Lee Tae-min (Korean: 이태민; born July 18, 1993), better known mononymously as Taemin, is a South Korean singer and actor. He debuted as a member of the South Korean boy band Shinee in May 2008 and the supergroup SuperM in 2019, both under SM Entertainment, and has subsequently been labeled by media outlets as the "Idol's Idol" due to the large number of idols citing him as an inspiration.[1][2] As an actor, Taemin's first role was as Junsu in the 2009 MBC comedy Hilarious Housewives.

Taemin debuted as a soloist in 2014 with the release of his first extended play (EP), Ace. It peaked at number one on the South Korean Gaon Album Chart, and its lead single "Danger" reached number five on the Gaon Digital Chart. His first studio album, Press It (2016), also charted at number one on the Gaon Album Chart. Taemin made his solo debut in Japan in July 2016 with the release of his second EP, Sayonara Hitori. His third EP, Flame of Love, was released a year later.

In October 2017, Taemin released his second Korean studio album, Move, and the title track gained attention for its distinctive choreography. In 2018, Taemin released his first Japanese studio album, Taemin, and embarked on his first Japanese tour, named Sirius. His third Korean studio album, Never Gonna Dance Again (2020), led by singles "Criminal" and "Idea", was widely recognized by critics as one of the best K-pop releases of the year. He followed this with the EPs Advice (2021), Guilty (2023) and Eternal (2024).

Main article: Shinee

Lee Tae-min was born on July 18, 1993 in Seoul.[3][4] He joined SM Entertainment as a trainee with talent in singing and dancing and was chosen to debut as a member of Shinee in 2008 at age 14. The group officially debuted on May 25, 2008, performing on the music program Inkigayo on SBS.[5] Taemin made his acting debut the following year in MBC's comedy Hilarious Housewives as Junsu.[6] In January 2012, he voiced the main character in the Korean version of the animated film Koala Kid.[7] He also joined the singing competition program Immortal Songs 2 as a contestant.[8]

Taemin released his first studio album Press It on February 23, 2016. The album contained ten songs, including the lead single "Press Your Number", which was co-produced by Bruno Mars.[24][25] Taemin told reporters at a media showcase hosted by bandmate Minho at the SM Town Coex Artium in Gangnam District, Seoul, "After my EP, I did perform with Shinee but I also spent a lot of time preparing my next solo album, […] I took a lot of private lessons for voice and dance, and looked over my past songs. I want to say that I've become a stronger performer."[26] The album debuted at number one on the Gaon Album Chart.[27]

In June 2016, Taemin's Japanese debut was announced with the EP Sayonara Hitori and a showcase on his 23rd birthday.

In August 2017, Taemin's first Japanese drama, Final Life: Even If You Disappear Tomorrow, was announced.[40] The crime series, directed by Masatoshi Kurakata and Takeshi Maruyama, was an original Japanese work for Amazon Prime Video and released in September. It starred Taemin and Shota Matsuda.[41] Taemin also provided vocals for the soundtrack for the drama, "What's This Feeling".[42] His first reality series, The Taemin: Xtra Cam, was broadcast through V Live, showing preparations for his upcoming album and behind-the-scenes concert footage.[43]

Taemin joined the reality show The Unit as a mentor in October 2017.[44] His second studio album, Move, was released the same month.[45] Its lead single of the same name gained attention for its unique choreography and sparked a trend called "Move Disease" after a performance of the song went viral in South Korea.[46][47][48] The album debuted at number two on the Gaon Album Chart and number three on the Billboard World Albums Chart.[49][50] On December 10, a repackaged edition of Move was released, titled Move-ing. It added four new songs to the tracklist, including the lead single "Day and Night".[51] That same month, Taemin was scheduled to perform at the annual KBS Song Festival but pulled out a week after the death of bandmate Jonghyun.[52]

The group's promotions began in October and were aimed at the American market.[67] SuperM's self-titled debut EP was released on October 4, with lead single "Jopping".[68] Taemin returned to Japan with his T1001101 concerts in December, performing at Yokohama Arena and Osaka-jō Hall over three days.[69]

