo?

A:I don’t have the greed to fill a song with my vocal. Because, I don’t know. For me particularly, when I listen to or make the music of the team called SHINee, I think that ultimately SHINee is me and I am SHINee.

 

Q:Looking at it as an objective person, what kind of team is SHINee?

A:A fun team. I think we are a dynamic team. Rather than a feel of, they do well, they’re impressive, it’s like a “there isn’t a kid like this anywhere else” sort of feel? A team where five kids like that are gathered together? There are so many people who sing better than I do.

 

Q:What do you want to steal and from whom?

A:Wheesung hyung’s sensitivity and emotion. It sometimes seems like he and I are similar in that respect, but he’s so much deeper. Also Naul shi’s vocalization, and Jungyeop hyung’s interpretation, if that could all be combined together…

 

Q:You may become a monster.. Um, the meaning of being twenty years old to a man?

A:An age when you should do everything you want.

 

Q:Do you do that?

A:I can’t. I can’t because I’m busy.

 

Q:But, what does it mean to be busy. It’s not like you don’t have time to eat? Isn’t every person in the world busy nowadays?

A:Because it’s like that, that’s why people go crazy. For three months I exercised really diligently. I did so without skipping a single day. But after beginning promotions I couldn’t exercise even once for about a month and a half. About that much? Not just exercise, but composition, piano, harmonics study, I keep going, if only I had time for it all, and as I think that regret piles up. Because with my personality I’m the type to pester myself, so I’m living thinking that it’s destiny.

 

Q:Right now at this point, what is the type of good music that SHINee could do?

A:Well. They’re quite at odds with each other. What I want to do and what SHINee has to do. I think it would be good if we did ballads.

 

Q:Are you preparing?

A:For now I have to rest. It’s my own personal thought, but when you debut as a singer your skills don’t grow. Since you’re so busy your condition continues to go downwards, and because in that state you can’t practice as you hope for your throat to return you have to take a break, but your schedule doesn’t stop. And then when a period of empty space does come around, you set yourself to work hard to raise yourself back up a little bit again, it’s like that. I think right now is a period where I should rest.

 

Q:You said your dream is to be a composer?

A:Yes, even now I’m writing songs. Alone at home. Recently I learned harmonics and a music program, it’s really like a new world. I thought of going to music school as the first turning point in my life. Lately as I compose songs I feel that it’s the second turning point. It’s much stronger than when I entered SM.

 

Q:If I come to pay more attention to you while watching SHINee, why do you think that would that be?

A:Because I’m short? Or because there’s one guy who stands out like he can’t be seen.

 

Q:Is that what you view your role to be?

A:Rather than that, I think that if you see me it’s due to the performance. I try to explode on stage. When energy that was bundled together overflows it explodes. I want to become like that. I hope that is the moment when people will remember me.

 

Q:If you become that sort of person, people would have no choice but to watch. But I think that perhaps throughout the entire interview you’ve only said proper things.

A:I know. It’s the third year since SHINee’s debut but until now we haven’t had any rumors. Something has to explode for it to be fun.

Taemin

 

Q:It took a particularly long time to do your hair, weren’t you tired?

A:It’s okay. I kept listening to music.

 

Q:What did you listen to?

A:Our song. I listened to SHINee’s 1st album.

 

Q:Do you listen to it often?

A:When we release a new album I compare it a lot to the previous album. How much did we change, how much did we improve. I listen for my own parts as well.

 

Q:I wonder if it gets tiring.

A:When it comes to listening to other songs, after time passes I don’t listen to them anymore but with our music I even look for the songs we recorded as trainees to listen. Listening to those I am often surprised. Haha. Because I think that I’m still learning I monitor and study a lot.

 

Q:You still seem like a newcomer, but it’s already your 3rd year. Do you still think you’re in the learning stage?

A:I still can’t believe we’re in our 3rd year. There are so many new things here and there, so I still feel like a newcomer. In particular every time I go on variety programs they always feel new. And I feel so nervous. Yesterday we went on “Entertainment Weekly’s Guerilla Date” and the MC had me do the closing talk. Even though it’s just naturally saying something like “SHINee will continue to work hard in the future,” I felt so nervous that I thought my heart would explode. I’ve always been a bit reserved. Ah, but when we become close I’m very active.

