^^

i wont, dont worry

i ship them so hard too

 

 

damn how to become taemin? kai seems really really loves him omg

glad im not alone

 

Jongin didnt want to let Taemin go...awww

 

 

Hello I'm pooh:D

Since Taemin is my bias and kai is just adorable, I ship them:)

I love how taemin keeps teasing kai about the mama dance 

Taekai at the end of video:)

welcome aboard...stay update ya! i'm aya btw and i ship them soo hard. -i dont really like the idea of them with other members, dont blame me. taekai is adorable tho-

 

 

Why am I a Taekai hardcore shipper?

Because they can see how special Taemin is in Kai's eyes. Kai always looks at Taemin when they are on same stage.

They have a lot of same habbits.

Kai looks more active with Taemin more than any members in EXO

 

Do you know "Eru"? She is a Taekai shipper too, she draw a lot of Taekai fanart. Kai used her gifts with Taemin.

 

Kai wore this gift 2 times.

Eru sent white one for Taemin and black one for Kai!!! Kai also used another sweater from Eru.

yeah they fit each other, looks like youre observing kai's reactions with other members very well. i love kai, and i also noticed the way kai reacting towards his members are really different when hes with taemin. about eru, probably all taekai shipper know her. i mean, shes talented and friendly too. have you talk to her? shes very humble. the fact that shes korean makes me happier. she can keep us update with taekai news.

 

i want kai and taemin know about us. she did tell them about her fansite didnt she? i wonder what they think if they know people ship them together...

 

 

this seems off topic but im really mad with some immature shipper. theres a lot of this kaisoo-2min-taekai thingy going on around twitter and tumblr. everybody in this fandom have a right to ship their bias with anybody they like but somehow i dont understand why they are overreacting with this whole issue. i feel so hopeless as taekai shipper. they seems to really enjoying mocking my ship. im sorry, i just want to vent my frustrations here.

They know about Taekai stuffs because Eru mentioned about Taekai with Moonkyu in twitter many times and one of their bff, Kwonho, knows about Taekai too. LOL

 

Don't care about others!!! Like Kaisoo shippers, I don't agree if someone said them "fake or fanservice" but I believe that Kai just respects D.O like a good hyung...I believe Taekai more! :x

 

Let's talk about this gif!!!

 

i stalk their conversation actually. they both such a sweetheart, they responded to each eru's tweet and even moonkyu posted her fanart in his instagram. when kai and kwonho came visited taemin in wgm, i just felt like laughing at kwonho's every reaction, hes such a powerless guy in front of taekai. if moonkyu was there with them, i dont know what will he do to get taemin attention back to kai..lolz...

 

omg youre the first taekai shipper i've known who actually say that aloud! ya know, they hated to be called twins, yet fans still claiming them as twins - im sick of their ignorance- and some even said, they cant ship taekai because theyre brothers -what the hell was that, such a lame excuses- but what saddened me the most is when they found out that thier fav pairing look alike, they easily claimed that their pairing is real and long-time lover...i cant believe it! they surely need to learn that taekai is not blood related and taekai also deserve all the equality like other OTP have.

 

i posted the link in tumblr how can i forget about it....i was shocked the first time i watched the vid. kai's hand a little too low, i think

by the way they touch each other, i think their skinship are really natural. their friendship bond is so strong since they had known each other for a long time. they maybe had done more than that and get used to it already. im just curious why they never release their selca together. something seems really off putting. kai have bunch of photos with exo members but none with Taemin? thats weird.

 

 

-moment before the infamous butt slapping-

their hug

i just compile the gifs together. too lazy to separate all the scenes...lmao

[jongie~]

 

 

My parents tell me that when you love someone a lot, you look alike =))) because you have same habbits...and many lovers look alike.

 

 

we don't have a lot of selcas but we still had many their predebut photos that proved their strong relationship.

We have Kwonho, who is their bff, who understand Taekai a lot.

Maybe I'm just delutional but I think Kai introduced Kwonho for Taemin because Kwonho is not an idol.

