SHINee’s Taemin to sing duet with Girls’ Generation's Taeyeon for 'Advice' album: ‘Legends here to save K-pop’

K-pop group SHINee’s talented crooner Taemin has been teasing his fans about his third mini-album ‘Advice.’ On May 3, he had shared an exciting teaser for the album at midnight KST. While his ardent fans eagerly waited for the album to drop, a new update made them go crazy on Twitter.

It was the announcement that Taemin will be joining hands with Girls’ Generation's Taeyeon for a duet, as reported by All Kpop.

Taemin and Taeyeon’s dreamy collab

Taemin, whose new project is cited as his comeback, will also feature Girls’ Generation's Taeyeon in a duet. The song has been titled ‘If I Could Tell You’ which will keep the fans hooked with electronic piano and synth sounds, topped with Taemin and Taeyeon's lovely harmonization on the vocals.

The R&B number is apparently a song about the growing feelings of love between two friends who are about to cross the line into something more in their relationship. Taemin’s ‘Advice’ is slated to hit the Internet on May 18 at 6 PM KST and will be stacked with five other songs.  

Taemin has proved to be a promising artist off-late especially after he was crowned as the 'Idol's Idol' for his consistent success and impact on the K-pop industry. He had dropped his debut album ‘Ace’ in 2014 and his latest ‘Never Gonna Dance Again’ peaked at number one on the Gaon Album chart with act 1 and number two with the second part respectively.

Taemin is getting enlisted in the military on May 31. He will return by the end of November 2022.  The South Korean singer-songwriter, actor, and dancer debuted as a member of the group SHINee in May 2008 at the age of 14.  He kick-started his acting career in 2009 with MBC's comedy show ‘Tae-Hee, Hye-Kyo, Ji-Hyun’.
