YES!!
I missed to be the first to comment on this derpiest group ever! :wub:

And there is a mistake in Jonghyun description, he's commonly known as "raptor" or "derp". Which is why he's forever on my list^^
Oh, I miss Key's old hair, even rainbow one. Right now I just want to scalp him, seriously...

Just read they will be releasing Japanese album in November, hmm... somehow I don't see their Korean comeback any time soon. Is it the fear of SNSD comeback or maybe SMEnt already gave up on another group?
Even hyper derp is laughing at Rushipa desu

and of course Mushroom Taemin.

I don't think Key has any special nicknames, except for Fox because of his personality.
Minho is often called Hyung-whore because he always hangs around with hyungs! And he is also often drawn as frog in fan pics.

I kinda hope they don't plan new album right away but get rest first!

SHINee's Japanese label revealed the release of the group's first ever Japanese album through their own website. The album, fittingly titled "THE FIRST", will include SHINee's previously released Japanese singles starting from the first one, "Replay -You Are My Everything-", till the third, "Lucifer".

"THE FIRST" will include 12 songs from which 5 will be entirely new, and will be released in a regular version, a limited, and a special limited box version. The regular version includes a CD as well as a 44-page photo booklet and an extra bonus track called "Stranger", which is an OST song for the drama "Stranger6".

The limited version comes with a 2012 desk calendar and a 68-page photobook with pictures from their stay in London from earlier this year. This version also includes a DVD with "JAPAN DEBUT PREMIUM RECEPTION DIGEST MOVIE in JAPAN & LONDON" footage.

The box version comes with an 88-page booklet, a limited edition button, a deluxe CD, DVD and calendar. The box also comes a voucher to download a full MP3 version of the album, a "JAPAN DEBUT PREMIUM RECEPTION DIGEST MOVIE in JAPAN" DVD and jacket shooting footage.

SM Entertainment boy group SHINee will be releasing their first Japanese album as soon as November 23rd. (koreaboo)
Hmm... :unsure:

Diva Key, but suddenly this nickname was tainted by other diva...

Uhh, so one more Japanese release, this time album... Thanks for the info.

Umm and yeah, that is exaclty why I don't approve Diva anymore. Of course they also have their introduction nicknames as Key Almighty and Minho, the Flaming Charisma and so on. Oh and Key Umma but it's just what Key is, not really a nickname. :mrgreen:

Well I can't possibly have ALL of their pictures. ^^ Thank you, got some new ones. Key has charming smile. I just wish I had time for all of those sites, I mostly only check Forever SHINee, Soompi and FB. Need to check INFINITE's sites too. ;) Well ok, would be better not to waste any time on surfing on the internet but they are so adorable/adorkable...

Some new japanese scans, if you read Japanese:

and download link for them

Just don't get why fans so hating on Dino though, yes, I read that all, and don't thing saying "I'm a straightforward guy" deserves being called obnoxious. In the second sentence he said he still gets nervous on the stage. Yes, I'm a butthurt fan now.

I think I got them from somewhere, probably from Forever SHINee. But thanks for the links. I can read some Japanese but I still have problems with kanji. I'm still beginner so only know 200+ of them. Still got a lot to learn. ^^

Hmm who hate Jonghyun? I don't think real fans because I haven't noticed anything like that. Mostly people just like only Jonghyun because of his voice and hate the rest of the group. Now that is more common.

Oh yes, kanji, no, I know over 1800 (but I have to), if you need any help, wink at me^^

I'm reading really huge amount of posts ever since few months, I think just before IS 2. Like people really hating him and that makes me turn into furious gumiho mother from Revenge of Gumiho, really. "unfriendly" and "indifferent" are the mildest words that people use.
Oh, and I think I wrote about that on the blog some time ago, but I came across some post of a girl that made bad photoshops of Jonghyun with some nasty messages on them (I get funny or sarcastic ones) because her brother turned out to be gay. And he listened to SHINee, and probably liked Jongie the most (I suppose).

I just don't get it, you like a group, OK, you like one member the most (usually, INFINITE made that rule invalid), but you don't hate the rest, right? I love SHINee, I really do, probably Taemin the least, but still I can go aww when he makes dumb comment (that is often).
This is also why I can't get the negative voices against 7 boys now. They don't display anything to criticize (like the said dumb comments or another Japan tour while you're supposedly serious *cough*actor*cough*), only because they earned 4 awards they worked their (quite good) butts off?

On top of that, I'm an adamant derpy Jonghyun fan no matter what, so I act b*tchy when badmouthing of mah baby is involved.

Having said that need to listen to Yesung's song for Idiot Dongsu. Dunno why, but it's such a nice song.

