Last month, Taemin released his latest mini-album ‘Eternal’. Speaking to NME, the SHINee singer opened up about his decision to move to new label Big Planet Made after over a decade at SM Entertainment: “For any person who is safe and stable inside a fence, they’re bound to find themselves lagging in terms of [their own] growth and development.”
“Like when you’ve been living with your family and move out once you’re an adult. I think that was the trigger for me [to move to a new company],” he adds. “I mean, I could have just stayed comfortably inside that fence, but I’ve always been the kind of person who takes on challenges.”