 

Q:Do you have a member you’re particularly close to?

A:Because the five members have been together for over five years now, we’ve seen everything there is to see and know all about each others’ personalities. Because we all know each other so well, there isn’t any one person to be particular close to or not. It’s not just me, it’s like that for the other members too. With everyone there are one or two points that fit well together. Key hyung and I like the same animation. “Princess Mononoke,” “Spirited Away,” things like that. When I watch football I watch with Minho hyung. I frequently talk about my worries and concerns with Onew hyung. Because Onew hyung is the leader and I’m the maknae.

 

Q:Fans also look at you as the cute maknae. You’re now eighteen years old as well, how does it feel to always be called cute?

A:When I first heard that I was being called cute I felt very awkward. Truthfully at the time the other member hyungs were hearing that they were cool and impressive, so I wanted to be told that I was cool and impressive too. But now, I really like being told that I’m cute. Truthfully you only hear those words during a certain stage. I think I have about 2 years left. It may be dangerous for the hyungs now. Haha. Not too long ago I went to make my citizenship ID and I felt very strange. During my trainee days I thought it was so fascinating when I watched Jonghyun hyung make his, so when I thought that now I’m making one I couldn’t believe it. I thought I’m going to seem less cute now…

 

Q:Since “Ring Ding Dong” it seems that you’ve been going for a more manly appeal. That applies for this “Lucifer” stage as well. What does it mean to not be a young boy, but to be manly?

A:On stage it’s the look in your eyes, the particular feel that comes from there. Um so… a natural charisma? I think that personality-wise you’re manly if you’re loyal and responsible. When I monitor other sunbae singers’ stages I feel that something about SHINee still looks boyish. But looking at someone like the Shinhwa sunbaenims, they looked manly and grown up even during their performances from a long time ago.

 

Q:If you look at the debut ages, aren’t Shinhwa and SHINee similar?

A:Ah, I’ve watched Shinhwa sunbaenims from their 5th, 6th albums on. I truthfully don’t remember H.O.T that well.

 

Q:Since you auditioned in 2005, you were thirteen years old at the time. How did you come to feel that you wanted to become a singer?

A:I wanted to since the 2nd grade in elementary school. Policeman, pilot, soldier, I liked those types of professions before that. I didn’t really careers like being president. I was pulled towards careers where you fight, a strong type of job. Ah, I suddenly remembered, when I was young I really liked “Dragon Ball” so I would play along. Should I say it was the dream to protect the earth. Then during the 2nd grade in elementary school my interest in music programs suddenly increased and I fell hard for dancing.

 

Q:If there is someone in particular you could pinpoint who made that happen?

A:Sunbaenims like Rain or Se7en, and Michael Jackson. I would record them and sing and dance along.

 

Q:They’re all solo singers. You must have for certain thought of standing on stage as a soloist?

A:No matter what I wanted to debut and succeed by myself. But then when I was a trainee, I spent time with other trainees and grew fondness and attachment. As that happened, I began to think that it would be so good to do it with someone else. Right now I fit so well with the members, and I love group activities. Though at some point if I have the opportunity, I have the greed to release a solo album.

 

Q:Anyone nowadays can make certain guesses about life as a trainee in a large company. Were there times you had trouble adjusting or when you felt lonely?

A:I’ve never had a time when I felt particularly lonely. Instead, there were many times I worried because my singing or dancing wasn’t coming along well. Truthfully I thought I wouldn’t be able to sing at all. I hardly ever tried singing, you see. Since I was young I only liked dancing, and when I entered as a trainee I was undergoing puberty so I hardly had any vocal training. I received brief training right before my debut, and I couldn’t hold a tune and couldn’t match the beats. People thought that I was a kid who couldn’t sing at all. So I did feel a bit disheartened. So even after debuting I kept practicing and practicing again. Even up until “Love Like Oxygen” things felt very uneasy. I know that too.

 

Q:That’s not something that just solves itself. Do you have someone you lean on during those times?

