Lee Taemin: "Dancing machine" debuted 4 times in 11 years and the road to becoming a famous solo artist in Asia

For trainees who are considered "rare and hard to find" like Taemin, the journey of "turning around" in Kbiz to achieve success today makes everyone who knows about it admire.

Taemin is a talented artist from SM Entertainment, he is also known as Kpop's top "dancing machine". Taemin debuted as a Kpop idol at an extremely young age: 15 years old. Up to now, after more than 11 years of operation, the male idol has debuted 4 times, accidentally falling into 3 different generations of the Kpop music industry.

Because of the above, Taemin is considered the "idol of idols", constantly "reinventing" himself and achieving countless great achievements regardless of group and solo activities. Taemin is truly a talented idol with diverse transformations through each debut.

Taemin officially debuted to fans on May 25, 2008 as the youngest member of SHINee - SM's boygroup. The group quickly achieved impressive success with the hit "Replay" and owned the famous national song "Ring Ding Dong". Through his time working with SHINee, he has proven himself to be a main dancer with top charisma and skills in Kpop. SHINee is considered the ending group for the 2nd generation of Kpop, along with Super Junior, SNSD, 2PM.

Since joining SHINee, Taemin has not gone a day without practicing. He said: "Training hard is not to convince others, but to achieve results for yourself." Besides the fact that he is handsome and sexy on stage, fans also like him for his perseverance, never giving up when faced with difficulties.

In 2010, Taemin and SHINee returned twice with the songs Lucifer and Hello. However, the year they were really busy was 2011. This was the time when the 5 members debuted in Japan through the Japanese version of the single Replay, in addition they also released the singles Juliette, Lucifer and the album The First.

In 2012, Taemin and his teammates returned to Korea to promote their 4th Korean mini mini titled Sherlock and released 3 single albums. In 2013, he and SHINee made a comeback with the song Dream Girl, Why So Serious, Everybody in Korea. In Japan, they are equally busy releasing 3 Japanese songs and the full album Boys Meet U.

After a while after his debut, the male idol continued to be trusted by Lee Soo Man to "choose his face to send gold" into YOUNIQUE - a sub-unit combining SM idols including: Taemin, Eunhyuk and Henry ( Super Junior-M), Kai and Luhan ( EXO), Hyoyeon (SNSD). Even though it's just a temporary small group, Taemin and the other members have become more famous than expected. This sub-unit brings together all of SM's famous "dance machines", creating a special impression with Maxstep.

However, the debut event as a solo singer may truly be a big milestone in Taemin's career. SHINee's youngest member made his solo debut with the mini album ACE and the title song Danger on August 13, 2014. Solo activities are really a good opportunity for Taemin to fully express his talents in singing, dancing and performing. His debut fell at the time when the 3rd generation of Kpop was formed. Taemin gradually became a prominent solo idol with many impressive hits, typically Move.

Taking advantage of the victory, Taemin did not rest. With his reputation and efforts at that time, the male singer quickly became the only representative of SHINee to appear in the SuperM lineup - the "new average" group. old wine" by SM. In addition to Taemin, the group also includes Baekhyun, Kai (EXO); Taeyong, Mark, Ten, Lucas (NCT). SuperM targets the American market, considered a "huge rookie" starting the 4th generation of Kpop.

Although still growing since debuting with SHINee. Taemin chose to break away from his maknae image and become a solo musician as well as part of SuperM, a group famous around the world. The male idol's story is like something out of a book for teenagers.

"When I look back on my life, I think it's kind of interesting. I joined the company when I was 13 years old and I'm 28 this year. I've lived almost half of my life as a singer and when I thought, ' I've been doing this for quite a while', I can feel that time has really passed. I think I'm a greedy person. Thanks to my greed and desire, I'm able to eyes as a member of SHINee and have the opportunity to become a solo artist," Taemin said.

Debuting under many different "names", Taemin shared many interesting things surrounding the new music product. He also humorously revealed the differences when working with SHINee, SuperM and when working solo.

Accordingly, the male idol said that for himself, the most clearly visible difference will definitely be the position and role when working with each group and solo. He said: "For example, when I'm solo, I have to work alone with the staff, pay attention to everyone and contribute a lot of ideas to everyone. But when working with SHINee, I rely on them a lot. Besides, I'm the youngest, so I'll follow everyone's opinion."

"It's also very interesting because we've been together for a long time so we feel comfortable like family. And when we work with SuperM, even though we're not the eldest, we're still in the line. Actually, I haven't done the role of an older brother well, so I often think and try to do that role well," the male idol added.

Looking at Taemin's huge musical "fortune" over the past 11 years, we can see how enthusiastic and hardworking he is. He is also an icon because he always challenges himself through countless different music styles and concepts.

Although he has been active since his debut, Taemin has shown no signs of slowing down. After the remaining 3 members of SHINee completed their military service, the group confirmed their comeback in early 2021. This shows that this continues to be a busy journey for the male idol.
