To still see a legendary 2nd gen group like Shinee mentioned amongst 10 of their 3rd and 4th gen hoobaes says a lot. The boys are always a charming and welcoming presence in the music industry with every comeback. They really set the standard and inspired these amazingly talented junior groups. Shinee always shining no matter how much time passes. 🤗💖
