For this summer, let us experience charismatic idol SHINee's limitless youthfulness! Korean Contemporary Popular Idol Group SHINee, visited Taiwan to participate 【SMTown LIVE WORLD TOUR Ⅲ in TAIWAN】concert previously. For this weekend, they have once again visited Taiwan to meet with their fans. All exclusive notice will be broadcasted on 「I Just want to Listen to Music - Hit Fm Live Radio」! During HIT FM Live Radio 「HIT DJ」 broadcasted at 5PM yesterday (6/17-Sun), SHINee appeared on the radio for 1 hour to conduct an interview with DJ Ah Juan. The climax of the program was (the segment) where SHINee made Call-outs to 3 lucky listeners out of the 4000 over voicemails (received). Even though Minho is unable to attend (this radio show) due to his work, Onew, Taemin, Jonghyun and Key experienced their first call-out to the audience; showcased good teamwork to bring an hour of joy to everyone. "(We) are happy that (we) are able to have a closer interaction with our fans. We hope there will will be more opportunities for us to participate in such programs"!
SHINee recorded the program in a relaxed/comfortable manner. Taemin and Key danced and moved to the music even though it was a Live Recording Show. Jonghyun, Taemin and Key kept joking around by playing thumb-fights! Jonghyun's eyes were not in good condition, so whenever there was a break during interviews, he kept rubbing his eyes - He will even remove his contact lens and hold onto them with his mouth before placing back on. Because of this "Urgent Summer Notice", HitFM labelled SHINee as 「hito K POPStar」 - (HitFM) will be perpetually promoting/intoducing SHINee's new Korean Mini-Album "Sherlock" on air in Mandarin from 6/18 - 6/22; the exclusive interview 「hito Special」 will also be broadcasted during 6/25 -6/29 (Monday to Friday 7-9PM). We welcome SHINee World to listen during these time slots.
In addition, even though Korea has (their own version of) Duanwu / Dumpling / Dragon Boat festival (S/N : Chuseok Festival for Korea), they do not practice the Chinese Tradition of eating dumplings as well as hanging fragrant bags. Hence HitFM has specially prepared dumplings for SHINee, (to) wish them good sales for their new album "Sherlock" as well as the best of luck in everything they do. Moreover Hitfm has given them a packet of fragrant bag each to ward off illnesses and wish (them to be able to receive) constant good luck. "When in Rome, do as the Romans do" - When they were having their photos taken, SHINee adhered to Taiwanese culture. When the Cameraman shouted 「西瓜甜不甜」 "Is the watermelon sweet?" (S/N : Taiwanese version of "Say Cheese!" when taking photos), the four of them shouted "Sweet!" - really amicable/ friendly!
During the Call-Out session, fans asked "For the new dormitory arrangement, was there any interesting events that happened between roommates?" Jonghyun said "I am sharing a room with Taemin together, not really sure if anyone snores. Minho, Onew and Key has in their own individual rooms. Most of our time is spent in the living room to watch TV and play video games.". Other questions posed by fans are "What superpower do you desire the most?" Onew "I wish I can absorb information really fast" Key "Even though I am afraid of heights, but I wish I can fly like Superman in the air. I just personally feel that being able to fly is fun" Jonghyun "If I can teleport, I can perform in various venues really quickly" Taemin " I hope I know what the other person is thinking, because I would want to know their secrets" DJ Ah Juan then asked him "What if the fan says she likes Taemin but she is thinking of Onew in her heart?" Witty Taemin then replied "I will make sure that she will pick me, before I will ask". Fans also asked SHINee "What would you like to be if you are not celebrities?" Taemin expressed that he want to live the life of a University Student, to participate in many social groups; Key plans to migrate to England for overseas studies and learn to be a Rocker. Onew and Jonghyun probably misunderstood the question as "What will you be doing in Korea at this time?" Their respective answers were "I will be eating rice right now" and "I will shop around Myeongdong with my friends" (S/N : I think it was an Onew sangtae reply but the DJ did not realise it ^^ and Jonghyun was probably saying that he would be living an ordinary life to hang out with his friends at Myeongdong.).
The DJ also asked the 4 of them "Taiwan is currently experiencing earthquake/aftershocks. How do you all feel about it?" Taemin gave a funny/interesting response "As we have experienced it (earthquakes) in Japan before, I am actually a little happy/excited experiencing it again in Taipei! Reason being that the hotel we are staying is a really tall (building), (i think) it is really fun to be swaying around" The rest of the 3 members expressed that they were too fatigue after work and have fallen asleep without feeling anything.
Coming to Taiwan often, SHINee's Chinese vocabulary has increased. Taemin said that "I still remember the Chinese I learnt during my Trainee days, just that I don't have time (now) to study more." Other than being able to introduce themselves (in Chinese), Key who is proficient with food names named a few : Bubble Milk Tea, Pearls (Tapioca Ball), Beef Noodles, Steamed Meat Dumplings (Xiao Long Bao). Taemin even revealed that he is able to eat 3 steamers of Steamed meat dumplings! As one of the staff members has undergone plastic surgery, Key specially learnt (the phrase) "He has undergone plastic surgery" in Chinese; and even spoke it in 3 other languages - Korean, Japanese and English - showcasing his gift for languages. SHINee has been Shining across the whole world, they have many die-hard fans all around the world supporting them enthusiastically and SHINee feels that Taiwanese fans are extremely enthusiastic/ supportive. They even said that will visit Taiwan frequently if there are opportunities. In addition they revealed that they would want to collaborate with Asia's Dancing King Show Luo. Key explained "Because we have attended his TV Program in the past and even performed his songs before so we are more familiar with him." At the end, SHINee expressed that thy are quite happy to be able to attend Hit FM to interact with fans; and anticipate that there will be other opportunities for them to attend Hit FM again.
