The Korea Times

Taemin, a member of K-pop band SHINee, is set to release a new solo album in Korea next month, his management agency said Tuesday.
The 26-year-old will drop his new mini-album “WANT” on major local music streaming sites on February 11. “WANT” has seven tracks mixing different genres fronted by the title track WANT, said SM Entertainment.
K-pop star Key of SHINee is keen to show his ‘FACE’ as a solo artist
The label did not disclose further details, but hinted that Taemin will continue to “push the limits of K-pop and show off his low-key sexiness”.
The album follows his second studio album “MOVE”, which was released in October 2017.

Taemin went solo in August 2014 with his mini-album “ACE”, six years after he made his debut on SHINee. Since then, he has released two full-length albums in Korea and two mini-albums in Japan.
He has showcased strong vocal skills accompanied by edgy performances in previous hits such as Danger, Press Your Number and MOVE.

Taemin recently completed a tour of Japan, where he held 32 sold-out shows from September to November. His first full-length Japanese album, “TAEMIN”, topped Oricon’s albums chart in November.
His album comes on the heels of his SHINee bandmates enlisting in the military. Band leader Onew already enrolled in December, Minho is expected to enlist by the end of summer, and Key will begin his service on March 4 as a member of a military band, SM Entertainment said on January 25.
Before Key signs up, however, he will stage his first solo concert “THE AGIT: KEY LAND – KEY” in February.
