[NEWS] 120326 SHINee’s Jonghyun had to “erase his abs” for “Sherlock”

On March 23rd, SHINee guested on SBS Power FM‘s ‘Boom’s Young Street‘ revealing behind-the-scenes story regarding Jonghyun‘s “Sherlock” photo.

When asked to discuss their album jacket photos, which featured heavy skin exposure, the members began by stating, “All of the members were satisfied with it and we all love it.”

When asked who was the most satisfied with their picture, Minho replied, “Jonghyun was the one that worked out the most so he looked the most satisfied after checking his album jacket picture.”

“Do you have any secrets in regards to the use of CG on the pictures?” MCs asked, to which the boys replied, “Instead of just showing our body, we had a concept in mind so we used bright lights to hide any muscles and bring out our body lines. Jonghyun actually had so much muscles that we had to erase them with CG effects. Jonghyun’s body is pretty much like the characters in ‘Dragon Ball‘.”

Boom praised the boys on their comeback and agreed with their satisfaction, stating, “SHINee’s album jacket pictures are definitely worth purchasing for yourself.”

SHINee Shares Story Behind Topless “Sherlock” Photoshoot 

SHINee shared an interesting story behind their “Sherlock” album jacket photos during the March 23 episode of SBS radio “Boom’s Young Street.” They started off by saying, “All the members were very satisfied. We really like it a lot.”

When asked which member was the most satisfied, Minho answered, “Jonghyun worked out the most, so he seemed the happiest right after the topless photoshoot.”
They were also asked if they used any computer graphics for the photos, but they said, “The concept was to focus on showing the bodyline, not the entire body. So we used bright lights to hide the muscles and liven up the lines.”

“But Jonghyun had too much muscle on his body so we had to delete some parts with computer graphic. Jonghyun’s body right now is almost like that of a ‘Dragon Ball’ character,” the members added.

Boom also expressed his admiration for the photos, as he later said, “After seeing SHINee’s album jacket photos this time, I even felt like saving them on my external hard drive. It’s that valuable.”

SHINee's jacket photos for their latest album, "Sherlock," caused some controversy for its odd concept.