2020–present: Never Gonna Dance Again, Advice, Guilty and Eternal

[edit]

Taemin was scheduled to hold a concert, Never Gonna Dance Again, in Seoul in March 2020, but it was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[70][71] Ahead of the release of his upcoming album, he starred in the online reality show Rare-Taem, in which he completed missions based on the results of a board game.[72] Taemin's third Korean studio album, Never Gonna Dance Again, was released in two parts in September and November 2020, respectively.[73] The project, together with lead singles "Criminal" and "Idea", was widely recognized by critics as one of the best K-pop releases of the year.[74][75][76][77]

Taemin released the song "My Day" for the soundtrack of tvN drama series Navillera in March 2021.[78] He released his third Korean EP, Advice, on May 18. The album featured five songs, including the lead single of the same name.[79] He previewed the single at an online concert called N.G.D.A. (Never Gonna Dance Again), which he held through the Beyond Live platform on May 2. The concert drew nearly 90,000 viewers across 119 countries.[80] Taemin participated in the theme song for the 2020 Summer Olympics, which he recorded prior to his enlistment.[81]

Taemin returned as a soloist with his fourth EP Guilty on October 30, 2023, two years and five months after Advice.[82] In December, he held a concert titled Metamorph at the Inspire Arena in Incheon. He was the first artist to hold a standalone concert at the venue, which is the first multi-purpose arena in South Korea.[83] Taemin's solo contract with SM Entertainment ended in March 2024, though he continued to conduct group activities with Shinee under the company.[84] He signed a new contract with BPM Entertainment for his solo promotions.[85] He released his fifth EP, Eternal, on August 19, commemorating the tenth anniversary of his solo debut.[86] On August 31, he embarked on a world tour, titled Ephemeral Gaze, beginning with concerts in Asia.[87] He will host the Mnet survival show Road to Kingdom: Ace of Ace in September 2024.[88]

Public image and musical style

[edit]

Taemin is noted for his distinctive and intricate dancing style, which often incorporates elements of contemporary dance. His frequent use of androgynous fashion and make-up, especially since his 2017 single "Move",[89] has earned him recognition as a pioneer of the genderless performance trend amongst male K-pop idols.[90]

I wanted to go beyond what K-pop typically is perceived as, and through "Move" I was able to show a concept that's more edgy, more powerful. Not only that, but regardless of the gender, I believe that all of the audience will be able to enjoy and listen to this as something different from most of what's coming out in K-pop. (...) My aim was to find a middle ground, mixing both masculine and feminine movements into the choreography together.[91] — Taemin on "Move"

The choreography to "Move", created by Japanese choreographer and frequent collaborator Koharu Sugawara, went viral in South Korea following the single's release, spurring many dance covers by fans and celebrities in a trend dubbed "Move Disease".[92][93]

Taemin's discography is predominantly pop and R&B and occasionally influenced by rock, hip-hop, trap and electro, darker in theme than his work with Shinee, and sensual in character. Lyrically, Taemin's songs cover concepts ranging from love and lust to self-discovery, philosophy and faith. His music videos are often choreography-focused and contain biblical references, particularly "Want".[94]

Philanthropy

[edit]

In 2016, Taemin along with groupmate Key and other artists from SM Entertainment, participated in the "Make a Promise" campaign by UNICEF and Louis Vuitton, whereby 40% of the proceeds were donated through UNICEF to children in need.[95]

Personal life

[edit]

In March 2011, Taemin transferred from Chungdam High School to Hanlim Multi Art School to accommodate his busy schedule during Shinee's Japanese promotions.[96] He graduated in February 2012, but was unable to attend the ceremony due to the band's activities.[97] Taemin enrolled in Myongji University in 2013, majoring in Film and Musicals.[98] He identifies as Catholic.[99]

Military service

[edit]

On April 19, 2021, he announced during a broadcast on V Live that he would be enlisting for his mandatory military service on May 31, serving as a member of the military band.[100][101] On January 14, 2022, it was announced that Taemin would complete his military service as a public service worker due to worsening symptoms of depression and panic disorder.[102] He was discharged on April 4, 2023.[103][104]
