Meet SHINee!

Meet SHINee!!

This is very late. I really should have wrote about SHINee for like my 2nd post. Because they are the group who got me obessed with Kpop!! The first Kpop song I ever heard was Lucifer  by SHINee.. And the 2nd Kpop song I heard.. Was Ring Ding Dong! 2 amazing songs by amazing people! Ever since I heard their songs like 3 years ago, I have been in love with them.

Members:

Lee Jin-Ki (이진기) Onew (온유)

Ahahaha he moves. (':

LEE JINKI!! Why does he not go by this name?? Forreal! I love this name!! Lol! It's so much fun to say. Like, really, when I get married to a Korean I am going to have a baby and name him Lee Jin-Ki. Which means I will have to marry someone with the last name Lee. So all the younger Lee's in South Korea look for me when I get there, kayy? I want to have your babies. LOL Im totally almost kidding. So besides the amazing name that he doesn't like, Onew has an amazing voice. It is seriously unique. He is the strongest, and best singer in SHINee. You can always tell he's singing out of everyone because he has a unique voice that defines him. Mr. Lee Jin-Ki was born on December 14, 1989, in Gwangmyeong, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. This makes him 22! Heyyy Mr, Jin-Ki you aren't too old for me!!! And if my mom reads this she's gonna be all like "HEY! BACK OFF MY ONEW!!!!" And Imma be like. "No." lol seriously we will probably have this conversation later. Onew is the oldest member of SHINee and the leader. He makes a great leader. Not as good as Teuki from Super Junior though." many times, he's appeared on a few shows as himself. And sang a solo song for the drama "To The Beautiful You" which by the way I really want to watch.  Anyways.. He's been on Super Junior's "Kiss The Radio also.

Kim Jong-hyun (김종현)

This cutie here is Jonghyun. Jonghyun was born on April 8th, 1990, in Seoul, South Korea. Though I did say above in Mr. Lee Jin-Ki's introduction that Onew is the best singer in SHINee, Jonghyun is very close to the best vocals. Just like Onew, when he sings, you can tell. He has a unique and amazing voice. He can sing REALLY REALLY high. His personality is absolutely adorable. He's so cute. Like really. When you watch him in everything he does you can't help but get a HUGE smile on your face. Jonghyun has been into music ever since he was in junior high! He was in a band and also participated in festivals in his region! Surprisingly, in that band he was in, he wasn't the vocals!! He was the bassist!!! Dude's so cool. <3<3<3<3<3 He has co written and written many songs by SHINee, but 2 that really stand out are "Honesty" and "Alarm Clock". I LOVE THE SONG HONESTY!! It is so great, really. Now one thing I should really say about Jonghyun is that he did a solo song for the drama "City Hunter". This drama was beyond amazing, okay? The solo song he did was, "So Goodbye". This song is absolutely beautiful and brings tears to my eyes everytime I listen to it. Which is kinda ironic because he is saying "So goodbye, don't cry and smile"

(Update as of 1/3/18) .......Writing this 6 years ago I could have never imagined anything like this would happen... I love you so much, Jonghyun. You did well, baby boy. RIP.

Kim Ki-Bum (김기범) Key (키)

AGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! BUMMIE!!!!!! This cutie is Key and I am completely in love with him. Yes.. Yes I am.. And guess what? He can speak English. He studied for 6 weeks in America for an exchange program. I want to just go up to him and say.. Key... Will you marry me? And he'll be like nooo. But oh well I would get to ask him right? LOL! Jk I am a serious fangirl.. But not that much. So Almighty Key was born on September 23, 1991 which makes him 21. He is a lead rapper in SHINee. Now no that doesn't mean that he is the best. He is not the main rapper. He's just a lead rapper. He is known for being multilingual and for learning dances to girl idols songs. He does a mean dance to Mister by Kara. Also he does Abracadabra by Brown Eyed Girls really well. He does other dances. And he does all of them so good. lol

Links to Key dances:

Key - Mister

Key - Hoot

Key - Abracadabra (hes the blonde one who flips his hair up)

Also these 3 videos here make me laugh so hard everytime I see them:

Key yelling at Taemin and Minho for being loud while he's telling a story.

Key's Aegyo to Minho

Key's Aegyo.. Sooo funny. lol

Choi Minho (최민호)

HAHA That picure moves.. Yay! Well anyways... This cute/sexy thing is Flaming Charisma Minho. He is the main rapper of SHINee. And you can always tell when he is rapping and not Key. Because he has a lower voice. His raps are usually low. While Key's are usually a little higher and cuter. lol but Minho's raps are very serious sounding. Minho was born on December 9, 1991 in Incheon, South Korea. He appeared in the Girls Generation (SNSD) video "Gee". Both the Korean and Japanese versions. He is also quite the actor. He first starred in the drama "Pianist". He has also starred in "Salamander Guru and The Shadows" and is currently in the show "To The Beautiful You". He has written almost every rap to every song, or at least co-written it. This guys is seriously talented. He graduated from Konkuk University's high school. He now currently attends Konkuk Universitys part time admittance for the arts and culutral film major. I love him so much. He's also really good with kids. He has been on Hello Baby with fellow SHINee's. He was really the best with Yoogeun.

And he also looks just like him. LOL! They were so cute together. All of SHINee really did a great job with Yoogeun. I was very proud. Also I found a cute video of his favorite dance!(:

Minho's favorite dance. LOL

Lee Taemin (이태민)

Oh Taemin.. why must you be so adorable. Now as you see in these pictures he is just adorable. No questions asked. Just wait until you see my next blog. He's not adorable anymore. He turns hot. Oh yeah. Taemin has grown up on me... Forreal. It's a bittersweet feeling. Well anyways, Taemin was born on July 18, 1993, in Seoul, South Korea. He is now 19. He's the cute maknae(: Eeee. Ok well.. Taemin is the Dancing Machine. He is the dancer of the group. And that is obvious if you see him dance. He really stands out from the others. Especially from poor Onew and Minho who aren't the best dancers:/ He actually went to Beijing to study Chinese in 2007. He went to Chung Dam High School but later transferred to Seoul Arts High School to work with SHINee's really busy schedule. He graduated in February of 2012, but did not go to the ceremony because of SHINee activities. Taemin also sang a song called "U" for the show "To The Beautiful You". For his acting career he has been on the sitcom "Taehee-Hyegyo-Jihyun!" (태희혜교지현이), and he also played on Moon Night 90 with Key. He was also the voice of Johnny, a white koala hero, on the animated movie "The Outback" along with SNSD's Sunny. 

Thoughts or notes:

I have said this before but I really love SHINee. They are so talented and great looking. I fangirl over them SO BAD!

So about the Hello Baby situation when I said that Minho was the best with him, I meant it. Then came Key. Minho was like the dad and Key was like the mom.. Even though they were all dads. lol Yoogeun liked Key and Minho the best. Especially since they were the best with him. The other dads loved him alot. Especially Jonghyun who always wanted kisses. It was so cute. Taemin was not as good with him as the rest of the members but that would probably be because he was a baby himself back then.. And Onew was so very standoffish. It wasn't because he didn't love the baby. I honestly think that out of all of them, he loved Yoogeun the most. He was just scared to touch him because he knew that babies were fragile and he was scared he would either hurt him or make him cry. Mr. Lee Jinki is really great, huh? Lol so here are some pictures from SHINee's Hello Baby.

Told you that the Jonghyun and Yoogeun kisses were so cute! Seriously makes your heart melt.