 

Honestly, I really want to see a photo of Taekai before Taemin debuted. :( They were really innocent, young and pure at that time and I hope we can see it! But I'm too greedy! :(

 

Taekai is underrated because Taemin is in SHINee and Kai is in EXO. They don't have many interactions like Kai with EXO members (Kaisoo, Sekai,..) or Taemin with SHINee (2min,..) but all their interactions are so precious to us because we believe in Taekai's love :x

keep calm and ship Taekai!!!!

none of your statements stated delusional, just random wild thinking which occasionally hit me too. im not gonna deny it cause i sincerely ship them with all my heart, once they broke, i will step back immediately - just the same thing i've done to yunjae, my love for them is undeniably strong- but my friend told me that i love taekai a lot more...what to do, theyre cuties!

 

same goes to our believes! and the scientific research even proved the right of the look alike couple, they tend to have long-lasting relationship. this definitely not applied only for brotherhood relationship, but also lovers...just sometimes people tend to overlook. whatever it is, i would like taekai to continue their friendship and their precious moments sure lasted till years to come.

 

i think kwonho is so innocent, kai kinda look like badass to me, he was trying to hit kwonho without clear reason! haha...and kwonho looked so afraid of him -poor boy- maybe or maybe not, lets just wait and see what they will tell us about their friendship. a lot of random photos of them hang out together and some photos of taekai meeting secretly-wearing hoodies and mask to cover their face, whatever-. I heard kai have many taemin's pic in his phone. now its time to release it, dont you think so? Im dying to see their pics! -forever curious about countless of couple shirts they wore- its okay to feel greedy, i want to see their old pic too!

 

cross pairing will never get a chance to stand alone. i just feel lucky that taekai have their own fanbase, fansites and dedicated korean fans-i know some of them aside eru- also kai and taemin's own fansite which supported taekai, they know whats the best, lets keep calm and ship taekai ^-^

[jongie~]

Isn't that because kai became a trainee in 2007 and taemin debuted in 2008. They only had 1 year together when they were both trainees and Taemin was pretty busy then preparing to debut and all (I assume) 

not sure though.

what you said sure is true but they had known each other before they became sm trainee. but i didnt meant it to be specifically pre-debut pictures. you can take hundreds of picture with just one day and they havent yet to release anything. i think its weird when youre so close with that person yet you didnt have any attention to take pictures with them. you see, i just want to point out why kai didnt have any pictures with taemin - considering theyre always together-

 

 

We don't know! From what they said, Taemin is Kai's first friend and also Kai's dancing teacher when he came into SM in 2007. In radio show, Kai said that when he came into SM, he couldn't dance hip hop and Taemin was the best one there then they became friend because Taemin was really kind to help him.

 

Honestly, I think at that time, all trainess still trained normally. That's why Suho's rumor was one of SHINee members but he was injured and was replaced by Minho. I think SM never set a full list before one year. They have a final exam befor setting a full list to debut. They have many competition between trainees until the deadline.

 

In one year, they were busy but no doubt that they still could have friends too! And after debuting, they still kept their friendship.

 

Kai appeared in MV of DBSK in 2008. It means he was one of the best trainees at that time and I think they had more chances to keep their friendship.

There are a lot of rumors but one of facts: "Kai teased Taemin as his girlfriend,..." and I think SM trainees (the best trainees only) can have a good relationship with idols. (Suho with Kyuhyun, Suho with Jonghyun).

 

I don't know! Believe what we can see!

some even said kai didnt get along with other trainees because hes superior and special. so he normally befriended someone same level with him -maybe because he was friend with idols so trainee also looked at him differently, i also dont have any idea tho- its impossible to not have pictures together when Taemin himself said they had spend many times together. theres even rumor going around that they went to couple spa together-I dont know what to believe, rumors maybe just rumors ya know- taemin and kai is in the same group -dancing line- so probability of them met in just one year is really high...add to that, we dont know if theyre roommate before -like hunhan, although luhan is new, he was put together with sehun-. i'm pretty sure I heard somewhere that Taemin could have make it into exo if he didnt debut with shinee. I kinda agree with you. i discussed about this matter with my friend too.

[jongie~]

 

Yes, Kai! You have enough rights to hit Minho =))))) and grap Taemin's ears "cutely"

*whisper* Are you jealous to Minho??? =)))))

i need to watch the vid and see what's happening there. Kai just got enough of all the 2min moments....

in the fourth gif, what was Baek trying to do? he looks like he was trying to stop Taemin too?

