Following the broadcast of the 'God's Life Special' and the 'God's Tteokbokki' restaurant, we had a time to look back at the memories and reputation of SHINee members. Honestly, I thought I only knew SHINee because of 'Key', but I know more of their songs than I expected.

With so many hit songs, while watching the broadcast, I wondered if it's not about what song they sing at the 'NolMwoDaeFestival', but rather how they'll amaze the audience with their performance. Their passion on stage is truly remarkable, unlike any other group. I think that aspect will be a major talking point when the 'NolMwoDaeFestival' performance is revealed. I congratulate and look forward to SHINee's comeback as the 'Passion Dol' and their participation in the 'NolMwoDaeFestival'.