Their dancing is so lazy, it is visible they are dead tired.
Those pants, those pants... :salut:
And sorry but Onew and Jonghyun own it (well, Jjong doesn't own the dance part but still, here comes Key!)

And Sham, we can fangirl over Jonghyun anytime, you know^^

Ah, if you're talking about haters and antifans, yes they've always been there. At some point I got really fed up of reading all those billion comments about SHINee, how they suck and will never be even close as awesome as goup [add any old group name here]. There are very few rookie groups who have made to the top right away and SHINee is one of them. But also thanks to their strong debut, they also got a lot of antis at the very beginning, because fans are jealous and can't believe some rookies have talent to rise as high as old groups. And SHINee are very hard working and humble kids, they never took their strong debut as if they were better than others but kept learning more and getting better. In this way INFINITE reminds me of SHINee. And now that they have been recognized, they're starting to get haters.

Maybe Jonghyun just gets more of their attention because of IS2. They're mostly butthurt fans of some other group/singer who can't stand that some other idols can be successful too.

Oh yes, you're probably right, it's antis too. But some SHINee fans are saying that as well. Onew had musical, but I guess musicals are not on the same level of being hyped as TV shows so idiotic netizens didn't have anything to comment.

But you greatly summed up all what I came across.

To go to bed with a happy note - look at those fangirls trying to imitate the choreo (I would be bruised all over I guess) and Key's mistake, aww, he's such a cutie.
But seriously, get rid of the blonde asap!

I was typing in hurry so I forgot to comment on the NY performances. Jonghyun looked really tired and others a bit tired too. Defiently not their normal dancing. :-( Let them rest please... Also, I think they had some mic problems? There were a few times when their voices disappeared in middle of singing.

And about those fans, I think I noticed the same. I was almost sure she would hit her friend with her arms! :lol

And yup, blond is getting boring now... some other colour please. ^^ Key and Taemin look like a mother and son right now. And I think Key looked better with dark hair (and with pink & rainbow stripes). I actually miss their RDD and Lucifer hair styles. (Well not Taemin's perm... not that.) And Taemin looked really good with that bright red hair he had just before they started promoting at Japan. I guess it didn't fit to the Japanese debut concepts so it was changed.

I liked ShinEE before the flood.... and I adore Minho. He was so adorable when he was still not eighteen. those eyes. those lips. the whole group was my first favourite group. they used to be on TV a lot so why not now please.

Minho used to be on the team for that difficult competition show which is here on Friday night late. they do the really crazy stunts and Minho was so competitive and usually he won every time. then he got hurt and I guess they pulled him off the Dream Team and back to the group again.

SHINee's Japanese website has just revealed that the group's first Japanese album, "THE FIRST," will be postponed. The original release was set for November 23rd, but due to problems during its production, the album won't be released until December 7th.

"THE FIRST" will include 12 songs from which 5 will be entirely new, and will be released in a regular version, a limited, and a special limited box version. (Koreaboo)

I'm wondering how all the Korean groups will do in Japan when several groups have announced to release their album or single at November/December... And I actually wonder is it really financially more profitable to produce remake albums in other languages and not with own language when international fans would probably rather buy the original album anyway?

At least this album will have some new songs, making it worth to buy. I didn't even consider the singles.

Also: London Korean Film Festival
London Korean Film Festival

‎2011 London Korean Film Festival Opening Gala Concert: SHINee in London

Oh my, Lucifer hair, how I miss it!!
London, so close yet so far...

I was wondering about Japan promotions too, so many groups not only boys but girls' groups too. I guess the target audience not necessary is exactly the same, someone may like only WG so their japanese album will be sold, some probably will buy only SHINee or Infinite (and scan the book!!). The problem will be with oversaturating the japanese market and low sales in overall, I guess.
Plus, after what happened to Kim Taehee, I bet some nationalists won't be happy about that many korean artists on their holy land.

SHINee shuts down Odeon's ticketing server, one of Britain's largest movies and theatre server, after tickets for their upcoming event were released. On the 27th of October, tickets for SHINee's event for the Opening Gala Concert of the "London Korean Film Festival" were released. It was determined that tickets were sold out after just one minute.

The huge demand for tickets proved their immense popularity in the country after crashing one of Britain's largest theatre chain's reservation system server. It was reported to have been down for at least five hours after receiving overwhelming demands from fans who tried to purchase the tickets. The crash affected not only reservations for SHINee's opening gala but also those for other movie and theatre ticket reservations across the country.

Some of the fans who were unable to get tickets online made their seat reservations by calling the venue, while others queued at the actual theatre to get tickets.

SHINee will perform at the opening gala for this year's "London Korean Film Festival" and will be the first Korean idol group to hold a solo concert in the country. Previously, the group visited the country to perform in Abbey Road Studios for their Japanese debut reception.

On an official notice, a representative of Odeon revealed that, “It’s our first time to make server down by ticket booking. We never expect this much of people coming in all at once,” and it is said that for SHINee fans’ safety, Odeon will develop measures to keep order at the theater.

SHINee is set to perform their hit songs "Replay," "Juliette," "Ring Ding Dong," and "LUCIFER," and will also have an interview session for the event. The opening gala of "London Korean Film Festival" will be held on November 3 in Odeon's West End in Leicester Square.

There is dozens of fancams of the London perf, but since I'm stuck with Jonghyun solo, the rest didn't look relevant enough to look for, Mianhae :whistling:
Except for Key's head piece...

Thank you! :wub: Sounds like the cuties are doing fine. ^^

It's ok, I have seen some fancams already. Although, I'm not much of a friend of fancams. Can't stand the fan screaming....

I just saw Tamin's solo and wow, that boy is amazing! :faint: His singing has improved again and he's really getting closer and closer to his dream to sing ballads. I want this song so bad!!

Ahaha, but you know, I do have pervy thoughts, especially at those times at night, when not being able to sleep cause of pain^^ Riding the cowboy... I mean, the wrong one but still.... my mind gone... So be careful or join me in this.

Jjongie reacting to fanboys:
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5A3b6qmJvFs?rel=0" frameborder="0"></iframe>

And and probably you know, Korean gay community has chosen Jjong as the most adorable one (mehe, never suspected there is gay community in Korea though, hehe)

And since I saw Eunhyuk there:
Message from teh cutie

The tracklist - if only they'd release Amigo in the rock version korean, oh...

I have read about it somewhere that SHINee actually does have quite a lot fanboys / gay fans... But that was new to me that they chose Jonghyun as the most adorable member. I'm not surprised though, he's the puppy after all. His RDD hair... :wub: Oh how I miss it.

SHINee--Amigo(Japanese Ver.) Ringstone Preview
The crappy quality but anyway.

SHINee in London

Taemin said he will not take the University entrance exams because of busy promotions. I bet if he did and was admitted, netizens would eat him alive.

Damn I love you!! :wub: I lost a few hours listening all those mashups. I really liked the idea of Lucifer & I Am the Best mashup but SHINee's voices sounded so ridiculous... >.< I hope she/he will make a new version at some point with normal voices. Lucifer remix and Kiss the Replay were nice too.

And this person made even The Boys sound/look interesting. :lol (SNSD ft. SHINee - The Boys (short FMV)) I wonder if we get to see The Boys & Lucifer mashup at some point.

There are rumors about korean albums, ohoho^^

Glad you liked, love. My fav is SHINee vs TVXQ/DBSK - Keep the Luc!fer's Head Down, it's just so fitting somehow. Plus it's "Lucifer" backless shirt and I would eat that alive (sorry, I'm on SHINee withdrawal and I rewatch everything^^).
The SHINee/Boys mashup was bad in terms of waking up my... uhm... you know. Sleeping dragon. Boys tied, locked in cages... Mirotic all around...

[1] 気分転換方 means change of pace / mood.

Q63 What’s on your mind during a performance?
I think about movement and the dance before the performance, on stage, that’s where I’ll recall what to do while I perform.

Dukbokki. It’s not something you can eat easily, but it’s really delicious so please try it once.
In Korea, it’s (the) snack I eat when I get hungry.


Q65 What do you do on a day off?
Meet up with friends, go shopping, do lessons.

Q66 What sort of role would you want to play in a movie or drama?
I’d like to a play a “KEY” character. [2] It seems like it would be fun.

BoA-senpai… I would have (said) that, but, at SMTOWN LIVE we already performed together a few times. (laugh)

Q68 What was your childhood dream?
Singer. Artist.

Q69 Where do you want to go once.
Alaska. I’ve been to many urban places, but, this seems hard to travel to, so I’d have to think about a (time) when I could go at leisure.

Co-ordinating (an outfit) with sock as (the main) point. I want to try properly balancing (outfits) with various socks!

Q3 What’s your secret to keeping your slim style?
I keep active everyday. Photos of styles I like and clothes I find become my incentive.

Originally, it was ramen, but recently, I’ve started liking like Gyuudon. It can be eaten easily and it’s delicious!

Q5 What sport do you want to challenge?
Golf! I’ve had a lot of chances to watch it recently so I want to try it once.

Q6 Is there a reference you use for (fashion)?
Foreign celebrities styling. I check fashion on the internet.

One Piece!! I’ve been into it for many years.

SHINee Translation Excerpt: Ray Dec 2011 - Taemin Q & A Part 1

Q21: How would you describe your personality simply?

Meat! Just thinking about it makes me happy.

