I’m new in town
Hi guys,
Since this is such a new fandom I’m aware that there are hundreds of these introduction type posts. So I’ll try to keep mine more SHINee based than me based because, lets be honest, that’s why we’re all here.
Of coruse, I do have to talk about myself a little. Hi, I’m BlingBling, you can call me Bling. I am 19, like composing and work as a barista. That’s basically my life. Not even kidding. I have nothing going on. It’s boring. See, I told you you didn’t want to hear about me.
My boring life is partially why I love SHINee so much, I think. They’re just so fresh and new. They have clearly worked incredibly hard to get to debut and their song is really catchy. Their voices are really good too. Young, obviously (Taemin though) but really well trained and controlled for a new idol group. How many groups have a good debut? Not many. Seriously, I can think of… none off the top of my head.
So yeah, they got me. I don’t usually do the idol thing. I never even got into idol groups in elementary and middle school when everyone else was. Even when all my friends had childhood crushes on idols I just… didn’t care, you know? Honestly SHINee is the first group I’ve ever gotten into to this extent becuse I just couldn’t resist their charms.
Minho – he’s so tall and, although he’s younger than me, he just oozes this maturity and strength. He’s quiet, from what I’ve seen but when he gets comfortable in his surroundings his unique humour comes out to play and I love that. He can be so childish but he holds himself back to be the mature one, it’s adorable. He’s so competitive too, some would say too much, but everyone has to have a flaw, right? I know I have many. I’ve seen debates online about how he plays it up for the camera but I’m not sure, he seems pretty true to himself on most shows. It might be exaggerated a little but I think it’s true enough. That’s just my personal opinion though.
Taeminnie – he’s just adorable. He’s so young. I honestly envy him, he’s 16 and exactly where he wants to be. Here I am, a high school grad with no career progression or future plans. He’s making me look bad :P The kid can be a little dense,I ‘ve noticed but that’s probably an age thing. His dancing is incredible though and the way he moves is impressive. I don’t understand how he does it, it’s like he’s made of water or something. He just flows. Like whoosh. It’s weird.
Unpopular opinion: he’s not as cute as he makes out to be. I reckon he’s way more mature than he acts on camera. Oh, he’s cute but he can’t be as innocent as he pretends. Not after being a trainee for so many years. I like to think he’s a devil off camera. Not in a mean way, just in a won’t take crap from anyone kinda way, you know.
Key – his name is awesome. Seriously, take your own name, shorten it and make it English. Genius. I get it was necessary but ha, it’s so simple. No but seriously, it fits him in a weird way. He has opened so many doors for himself through his determination and hard work. Hence, he is his own key. Or something. Maybe I’m taking that analogy too far.
His voice is super unique but still awesome. It sounds really good with the other three and it’s just overall impressive. He’s super fashionabletoo which is awesome. I don’t really know much about fashion, oh, I know what looks good but it’s not necessarily ‘this season’s trend’ so his knowledge in that area is completely alien to me.
His bluntness is also refreshing. How many idols keep quiet when they clearly want ot say something? So many. How many actually do say what they want when they want? Basically none. Key is so refreshing to watch. I especially love his bluntness in contrast to how he acts like the other members’ mother. I have this amazing image of Key in a floral apron wielding a spatula. How amazing would that be to see? Although, maybe from another room, or through a screen. That boy seems scary if angry and I’m sure that outfit would make him mad and I’m not sure I want to see that.
Onew – If Key is the mother, then Onew is the father. He’s my ultimate bias. It might be because he’s the closest to me in age and the only member older than me (I’m old, shut up), partially. But mostly it’s because he just seems like such an amazing person. He’s so sweet and caring, so many people have said so, so it has to be true, at least in part. He’s adorable in every way. He’s so clumsy and bumbling but at the same time, so strong and self-assured. His humour is… strange but also charming and he makes me happy when I watch him. And his voice, oh my lord that voice. I’ve written so many songs inspired by that voice. It’s magical.
I could go on for days, but I’ll stop now. Just know that I love SHINee, I love their concept, I love their voices, I love their faces. They are beautiful people and have gained a fan for life in me :3
Peace out,
Bling

CHAPTER NOTES: I started this fic in December 2014 but this chapter wasn’t added onto the overall fic until around March 2015. Once this fic got long, I realized I needed some chapters to break up the arcs. Hence, some little snippets of online activity. So don’t worry, the whole fic isn’t in this format. This is just an introduction :D
