This is accomplished through their complex dance routines, live vocal talent, and fashion influence.The boy group’s name is formed from “shine” and the suffix “ee,” which means “one who receives the light.” In May 2008, SHINee debuted under SM Entertainment with their first EP, “Replay.” The group’s five members—Onew, Minho, Key, Taemin, and Jonghyun—brought with them diverse backgrounds in piano, dance, acting, and writing music.