[jongie~]

i see like...decent numbers of people following this thread but only few actually have a gut to post taekai related things.hopefully you guys keep posting, im really glad i found many taekai followers here.

 

taekai in their own world and chenshing machine creeping at the back..lol

the 4th gif, the way kai's finger slightly touching taem's nose and lip,

youre being impatient kai..tsk

you may proceed doing whatever you want backstage

[jongie~]

so touchy  so precious 

some people wanted taemin and kai to stop their skinship..how could they do that!fans just dont know how to appreciate the beauty of taekai ship

 

 

 

some more precious moments in golden disk awards...i will try to find the rest of HD pics in naver

credit to the owner;

 

 

 

 

 

 

[jongie~]

lmao that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. who on earth do they think they are to tell anyone who and who not they think they should touch? 

they just dont want taekai ruining their otp moment. they really annoyed me. why the heck they even went to taekai tag if their attention is just wanted to bash taekai for being overly touchy...i dont understand..they cant force taemin or kai to stop. and this one girl really pissed me off. she even told her friend that she's not shawol if she ship taekai instead of 2min...wtf

 

 

/ded/

could anyone give me the link of this fancam?

idiots  -_- they're not even worth acknowledging so let's ignore 

im trying my best to ignore them right now -_-

Edited January 18, 2014 by jongie~

[jongie~]

Do korean people goto hot springs? The SHINee members seemed like they were comfortable about going to hot springs together (like being naked around each other)...but I remember reading somewhere about how Kai was terrified after seeing Taemin's naked body. But its probably a "fact" made up by a fan or something:/

 

It's a poker face battle? I thought Onew was teasing Tae about being sleepy?

Korean also fond to the hot spring i think.and tae did said that he wanted to go to hot spring in japan. But im quite surprise when he actually go there with jongin.never took the fact seriously. I heard rumor going around before that taekai had gone to couple spa in jeju.jongin must be most comfortable around tae considering they grow up togeter. So, why would he feel terrible seeing tae naked? I donr see the logic in that tbh

[jongie~]

Does kai not open himself up easily or something?All the people on the forum talk about how Kai keeps to himself.

As for Taemin, I remember him saying he doesn't wear his clothes in the dorm, so I think hes fine with being naked around his friends...

 

apparently this is a pic on them on the plane?

 

if you ever take your time to  watch his fancam, hes always alone in his own world. seeing him with taemin like seeing the other side of him. his laughter and his gestures. ya know kai really isnt fond to skinship -sometimes he will do it with the other members but yeah- its so rare to see him actually initiated all the skinship unlike when hes with taemin. and he is very quiet person like he rather keep all his secret to himself. exo members once said its hard to understand kai at the first meeting cos of his attitude. he is more open towards taemin -im not sayin this cos i ship them, i dont know about taekai at first honestly, its just my pov as kai bias-

TaeKai! Kai Taemin at one of train tunnel at Japan Y__Y

 

I can see Kai's

Anyway, I'm pretty sure that Kwonho with them now! Kwonho talked that he will go to Japan with his friends in his facebook (he talked with his girlfriend LOL)

are you sure? i read fanaccount saying only their manager accompany them -the 4th person is probably just a random guy- isnt kwonho already in army? maybe hes given out leave but 6days leave seems a bit too long, dont you think so?

[jongie~]

No, Kwonho tweeted a photo in his twitter =.= then he deleted it. He is not in army now, I guess! No one confirmed about his time for army! Maybe he will be later or he has a holiday or something. But he mentioned about trip in Japan in his twitter and his facebook.

I don't think they have a manager =.=. Fans don't know about Kwonho! :(

 

Sure that they are not alone, there is another guy with them! I guessed it's Kwonho

ahh...i thought they really going there with their manager(i mean taemin's manager) -its japan youre talking about, its hard to believe they dont need any tour guide to go there- if its true kwonho also going there, then im happy too.

 

 

At the beginning I was a Kaisoo shipper but recently it's more obvious taekai and sudo ships :(

hey, i like sudo...from the very beginning..i think theyre really close. suho actually take care of kyungsoo very well.

