SHINee's Taemin drops music video for new single 'Advice'
SHINee's Taemin proves once again why he deserves to be called the Idol's Idol as he delivers another breathtaking performance in the music video of his latest solo single 'Advice.'
The song is off his third mini album of the same title, which was released today, May 18.
According to a press release, “Advice” is an R&B track “with a grand atmosphere that contains a warning to those who judge their opponents by stereotypes. Taemin's sharp singing rap, which expresses his cynical feelings, added charm.”
He shares in an interview with Naver, “I think it's a song where you can meet my unique character. It was hard because my mouth couldn't move fast when I recorded, but I think I'll be able to show you a new side of me.”
Meanwhile, the choreography emphasized Taemin's charisma, with hand gestures that complement the song's message.

As expected, Shawols were floored with Taemin's visuals, voice, and dance moves.

“Advice” will be Taemin's last solo release and “SHINee Day” will be his last activity with SHINee before he enlists in the military on May 31. He is the last SHINee member to undergo South Korea's mandatory military service and is expected to be discharged in November 2022.
Taemin is SM Entertainment's first soloist from an active idol group, having debuted as a solo artist in 2014 with the song “Danger.”
“Advice” is now available on all digital streaming platforms. Aside from the title track, four other songs are included in the album, namely “Light,” “Strings,” “SAD KIDS,” and “If I Could Tell You,” which features Girls' Generation's Taeyeon.