A:Onew hyung listens to me. Rather than telling me what to do in particular, he shows me many examples. He leaves the choice up to me. The fact that he worries with me serves as a big strength to me. Even with singing practice, I would practice next to Onew hyung when he practiced and learn from him.

 

Q:I thought that you would learn singing from Jonghyun.

A:Jonghyunie hyung helps me a lot when we record. He teaches me systematically by writing on the lyrics and going, “How would it be if you sing it like this, try giving it this type of feel.” Rather than sitting me down and teaching me every day he’ll give me pieces of advice in passing. Since he went to a music school his technical abilities are strong. I want to learn much a lot from the hyungs and become a singer who can both sing and dance well. And I want to act well too.

 

Q:You haven’t done anything after the sitcom, does taking up a challenge still have its charm? How is acting and performing different?

A:When I think about it one way they’re the same, and when I think about it another way they’re different. If they’re the same in that I’m showing something to the audience through the camera, then they’re different in with acting it seems like I have to go a little ‘overboard’ to come across well. Also when it comes to acting, because there are so many people who have been doing it for a very long time, there are so many things to feel and take in as we broadcast. As a result, it was a big help to me with the expressions I show on stage.

 

Q:Onew is already doing his second musical. You must have some thoughts of, I want to try it too, right?

A:I want to try it soon. Because singing, dancing, acting are all important in musicals I feel that much more greed. I think that if an offer came in right now I could do it right away.

 

Q:How about music. SHINee’s music in general is trendy, but it doesn’t express a specific genre or style. Is there something you feel greed towards?

A:Of course there is. Greed towards music that’s a bit grander and bigger in scale. However I don’t think it’s the right time yet. Because right now SHINee is doing music that we can do the best, doing music that only we can do. Everything we can try doing at this age, I want to try them all.

 

Q:The systems seems to be a bit too complicated for someone to make a breakthrough by just wanting to do it. When you choose a concept or whatnot, how much of the members’ opinions are reflected?

A:We exchange a lot of words. Among the members we talk a lot, of course, and with the producers of the songs and with the company we exchange countless words. As we do that we agree on ideas and go forth. I like this type of method.

 

Q:Conflicts must arise as well?

A:Occasionally there are times when we want different things. But now since we know each other so well and often discuss things together there isn’t any particular conflicts that arise. With me, I’m originally a bit stubborn but I’ve eased up a lot. In the past I would always argue that I was in the right all the time, but now if I’m not put in a losing situation in particular I’ll understand and go along.

 

Q:There must be someone who has a stubborn streak.

A:Um.. Often when we go to eat there are times when opinions are split. When it’s like that Key hyung goes “Let’s eat that, that, that” and everyone thinks. “Ah, Key’s stubbornness can’t be broken. Let’s be understanding.” Of course it’s done jokingly. Key hyung’s assertiveness tends to be the strongest.

 

Q:When you sing or practice there must be an unseen competitiveness?

A:Of course there is. When someone practices everyone follows and practices. And when it comes to monitoring we don’t just monitor ourselves, we study the other members as well. In the midst of that we compete to find our own styles. Jonghyunie hyung and Onew hyung sing so well. Minho hyung acts well and has variety sense. Key hyung is good with words. In this setting you can’t help but receive motivation.

 

Q:In that situation what do you do? When you’re so close to each other it can be a bit awkward to ask certain questions, something about it can feel like that.

A:Yes, I don’t ask about those things often. Since we’re so close it‘s embarrassing to ask. I just watch by myself and think. “Oh, look at that gaze.”

Minho

 

 

Q:How is your injured leg?

A:It’s okay now. I was injured just a few days before our comeback. I really worried a lot about what I was going to do. We prepared the album for over half a year so privately I did feel like it was all ruined.

 

Q:For a few weeks after your comeback you sat on a chair and sang, right?

A:People asked why I had a separate stage to myself. That the concept seemed pretty good. And some would talk without really knowing the situation. Haha.

 

Q:Because the choreography is so fast it seems like it would cause difficulties even for healthy legs.

A:It’s not an addictive song with an addictive choreography, but a rhythmic choreography that matches each beat. Because it passes by so quickly that it’s hard to follow along, people say they can’t remember anything from it. It’s difficult when we come down from the stage after performing once.

