He also used some Indonesian phrases, such as “mantap” and “apa kabar,” which excited the TAEMate fans. “Jakarta! Where’s the noise? Mantap! How are you, Jakarta? I’m Taemin. It’s been a long time since I was here in 2014, so I’m very excited today. You all have been waiting for me, right?” said Taemin. “So I came here in 2014 and 2016, and it’s been eight years, right?” he added.
Taemin continued his performance with songs that fans had been eagerly anticipating, such as “Goodbye,” “IDEA,” “Heaven,” “I’m Crying,” “Clockwork,” “The Unknown Sea,” “G.O.A.T,” and many more.
Born on July 18, 1993, Taemin appeared energetic throughout his performance, clearly wanting to give his best to his loyal fans. The fans were equally enthusiastic, cheering and waving their official Taemin light sticks.

During the concert, the SHINee maknae compared the weather in his hometown, Seoul, with Jakarta, noting how hot it was there. “Right now, it’s very cold in Korea, but it’s hot in Jakarta. Did you guys sweat waiting outside? But you are the hotter ones,” he teased the audience. During a video fan project, Taemin’s eyes glistened as he watched TEAMet Indonesia’s project. “Thank you for making beautiful memories,” he said. Seeing the support and enthusiasm from fans, Taemin promised to return and asked TEAMet to promise to watch him again.
As the concert neared its end, Taemin said goodbye to his fans, expressing gratitude for the night full of sweet memories in Jakarta. “Thank you for waiting for me, supporting me, and loving me with that unwavering love. I truly love you all, and I’m grateful,” he stated.
Taemin then promised he would come back to Jakarta. The fans were thrilled to hear his desire to return for another concert. “I will also try to come here more often. I will work hard to be an artist who can inspire you,” said Taemin. “Thanks to you, I can gain energy and beautiful memories. Are you all happy now? Next time (at the concert), will you come again? Promise?” he concluded.
