SHINee Taemin’s Agency Releases Statement Following “Malicious” Dating Rumors
SHINee Taemin‘s company has issued an official statement following dating rumors.
Recently, past dating rumors involving Taemin and dancer Noze resurfaced online. An anonymous account on X shared clips of Noze at Taemin’s past concert, seemingly attempting to spark the rumors again.
The account has since been suspended, with fans defending the idol’s ability to date while accusing the account of trying to cause Taemin to receive hate.
Taemin's private life is none of your business, he can date whoever he wants, so leave him alone. Your entire profile is dedicated to this mans relationship, you need professional help. And it's really messed up that you try and bring hate towards Taemin from delusional fans like… https://t.co/LqKOTHoN3t

Planting a dating rumor and hoping for his downfall when he’s 31 years old and the rumor has been circulating for a year … we’re all acquainted with it. We don’t care. What a jobless clown.

This is insanity to have an entire twitter account dedicated to blasting Noze for potentially being Taemin’s girlfriend. He is 31 years old not a child. Mind your business… if nothing is public it’s because they have nothing they feel comfortable sharing. Weirdo behavior. https://t.co/4qHdSZyLlk