 

Q:What thoughts cross your mind while you’re on that stage?

A:During our debut the dance that had been absorbed into my body just came out, but now I think that I dance knowing exactly what steps and actions I’m doing at that moment. I’ve developed a sense of freedom.

 

Q:You’ve come saying that you’re a contemporary band, do you feel alert of running ahead of the trends?

A:All the members have that pride. I want to create a stage so that people will say, those guys can absorb and pull off even those types of things. At first rather than thinking that it’s unique, I thought, will I be able to do this? Will I be able to carry out this fashion and song? Those were the first thoughts that struck me.

 

Q:In that case, what about a song like “Replay.”

A:When I first listened to that song, I laughed a bit. Putting it simply, we’re directly saying that nuna is so pretty. At first I wondered, how should I express this? Can I do this? But as the five of us worked through it, it was possible. Aye, even if it’s embarrassing, we can do it if we do it together.

 

Q:If you had debuted with a different song, would SHINee have been different from the group you are today?

A:There’s nothing like that. I’ve never thought even once that we selected the wrong song. Rather, because we have that sort of image I think that different charms are able to be highlighted.

 

Q:Is this album charismatic?

A:I feel good each time we release an album. But I always feel regretful. Until now there really hasn’t been a single thing that I liked 100 percent. Although I feel satisfaction in the accomplishment.

 

Q:Do you have any greed to take on more parts?

A:Because it’s important for the five members’ colors to unite as one, I don’t think it’s important for individual parts to stand out. Of course there are parts I feel greed towards, but if it’s decided that another friend is going to do it, it’s because that friend is the best for that part. Everything we have done was the right thing, I feel.

 

Q:You’ve also taken on the responsibility of creating raps, right?

A:Truthfully, minus a couple of songs you could count using just one hand, I’ve written almost all of the raps on our album. Although there are times when I think that it would be nice if people acknowledged that, at the same time they may also be very trivial parts that could easily be skipped over. I don’t think that I should go around saying that I did this, I did that, wondering why people won’t give me recognition. I gain strength when I see the writings of fans wondering, Minho oppa did this but why won’t people acknowledge it?

 

Q:Did you find it to be doable?

A:At first I was very bad at it. But if I didn’t do it then it would be detrimental to me as well as to the members so I thought that I should really try to do it properly. It’s true that when you put in effort your skills change. I thought, there isn’t anything that can’t be done if a person really tries…

 

Q:When an acquaintance came into the studio before, I was a bit surprised to see you initiate the handshake first. Because it doesn’t seem like something a twenty year old would do…

A:When I’m with adults I realize that I’m very young and that I don‘t think things through enough, but when I’m talking with friends I think, ah, because I entered society and experienced things early there’s a lot that I know. When I send a text message to my closest friend saying “Listen to your mother,” my friends are surprised.

 

Q:You must do things that suits a twenty year old as well, right?

A:I watch TV and play games and do everything like everyone else… Ah, during this recent break I enjoyed college life a bit. As I did that I really thought, you know people have their own lifestyles. I think that my lifestyle is very different from that of other twenty year old friends. Some mornings I wake up early and take in my schedule. I do that for a few days then one day I sleep in really late. Photoshoot schedule, radio schedule, music program schedule, variety schedule, each day differs like that. This is a celebrity’s lifestyle, and I saw that in a regular college student’s lifestyle you wake up early and go to class and when class ends you eat and play with friends. Ah, so this is why you experience it. This is why it’s so different to actually feel it yourself. The way college friends live is very routine, and I really could feel that I’m living a bit differently.

 

Q:Your school life must be a bit more comfortable now that you’ve made friends during the beginning of the semester.

A:I am a student who is earning money, but even if I try to buy my friends a meal they always insist on paying Dutch, on eating cheaply no matter what, finding a food and beverage shop to eat at, and when we did that I thought ah, this type of day to day life is really fun.. Those friends don’t know but I feel it. It’s also fun to take the bus and the subway when I go to school. It’s a given for a college student to ride the bus and the subway, but when I say that I take public transportation everyone seems to look at me with fascinated eyes? I find those gazes to be fascinating too. Ah, I rode on the 10,000won subway once too. The one where you squeeze in. Oh, and the thing that was the most fun after debuting was watching people selling things illegally in the subway.

 

Q:It seems like you’re even going to say that exam periods were fun.

A:I took both the midterms and finals. After my debut I haven’t properly studied for an exam. The feeling that I went back to being a middle school student after a long time? Sitting in the private library with my friends going, this book, ah, like this, ah… really.. I felt happy.

 

Q:What about your grades?

A:I don’t have any F’s. I also have one A.

 

Q:Was your football coach father more opposed to you pursuing sports or you becoming a singer?

A:He was very opposed to my becoming a singer as well but he was more opposed to my becoming a football player. Because he knows the difficulties well. He says that he didn’t want to put his child whom he treasures the most through that hardship.

 

Q:If you had become a football player, the history of the movement of the audience may have been different.

A:Haha, no. It wouldn’t have been like that. If I had taken up football, though of course I don’t know how things would have ended up, I don’t think I would have been very good. Because of my father’s opposition I wasn’t able to play football much during the period I should have been learning the basics..

 

Q:But you were the ace on the program “Let’s Go! Dream Team Season 2” where you were a fixed member. But you would get angry during the variety program.

A:Haha. I’ve always had a bit of a strong sense of competitiveness. After filming Dream Team, on days I won I would be in a really good mood, and on days I lost I would keep thinking about it. It’s the same as when I make a mistake on stage. When I mess up on one step on stage, I feel hateful towards myself. I grow angry. Wondering why I did that that during that step. I think it’s because my competitiveness is so strong. But that doesn’t mean I enjoy competing. Instead, if there is a competition I tend to avoid it. Because if one wins, the other loses. Because any person, no matter who it is, dislikes losing.

 

Q:Did you unfairly lose at something once?

A:When I was young everything was a competition with my older brother. In elementary school my hyung went to a school you had to take a test to be accepted into, and I was rejected from that school. Since then I think that I began to feel that I had lost. My older brother was always the class representative and is strong and is good at sports… I lost at everything. My hyung is also competitive so if we lose we’re the style to go the entire day not looking at each other.

 

Q:Now that you’ve succeeded with SHINee, a reversal of wins?

A:No, it’s not like that. Ah! What’s really amazing about my hyung is, when I debuted he got lucky. He grit his teeth and studied and was accepted into Seoul University. I went “Ah, hyung, really, daebak, recognition.” And hyung told me that he felt like he had lost so he worked even harder.

 

Q:Outside of family, do you have someone you would like to grit your teeth and win over?

A:Rather than trying to win over them, the people who give me the most motivation would be my members. We live together and practice together, we’re attached for 24 hours. As we do that, I think that we progress learning from each other, seeing what we each lack and filling each others’ deficiencies. Not like rivals, but people who help each other and are each other’s strength? People who make it possible for me to firmly grow.

 

Q:Is there a member whom you particularly lean on? A member with whom you want to have a drink with.

A:Um, I don’t think there is in particular. I think I lean on all four members. But I don’t know what the other members think. Honestly for me, it’s all of them.

 

Q:If you heard someone wonder if you’re succeeding with your looks?

A:I would receive motivation. I’ve heard those words before. Because I knew that I was lacking I worried a lot at first when I debuted. My skills were lacking, but my company was saying that I was going to debut.. I think that I caused myself a bit of stress during that time. At that time I heard that I was getting by with my looks, so I was more motivated and I worked hard on my singing, dancing, these things all at once. I thought that I really need to accomplish this now. I’m really lacking so much.

 

Q:If you say things like that fans may be disappointed.

A:I’ll just have to show them more. If I have the opportunity I want to try acting as well, but I don’t think I’d be good at it. Although I think I would work hard and put in a lot of effort because I know that I’m lacking. I don’t think people would go, wow, he’s good.

 

Q:From whom do you want to receive praise?

A:My mom and dad. That makes me happiest.

Onew

 

Q:Love is patient, love is kind*, the song “Love is Always,” do you know it?

