Taemin interlude.
The performance video for Taemin’s Japanese single “Famous” just came out a few minutes ago and for once I am thankful that jet lag has me awake for this. I could watch him dance all the live-long day, folks.
I would never say folks in real life. I don’t know why I wrote that.
Anyway in other Taemin news, a few weeks ago there was a rumor that his agency, SM, was putting together a supergroup consisting of members of various boy groups like EXO and NCT. Taemin’s name was dropped in that rumor mill as well so my ears perked for real. I guess he was spotted with 6 others leaving one of SM’s practice rooms but some people pointed out that maybe there was going to be a one-time collaboration stage at the upcoming SMTown event in Japan.
But yesterday, SM announced that the rumors were truth–they are debuting a supergroup consisting of Taemin (OMG why am I crying while I’m writing this let’s just chalk it up to exhaustion) from SHINee, Kai and Baekhyun from EXO (crying again lol), Mark and Taeyong from NCT, and TEN (!!!!!!!
) and Lucas from WayV, the NCT Chinese subunit.
All of these artists are fucking gold but you’re telling me that I’m getting a chance to see Taemin and Ten perform together in the same unit?!
I can’t even handle this.
Their name is SuperM (not stoked on that name though) and they’re expected to have a US debut (!!!!!) in October.
If this means there will potentially be a tour…no, I can’t even get my hopes up.
Photo cred: SM Entertainment.
This is the teaser that was shown at a Capitol Records event yesterday and I am actually shaking.
The talent in this group is sickening.
That’s all I have for now. It’s finally late enough in the morning for me to start getting ready for work and I’m gonna roll in to the office on an imaginary people-mover made up of my current kpop high.

Taemin-ah is my secret bias ever since he touched that thing he was not supposed to, and fuck yeah, he is a great dancer, wow! His English accent is so cute!
