OKAY THEN MAYBE I AM DISAPPOINTED.

"SM spent so much money on EXO's teasers they can't buy clothes for SHINee."

I MEAN I SEE THESE KINDS OF THINGS ON THE INTERNET AND I AM SO ASSURED THAT IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN TO MY FANDOM AND THEN BOOM IT DOES AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY, THINK, OR DO.

I literally shrieked when I saw Taemin's teaser pictures. I mean, yes they're just pictures and teaser pics don't really define the full concept of the comeback (remember Lucifer?) but as a fan, I JUST DON'T LIKE WHAT THEY DID TO TAEMIN. THEY CLEARLY WENT OVERBOARD. It does not look like a dreamy/French boy concept or Marie Antoinette inspired anymore. My sister (after hearing my screams) came hurrying to my side and after taking a quick look at the pictures, even stated that they look like softcore porn. And then I just kind of sobbed on her shoulder.

On the bright side, it's my first time seeing Taemin shirtless:

i fucking refuse to touch the other picture so this will have to do

Fuck his skin looks so soft and he's so skinny and what the hell, he has the body of a fifteen-year old or maybe someone even younger. And his hair's pretty.

I seriously don't know anymore. My world is now in shambles. Is this real life?

It doesn't help that my Tumblr dashboard is filled with tons of edits of the same pictures.

I don't exactly hate it, but I can't say I like it either.  And I have never reacted so strongly to a photo of Taemin (or anything Taemin-related, for that matter) like this before. I was ready to roll on the floor and curse whoever made him do this.

....

Still, I am excited for the comeback.
