SHINee's KEY is releasing 'Edited by KEY,' a video series in which he personally participated in the editing, through the official YouTube channel 'SHINee.' Rather than focusing on his stage presence, the videos offer fans new scenes by following the atmosphere, colors, and movements KEY perceives in his daily life and specific spaces.

KEY's YouTube: SHINee Edited by KEY #1

Released via the official YouTube channel 'SHINee'

'Edited by KEY' is a video series where KEY captures his own perspective through camera work and editing. Rather than prioritizing stage performances and promotional footage like traditional artist promotional videos, the series focuses on what the individual known as KEY sees and what kind of moods he reacts to.

KEY's personal taste is evident in the flow of the videos and the transitions between cuts. His approach to selecting light, shadows, and momentary movements entering through the lens reveals his intention not to remain merely as a subject.

Direct editing captured in 'Edited by KEY #1'

The series title 'Edited by KEY #1' clearly indicates that this is the first work completed through KEY's own hands. The scenes in the video are composed based on the aesthetic elements he has typically paid attention to, providing fans with the experience of closely sharing the scenes as seen through the artist's eyes.

KEY has built his own unique character not only through musical activities and performances but also across various other fields. This video series serves as a project that demonstrates how that sensibility manifests within the medium of video.

Fan communication extending to SHINee WORLD Official

Currently, SHINee operates various social media channels including YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok. On Weverse, they meet with fans through 'SHINee WORLD Official.'

'Edited by KEY' is also being released to fans within these channel activities. The scenes and rhythms personally selected by KEY remain as a record that conveys the artist's perspective outside the stage more closely to the fans.
