Fans of SHINee's Taemin have been officially named "TAEMate," distinguishing themselves from the boy band's main fandom, SHINee World.

The inception of TAEMate coincides with Taemin's debut as a solo artist under his new label, Big Planet Made, following the end of his 16-year contract with SM Entertainment in March. Taemin will continue his activities with SHINee under SM Entertainment.

The fan club's name and logo were unveiled through Taemin's social media pages on Wednesday at noon.

According to Big Planet Made in a press release, TAEMate combines the singer's name with the word "mate," symbolizing Taemin's closest and dearest friends.

Membership for the TAEMate club will be available for purchase from next Monday to June 2, with specific details to be announced later via social media.

Taemin debuted as a member of SHINee under SM Entertainment in May 2008 with "Replay" (2008). Known for hits such as "Ring Ding Dong" (2009), "Lucifer" (2010), "Sherlock" (2012), and "Dream Girl" (2013), he was the first SHINee member to pursue a solo career. Taemin released his first EP, "Ace," featuring the lead track "Danger," in August 2014. He has since produced hits including "Move" (2017), "Criminal" (2020), and "Guilty" (2023).

Recently, Taemin performed at the Fansland Web3.0 Music Festival in Bangkok over the weekend.
