Incredibly thoughtful of him considering how triggering this must be. He’s experienced this type of loss first hand, and although they weren’t blood related he and Jonghyun were practically brothers. I still remember SHINEE’s early stories about the older members walking Taemin to school to help him with bullies…time really flies.
