Just want to tell you all, actually this is the first SHINee group. I'm very proud of myself XD But of course other people thinks their the first one who create SHINee group.
SHINee (Korean: 샤이니) is a five-member boy band formed by SM Entertainment in 2008. The group debuted on May 25, 2008 on SBS Popular Songs with the single, "누난 너무 예뻐(Replay)". The five members are Onew (the leader), Jonghyun, Taemin, Minho, and Key.
Pre-debut
After the success of K-pop music groups TVXQ, Super Junior and Girls' Generation, SM Entertainment decided to form another boy band to enter the K-pop scene. Unlike SM Entertainment's previous musical acts, SHINee has remained a secret until May 18, 2008 when the introduction of the new group surfaced on various articles on the Internet. The members themselves were a mystery although most members made brief media and album appearances prior to debut. Jonghyun lent his voice in the duet with Jang Ri In, "An Amorous Love" (交错的爱), which was recorded in Jang Ri In's first Chinese album. Key made a cameo appearance in Super Junior's first film, Attack on the Pin-Up Boys. Minho appeared in a fashion show in March 2008. SHINee is composed of five teenagers whose ages range from 14-18 years of age, and is described as a leading contemporary band. According to SM Entertainment, SHINee is going to lead the generation with their trendy dance, fashion, and music.
A teaser video of the group was released on May 19, 2008, in the group's official website. SHINee's debut music video was released on May 22, 2008 and their first mini album on May 23, 2008.
Origin of the name
SHINee is the combination of "shine" and "ee," which means "people receiving the light." This light, as applied to the group, is the "spotlight" directed toward SHINee, whose goal is to fascinate fans, regardless of their age or where they come from, with its diverse music.
