Guess who’s got them screaming at Abbey Road today (update)
mainI passed the studios at 11 this morning and there were a few hundred fans outside. When returned a five there were well over 1,000, mostly teenaged girls, cameras at the ready and shrieking at the first sign of anyone emerging from the entrace.
‘Who’s in?’ I asked.
‘Shinee,’ said a helpful girl.
‘Shiny who?’
Biggest boy band in Korea, apparently.
Back at my desk I can hear the shrieking half a mile away.
A SHINee (correct spelling) fan site has asked me to use a more recent picture of the group. Here goes:
Wow, it seems that fans were really dedicated, right? Those fans weren’t allowed in because access to it was previously determined through a Japanese mobile contest. SHINee was in Abbey Road Studios to celebrate their official debut in Japan, to be held on June 22nd.
Thank you for taking even the slightest interest in them!
you should listen to their songs!
they are amazing! ^^
Thank you for posting this!
SHINee is the first Asian artist to ever perform at Abbey Roads, so it was definitely a big deal. Plus this is the first time any Korean group has performed in England, so the fans were so thrilled to just get a glimpse of the group. Amazing group, really!
Oh actually a most recent picture of them is this: http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/696/26009120876557249961820y.jpg
It’s from their rehearsal at Abbey Roads Studios from the 19th! And the name is actually “SHINee”
Really happy you even took the least interest in them 🙂
Ahhh I thought there are some comments about their music oh well.. never mind! At least you take time to write something about them ^^~
SHINee, a boy band from Korea consist Lee Jinki aka Onew (Leader, lead singer, backing-vocal), Kim Jonghyun aka Jonghyun (Lead singer, backing-vocal), Kim Kibum aka Key (Rapper, backing-vocal), Choi Minho aka Minho (Rapper, backing-vocal) and Lee Taemin aka Taemin (lead singer, backing-vocal). They debuted in the year 2008 and their first single was “Replay”.
For SHINee’s fans they call themselves “SHINee World” aka “SHAWOL”
I don’t know what else I should write more lol. So I should stop there hehe.

Well not the ‘biggest boy band in Korea”. But still famous nonetheless.
I’m sure that you probably have very little interest in kpop, but to make a slight correction to your blog entry, SHINee isn’t the biggest boy band in Korea. Not even close, in fact. Other boy bands, such as TVXQ, Big Bang and Super Junior have a much, much larger fan base in both Korea and other Asian countries. SHINee does have a very dedicated, young fan base, however, which is understandable as the average age of SHINee members is 19-20. I suppose they are the Korean equivalent of Justin Bieber in that aspect.
On behalf of us Shawols (name of SHINee’s fanclub) we would like to thank you for posting this. They are truly amazing boys and we hope more people get to know them and fall in love with them like we have. Yesterday made history for our boys as the first asian artists to perform in the Abbey and we are soo proud of them and how far they have come.
Hopefully, you will check out their music in your spare time and like them too 😀

Do take more interest in them because they are amazing enough to be the first Asian artist to perform in the legendary Abbey Road Studio!
