#ultimate taemint

[smtown-tourist]

There being a super rare blue moon tonight, August 19th, isn’t a coincidence. That’s just our Jjong showing up to support Taemin’s comeback 🌕💎

[up10tion-in-2025]

i think I have chosen the worst possible time to get into up10 but would you mind telling my your favorite of their songs and maybe something about each member? only if you want to ofc!

px101 era was worse

I would love to tell you about the up10 men!!! Literally you did not ask for a full on 5 page guide but im making it anyway!!

SO. YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT UP10TION? (a guide)

Members (age order):

Kuhn (leader/rapper) - gives off dad energy. Has a very attractive singing voice!! Listen to some CoolFM karaoke to hear him sing!

Jinhoo (leader/vocal) - has pretty lips! Takes on team mom position. TOP media put him on hiatus on April 7, 2020 and then sent him to the armed forces, he has not been seen or mentioned since. TOP media will not tell us where he is. I miss him.

UPDATE: Jinhoo signs of life. He has a personal Instagram.

Kogyeol/Ian (vocal) - gives off church crush/princely vibes. Has an interior design business for some reason??

Jinhyuk (high-tone rapper) - furry. weeb. gamer. Likes skinship a lot. He's doing solo stuff ever since px101...it's okay. He's not a very good vocalist 😭 Top Media put him back in the group NOW.

Bitto (low-tone rapper/main dancer) - cute. He seems quiet in interviews but he can be VERY chaotic. The master of girl group choreo + ultimate fanboy.

Wooseok (vocal/visual) - just a guy. He is kind of a quiet troublemaker type, and has a devilish streak. He has been doing solo stuff since px101. I like his solo stuff. But Top Media PLEASE PUT HIM BACK.

Sunyoul (vocal) - he has a WIDE vocal range. Well known for performing on masked singer and having everyone think he was a girl. Has done boy/girl duets by himself. Appears sweet but...he will not hesitate if you annoy him. Other mom figure.

Gyujin (lead dancer/vocal) - eyebrows!! He is babygirl and poses as such in pictures...very silly guy. They never give him lines and always try to cover him up in big coats. :(

Hwanhee (vocal) - LOUD. I CANNOT EMPHASIZE HOW LOUD HE IS. Often compared to Baekhyun in terms of looks and voice. Whiney and loveable. In Boys Planet rn

Xiao/Dongyeol (lead dancer/vocal) - #1 taemint. Hanse from VICTON's bestie. Mischevious and attached to hwanhee. In Boys Planet rn.

SHINee scenario: s/o attending their event despite being sick and hiding it because they want to support them

(would it be possible to request a scenario to shinee’s s/o attending their event despite being sick and hiding it because you wanted to support them?) 

Requested by anon

Onew:

When your boyfriend was going to hold his first solo comeback showcase, you really wouldn’t miss it for the world. In some cruel turn of events, you caught a flu just a few days prior to it and was more or less ordered to not leave your house by your worried boyfriend. 

However, you wouldn’t listen to him this time. Since you wanted to be there and support him no matter what. 

You didn’t tell him at first, just so he wouldn’t try and stop you, and enjoyed the showcase from your pre-booked seat in the audience, where the rest of his close friends and loved ones would also be seated. 

Afterwards, you were able to go backstage to see him and congratulate him in person. The fact that you came to support him despite being sick wouldn’t really surprise him but he would definitely sigh and feel worried. 

“I told you to stay in y/n.” he said and hugged you tightly before checking your fever and then forcing you to sit down on a nearby seat.

It would make you pout and tell him you were ‘fine’ but he didn’t buy your lie this time. 

After finishing up he would bring you back home himself and stay with you for the next few days just to make sure you wouldn’t get any more silly ideas and make your condition worse. 

Jonghyun:

Since the start of your relationship you had always supported each other, so when you got sick prior to his concert, you couldn’t let it get in the way of that. 

Even if Jonghyun told you to stay home this time around, you still went and asked his staff not to tell him. You then watched the concert from the side of the stage and wore all black to blend in, along with a mask and cap.

