SHINee’s TAEMIN Updates Fans on Twitter Account 3 Days before his Military Discharge

SHINee’s TAEMIN updates SHAWOLS (SHINee’s fandom) on SHINee’s Twitter account with new hashtags and photos! The hashtags posted today further continues TAEMIN’s military discharge countdown:

#TAEMINisback_D3

#TAEMINisback_D3태민

The “D3태민” includes the number of days, that is, 3 days remaining to TAEMIN’s military discharge.  Interestingly, TAEMIN’s name in the Korean language (태민) is also included after the number 3, which implies that TAEMIN’s name is repeated three times.  This familiar repetition of TAEMIN’s name is often heard when fans are either wishing for good luck or cheering TAEMIN on while performing.  

In addition, TAEMIN posted a selfie that shows off his cute baby face looks.  The second photo is of TAEMIN in his second SM boy group SuperM’s “Better Days” live performance.  This photo may imply that TAEMIN’s military discharge is part of TAEMIN’s ‘better days’ ahead as he resumes his K-pop idol career. It is also ‘better days’ for SHAWOLS as they can look forward to enjoying more music from TAEMIN. 

Lastly, the thread posted on SHINee’s account has 3 photos of TAEMIN’s adorable new cat, and its name may possibly be “Daengdaengi” (댕댕이) which means puppy.  At present, however, TAEMIN has not confirmed the name of his new cat.
