In the post, 'The Celebrity' started off stating that Jonghyun was very hands-on throughout the pictorial unlike many others and even asked questions such as, "What kind of poses would look the best?" and "Does the hair and outfit match the atmosphere of the studio?" Not only was Jonghyun an idol and an artist, but he was �a borderline perfectionist when it came to his work.

When the idol was asked about his weight and the stress that he had to endure while preparing for his solo debut�with his album 'BASE', Jonghyun said, "I enjoy getting stressed. I'm more of the type to bully myself. I get stressed because I want a perfect result, knowing that it won't be perfect. I don't think that it's a bad thing. Negative feelings such as inferiority can become a motivation."�

In addition to revealing that he is especially hard on himself when it comes to his work and 'controlling' his feelings, Jonghyun added that his solo debut album includes everything that he has experienced while being in the music industry.�

Jonghyun said, "I won't be able to leave out SHINee when talking about my life and music. More than half the time I was building my career in music, I was with SHINee, and the reason why I have the opportunity to grow and experiment was because of SHINee. I didn't see why I had to remove SHINee's color in my solo album. 'BASE' includes everything that I am [including SHINee]."�
