He invested everything to do what he loves and his work ultimately testifies to why he is an icon today. With Taemin, he doesn’t intentionally try to prove anybody as an artist. Taemin undoubtedly gave eternal ‘Advice’ to hold on while his fans wait for his return. The choreography is on point with powerful and sharp moves. Taemin also pushes boundaries in regard to fashion being creative in every outfit notably the chessboard inspired suit and sporty cropped tee. The music video’s palette is dominant with white and black with a touch of aqua blue making it visually pleasing. The choice of blending soft piano notes and synths gives a unique tune to the track and makes it interesting during the listen. “ Yeah, no matter what anyone says, my way,” begins the song as the singer resonates his unique sound as an artist. ![]() The single brings out a striking persona of Taemin. Being the final comeback before his departure, fans were more curious to know what their favourite artist had to give as an impactful farewell present. ‘Advice’ was one of the most anticipated releases of Taemin following his announcement of military enlistment. On the whole, the music video is visually grand with rich colours and posh settings complementing the artist’s powerful choreography. “ So elegant, a criminal who hurts me/ It’s okay, you soothe me just to torture me again/ Ooh I’m on a leash called you/ It’s painful as much as I can’t breathe but also magnificent,” goes the lyrics with heavy synths and addictive beats making it an irresistible track to skip. Though it torments him, the love is too addictive to avoid. The song sings about being the protagonist voluntarily submitting to an unhealthy relationship. The album name got a huge attention as it read “Never Gonna Dance Again” when Taemin at this time had already established himself as one of the superior performers.Ĭontrary to the album’s name, the artist released another hit single with intricate dance making every artist dance to ‘Criminal’ as a new trend. ‘Criminal’ is one of the latest releases of Taemin in the year of 2020 along with 3rd studio album Never Gonna Dance Again : Act 1. And so, on his birthday, we decided to hand pick five outstanding title tracks of Taemin that brought about a huge impact for K-POP fans as well as K-POP idols. Going down the memory lane, the group’s debut single, ‘Replay’ had no individual lines for Taemin which might be a news to many but what is surprising is him becoming the first member from SHINee to have a solo debut to now, performing some of the powerful tracks as ‘Heaven’, ‘Shadow’ and ‘Soldier’ effortlessly.Īlthough Taemin has proved himself over and over again as part of SHINee and SuperM, Taemin as a solo artist also has one of the best discographies, reinventing art and style in every release. ![]() And, when we think he has reached the maximum, he finds a new way to prove us wrong. His participation as part of SHINee, as a solo artist and with SuperM also gained him the name “the three generation artist” who got to debut thrice in the industry. In other words, the 28-year-old artist is a paragon to other artists and a fortune to art itself. Whether you’re a K-POP fan for a decade or a day, it is inevitable to come across his name, as one of your favourite idols will either be calling Taemin as their role model, covering his songs in multiple stages or fondly playing his songs in one of their V Lives. ![]() He may have started off his idol journey as the youngest member of a prominent second generation boy group but over the years he has grown as one of the most prominent artists in the K-POP industry. He spent almost half of his life as an artist, growing up amongst busy schedules, flashy cameras and fame which must have been overwhelming but for Taemin, those years brewed him as fine as wine. Lee Tae-min debuted in 2008 with SHINee and began his idol career at the age of 14. “There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into sun” – Picasso
