Shinee 12th Anniversary Survey
This year, for Shinee’s 12th anniversary, I ran a survey asking two simple questions: Who is your bias, and what’s the funniest thing he’s ever said?
Now that Shinee Day 2020 is upon us, I’ll be sharing the results! Quite a few people had both the same bias and same funniest quote, so repeats will only be listed one time, but there will be a note of how many times that quote was submitted. Hope you enjoy this stroll down memory lane!

“Spaghetti is far more attractive than you, Key.”
When he tried to give a guest on Hello Counselor a prize but he tripped and fell and dropped the prize on her

The time he accidentally became the posterboy for Listerine for like two weeks

“I don’t always think I look good. Usually, not always.”

(gets bit by a squirrel) “AMAZING!”
The time he was trying to tell Kibum something he wanted to do with him and wrote “next time let’s drink something other than (scribbled out word) grape juice”
His excellent impression of a machine gun on Happy Together
“My lips are always chapped because they’re so lonely.”
“I’ve already eaten gum off of my own face for you. Now you’re telling me you want me to fix my hair? I’ve already lost the dignity and honor I had before, it won’t matter!”
(after rattling off the birthdays of onjongkey, Taemin looked at him expectantly) “Taemin, when were you born? July something?”

The time he took a picture of Kibum crying over a sad book, and Kibum asked him why he did it, and Minho said “so I wouldn’t forget it happened.”
