A Look Back At The 13 Years SHINee’s Taemin Has Been Wrecking Us With His Iconic Visuals
본문
SHINee‘s Taemin is one of K-Pop’s biggest fashion icons… but was he always that way? SHINee’s 13th anniversary has come and gone, so let’s look back at how he looked for the past 13 years!
1. 2008
Taemin starts, well, like any 13-year-old idol debut would… adorable, but also a little strange. Granted, in 2008, everyone loved bright colors, layers, and mismatched clothes, so we can forgive it. Also, he’s just cute.
2. 2009
This year brings more bright colors and strange styles` but this time with longer hair and curls! We have no clue what these glasses are made of, but they sure make a statement!
3. 2010
Here we get the all mighty long-haired Taemin! This hairstyle is a very popular one of his, but there’s one even more popular a few years from now! This year we’re moving away from bright colors and moving toward blacks and golds.
4. 2011
We’re not quite sure why blond was the transition between the “Lucifer” era and “Sherlock” era, but he looks adorable!
5. 2012
Here we are, perhaps the most popular year of early Taemin. Fans adored his long hair and loved it even more when he would style it either in a half-up or a ponytail. This year also brought the infamous album photos of all the members shirtless. It was an odd choice, but it was certainly unforgettable!
6. 2013
Here is where we can truly see Taemin and his stylist’s experimentation begin to form. There’s more color, slightly more accessories, and more patterns! That thread also almost looks neon! How’d they do it?
7. 2014
This year, Taemin began his solo career! His “ACE” outfit gives off a sophisticated and sleek vibe that goes perfectly with his dance style.
“Danger” is where Taemin’s style really begins advancing at a fast pace. He’s experimenting with darker concepts, more extreme accessories (such as giant necklaces and nose chains), as well as showing more skin.

SHINee’s Odd era was certainly a little odd, but it was also a straightforward summer style. For “View,” Taemin wears both bright and dull colors in more simple clothing like tank tops and button-ups.

In “Married to the Music,” he stays in a dull color with a simple suit but accessorizes with odd things such as playing cards and hands.
9. 2016
This year, Taemin once again gives us a little extreme with a little plain. In “Sayonara Hitori” and its stages, he went for a dark, sleek look. The first look gives almost an anime feel to it, while the second looks like an elegant dancer.

“Move” is the era where Taemin convinced non-fans to join the most. Essays have been written about this era as he embraced a simplistic androgynous style with smooth moves.

The Story of Light had very colorful visuals. From blues, to purples, to oranges, this era was gorgeous from start to finish.
12. 2019
Turning away from color, we’re back at sexy. We couldn’t be happier! The blue suit is one of the most iconic outfits that fans remember.

This era brings much of the darkness from “Want” and “Move” with a few nods to the past like “View” and “Everybody.”
Bonus: 2021
Taemin has truly grown into a fashion icon that inspires many to where what they want when they want. He broke the internet with this amazing outfit featuring “women”‘s clothes and struck all of us with his dark charisma.
