So shocked to hear this ...

"SHINee's Key had some sad news to share with his fans earlier today

as he announced that his grandmother has passed away on his

birthday.

"To everyone who cares about me and my team, hello. This is Key," he posted

to Instagram earlier today. "I don't know how to say this, but.. I wasn't able

to participate during the Japanese promotions on the 24th due to personal

problems. My grandmother passed away on the 23rd. She took care of me with

love when I was growing up, so I am still in shock over the fact and can't

believe that she is gone."

"However, I felt that it was wrong to tell this news through a company

announcement ahead of SMTOWN and the first concert of the tour, so I am

just telling you this now. I know that my grandmother was watching me from

heaven and will continue strongly through the rest of the tour," he said.

"Please support me and I will see you with a smiling face! Thank you."

May she rest in peace and our thoughts are with Key and his family during

this difficult time."
