sm to respect the decision of shinee members regarding upcoming dome concerts in japan



for those unaware: shinee is slated to hold a small series of dome concerts in february. the concerts were set up in a way to visibly celebrate their past five tours and albums in japan, and possibly serve as their final dome concerts before onew's enlistment. shinee world japan, their japanese fan club, released a similar statement late on the 23rd and this seemed to be the follow up by sm. speculation is that the statement was released because registration for fan club lottery ticketing was meant to come to a close yesterday.

Agree with everything you said. February is no time... And i dont know if this sounds... Bad or whatever but onew really looked like he wasnt taking care of himself for a while... I just need sme to keep their eye and resources on their idols from now on. Invest in a counseling office that understands the needs of their clients, etc. Shinee have always been trendols, make mental health the trend for these other agencies, too.

it's not bad to say. everyone has been thinking it. like i know we're all went through this already but: regardless of what he did back in august the backlash from it obviously... hit him hard. i'm guessing a combination of anxiety, guilt and stress on top of the depression we already know he's struggled with. i figure he's seen a lot being said about him in the last months (some comments going as far as wishing death on him and other, in the words of my friend who knows k-shawols, being "too reprehensible to repeat in english"). add on the grief with jonghyun probably with the stress revolving around the future of the group and probably stress in relation to his impending enlistment and, yeah.
