-pop royalty serves up serious feels as SHINee’s main dancer brings his solo magic to Chinese fans
Hold onto your bias lists, people – because TAEMIN just reminded everyone why he’s been dubbed the “original prince” of K-pop! The SHINee sensation absolutely KILLED IT at his solo fan meeting “CLASS-MATE” in Hangzhou, China on August 23rd, and honestly? We’re still not over it.
THE TEA IS PIPING HOT ☕
This wasn’t just any ordinary fan meet – this was Taemin’s FIRST-EVER solo fan meeting in China, and boy did he come prepared! Our multilingual king stepped up to the mic speaking fluent Mandarin (we love a polyglot icon), sending the crowd into absolute chaos before he even started performing.
The 31-year-old idol served looks, served vocals, AND served personality as he spilled behind-the-scenes tea about his solo albums, gushed over Hangzhou’s local cuisine, and even shared never-before-seen personal photos. Talk about fan service royalty!
EMOTIONAL DAMAGE: THE GOOD KIND 💔
But here’s where it gets REALLY emotional – fans had prepared a special video montage, and one particular message hit Taemin RIGHT in the feels: “Just being by your side, you are my youth.”
Cue the waterworks! Taemin’s response? “I’m so grateful. I want to see you all more often.”
Sir, please! Our hearts can only take so much!
WHAT’S NEXT FOR THE PRINCE?
Before you start mourning the end of this Chinese adventure, Taemin’s got MORE heat coming your way! He’s about to embark on an 11-show Japanese arena tour hitting five cities from September 13-15, starting in Kanagawa and blazing through Saga, Shizuoka, Chiba, and Hyogo.
This man really said “2024 is MY year” and we’re absolutely here for it!
Are you ready for Taemin’s world domination? Because ready or not, the original K-pop prince is coming for EVERYONE!
