SHINee Taemin's past live stream has come to light after SM Entertainment revealed his mental health concerns.

On January 14, Taemin was transferred from active to reservist military duties because of his worsening depression and panic disorder, and he'll now be carrying out his mandatory military service as a public service worker. 

The SHINee member's statements during a live stream in April of last year are coming back to light. During the live stream, which took place before his military enlistment, he said, "Thank you for always being with me when I'm lonely and having a hard time. I think this job suits me well. I'm a person who wants to be loved a lot."

Taemin allegedly looked as if he was holding back tears as he said, "Did I give you strength? It's not a sad thing, but why do I feel sad," adding, "I'm worried, scared, and anxious about the future. I'm happy when I look back. I'm lonely when I look back. I think a lot of things happened."

What do you think of Taemin's past statements?

All Taemin has done since he was so young was to perform. Its his first time doing anything else (going to the military). It must be rough. I hope our maknae is doing better and wish for good health. take care of yourselves everybody

Some people aren’t meant for military service and even training for it can just be to much stress for some it isn’t a bad thing definitely not something for him to beat himself up about. I hope it gets better for him as a public service worker.