When the concert was over Jonghyun sent a text to tell you how it went and also to ask how you were holding up. 

While waiting for your response he circled the backstage area to thank all the staff members for doing such a good job. He then happened to walk by someone familiar and quickly realized it was you, since your attempted disguise wouldn’t really fool him. 

You were sitting down, typing a text, so you didn’t notice him at first, even if he decided to stand right in front of you with his arms crossed neatly across his chest. 

When you ultimately put your phone away, raised your head and locked eyes with him, he would quickly raise an eyebrow in question and await your explanation. 

The fact that you were caught red-handed by him made you pout and also feel a bit embarrassed. 

“Please don’t be mad?”

He would just sigh at those words, since he honestly couldn’t be mad at you. Instead, he would sit down next to you, wrap you in a hug and then scold you for not listening to him when he was just looking out for you.

Key:

Key was going to hold a showcase together with the other SHINee members, which was an event you had been looking forward to for months. So, when you happened to get sick the same day it was scheduled to take place, it would definitely put you in a sour mood. 

Key strictly forbade you to attend and came to your apartment in the morning to personally tuck you into bed and remind you not to get any crazy ideas or go against his words. 

Sometimes he honestly knew you too well, which meant it wasn’t easy to get anything past him. 

You promised him you wouldn’t leave your bed for the whole night but would still end up doing so, as you attended the event without telling him. 

It was a really fun night and despite being sick you enjoyed it a lot. All of them did really well, as always, and you felt especially proud of your boyfriend. 

When it was over you quickly returned to your apartment and tucked yourself back into bed, since you had a feeling Key was going to come by to check on you. He did just that, later at night, and wouldn’t look too happy. 

You played innocent at first but it quickly became apparent that he knew you had attended and he would then scold you a lot.

Minho:

Your boyfriend was sweet and caring and it was something you were usually very fond of. However, you wouldn’t be when you happened to fall sick around the time he had a comeback and he wouldn’t let you attend any of his events to support him. 

“I’m not that sick.” you argued but it wouldn’t change his mind. He still told you to stay home and rest and that he would text you with updates if you were curious. 

It made you sigh. Although he was your boyfriend, you were also a fan of his and wanted to support him like everyone else. The fact that you couldn’t would really frustrate you a lot. 

At first you listened to his words and stayed in the comfort of your home while waiting for his updates. However, it wouldn’t feel enough so you ultimately decided to go against his wishes and attend his event anyway. 

You did so in secret but somehow, he still found out about it because after it was over you received a long text from him, where he essentially scolded you and expressed concern for your health. 

It would make you sigh since you would feel bad and then go backstage to find him and reassure him that you were fine. 

He wouldn’t feel at ease with only your words and then made it his mission to take care of you for the following days until he could see with his own eyes that you were actually fine again.

Taemin:

When you realized that you were on the verge of getting sick, you tried your best to hide it from Taemin, since he was going to hold a concert and you didn’t want to miss it. 

Whenever he had a concert or showcase in Seoul, you would always attend as the loyal Taemint you were. You didn’t want this to be an exception, especially not because of a stupid flu. 

Thankfully, your boyfriend didn’t notice your condition at first and you were able to attend the concert as planned. It was fun and you cheered on him the best you could, even if you felt your body getting continuously weaker throughout the night. 

When you met him after the concert he quickly noticed that something was off and you ultimately told him about feeling sick prior to it. 

“You’re stupid y/n.” he scolded you with a sigh, since he feared your condition was going to get worse because of your decision to support him. “You might get even more sick because of this, you know that right?”

“It will still be worth it.” you said and smiled at him, in hopes that it would cheer him up but it wouldn’t. You then felt a bit bad and assured him that you would be careful from now on and not do anything but rest until the flu had passed.

Those words would definitely sound a lot better to him and he would make sure you stuck by them.

I'm a hardcore Taemint even unknowingly...

