Main article: Shinee

Lee Tae-min was born on July 18, 1993.[3] With a talent for singing and dancing, in 2008 he was chosen to debut as a member of Shinee at the age of 14. The group officially debuted on May 25, 2008, in the program SBS' Inkigayo.[4] In addition to his work as a singer, Lee made his acting debut in 2009 in MBC's comedy Tae Hee, Hye Kyo, Ji Hyun as Junsu.[5]

A video teaser of the song was shown at the PYL Younique Show on October 17, 2012.[7]

In April 2013, SM Entertainment revealed that Lee would be taking part in the reality variety show We Got Married with Son Na-eun as his partner, replacing the previous couple Kwanghee and Sunhwa.[8] In the same year, Lee made a three-episode appearance on the drama Dating Agency: Cyrano as idol singer Ray/Yang Ho-yeol.[9] In June 2013, he featured in Super Junior-M's Henry solo song "Trap" alongside Super Junior's Kyuhyun.[10] In December of that year, he participated in the soundtrack of the series Prime Minister & I. "Footsteps", the first track to be previewed on the series at the end of its third episode, was composed and arranged by Kim Jung-bae with vocals by Lee.[11]

On August 18, 2014, Lee made his solo debut with the release of his first extended play Ace.[12] The six-song EP peaked at number one on South Korea's Gaon Album Chart while its lead single "Danger" reached number five on the Gaon Digital Chart.[13] The music video for "Danger" was released on August 16—its choreography was created by American choreographer Ian Eastwood and SM's performance directing team BeatBurger. Lee traveled to Los Angeles to learn the routine.[14]

On February 3, 2015, Lee was confirmed for the cast of the first season of Match Made in Heaven Returns.[15] On April 14, 2015, Lee was also a cast member in JTBC's program Off to School alongside other celebrities. On June 1, 2015, he released the song "That Name" in collaboration with Jonghyun, for the soundtrack of KBS2's Who Are You: School 2015.[16] The song debuted at number 36 on the Gaon Digital Chart.[17]

Lee released his first full album Press It on February 23, 2016; the album contained a total of ten songs, including the lead single "Press Your Number", which was co-produced by Bruno Mars.[18] Lee told reporters at a media showcase hosted by fellow Shinee member Minho at the SMTOWN Coex Artium in Gangnam-gu, Seoul: "After my EP, I did perform with Shinee but I also spent a lot of time preparing my next solo album, […] I took a lot of private lessons for voice and dance, and looked over my past songs. I want to say that I’ve become a stronger performer."[19] The album debuted at number one on the Gaon Album Chart.[20]

In June 2016, Lee's Japanese debut was announced with the EP Sayonara Hitori, including a showcase on his 23rd birthday. The EP was released on July 27 and included four new songs and the Japanese version of "Press Your Number".[21] In June 2016, Lee was confirmed for the cast of Mnet's dance program Hit the Stage.[22] He performed together with his dance partner Koharu Sugawara, who is the choreographer of his Japanese debut song "Sayonara Hitori".[23] He took first place in the second episode.[24]

2017–2018: Flame of Love, Move, and Taemin[]

In July 2017, Lee held his first solo concert in Japan at the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo[25] and released a new Japanese song, "Flame of Love", ahead of the concert,[26] which attracted 28,000 fans.[27] Lee held his first Korean concert, Off-Sick, at the end of August for three days with a total of 12,000 audience members.[28] Encore concerts of Off-Sick were announced on September 7 and took place on October 14 and 15 at Jamsil Gymnasium, which holds twice as many people from the previous hall.[29] The two-night shows brought out 20,000 fans.[30]

In August 2017, Lee's first Japanese drama, Final Life: Even If You Disappear Tomorrow,[31] was announced. The crime drama, directed by Masatoshi Kurakata and Takeshi Maruyama, is an original Japanese work of Amazon Prime Video and was released in September. It stars Lee and Shota Matsuda.[32] The soundtrack for the drama, "What's This Feeling" is also sung by Lee.[33]

