A small personal note about myself before I begin: (I know this isn't about myself, yet I thought this was necessary. I'll delete this note if anyone thinks it's unneeded) 
I honestly felt that I have no right to say anything, mostly because I'm not one that had been in their fandom and that I think, or at least I had thought, that I did not experience such crippling depression. However, I wanted to say something. It might sound fake, but I hope it still means something

Kim Jonghyun. 

When I first got into SHINee, he wasn't the one who caught my eye at first glance, because I was biased over their looks. However, after weeks, months even, of indulging myself in them and their videos, I realised that Jonghyun was the one that shone the most. His actions, his words, his antics, his voice, his whole being spoke out to me, and (no offense meant directed to the other members) he was the one that shone the brightest, amongst all of them.

People say that you only realise how much a person means to you until they're gone. It's true. After I got distracted by other groups, I didn't pay much attention to SHINee. But they were still there; I still listen to their music, watch them on stage. And I didn't realise how much Jonghyun really influenced me, because of his love for music, because of his passion for the art and the dreams that he pursued, and ultimately succeeded at. 

I hope no one will blame him for what had happened. Suicide is a serious matter, and before you think about those around the victim, you should think about the victim himself. Jonghyun had been known to suffer from depression for years, and it's actually evident, if you look at his eyes closely enough. They say the eyes are the windows to the soul of a person.

Even if he's laughing, his eyes are sad. 

Depression is also terrible. So, please please think about the victim before the others. The entertainment industry is hard; all of us knows that. But it's the idols who truly knew what kind of life there is, and I applaud Jonghyun, as well as the other idols, for their endurance. Jonghyun, all of them should've deserved much much more than they had.

Jonghyun was truly an amazing person, and I believe that his soul is beautiful. His songs, his voice, and his words that had moved the hearts of many, had been the inspiration of many artists who wanted to pursue their own dreams. He's a true motivation for others, and a real star that shone in the dark dark night. He's an angel, who, besides emitting his own glow, had supported and lifted the glow of many others. He's a beautiful human being, and nothing could change that.

Even though I do not fully support his decision, I won't blame him either. If he felt that it's best for him, then I'll let him be. It's his own choice, and I sincerely hope that he had found peace and happiness in the afterlife, and that he wouldn't suffer as he had before. I knew that he's an atheist, so praying for him probably wouldn't work, but I still hope that he can find peace in the afterlife, and that he wouldn't be tormented by the devils, both inner and outer, that had been hurting him for these years. 

My condolences to all the shawols that had and will continue to support them in the far future, Jonghyun's friends, and especially his family and members. Especially the fans who had showered them in so much love, please do hold on and continue to support them. <3 

Rest in peace, Jonghyun.