A:It’s also a reference to the ‘o-new’ of summer**. Haha. I’ve heard that my name was created as reflection of my personality. I don’t really know, but the people around me say that. That my name matches me well.

 

Q:You’ve been defined as ‘flubber,’ a person who doesn’t know where he’ll bounce, and people around you also say that unlike the calmness of nature you’re 4 dimensional and silly?

A:I’m not silly. Since I debuted at a young age people around me have watched over my growth. Perhaps that is why they say that? I’m not that special.

 

Q:It seems that you may be referring to something else when you say that you’re not special?

A:I think I’m just ordinary. I really changed a lot after debuting. My personality was originally quiet, but in comparison to my age I’ve gone around meeting and getting to know many people, so I’ve become outgoing to match the atmosphere.

 

Q:Do you have a thirst as an idol singer in regards to freedom?

A:I have plenty of freedom now. The things I can express I’m expressing as a MC, singer, musical actor. I’m not in confinement somewhere.

 

Q:Did you ask the people around you for their reactions to your lyric-writing for this album?

A:Speaking honestly, I don’t think that there are many people who will speak truthfully about everything to those around them. Only my parents, close friends, and members can speak of my personality with certainty. However, I wasn’t able to receive much feedback from those people. So I don’t think this portion is something I can speak about with certainty.

 

Q:Rather than speaking with uncertainty, do you opt to not say anything at all?

A:You don’t know how other people will accept words you say by mistake. I believe that you can change a life with just one word. If I feel that I’m in the wrong then I apologize no matter what. If I happen to slightly brush past someone on the street I say that I’m sorry first. That’s what my parents taught me to do since I was young.

To always greet the security ahjusshi even if I see him several times a day. I think the inner thoughts that I formed as I lived like that have made me who I am.

 

Q:What do you think when you compare the lyrics Jonghyun wrote for “Obsession” and the lyrics you wrote for “Your Name.”

A:“Obsession” is better. They are lyrics that feel a lot more than the scenes I’ve seen and thought of up until now. Even though I concentrated on the lyrics as well, I don’t think they’re always right. I don’t think there’s an answer. There are many points in “Obsession” that are missing in my lyrics. Though another person’s thoughts and my thoughts can’t possibly be the same.

 

Q:So you’re saying that although it wasn’t the best, it wasn’t particularly the worst either?

A:I did what I wanted to do and what I felt was fun. There are so many people who are better than I am. Though of course there must be people who are worse as well.

 

Q:The lyrics for “Your Name,” and the title of the song you sang with Kim Yeonwoo is “The Name I Loved.” Do you have something with names?

A:There’s a part I wrote while thinking of my mother. Rather than being called by their names, mothers are usually referred to as so-and-so’s mother. I felt that when they’re called by their names something would reach out to them more.

 

Q:Kim Choonsoo’s “Flower” approaches that topic.

A:It was that sort of meaning. I think it means that the general practice of calling them so-and-so’s mother is awkward. There are pet names between lovers as well. I thought that in relationships of love and affection, names would be very important.

 

Q:When people call you by your real name ‘Jinki’ and when they call you Onew, do you feel a difference about yourself?

A:There is a difference, but as I’ve been called that for 3 years I’ve gotten accustomed to it and it’s no longer awkward. And people tell me it matches me well. Some fans say that Jinki has more sentiment. Truthfully I also like it a little more when I’m called by my real name. It’s precious because it’s the name my parents created for me first. If my parents had called me Onew from the beginning, then I would be Onew.

 

Q:What would you want your significant other to call you?

A:I would like it if another pet name was created. But if I had to choose between the two I would like my real name.

 

Q:Do you have a nickname close friends call you?

A:I do. They call me ‘yah.’ Haha. My friends don’t call me by a nickname. Adults often did. ‘Jinki Myungi.’

 

Q:You know that fans say that they’re “aching for Onew,” right? Because it’s used as a term of endearment it’s a bit complicated. You use this term when you like someone but no matter how much you endure you can’t fill the void. What sense of responsibility do you feel towards these people?

