Happy Birthday Minho <3

18 Year ago, on this very day, 9th of December, a special baby boy was born. He always dreamt of becoming a star when he grew up, still, he worked hard in his studies, help his mother do the housework, and sang his lungs out in the shower XD (just kidding~) In 2006, his chance finally came, SM Entertainment's yearly 'Casting System' had came and Minho joined it hopping that his talent would be discovered.

His charms attracted the judges of the audition and so began his road to Stardom. Working hard along the way, training day & night, being in CFs, music Videos, even Modeling before debut, until today, Minho has became a member of one of the most loved boy groups in Korea! =DD

Well, he's now in Canada filming Go! Go! Dream Team season 2, so lets sing Happy Birthday so loud that he can hear us all the way from Vancouver! ^^

Through a phone call with Newsen on the 2nd, SM Entertainment has confirmed, "He took a test on the 1st and it revealed that he is now fully recovered from swine flu."

Regarding the success of 'Ring Ding Dong' and how SHINee could not perform this hit song together as much, because of the flu, the SME representative stated, "We have been adjusting their schedules, because the members' health comes first. Also, after we received confirmation of Jonghyun and Onew's recovery, we cleansed everything in their house."

Congratulations to Taemin on his recovery! Now fans will be able to enjoy 'Ring Ding Dong' performed by the whole SHINee.

Jonghyun recovered from H1N1 but Onew is sick

The curse of the swine flu seems to have struck SHINee. Having only just reported hours earlier that Jonghyun had recovered fully from swine flu, it was reported now that SHINee's leader, Onew has also been hit by it.

The announcement came at around 6pm on 7th November as it was reported that Onew had developed a gentle, mild fever last night. He was sent to the hospital today and tests have shown that he has contracted swine flu.

Onew has been prescribed Tamiflu and is now back home resting.

The other three SHINee members, Key, Minho and Taemin were also tested for precaution, and neither of them have shown any symptoms of the illness fortunately.

So despite welcoming Jonghyun back from illness, SHINee will perform as a 4-member group in Onew's absence on the 8th November episode of Inkigayo.
