SHINee's Onew Seen Giving Fish-Shaped Pastries outside SM Entertainment
SHINee's very caring leader Onew was spotted handing out bungeoppang (fish-shaped pastry), one of South Korea's most well-known winter street foods.
According to fans, the K-Pop idol was seen inside a food truck, which opened right outside the building of SM Entertainment. Numerous employees of the said agency were also there, lining up to taste Onew's handmade pastry. The fish-shaped snack is placed inside a small white paper bag with the artist's picture printed in front.
Besides the SM employees, fans also noticed that there were plenty of filming staff and cameras around the truck and in front of the idol. They speculate that Onew's food truck and pastry baking might be part of an upcoming reality show.
Right after giving bunggeoppang to all SM employees who lined up, the artist also got out of the truck carrying bags of pastries and adorably approached other people around SM Entertainment. Later on, Onew's fellow SHINee member Key was spotted dropping by to show his full support.
This year, Onew just got discharged from his military service on July 20, which is 12 days earlier than the original date in order to combat COVID-19. To celebrate his return, a picture of him dressed in army uniform was uploaded on SHINee's official Twitter account, with the caption, 'ONEW's BACK! Congratulations to SHINee's leader ONEW!'
Apart from that, the male idol wrote his fans a letter, which was posted on the group's official page. His letter reads, "SHINee World! How have you been? This is SHINee's leader Onew. Thank you for waiting for me while I was serving in the military. Let us try to meet more often. Let's have fun and sing together for a long time! Thank you!"
Before Onew enlisted for his mandatory military service, he released some albums and tracks along with the SHINee members. In May 2018, the K-Pop male group released a three-part Korean album entitled "The Story of Light. The first portion of the album was out on May 28 of the same year with the track "Good Evening, while the second part on June 11 with the song "I Want You. The last part of the album was launched on June 25, and it is called "Our Page.
On August 1, the Korean act released the Japanese renditions of "I Want You and "Good Evening alongside their fifteenth Japanese single "Sunny Side" and the same name's track. The lyrics of "Sunny Side were unveiled to be written by SHINee members.
In September 2018, two months before, Onew started his military service. The group unveiled their sixth album repackage, "The Story of Light-Epilogue, which is composed of all the songs from the past three albums and one new track called "Countless.
At present, SHINee still has no announced group activities. Key has only gotten back from his military service, while Minho reported that he has given up his final leave to take part in training together with his fellow soldiers. Meanwhile, Taemin is yet to enlist.