A:I think that I need to repay them. Even if things are really difficult before going up on stage, I know that if I just complete this I’ll receive strength from fans and create synergy. When I’m on stage I unconsciously do things that fans will enjoy. I wonder how I would perform if it wasn’t for these people. I first began all this simply because I enjoy singing. Without a sense of responsibility or burden, I want to do this for them.

 

Q:I felt quite sad for you when I once saw you talk with the air of ‘one day I’m going to try dating too.’ It’s not as though dating is something that needs to be postponed. In order to pursue music you’ve sacrificed a lot. So if there is something you’ve gained, is it that explosive emotion you feel on stage?

A:I believe that it will occupy many different parts. At concerts I often feel a sudden burst of emotion. When cheers come and go I feel like I was physically hit.

 

Q:Rather than on the stage, how is SHINee’s musical profession being set? As the leader.

A:This is just my personal thought, it may be different for the members. It’s to become the contemporary band in all the aspects we always talk about, like fashion, music, dance, artwork, everything. Honestly, even with “Lucifer” there were many points that were difficult in terms of public appeal. However, didn’t the public ultimately came to understand and like it? I think it would be good to lead the contemporary in such a manner.

 

Q:By saying that, does the public point to all age groups?

A:That’s right. Like when you talk about the South Pole you think of penguins. So that when you talk about contemporary, you think of SHINee.

 

Q:The composition of idols receives love from all age groups, but don’t you think there ultimately is a limit?

A:I don’t think of that as being the answer. It hasn’t even been 20 years since idols began to debut. I think that if we do well we’ll be able to promote for as long as we want. There’s a lot left ahead without restriction.

 

Q:You see it as being longer?

A:Objectively I’m still young.

 

Q:What do you think the virtues of a person who is acknowledged by society as a grown-up, a man who is an independent adult, are?

A:Above all dreams, aside from character and personality. I think that if you just think that you’re going to do everything you want to, then everything is possible.

 

Q:How about a man who cries easily?

A:He can cry. Every person is different.

 

Q:What do you mean by different?

A:I said that objectively. Personally I think that somewhere there is a person who looks like me or behaves the way I do. A person who is simultaneously doing the same thing as me or singing the same song. I have many thoughts. It’s a bit strange.

 

Q:You are a ‘musician’ and are referred to as an ‘artist,’ it seems quite natural that you would think that there’s someone out there who is the same as yourself.

A:I think that somewhere there is a person having the same interview that I’m having and doing the same work that I’m doing. I don’t think that only our earth exists.

 

Q:What do you mean by that? Andromeda?

A:It could exist outside the universe, or it could be something that makes us look like a speck of dust, or something that’s a speck of dust to us.

 

Q:By any chance do you put in a lot of effort in studying physics?

A:I want to. I also want to study psychology. I’m accustomed to thinking to myself, but I think that certain parts would become official, and be cleared up.

 

Q:Most recently when you cried on a music program, there was much speculation about your tears. Your colleagues said that the preparation for the 2nd album wasn’t that difficult, and that they couldn’t understand. I wonder if perhaps you faced difficulties through your individual schedules like your musical “The Brothers Were Brave.”

A:That could be a part of it. But I think that when a person cries, he doesn’t necessarily think of just one single happening or moment. We won 1st place and I cried, that’s true. However, it would also be true if I said that I didn’t cry at winning 1st place. Couldn’t I also be crying because of my maternal grandmother who treated me warmly? I didn’t cry because of a certain reason and I didn’t cry because of a lack of it either. Everyone is different.

 

Q:You say that people are all different quite often. What about SHINee? Do you have characteristics that make you different from other teams?

A:We’re working to give off something that is surely our own. Giving off our own color is the ultimate point. However, I think with that comes personal satisfaction. If we reach some point and go “Now we’ve become SHINee,” wouldn’t that be the end?

 

Q:Just as you wrote the lyrics for “Your Name,” I hope that you will be able to write the lyrics for SHINee.

A:There are many different directions that can be taken. I could choose many, or I could choose one, or I could not choose at all. You can say that taking on various activities from different fields is an effort to collect diverse experiences and make a broad choice.

 

*In the Korean lyrics of the song, the actual word used is “onew.”

** “O-new-wol” is short way to refer to the months of May and June. Onew is joking about his stage name.
