The fact that jonghyun is mine, as well as tons of others, role model says a lot about that man. He managed to make huge impacts on millions while alive and he’s still continuing doing so even if he can’t be here physically. We love an icon
Prettiest smiles + most handsome faces + most beautiful voices + sweetest personalities + best dancers + most talented all around = SHINee
cr: @DessireDolce ~ lol, I’m not the least bit overly SHINee biased…
Yknow i feel like appreciating jonghyun rn cuz he deserves it
Jonghyun was everything you could wish for in an idol and more. Beyond his talent, no one could talk to him without talking about what a good person he was. He was just that loveable and kind. Jonghyun was always outspoken about mental health, lgbtq+ rights, and inequality. He was often bashed in the industry for speaking out about all those things, yet he did it anyways. He was always the first one to cry, but he was also the first one to laugh. He poured his heart and soul into his music. He suffered from insomnia and yet he always put on a show with full energy. He had a voice that could bring you to tears just by listening to it. His #1 goal was always to be kind and gentle to his fans, to be their friend. And he sure as hell did a good job

mid year round up! it has been just over six months since the release of poet | artist, and as many are aware, the sales have been very impressive, and heartwarming given that all of the proceeds go toward a good cause. as of right now the album is seated just above 100k sales on hanteo, and just over 192k on gaon. it is currently in the top ten best selling albums of the year on gaon and top fifteen on hanteo, as well as being the best selling solo release of the year on gaon thus far. taking these facts into account: the album has a very good chance at securing a few year end award show wins, namely a bonsang through the golden disc awards. seeing that the golden disc awards relies 80% on physical sales (based on gaon chart results) it is important to continue spreading word on the album so sales will keep on rising as the year goes on. this, of course, is not just about winning awards. it’s also about contributing more money to the cause that jonghyun’s mother has been working on. all of the below listed are accredited shops, meaning that they are officially recognized by hanteo and gaon. please continue to spread word on the album, and consider ordering a copy (or encouraging those who can afford to order a copy) if you have not already, even if it means buying alongside the story of light (in which you can find order information for here). 💿 korean 💿 11st (international shipping) aladin (international shipping) apple music bandi lunis cooltrack gmarket hottracks kyobobook leesmusic synnara (international shipping) yes24 💿 international 💿 catchopcd choice music la korea star plaza kpopmart kpopplus kpoptown ktown4u music korea music plaza (also found on ebay) yesasia (with poster)
At an event to celebrate the release of the second album of their sixth studio album "The Story of Light" on June 11, the members of SHINee opened up about the secret to staying together for 10 years, as well as where they hope to be in the next 10 years.
The members were asked how they felt about reaching their 10th anniversary and Taemin replied, “I feel proud. We’ve spent 10 years with each other, which is almost as long as half of my life. At first, there were times when we fought because we had our differences, but now, we don’t have to say a word to understand each other. I want to proudly show everyone that closeness we have.”
Minho added, “Though we each have our unique personality, we always try to understand and respect each other. Once we started doing that, we became even closer and got to know each other much better.” He continued to say, “As time passed, we became closer, and when we’re by ourselves, it feels lonely and boring. When we’re together, it’s so much fun and we feel so happy. I think that’s the secret to us staying together for 10 years.”
Key explained that they decided to release three albums to celebrate their 10th anniversary milestone and said, “We want to show people that SHINee is here, and we’re working hard and doing well. We want to show them that we’re just fine, just the way we’ve always been.”
The members all agreed that they want to still be together as SHINee for the next 10 years as well. Sharing that they had renewed their contracts with SM Entertainment, Minho said, “We want to still be performing as SHINee ten years from now, and to do that, we have a lot to study and learn.” Onew added, “One thing that has never changed for me is my desire for SHINee to keep going. I just wish for us and the people watching us to be happy.”
SHINee released their “The Story of Light EP.2” album on June 11 with the title track “I Want You.” Check out the music video if you haven’t already!