Today is one of the best days of the year, the day that Taeminnie was born!!! Coincidentally, today was also the day that I wore his bright yellow shirt from SHINee's first world concert. Apparently, even if the rest of me doesn't notice, my brain is always tuned in to my boy.

[tae-kae]

this man needs to NOT

[kibomz]

i think someone broke a mutual with me bc i said something bad about a bias of theirs and i mean i can’t even be mad bc i absolutely would break a mutual with one of u for that same reason lmfaooo but i mean i wouldn’t have apologized for whatever it was that i said so i geuess they did what they had to do if that Is the real reason

[shineethinks]

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG Can you do one about OT4 supporting TaeBaby with his first solo concert ? TT TT TT TT So emo as it is but since I love death I need this lol ^^

i was waiting for the concert to be a little closer to get to this one! 

onew:

told taemin that under N O circumstance would he be attending his concert 

he’s serious

he’s serious taemin 

taemin doesn’t believe him largely bc he personally gave him the ticket as well as to the rest of shinee????? (taemin: stop this gag) 

backstage: brought a cutout of taemin’s head that’s the size of half a human and makes taemin take multiple pictures with it 

honestly such a proud dad 

“do well okay???? don’t use all your energy all at once!!! you’re going to do so great omg” 

waving his arm so hard it looks like he’s doing the propeller part from everybody but he just wants senpai to notice him 

jonghyun:

when he first sees taemin all made up and in costume, he’s all like “WHOA IS THAT TAEMIN????? LEE TAEMIN?????? LEE TAEMIN OF SHINEE???? SO NICE TO SEE YOU SUNBAE-NIM WE CAME TO SUPPORT YOU” 

sHOOK when taeminnie takes off his shirt

WHEN DID HE GET SO RIPPED 

opens his instagram and tries to compare if that’s how he looked during x-inspiration 

wearing taemin’s jacket that he won at weekly idol for being taemin’s #1 fan 

@ all the taemints: let it be known, he is the ultimate taemint ok??

screaming oppa a lot on the top of his lungs 

key:

knows all the fanchants bc research 

waving around two lightsticks 

LEE TAEMIN, LEE TAEMIN, LEE TAEMIN 

when they went to see him before the concert, he personally checked what taebaebae was going to wear and gave his approval

smoothes his hair down and makes sure tae has like 5 water bottles lined up for easy access after he finishes a performance 

@ the shirt off part: *whispers* taeman

before concert: posts a picture of taemin from replay era with the caption “this kid is having a solo concert??? this child that i fed and ironed his uniform for?? aigoo you grew up a lot maknae. do well tonight, don’t be scared bc hyungs aren’t up there with you, also get an instagram already……………….”  

minho:

completely loaded with taemin merch 

taemin’s merch sold out in like 4 mins 

you know why?

choi minho

wearing a shirt (that he got made for this very occasion) of taemin’s face 

super proud of it and super gleeful that taemin’s embarassed af by all his taemin swag 

was going to write taemin on his forehead with eyeliner but key restrained him 

brought a package of ramen and offers to cook it for him 

and also takayaki 

and banana milk 

and on all of them are lil post-it notes of encouragement 

taemin:

during the first talk, peers into the crowd 

“shinee’s here today!!!! HI HYUNGS”

waving

waving in the wrong direction 

realized the people he’s waving to is not them mid-wave but he’s already committed and he’s seeing this wave through (jong: aigoo we even told him what section we were sitting in………….) 

the first talk is the hardest bc he’s so used to having someone(four) up there with him to banter with and the stage is so big without ot4 

the subsequent talks are a bit easier but he sometimes trips over his words and then he does that thing with his hands and it’s adorable af 

swears that he can hear shinee (especially minho) cheering and it makes him smile a lot 

tears up bc he’s touched by the fans, his hyungs, and wow this is how it feels to be up on this stage

feels invincible 

ot5 :

bought a standing wreath made up of blue roses that says “shinee is taeminnie’s fanclub ♡” 

[sweetmissie]

SHINee Lucifer: "This guy got long hair, gonna stan HIM!"
