fashion style — He wears what's comfortable for him. Most of his wardrobe is varied in color and he wears certain things upon his mood. So, if he's in a very happy mood you see him in bright clothing and vice verse. Also if he needs fashion advice he'd go to a stylist.

THIS IS ME

position — vocalist

traits — bad ) arrogant, judgmental, lazy, and forgetful. good ) open minded, determined, respectful, and intelligent.

personality — 

Taemin is very arrogant to the point it can get egotistical at times. Taemin, himself carries himself on a pedestal. He comes first and only him. He is a guy who has to take care of his business before everyone else. Though give him the benefit of the doubt because he'll surprise you when he steps down every now and then. Being judgment is something he does best. He will serve you with a an apple in your mouth and won't hesitate to do it in front of others. Its not that he sees that he has room to talk but he can't just sit there and not say anything. His mouth and brain doesn't comply that way. But, he doesn't try to change you or expects you to listen to him when he does because to him it doesn't always matter, you do you. 

Being determined is something he does based off his mood otherwise he's a lazy . He has the mentality where if it doesn't interest him then he doesn't give two s about and thus will not do it. He's his own person so he does what he wants. He is very open minded, come to him with anything and he'll listen. This doesn't mean he'll full out agree but he'll listen. Aside from his strong character he can be very forgetful. Can't for the life of him remember certain things and easily looses others. His mind is always running a mile a minute and is the main cause of his forgetfulness. He is also easily distracted which also plays in the whole forgetful dilemma. Another thing is that he's easy to annoy, so fair warning. He has a temper and will go off at the littlest thing, and he knows when he has stepped over the line and will apologize for it. He's a guy with dignity, he doesn't take the bull of others and he's just someone good to have around. He's on this two way street where he expects other to call him out for his bull because he'll do the same. He's all about that give and take so if you want respect give respect. 

 

background — Taemin was born in Busan, South Korea but later moved to Milford, Connecticut. The reason for the move was because of his father had been transferred to a company there. Not much to say about his childhood because it was very normal. He went through high school like it was nothing even came out as Valedictorian. His interest varied from music, sports, and a lot of things. He was active in anything he found remotely interesting. So he played sports, was in a art show here and there, and even did musicals. He also did band all four years of high school so he could pick up a few instruments. Drums and flute are the two he really liked, and continuously play today.  

 

His interest in music and Korean History is what carried him to Seoul National University after graduating. Entering the university he lived as a normal student trying to make his way through life. During this time his parent didn't really contact him because of time differences and work so, Taemin was pretty much alone for a year. Of course he had few friends he obtained during his course at school and the delivery job he had to take up for costly living arrangements. On of his infamous food deliveries he met a exchange student from China in a norebong. One thing lead to another and he ended up a bit tipsy and whaling his heart out in one of the microphones. Soon the exchange student became more than a guy he had just met and more than just friend. He even join the guys band who played at various night clubs. This close relationship they developed lead to many things from moving in with one another and even going to china to live. Though after another year both had decided to end the relationship because it was a lot easier being friends then it was lovers.

 

So, Taemin returned to South Korean and continued where he left off. He went back to school and slowly feel back into place. Weeks after settling back into the flow of things Taemin got a call from TS Entertainment telling him to come in for an audition. First he was surprised because he hadn't had any contact with any companies within Korea it was even weirder since he had just returned. In the end Taemin ignored the call and went on with his life. Another couple of weeks later he received a call from his friend, he asked about his audition and at that moment everything fell into place. He wanted to thank the boy and hit him all at the same time. After splitting up they hadn't talked very much so to out of nowhere here from him and in this situation was mind boggling. With many arguments and encouragement Taemin was on his way to audition for TS Entertainment where he later got accepted as a trainee.

FAMILY IS EVERYTHING

family — 

— Kim Jieun | Mother | Preschool Teacher | 

Jieun, works as a Preschool Teacher at a local private school in Milford. Moving to America was especially hard on her because of the language barrier but, she was glad to accommodate because it meant that he child would have a more free educational life. As for her son's uality she didn't approve but she left him be because its not her life to lead. She was like this with his dreams as well. Didn't approve but left it alone because its his life to live. 