Lee's second studio album, Move, was released in October 2017.[34] Its lead single of the same name gained attention for its unique choreography and sparked a trend known as "Move Disease" after a performance of the song went viral in the country.[35][36][37] The album debuted at number two on the Gaon Album Chart and number three on the Billboard World Albums Chart.[38] On December 10, a repackaged edition of Move was released, under the title Move-ing. It added four new songs to the tracklist, including the lead single "Day and Night".[39] That same month, he was scheduled to perform at the annual KBS Song Festival, but pulled out a week after the death of fellow Shinee member Jonghyun.[40]

On November 5, 2018, Lee released the self-titled Taemin, his third overall and first Japanese studio album.[41]

2019: Want, Famous, SuperM[]

Lee released his second Korean EP, Want, on February 11, 2019.[42] The choreography for the title song of the same name was created by Koharu Sugawara.[42] The EP ranked on various Billboard charts, including number four on World Albums, making it Lee's fifth entry to date, and number five on Heatseekers Albums, which was a new peak for the artist.[43]

On August 4, 2019, Lee digitally released his third Japanese EP Famous, with a physical release on August 28, 2019, through EMI Records Japan and Universal Music Japan.[44] The lead single and title track "Famous" was released on July 26, 2019, along with a music video.

In August 2019, Lee became a member of SuperM, a "K-pop supergroup" created by SM Entertainment in collaboration with Capitol Records. The group's promotions began in October and were aimed at the American market.[45][46] SuperM's self-titled debut EP was released on October 4, 2019 with lead single "Jopping".[47]

2020–present: Never Gonna Dance Again, Advice, and military service[]

Lee's third Korean studio album, Never Gonna Dance Again, was released in two parts, in September and November 2020 respectively.[48] The project, together with its lead singles "Criminal" and "Idea", was widely recognized by critics as one of the best K-pop releases of the year.[49][50][51][52][53][54]

On April 19, 2021, Lee announced during a broadcast on V Live that he would be enlisting for his mandatory military service on May 31.[55] He released his third Korean EP, Advice, before doing so, on May 18. The album features five songs, including the lead single of the same name.[56]

Style and influence[]

Lee is noted for his distinctive, intricate dancing style, which often incorporates elements of contemporary dance. His frequent use of androgynous fashion and heavy make-up, especially starting from his 2017 single "Move", has become one of his trademarks.[57]

I wanted to go beyond what K-pop typically is perceived as, and through "Move" I was able to show a concept that’s more edgy, more powerful. Not only that, but regardless of the gender, I believe that all of the audience will be able to enjoy and listen to this as something different from most of what’s coming out in K-pop. (...) My aim was to find a middle ground, mixing both masculine and feminine movements into the choreography together.[58] - Lee on "Move"

The choreography to the song "Move", created by Japanese choreographer and Lee's frequent collaborator Koharu Sugawara, went viral in Korea, spurring many dance covers by both fans and celebrities. The phenomenon was dubbed "Move disease".[59][60] Lee is recognized as the pioneer of the genderless trend in the performance of male K-pop idols.[61]

Lee's discography is predominantly pop and R&B, with occasional influences of rock, hip-hop, trap and electro, and is notably darker in theme compared to his work with Shinee. His songs' concepts cover a wide range of topics, such as love, lust, self-discovery, philosophy and faith. His music videos, known for their sensual character, are often choreography focused, and frequently contain biblical references, particularly in "Want" and "Idea".[62][63]

Philanthropy[]

In 2016, Taemin along with groupmate Key and other artists from SM Entertainment took part in the "Make a Promise" campaign organised by UNICEF and Louis Vuitton, whereby 40% of the proceeds were donated through UNICEF to the children in need.[64]

Personal life[]

In March 2011, Lee transferred from Chungdam High School to Hanlim Multi Art School to accommodate his hectic schedule during Shinee's Japanese advancement.[65] He graduated in February 2012, but was unable to attend the ceremony due to the band's activities.[66] Lee has been majoring in Film and Musicals at Myongji University since 2013.[67] He is Catholic.[68]
