Talking about Kai:

Taemin: My relationship with Kai is really good. Our relationship has been good since the trainee period. Both of us will meet privately but we are worried that we will be misunderstood. The manager also asked if we were dating.

KCR: It is because Taemin looks too good.

Taemin: I should be careful.

KCR: There is no need to be careful. Females will also hold hands etc.

Taemin: We will also have some skinship like putting the arm around the shoulder etc.

DJ: Are آپ close to Exo’s Kai?

T: Yes we are close. We are close to each other since we were trainees. And we meet often, such that even misunderstandings arised. We are the types to do skinship (even) as guys, for example putting our hands over the shoulder… I used to not like it but eventually it became natural.



DJ: Wow I’m envious… and what do آپ do when آپ meet Kai?

T: But after today there will also be chances for the members to engage in personal activites. Actually they weren’t especially envious of me either, because everyone is preparing (for something), it’s not that there has been a specific plan, just that if it’s prepared well before hand, I believe that there will be a chance (to دکھائیں it off) اگلے time.

As maknae in SHINee, are آپ able to do things as آپ wish while in the team?

T: Not that I’m the maknae, it’s mainly (because) of my personality. I don’t like to stand out, I like to follow others.

DJ: Is there anything that آپ were able to try out (because) of the new album?

T: I took off my top. I took 3 weeks to bulk up, not because I wanted to دکھائیں everyone my muscles, but I wanted to showcase my ambition, but I still felt that I didn’t completely showcase everything.

cr: FallinTaem苗苗站



DJ: Since Taemin آپ are doing activities alone now, do آپ have to eat alone too? Without your members.

T: I still like being alone. When I am alone I don’t feel lonely, when I was with my members last time I didn’t do it that I have to eat with my members, we will just do what we have to do well. I think maybe it’s because of this, that’s why our group dynamics is good. We will do our own things, we won’t quarrel یا anything, we are very in-sync.

On his image:

DJ: Your album this time showed off a مزید masculine concept, then آپ have noona fans, how did the react?

T: Actually I dont know their reaction specifically because I don’t have time for the internet. It’s an image that couldn’t be shown off last time, but there are also شائقین who prefer that cute image. But i am getting older سال سے طرف کی year, and slowly that (cute) image is going to fade.

Asked why Taem is so different on and off stage.

T: First of all I’m مزید (of the) shy. On stage I am مزید serious and (I appear) stronger, but in this kind of situation and I am that way too, I will appear to be rude. So (I think) It’s better to be a bit مزید naive. DJ: Taemin has always been polite.

A listener asked Taemin about (the album/song) having a Michael Jackson feel to it.

T: Actually it is not considered my style, but it’s rather similar, I usually like MJ too.

DJ: Actually MJ is a singer that many people like, if Taemin is like that آپ will really have that MJ feel.

T: Actually the song composer is also a diehard پرستار of MJ.

cr: FallinTaem苗苗站



DJ: Taemin released a new album and آپ are very cool, I’m most curious about what your hyungs said. T: I really didn’t expect that, because I feel that we are all guys, and I felt that maybe they would just say something like oh آپ debuted, but I didn’t expect the members to even give me a gift.

cr: FallinTaem苗苗站



DJ: How long are آپ going to be promoting this?

T: Not too long, maybe only about 2 3 weeks. DJ: With sufficient time, Taemin can showcase what he wants to دکھائیں to everyone. (repeated parts omitted)

T: There was a period of time when I was a bit chubby, I also had baby fats on my face, and wearing those fanciful outfits, neon coloured ones, etc., I really looked like Winnie the Pooh.

DJ: So did آپ go on a diet? Will آپ still wear it in the future?

T: I won’t wear it anymore, I really don’t have the confidence to wear them anymore.
