[Concert Review] Welcome to SHINee World

It was a concert that showed why SHINee describes itself as a ‘contemporary group.’

SHINee invited its audience to a 190-minute-long tour through its SHINee World theme park and had everyone cheering in satisfaction.




In its SHINee World 2 concert held on July 22 in Seoul, SHINee flew through the air, jumped around like beasts with bare chests and handcuffs and spurted blood after a gun and swordfight, putting on a perfect, fantasy theme park show.

The concert processions were so fantastic, even the small mistakes seemed like they were part of the show.

For example, the staff’s hands that were accidentally shown grabbing onto Jonghyun’s ankle when he went backstage, after flying through the air, looked like the devil′s hands pulling an angel into hell.

In the intro, the five SHINee members landed on earth after a meteorite collision and traveled through space, African jungles, medieval times, underwater, a city of the night, high schools and prisons, transcending time and space.




Jonghyun said at the press roundtable held before the concert that the concert was “a show that can be seen at a theme park” and that those who were there for it “will be able to go home with smiles on their faces.”

It didn’t take long to figure out what he meant. The three-level stage mechanism that continued to rise and fall with each performance helped the members fly through the air, disappear under the stage, appear on water and hide behind burning flames.

Other stage settings such as the 17-meter-long LED screen, two live screens, wires, a turntable and lifts, as well as the laser, magic and fountain effects all helped make the SHINee World theme park believable.

The genre of the concert also dived and surged like a roller coaster, going from sci-fi to swordfight action, campus romance, mystery, comedy, adventure and thriller.

The audience not only got wads of SHINee money, they were hit with blasts of water, surprised by the flames and confetti and melted at the members’ cute moves.




The 29 songs SHINee performed on this day, from the second album’s promotional single Lucifer to its last encore piece Life, were bittersweet.

The members led the theme park tour and plunged its pearl aqua green audience into a world of fantasy and light.

The five solo performances and the group′s first performance of the Korean version of Seesaw, a single from its first Japan album, were like bonuses that satisfied the audience.

SHINee had the crowd going wild with a concert full of sights to see, as if it was determined to pour everything it had into that one performance.

After a placard event the fans put on, in which they held up placards reading ‘I’ll love you tomorrow, too,’ Minho said, “We’ll continue to deliver good music, so please continue to love us,” and Jonghyun showed tears while he said, “I’m so thankful for your unwavering love.”

The audience answered their thanks and the great performance with a big “I love you.”

SHINee’s Taemin and Minho almost kiss, fans go wild

The talented boys of SHINee continued to deliver a round of powerful performances yesterday for their second concert, dubbed ‘SHINee World Concert II‘.

Following Jonghyun‘s naughty attempt at a passionate kiss with Taemin, which made Shawols‘ go wild, it seems that Taemin is now the one delivering copious amounts of fan service, by practically planting a big, juicy kiss on fellow member Minho.

The two were jokingly messing around on the stage until Taemin decided to surprise the crowd by passing along a paper bill, by mouth, to Minho.
Check out a clip of the ‘interaction’ below starting at 0:36:

2min shippers, are you enjoying SHINee’s recent streak of fan service?
