One of the members of SHINee, Taemin, successfully held a concert titled “Ephemeral Gaze” at the Tennis Indoor Senayan, Jakarta, on Saturday (October 26, 2024). Promoted by iMe Indonesia, this concert marks Taemin’s first solo concert in Indonesia.
In front of TAEMate (the name of Taemin’s fans) who were present, the singer of “Move” expressed his happiness to be back in Jakarta, especially since it had been nearly 8 years since his last concert, although he did perform for a private TV station’s anniversary in 2018.

Taemin opened the “Ephemeral Gaze” concert energetically with the song “Deja Vu.” His appearance on stage left fans in awe, as he showcased a mysterious style while wearing a black mask.
After performing energetically for three songs, Taemin greeted all of his fans. “Where are you guys? Awesome!” Taemin said fluently in Indonesian, which made the atmosphere among the TAEMate in the venue even more electrifying. Moreover, Taemin also expressed how happy he was to return to Jakarta after eight years.
“I came here in 2014 and 2016 for concerts. That means it has been eight years, and now I meet you all again. I feel very happy,” he revealed.

What made the fans particularly flustered was that before coming to Indonesia, he checked the weather here. Unlike the cold weather in Korea, Indonesia was hot. However, according to Taemin, the TAEMate are even “hotter.”
“So actually, it’s very cold in Korea now. So I looked up the weather in Indonesia, and it turned out to be hot. Were you guys waiting outside? Was it too hot? But you guys are very hot,” Taemin continued.
Not only that, but Taemin also referred to Indonesian TAEMate as “kiyowo,” which in Indonesian means adorable, making the fans even more flustered. Previously, Taemin himself had been referred to as kiyowo by the fans.
Indonesian TAEMate were very enthusiastic throughout the event, and seeing the tremendous energy from his fans, Taemin promised to return to Indonesia. He also expressed his gratitude.
Additionally, the fan project video made Taemin feel even more loved by Indonesian fans. “I will try to come here more often. I will also strive to be an artist who continues to inspire you all. Thank you, Indonesian fans,” said Taemin.
Interestingly, during this opportunity, Taemin also asked the present TAEMate to come again if he returns in the future. Taemin even said “Janji” (Promise) in Indonesian while showing his pinky finger.
“Janji… Janji… Janji,” Taemin said.
