4 DAZZLING BOY

(POV: Kibum)

Prior to my first meeting with Taemin, I had a week to pore over everything the internet has on him. Within that short span of time, I understood why Taemin is called the King of Kpop. He sets every stage he graces on fire. He’s a prodigy whose movements are hypnotizing. But more than his skills and technique, it’s his unbridled passion that sets him apart from the other great dancers. As for his voice, it is captivating; it is soft but it holds power, with a vibrato that ghosts over and glides into the ears. But what haunts me most is his stage face, which is an unbelievably y sight to behold.

At the end of my research and immersion—courtesy of YouTube mostly—for the purpose of preparing for my professional duties to Taemin, I have realized that I truly like Lee Taemin the singer-dancer. Again, I thanked my lucky stars because I can finally discard the dreadful thought of lending my linguistic talent and love for words to someone whom I may not end up admiring, or respecting at least.

No matter what character Taemin possesses—something I’m not too optimistic about because he shot to fame at a very early age—at least I can already vouch for his credibility as a music icon and therefore I can commit to doing my job well. I will help him break through further in the international scene because he is simply a brilliant artist.
