150520 the celebrity june issue interview - jonghyun

[Jonghyun, until gaining confidence] Because of his silver dyed hairstyle, the other members call Jonghyun "old man". Because he let us hear a lot of his thoughts, even beyond the answer to the questions during our conversations, it's really like he's an aged grandpa. From start to finish, he was thoughtful and did everything remarkably with all of his heart that it's fascinating.

150520 the celebrity june issue interview - minho

[Minho's inborn qualities] On the day of the interview, Minho has an MC job at a music programme in the afternoon; he is the busiest member. We were probably going take a peek at something like impatience from a corner of his mind. However, from the photoshoot at the beginning until the moment at the end when he was getting into the car, he carefully took his time.

150520 the celebrity june issue interview - taemin

[Taemin who is neither early nor late] The maknae of famous SHINee, and the most famous maknae among all of this (idol) world's maknae, Taemin. Because his hyungs show nothing but love for him, fans have dubbed him "TAEMINee". Is this why compared to the other members, his growth to adulthood has drawn a deeper and thicker impression and stayed in the public's hearts? We talked about the seemingly young but not young Taemin's progress velocity.

150520 the celebrity june issue interview - onew

[Onew, this man's mystery] Explaining Onew's stage name which was a reference for his tofu-like image, it doesn't mean that he is like soft tofu that can crumble anytime, but rather nearer to being like a tofu that is tender but firmly solid. After the interview and upon going home, it's once again in our mind. We have caught a glimpse of his surprisingly determined side, and at times he gives very objective answers. So we wonder if today we were talking with Onew or rather Lee Jinki.

150520 the celebrity june issue interview - key

[Key who overflows with competitive power] During the interview, Key kept using the word "competitive power". He has gotten used to attention and is enjoying it. Key's competitive power that is different from the others is definitely this. He shows himself as he is and is unafraid of being talked about. Key knows how important it is for artists to be a continuous topic. It might be that what we see in him is not just the lovely color of his hair.
