SHINee’s Key recently shared the heartfelt reason behind his tears after his solo song topped the charts.

On the October 11 episode of KBS 2TV’s The Seasons - Lee Young-ji’s Rainbow, Key, who just finished his solo activities with “Pleasure Shop,” was a guest on the show.

Host Lee Young-ji commented on his emotional moment, saying, "When you won first place on a music program and cried, I almost cried too. It’s really touching to see someone who deserves to be first actually achieve it without taking it for granted."

In a video clip from the episode, Key couldn’t hold back his tears of gratitude, saying, "It's not easy to receive first place at my level, so I’m really thankful. I will keep working hard because this is my profession. Thank you."

When Lee Young-ji asked about the meaning behind his tears, Key opened up about his journey. He said, "It's been three years since I achieved first place as a solo artist, and I was so happy that tears came out without me realizing it. The team has always had great vision and done well, but I was concerned that my standing was too low compared to the brand value of the team. So, I’ve been trying really hard to align with that, and now it feels more achievable. It’s fun."

Key's heartfelt words show how much this achievement means to him, as he works to carve out his own path while staying true to the legacy of SHINee.
