Motivation, where are you?
Ugh. I’m treating translations like homework. On Friday I said I’d do them tomorrow now it’s Monday and Monday’s 1/2 done and I haven’t started.

Japanese Mag More. Where the hell is this scan?
Blah blah blah
Whatever I said before was wrong and I’ve now translated the scan!
And all it says is:
In movies about love stories and so on, you can feel the change of season on your skin. [1]
The “temperature” of songs is (like that).
[1] This phrase means “know from experience”

Question: What were each other’s first impressions? Taemin: “Jonghyun was very handsome and on top of that, I was astonished at how good he was at singing.” Jonghyun: “Taemin back then was probably more mature than now.”

In the dressing room. The members are improving their concentration. What are these two happily looking at on the computer? Well, from their backs, who could it be? It’s easy huh?

SHINee Translation Excerpt: Hanako - Taemin
Taemin-kun speaks his mind about his interest in Miyazaki Hayao from before.
“Recently, I’ve been solely watching another two that I’m into. I love One Piece and Tennis no Oujisama (Prince of Tennis). Last night too, I watched those two then went to bed. Ah, I listened to a recording (after).”
During breaks from shooting too, he hummed a song from Tohoshinki, his seniors from his office, and...
Anonymous asked: You're very sure Taemin said covetous? I don't mean as in a translation error, but just, it is that word right, not perhaps some less intense adjective? I feel a little vindicated, I always thought he was a terrifying ball of ambition, lmao.

SHINee Magazine: Anan - Editor's Diary
Thanks to lovingbling for pointing this out~ <3
Random fact, my grandmother calls my cat (whose name is Key), Kiwi.
Note: Because Japanese and English work differently I had to re-arrange some of the sentences but the meaning is still there.

SHINee Translation Excerpt: Ray - Taemin
Dear Anon,
I did not forget you, in fact I downloaded several issues of Ray. But, Taemin’s is cut off so I can’t see questions 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7. Uh wait, isn’t that almost the entire thing? Why bother post? Well, I’ve given up on ever finding a good scan. Hopefully if anyone out there has one, this will encourage them to share it.

Summary? Key wears gay flashy clothing, Minho thinks men must know how to bring home the bacon, Jong is his usual adorable self and Onew doesn’t like when other people make puns!

SHINee Magazine Excerpt: Steady - Group Interview
The long-awaited first album is complete.
Soon the first album will be released right?
Taemin: Among those songs recorded, recording for Lucifer was the hardest.
Jonghyun: To match the Japanese lyrics, the rhythm was subtly changed too.

This is the first half.
Hmm, Key’s ears are good, but Onew’s are tuned towards hearing food-related words. Taemin doesn’t know that he’s STILL young?
If asked, “What is SHINee’s appeal?”, in a second (you’d say) it’s the captivating song and ultra-sensitive dance visuals! Speaking of their senpais [1], Tohoshinki and Shoujo Jidai, (as expected) this incredibleness...

SHINee Magazine Excerpt: Non-No (All members)
As usual, sorry for any errors or typos I missed. This is my 200th post. Thank you for the likes and reblogs and of course hi to the new followers. Even for those that I’ve just seen quote bits, it still makes me feel good to contribute. Were I Jonghyun, I think this is where I would shed a tear or two.
Aside from Asia, SHINee is garnering support in London, Paris, Europe and America....