Jonghyun + ‘Oh Boy!’
missing jonghyun comes in different forms. sometimes it’s soft, subtle things like “jonghyun would love that song/book/shirt”. sometimes i see something that reminds me of him, like roses, cute dogs that i’d want him to see, happy people, and all the things that make you feel warm from the inside. jonghyun is in every happy thing i see. sometimes it’s listening to his radio auditions while it’s raining, with eyes closed because even if i can’t understand him (though by now i know most of the auditions by heart), his voice is soothing and i can imagine that he’s still there and i can almost reach out to him.
but sometimes it’s in pain, sharp and scary, and i find myself awake at three am, crying my heart out because i just thought that jonghyun will never see the sunrise again, he will never feel its warmth on his skin. he will never smile at me, i will never tell him how proud of him i am and that he’s the only reason i’ve made it so far. and it hurts, it hurts because i can’t do anything about it.
missing jonghyun is never obvious, but it’s always there, like tingling under my skin. sometimes it’s happy, a lot of times it hurts, but i still love him more and more with each day and i will always talk about him with a smile
ok universe, i’m ready to feel good things. make me feel good things.
whenever i post this it works reblog if u want to feel good things & the universe will bring u something sweet
「SHINee WORLD THE BEST 2018～FROM NOW ON～ in TOKYO DOME」Teaser
[soompi] shinee talks emotionally about moving forward as a group after jonghyun’s passing
source: soompi
trigger warning: death, grieving, mental health
shinee appeared as guests on mbc’s radio star, and they shared their thoughts on promoting as a group following the passing of member jonghyun last december. in the may 30 episode, mc yoon jong shin said to shinee, “there recently was a sad incident. while promoting, you became four members. i heard that you hesitated about appearing on ‘radio star.‘” minho said, “we worried about doing shows in general. there are parts of variety shows where you have to do it in a fun way, so i wondered if this was the right thing to do. i also wondered if it was okay to release an album and to promote. as time gradually passed, we recollected ourselves and talked about the future, and i think our emotions settled down.” taemin explained, “the incident happened at a point when my personality was changing [to be more outgoing]. i became ambitious about my solo activities, and it was right at that point when i realized that my members are really great.” he became teared up as he talked, and then said he wouldn’t be able to continue. when onew was asked about how it was said that he’d received counseling because he wasn’t able to cry, onew replied, “it was like that at first. i thought that i shouldn’t cry.” he then became tearful, and the hosts told him that he didn’t need to talk about anything that brought up sad thoughts, so onew nodded and apologized. key said, “after it happened, i received counseling and treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder. there’s a reason why we decided to hold the concert in japan and appear on radio star. we couldn’t see that as a cause of our collapse, and although the expression ‘overcoming’ isn’t right either, we wanted to acknowledge it and in order for us to promote, we thought that it should be something we address first instead of someone else talking about it.” he continued, “after it first happened, it was so hard when i went out and people asked, ‘are you okay?’ so i wrote on my social media account asking people to treat me as they normally do so that i could return to my normal life.” when asked about their concert in japan, key said, “we held a tokyo dome concert for [jonghyun] hyung and for the fans. we wanted to send him off together to a good place while missing him.” he explained that the venue had been booked a year earlier for all five members. “i never imagined that there would bad things said about that,” he went on to say. “there were comments posted too. they said that we were using a sad event as marketing. i hated hearing that so much.” taemin said, “i always sought to show something good for others, but i now want to do it for us. we worked together for so long and the result was that if we didn’t overcome this then our members would separate, and we didn’t want that, so we decided we had to try to overcome it. it was the same with the album.” minho added, “i don’t think that everything will be okay. but when we perform or when our music plays, i think we’ll be able to have strength and enjoy it while doing well if you think that it’s not just the four of us, but all of us doing it together. we couldn’t not talk about it on today’s broadcast, but there are some parts that we wanted to address, like key said. it’s not that everything is okay, but we’re going to work hard while promoting, and we hope you’ll look kindly on us.” shinee released their mini album, the story of light - ep. 1, and mv for title track “good evening” on may 28.
sadness =/= remembrance
you don’t have to be sad to remember jonghyun
if you feel sad, there’s nothing wrong with that. of course not. there’s a whole lot to be sad about, and it’s perfectly normal.
but please don’t confuse any emotion with remembrance. remembering someone is just that: thinking of them.
you can think of jonghyun when you’re sad and when you’re happy. when you’re feeling silly or bored. when you’re sentimental, or jealous, or embarrassed, or full of love. when someone does something and it reminds you of that thing jjong used to do and damn wasn’t that really funny?
so please don’t feel like you need to be sad to remember him.
i have sad moments, but i also have some happy ones. a lot of the time they take place within minutes of each other. i’m like a yo-yo, but it’s how i’m dealing with it so it’s okay. and i really cherish the moments where i’m happy, because i want to be able to watch a video of jonghyun smiling and be able to smile back. that’s the future i’m trying to work toward for myself.
i don’t think he’d want to be a shackle holding you to one specific emotion. please please please don’t feel like you need to force yourself into feeling a specific way to be respectful of him. i’m seeing too many people who feel guilty on my dash.
as always, take care of yourself and be kind to each other, and we’ll muddle on through somehow. <3
