We will fully support Taemin’s wide-ranging music activities and do our best to help him excel in various fields from now on. We ask for a lot of support and love for Taemin’s new beginning.

A lot of changes have occurred already. Firstly, Taemin has been given his own artist logo.
Taemin now has his own company-run social media channels for Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), and YouTube. He also has a website. Additionally, his staff has an X account.
BPM Entertainment released profile photos for Taemin. This included two photoshoots showcasing Taemin’s unique style.
The first photoshoot featured Taemin in a classic black-and-white style. The second showcased him in color, showing his individuality and iconic fashion sense.
Now, fellow labelmate, choreographer and dancer Kany, who has worked with SHINee on “HARD” and more, welcomed Taemin by retweeting BPM Entertainment’s announcement. She recently signed with the agency herself.
