This is a very comforting and bittersweet as a final bookend to recently passed Korean idol Jonghyun’s life and career. His agency SM Entertainment has announced that it will be releasing the already recorded solo tracks Jonghyun laid down before his passing a month ago on December 18, 2017. The mini-album is titled “Poet/Artist“, so fitting for this sensitive and talented young man with the soul of a poet and the work of an artist. All proceeds will be donated to charity, and in the meantime his group SHINee has announced that it will forge ahead with all scheduled performances and events as a now 4-member group as Jonghyun would have wanted and a tribute to his legacy. Also fitting is to see Jonghyun selected in the 27th spot of the TC Candler 2017 list of Most Beautiful Faces in the men’s list. Hopefully his family, friends, and fans will take solace in all these positive remembrances of Jonghyun. Continue reading
