i've been a shawol for a decade now, but one kibum quote always stuck with me
"My dream isn't to become the best, it's to be someone who I'm not ashamed to be."
shinee just got back from a concert in japan and proceeded to prepare for today's mma in korea, then they have to go back to japan for the 7th??? and taemin has to prepare for his concert on the 16th-17th, then they need to prepare for gayo daejun on the 25th???
shinee rly ruined me for other groups tbh,, like sure i'd listen to some songs but i couldn't dive into the group,, i'd just find myself comparing them to shinee or just miss shinee in the end
kibum's really out here doing the most with shinee's recent cb and concert, 2 variety shows, preparing for another solo cb, various overseas lineups, and now another variety show 😭
i couldn't care less abt kwangya and how sm is trying to impose it but splicing a video just to not have any proof of an artist explicitly saying that their concept isn't a part of kwangya, just so you could possibly take credit for the concept is fucking low and pathetic
COMMENT
Everyone has their own 'office' where they experience challenging moments, joys, loneliness, and sadness. I sincerely hope you don't face any moments that would make you question your worth and values.
kibum is the sweetest thing ever 🥺🩷🫂
oh god that one kibum bubble was him asking us to tell minho to talk to kibum the way he talked to the kids 😭 it's like that time when he wanted a pat from minho too when minho was patting a pony
on a completely different note, it's disheartening to see the whole SM mess is being diminished to fanwars and petty takes when there's actually a lot at stake especially for the staffs, and the artists themselves, like none of them deserve any of these
i better not see other shawols invalidating other shawols concerns, worry, and anxiety, because it's all entirely valid and probably does not have anything to do with their trust regarding SHINee
i just love how SHINee just focuses on bettering themselves and not comparing themselves to others, how they just strive to make their current fans enjoy their music while also welcoming anyone who's there to join the fandom <333
