SHINee Key's Candid Admission About Age Sparks Concern — 'I'm afraid of becoming...'

In a sincere and revealing encounter, SHINee's Key recently sat down with Hyeri for a heart-to-heart conversation, shedding light on his fears and vulnerabilities.

The discourse unfolded in a video titled 'Key oppa really came to make fun of me,' released on Hyeri's YouTube channel, 'Hyeon's Club.'

Navigating Challenges: 'Nolto' and the Competitive Spirit

During the conversation, Hyeri probed Key about his experiences filming 'Amazing Saturday' (referred to as 'Nolto'), particularly delving into moments of anger on set. Key shared the unique atmosphere, where he felt the odd one out if he expressed strong emotions.

Reflecting on the challenges, he credited the 'Nolto' production crew for protecting the cast, acknowledging that without their support, the team might not be broadcasting today.

Key also unveiled his competitive spirit, expressing how minor irritations during afternoon recordings can stir his competitive nature unexpectedly.

Program Loyalty and Career Reflections: 'Nolto' vs. 'I Live Alone'
