SHINee’s Minho Captured Having An Emotional Moment During An Encore Stage

Shawols immediately knew what the touching moment meant. 💚

SHINee recently celebrated their 15th anniversary and made their long-awaited comeback with their eighth full-length studio album, HARD.

To celebrate, the group opened a 15th anniversary pop-up store and held a fan meeting for the special occasion.

Throughout their celebrations and “HARD” promotions, they’ve consistently honored fellow member Jonghyun, who passed away on December 18, 2017.

Jonghyun was heartwarmingly included in promotional materials for the group’s eighth album, which included references to his solo album, Base.

The members also sweetly remembered Jonghyun while looking through their “The Moment Of Shine” perfume collection at their pop-up store, which included scent 525 for Jonghyun.

Minho and Onew shared that they were reminded of Jonghyun while Minho tried out his 525 scent.

While walking through the pop-up, mischievous maknae Taemin also hilariously “forged” Jonghyun’s autograph, which he’s done before.

During the members’ Roadtrip Comeback Show, Taemin also honored Jonghyun by beautifully covering his song “End Of A Day” while Key and Minho proudly looked on.

After SHINee’s recent music show win for their “HARD” goodbye stage on SBS‘s Inkigayo, which marked the group’s 69th music show win overall, Minho was captured having an emotional moment.

As the group performed their encore stage, Minho turned around and held the trophy up toward the sky.

Shawols immediately knew that the touching gesture was Minho proudly showing the trophy to Jonghyun, celebrating the win together.

Shawols also noticed sweet tributes to Jonghyun included in the group’s recent music. Check out more on that in the article below:
