YES, please.

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

That guy in the front is really cute tbh.

[tsuyoi-hikari.livejournal.com]

That's Ian -- the one who will choreograph for him. I hope he gives Taemin really awesome and difficult dance moves! :DD

[confuqued.livejournal.com]

OH WOW IAN! He's perfect for Taemin, & aww he brought his gf.

[canxi.livejournal.com]

Oh cool! Taemin is a really good dancer; I think he can handle Ian's odd-ball style.

[misoras.livejournal.com]

ian is 21? and taemin 20, right?

wow so young and promising.

[undeniablysarah.livejournal.com]

Taemin just turned 21 today/yesterday in Korea.

[e-bone (from livejournal.com)]

Ok, now I'm excited. I hope SM decides to go with the multicultural crew in the pic (honestly surprised at the lack of filters they are putting on Ian as well).

ETA: Spoke too soon as it's been deleted jfc SM why don't you just let the people you work with know how to proceed??

[undeniablysarah.livejournal.com]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am ready.
Ian is so talented and a perfect match for Taemin in terms of style so this should be great.
However, now that there is a little more substantial evidence toward a solo I am expecting the hate to start coming fast. Which sucks and is not necessary but it is going to happen no doubt. I just hope people can accept it quickly and painlessly and support the boys in all of their individual activities.
And good news is if he is having a solo then that means he will have to change this horrible hairstyle/cut and get rid of this horrible middle part!

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

lol hate already has started, as if it was HIS fault that Onew/Jjong/any other SM artist didn't get a solo before him. Get mad at SM, but not at him. What is he supposed to do if SM gives them the opportunity of a solo career, refusing? Would you really refuse that chance if you were in his shoes? People here are so damn hypocritical. So if their faves released a solo project, they'd like other people bash them only because they don't like his/her face or other stupid shit? I don't understand why some people have the necessity of going to his posts to bash him. Don't like, don't follow, but no need to be a fucking dick about it. I don't go to your faves' posts to bash their faces or their singing or whatever. It's immature and rude as fuck.

I'm really excited! I hope Ian gives Taem really complicated moves that showcase his technicality and precision as a dancer. Really hope that the song will not disappoint me or else I will be truly bitter... ;_;

Obligatory hair comment: Please lose the hair asap. This is like the worst hair he ever sported -- man I think I even like his mushroom hair better (if that even possible)? >.>

This. If the solo finally happens, I hope it's a jam with a kickass choreography. It'd be a pity if he gave Taemin a weak ass choreography when he's a great dancer.

[kaylaa7x.livejournal.com]

i'm so glad that he's getting this opportunity. you betta slay taebb, show 'em what you're made of, take no prisoners.

[areebyee.livejournal.com]

I'm ready to be slayed!! In other news, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TAEMIN!

[seroquels.livejournal.com]

Well poop it's saying content not available :( Did SM lay the smack down or is my phone being dumb?

[jeliza]

I'm guessing SM. I found a screencap on tumblr: http://jongtaefever.tumblr.com/post/92132246249/photo-ian-eastwoods-instagram-update-140718

[ababobaby.livejournal.com]

wow @ ian eastwood

their body type is similar and the dance is totally easy for taemin to get by <3 and it suits him as well woot woot

[princetabi.livejournal.com]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

okay i had to get that out. i accept this if its true but i'm not ecstatic lol

[torontok.livejournal.com]

I'm excited for this ngl

[achan123.livejournal.com]

taemins hair is an ABSOLUTE travesty omg

[mollyana.livejournal.com]

ia, I wish there was something like what Parris did with Taeyang, and we get to see some 'official dance practice' with the guys in it :D

I think they could work pretty well because Ian style usually empathize more the footwork and Taemin (outside a group routines) has mostly problem using his arms. I'm really excited to seeing fresh faces into kpop routines, hope Ian doesn't disappoint.

[ultrabookworm.livejournal.com]

Wow so this is really happening. I'm excited to see how this turns out.

[frantastic.livejournal.com]

well, since this is happening i guess i'll have to get used to the idea lol

i hope they pick a song that suits his voice

also i wasn't aware of omona's policy change in terms of the content of comments

[babyonions.livejournal.com]

I luv u <3

[miuratenshi.livejournal.com]

I am excited. And this better be a vampire concept or I will be mad.

[maghishaw.livejournal.com]

lol please not

[areebyee.livejournal.com]

lol wtf happened to the comments here tbh. All these infighting amongst SHINee fans is getting old fast.

Just, take multiple seats everyone. If you're pressed about Onew not getting any solos then fine cause so am I, and much like everyone else I'd kill to have official Jongyu subunit promos cause the last time they even sang a duet together was back in 2008, but how is that Taemin's fault. Correct me if I'm wrong but there wasn't even much uproar over Key getting musical after musical instead of Onew, so lbr all of this is just because it's Taemin, because his improvement + pompous stans (in tumblr or elsewhere cause god knows Taemin stans have abandoned omona) who suddenly think Taemin's better than everyone else + SM favoring him (which again isn't even his fault) makes Jongyu stans feel defensive and insecure and thus the constant need to put him/his vocals/his everything down all the time. Plus the fact that omona is weird on Taemin for inexplicable reasons

Well, if anything blame Onew and Jjong for teaching the kid how to sing in the first place.

[miuratenshi.livejournal.com]

TBH I haven't seen people blaming Taemin so much as I've seen people just upset about Onew and Jjong not getting a solo debut first. I've seen one person call Taemin unattractive in a solo debut post and one or two people comment on his voice being weak but for the most part people are excited. So I don't understand why people are upset when there's really no Taemin hate in this post, nor was there much in the last post.

[uledy.livejournal.com]

Not even reading these long ass threads.

That's a really cute picture. I don't know who this choreographer is, but I hope Taebb gets some good material cause lord knows most of SM choreography is stale. Wouldn't want this kid's talent wasted on that mess.

Still excited- get it bb!

good choice. your time is better spent elsewhere to be quite perfectly honest lol.

but re: the choreographer, i didn't know him either but i looked him up and it seems that he specializes in the very trendy/contemporary smooth popping locking style. its very jay park. perfect for taeminnie.

[rennehollic.livejournal.com]

I cant see it....

[uledy.livejournal.com]

welp, I can't stand his voice tbqh, but song has a possibility of being a jam, seeing how Ian Eastwood is the choreographer, which is such a good match for Taemin, so I expect a lot from the choreography.

OT Megan is such a flawless dancing queen. I really like her.

[edanz-castle.livejournal.com]

Oh, this guy! I found out about him the other day! 0_0 He's good! I can see Taemin adapting his style.

[bunica1990.livejournal.com]

Ivm interested tbh

Also, Ian is cute.
