Key and Minho from SHINee Renew Contracts with SM Entertainment Following Taemin and Onew’s Departure: Korean News

SHINee fans rejoice as Key and Minho have decided to continue their journey with SM Entertainment by renewing their contracts with the K-pop label. This news comes just days after Taemin and Onew parted ways with the agency, marking a new chapter for the beloved group.

On April 9, SM Entertainment officially announced the contract renewals, expressing their happiness in continuing their partnership with Key and Minho. The agency stated, “We will provide our full support in various ways for Key and Minho to shine not only as members of SHINee but also as solo artists.”

Key and Minho also shared their excitement about the renewal, highlighting the strong bond they have with SM Entertainment. They expressed their gratitude towards the agency staff and their fans, promising to continue creating great music and performances.

While Key and Minho are staying with SM Entertainment, Taemin and Onew have embarked on new paths. Taemin joined Big Planet Made Entertainment, while Onew signed with the newly established label GRIFFIN Entertainment. This shift in the SHINee members’ careers adds an interesting twist to the group’s dynamic.

SHINee, consisting of Onew, Key, Minho, Taemin, and the late Jonghyun, debuted in 2008 under SM Entertainment and has since become one of the most iconic K-pop groups. With numerous hit songs and successful albums under their belt, fans are eagerly anticipating what the future holds for SHINee and its members.
