Members

Image and artistry

Shinee is known for their fashion style, created by designer Ha Sang-beg (하상백), which features high-top sneakers, skinny jeans and colorful sweaters.[116] Their style has created a fashion trend amongst students which the media dubbed the "SHINee Trend".[2] The groups "boyish charm" was an important factor for Shinee to gain fans especially females, young and adult. Even after many years, Shinee still have supporters in their late 20's, which is also thanks to their successful debut single Replay which targets the older female demographic with its line "Nuna (older sister), you’re so pretty".[117] With the release of 2009, Year of Us Shinee's style became more mature, though still contained Shinee's unique image. Furthermore instead of working with famous artists and photographers, SM Entertainment's Visual and Art Directing department usually works with up-and-coming talents with new ideas for Shinee's concepts.[118] When Shinee debuted in 2008 with Replay, it was not only their music which gained attention but also their colorful style - especially their colorful skinny jeans but even 4 years later, in 2012, Shinee maintained their colorful concept, for Sherlock.[117] Their designer Ha Sang-beg stated in an interview with the Korean Times: "Much has evolved over the years, since I change their styles to reflect their music. The feel from their debut single still exists, mixing the overground (sic) with the underground, haute couture with street fashion ... but it is very modern, like Shinee.” [117]

According to the media, Shinee are known for their good vocal performances and complex choreographies but also for an unique kind of music that is quite different from usual Kpop. At S.M. Entertainment’s showcase in New York last October 2011, Jon Caramanica of the New York Times summarized them as "the most ambitious" of the evening and also complimented the group strong vocal performance. Furthermore he stated: "Their music, especially Replay, Ring Ding Dong and Juliette, felt the riskiest, even if it only slightly tweaked that polyglot K-pop formula".[119]

Other ventures

Endorsements

During their early career Shinee were endorsers for several brands such as the cosmetic brand Nana's B[120] and the sports brand Reebok.[121] In their later years they endorsed the clothing brand Maypole[122][123][124][125] as well as the popular Korean cosmetic brands like Etude House[126][127][128] and The Saem.[129] In 2012 Etude House’s Lash Pump 3-Step Volume-Cara, a PC-based and mobile micro-sites featured “doll eyelashes” advertising main model, Sandara Park and Shinee, appearing as puppets, was awarded the first place for Movile Marketing and Product Promotions categories at the “9th Web Award Korea”.[130] The group was also part of the popular Korean comic, "The Blade of the Phantom Master" for a new webtoon series titled "ENT".[131] Furthermore the group endorsed the sports brand Skechers [132] and collaborated with Naver and Skechers for t-shirts and caps designed by the group members.[133][134][135]

Philanthrophy

The groups were joined by the United Nation's Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon, in the "Help African Children" project co-organized by the Korean Red Cross Society and the Korean UNICEF committee.[136]

On June 20, 2012, Donika Sterling, a fan of the group who became afflicted with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, which gradually causes the loss of muscle tissue and slows down parts of the body, was invited by S.M. Entertainment and was able to meet the group in person. The boys brought gifts for her including stuffed animals, a photo book, and other Shinee memorabilia. Furthermore Taemin gifted her his own bracelet. In the end the boys performed her favorite song for her, 'Ring Ding Dong'.[137] Shinee member Taemin stated, "I was glad to hear about Donika coming to Korea to meet us. We were extremely touched after hearing her say that our music gave her strength.
