SHINee member Key drew attention again when additional posts were made on his North America tour social media as his agency remained silent amid controversy surrounding comedian Park Na-rae's 'Jusaimo.' Fans demanding protection for the artist and an explanation are also raising their voices.
On the 14th, Key's appearances during his North American tour were released as photos on SHINee's official social media. In the photos, Key was immersed in the stage backstage at the concert and later commemorated the moment by taking photos with fans and staff gathered at the venue after the performance.
Fans who could not attend the concert made guesses about Key's North America tour from the photos. In addition to SHINee team stages, the outfits that strongly emphasized the unique concept seen only in Key's solo stages drew even more attention.
However, SHINee fans found it hard to simply enjoy the concert atmosphere. That is because suspicions related to 'Jusaimo' targeting Key continue to be raised.
'Jusaimo' is a person accused of providing illegal medical procedures to Park Na-rae. A middle-aged woman, she was initially known as a beauty entrepreneur running a large dermatology clinic. But as Park Na-rae has been involved in disputes with former managers, she was mentioned in connection with allegations of illegal medical practices.
In particular, she is known to be from a non-existent 'ghost medical school' called Inner Mongolia Pujiang Medical University in China, and she is a figure who cannot be officially verified by any medical organizations in Korea such as the Korean Medical Association Organization or the Korean Nursing Association (KNA). As it became clear that her background and medical license could not be confirmed, A also deleted all personal social media posts, fueling suspicion.
The problem is that photos and videos suggesting that 'Jusaimo' boasted a friendship of more than 10 years with SHINee member Key are spreading through social media and various online communities. Before deletion, videos on social media reportedly showed 'Jusaimo' entering Key's home and appearing to interact familiarly with his pets Komde and Garçon.
Among these, there were claims that 'Jusaimo' said she received Key's album by courier and said, "I brought it first when the album came out," and conversation logs showing what appeared to be SHINee member Key replying, "Thanks, really ㅠㅠ," and receiving an expensive luxury necklace as a gift also spread. Additionally, photos alleging that SHINee member Key attended 'Jusaimo's' daughter's first birthday party have also circulated.
Regarding the series of controversies, neither SHINee member Key nor agency SM Entertainment has issued a separate "official position" and have remained silent. This stance contrasts with Key's usual image of being assertive in self-expression on various broadcasts and content, which has left fans more anxious. Amid speculation, fans are waiting for a single word from Key. They hope to dispel unnecessary worries and that he will remain the ever-reliable key. <