— Kim Juhyuk | Father | Freelance Journalist // Former Director  |

Juhyuk, first worked as a Director at a company that tried to branch outside of Korea. This sent him to America with his family but months after getting settled the company was taken by loan sharks. He loss his job soon after. After such mishaps Juhyuk continued living in America and picked up writing for the local news paper. With him being born within the states the job was easy to snag.  Now with his son, Juhyuk is actually a little bit closer to him then his mother. He wasn't really surprised when his son came to them with the news of entering a entertainment company and wished him the best of luck.

AND SO ARE YOU GUYS!

friends — 

— Hao Xiang | Ex-Lover // Best Friend | Songwriter | 

Xiang and Taemin met at a norebong on one of Taemin's deliveries. Both got close to one another and ended up dating for a year and a half. Even after the break up both were still close. Both still tell each other they love one another. Which is weird to others but makes sense to one another, this is because both see each other as brothers. Xiang still resides in China but when he can he contacts Taemin from time to time. They usually converse in a mixture of Korean and Chinese so not many people fully understand them when they talk among a group of people. Taemin is very thankful to Xiang for sending in his information to TS Entertainment.

— Lee Taemin | Friend | SHINee | 

Taemin K met Taemin L when the latter was hanging around a arcade one evening after vocal training. Both hit it off while playing a friendly game of pool. They took to one another very well. Once Taemin K told the other about his training at TS their relationship blew up even more. Having something like their job aspirations in common made a great connection within their friendship. More they hung out with one another the more they got closer. They even started regarding one another as Kim, or Lee Hyung so it'll be easier for others around them at times. Lee also gives me tips for his monthly trainee evaluations and often looks to him when it comes to advice about the buisness. 

BOY IN LOVE

love interest — Kim Myungsoo 

backup love interest — Kim Jongin 

 

personality —  diligent, easygoing, open minded, and sheltered. -- Myungsoo here is very friendly, hardworking and fun to be around. He knows what he wants to do in life and won't let others stand in his way. He jokes around just to make others smile and is a competitive little who would hunt you down if you've wronged him in anyway. His life outside of music is the most precious to him, his family. It's also the most private, he rarely talks about his family because he becomes easily home sick. Of course he has his bad points like being very hard headed. Also someone who is a bit distant at times, he shys away from situations he can't control and tends to watch from afar.

relationship — Dating | 3 Months. 

Myungsoo met Taemin during a awards ceremony where Taemin had the chance to be one of B.A.P's backup dancers. Though they didn't really say more than a hello and went about their business. The next meeting happen by mistake and lead to them forming a friendship. They soon started discussing their sharing love of photography which opened many more conversations. Both started calling one another a lot sometimes for camera information and other times just to talk about random things. They got closer by the end of a year and started spending a lot more time together. Taemin was the first to confess his feels for Myungsoo, which the latter accepted. Afterwards they started to talk more comfortably, dropping honorifics and all the works. They also bicker about the stupidest things that will always end in laughter, and it usually starts with Myungsoo teasing him. Taemin also likes hearing him speak broken English so he'll purposely speak in English and reply in English just so he'll have to, he also loves the confuse look he gives him at such times. Right now they are just in the early stages of their relationship so everything is still new to them. Taemin doesn't want to be too touchy because he thinks Myungsoo would find it annoying, which he doesn't. Myungsoo finds it hard to speak to him at times because of how straight forward Taemin is. At most they are still trying to know everything about each other done to every nook  

ENY LAST WORDS?

comments/suggestions — They should have their own showtime. In group interactions, I would like to see them form a very good bond with one another. Myungsoo & Taemin moments. 2Tae moments. Xiang meeting Myungsoo, Angst lots of that lol, Fan interactions even sasaengfans trouble.  Radio shows. 

scene requests — Like I mention above Myungsoo & Taemin moments and Xiang meeting Myungsoo. Group doing a video dairy  of their dorm and just random things.