Q23 Recently what genre of music do you listen to a lot?
Quiet Pop. I like mellow tunes.

Eggplant. It’s not just the flavour, the appearance too, (being) purple, it doesn’t seem like it would taste good. (laugh)

Q25 Recently were you surprised by anything?
One of the staff was running while carrying me piggy-back. I was thinking “This won’t work”, with me (clinging piggy-back) (he) started skipping and jumping!
[1] I’m assuming it’s a guy.

Q26  What male image do you think is cool?
Never getting mad, someone that gives his all to (improve) himself.

Q27 What Japanese drama or movie is your favourite?
The anime One piece. Miyazaki Hayao’s work. Miyazaki Hayao’s work is very creative and so I enjoy it.

Q28 What about Japan’s culture and customs did you find surprising?
Rehearsals at the TV stations, etc. It surprised me how everything related is checked carefully beforehand then it jumped straight (into the real thing).

Q29 Do you still remember your first stage performance?
I remember it! The faces of my faces that I saw from the first stage, even now I haven’t forgotten it.

Q30 Is there a failure story you can tell us as it’s now?
There was a short story that I prepared with all of my effort. That I completely forgot at the critical time (at the actual performance)….
That was very regrettable.

Taemin is still gettting piggy-backed by the staff. :mrgreen:

Looks to me like SMEnt doesn't know what kind of future make for the boys. They are stuck in one concept I truly hate, their latest photoshoot doesn't help either.
Album is a crap, it's the crappy pop I can't even...
They are stuck in a mud, nothing changes and it's a pity to see the talent wasted like that.
But it may be only my opinion.

Thanks for the pics. ^^

At first I didn't really like the new songs that much because they don't sound like SHINee at all but then I realized that the problem is j-pop sound. But after listening the album a few days now I actually like Seesaw a lot, it has nice groovy feeling. Stranger is quite nice too but it reminds me more about Super Junior... and j-pop. I'm not really a friend of j-pop but I do like some songs.

I hope this album was just made Japanese people in mind and that the next Korean album will be more SHINee style and not overly cute bubble-pop.

and yay for new k-pop corner. :cheers:

Korean idol Minho of boy band SHINee will take on his second acting role in an upcoming SBS sitcom, according to a press release from the show's broadcaster SBS on Friday.

SBS announced that Minho will take on the character of a genius hacker named Minhyuk in the sitcom "Salamander Guru and Gang" (translated title) set to air every Friday nights starting January 27.

"Salamander," a ten-part series helmed by producer Park Seung-min, will tell the story of swindlers that capture a fortune teller in order to take over her job only to find out that they have a knack for telling people's fortune.

The show also features an all-star cast of actors Oh Dal-su, Im Won-hee and Lee Byeong-jun and actress Ryu Hyun-kyung.

Took me some time again to scroll nearly 30 pages of Forever SHINee. :mrgreen:

Grr that that they messed up with the teaser of SHINee's new song at SBS Gayo Daeju. :cussing: I'm dying to hear what direction they're going with their comeback. Though I'm not going to put my hopes high, all the good songs have most likely gone for EXO.

Professor Kim Nando of the best selling novel, ‘It Hurts Because It’s the Youth‘, has revealed that he is penning the lyrics for SHINee‘s comeback album!

Late December, the professor wrote on his Twitter, “To update you on my recent whereabouts, I’m currently ripping my hair out over writing the lyrics for SHINee’s new song. I’m also preparing a book titled ‘Trend China‘ as well as the release of ‘Youth’ in China, so I’m trying to pick up on the language while I’m at it. In addition, I’ve begun writing essays for the middle aged.”

Professor Kim Nando is a professor of Domestic Science at Seoul University. His best selling book is a message of consolation to anyone in the current generation that is finding trouble discovering their future. In an industry filled with hook songs and meaningless, repetitive lyrics, netizens are hoping that he’ll be able to give some fresh air with his wisdom.

Netizens commented, “Looking forward to SHINee’s track now,” “I feel so assured of SHINee’s comeback now,” “I hope that his lyrics can ring a new bell in the industry,” and “Anticipating it, Professor!”

Rumor has it that SHINee will be making a Korean comeback in early 2012.
via allkpop
I know, an old news, but anyway.

So, no more "loverholic robotronic" in SMEnt lyrics? Frankly speaking, I'll be disappointed, and I'll have to "Break it Down to you, Down to you" that I need it, and without it "True, true nae gamjeongeun gal goshi eobseo. " (courtesy: Bonamana lyrics, mehehe)

Haha, yeah. It's actually amazing that SHINee's most horrible songs based on lyrics are such hits. I don't think I will miss that silly Engrish at all. I just hope style will stay about same or more R&B.

Oh, and I found this jewel tonight and died of laughter. :lol