[jongie~]

^

damn, im actually imagining it rnw~

 

 

taekai fanart never fails me..lol...

theres even more erotic fanart of them i found in other site, not gonna post it here..haha

 

btw, this is actually very cute..though jongin is the uke -_-

[jongie~]

Kwonho is already in the army so I'm not sure where people are getting that info from.

Thats what im trying to say..the 4th person maybe someone who arent related to them -maybe their managers friend- because as far as i know, they said taekai only went there with another one person -must probably taemins manager-

Besides, how cannot japanese not know kwonho? Isnt he already went to wgm. So, people should recognise him too...idk if this make sense.i tried to ask one of those fans but i getting no reply yet.

 

 

 

lol why? You don't like uke jongin? he's the ultimate botom imo, especially for taemin. He will let taemin do wtv he wants to him lol

 

I didnt mean it that way.i prefer them to switch roles -taemin act like uke with kai and i dont have problem with that too- i hate the fact that people keep repeating kai is taemins dongsaeng. Yeah kai maybe a bit younger than taem but his friend are all 93er which means hes chose to be 93er rather than 94er.

Edited January 31, 2014 by jongie~

[jongie~]

Yeah. They all (minus Kai) went out before he enlisted. Someone said the 4th person is a family member.

They should know him, and he looks the same age as Taemin and Kai while the fanaccounts implied it was someone older.

 

I'm happy there are no clear close pictures.

I know about kwonho enlisting too..theres fanacc and picture stated moonkyu,tae and kwonho going out before kwonho got enlisted to army, kai was unable to attend because of his schedule.

Oh! I had no idea! Mainly fanacc only focusing on taekai..might be because kai and taemin always stick together than the other two who are joining them.

I wish i speak japanese lol..im dying to know what else theyre doing there.j-fans can be quite secretive sometimes...

sharing some more fanarts for taekai in japan honeymoon

 

 

 

 

this i found by accident,drawing by kaitaem japanese fans

 

 

 

japanese article about taemin and kai..this is really adorable..

wish i could understand better. my japanese friend isn't helping at all

 

 

There are a lot of Jongin's fans who don't know Kwonho. I don't know but from his photo in his twitter (he already deleted his account today), Kwonho posted a photo in plane and write "with my friends, have fun". I think he will be later for army or something.

Kwonho is weird LOL, he often posted something and deleted after that! To prove that he is him, there is a selca of Kwonho and his girlfriend there. His dp is his selca too and he often talks with another account (of his girlfriend) =.=

I don't know! Haizzz, they are so complicated! =))

For Moonkyu's birthday, he posted Moon with cake too =.=

you sure knows a lot about kwonho..lolz...and he have gf?  hes quite close to moonkyu isn't he? ive read once the poem they made for each other..kwonho and moonkyu are funny though. our kai and taemin in the other hand quite secretive. theyre really something....

 

btw, did you guys heard about the news kai came back from japan alone? is it true? now everyone getting confuse because kai spotted wearing same clothes as the one  he wore when he flew to japan.

[jongie~]

 

Taekai Episode:

They met when they were both trainees. 

At their first meeting, they got into an argument over who danced the choreo correctly. Turned out that both of them were wrong.

 

Durgin Sherlock era, Kai went aronund showing Taemin's long haired picture telling them it was his girlfriend.

 

Kai: Though they're both in the same grade, he calls Taemin a "hyung".  (does he??)

Taemin often takes Kai near the sunbaes and gets kai flustered.

 

Taemin often calls Kai, jongin because he's not used to his stage name "kai". He corrects himself saying "Jongin....Kai is".

 

When they went to have Taiyaki, they argued over which side they should start eating from.(taemin - head, kai - tail) Because taemin went to buy another bread to eat, Kai bought a taiyaki for Taemin and made up.

During Lucifer era, he rememberd his trainee days. "During summer break, he'd go to the roof top and play with water(?) Hide there til midnight....

He'd practice with his same-aged friends, but he wants them to debut as fast as they coul "he said ( I didn't really understand this part...)

taiyaki is this:

I don't think it was an official article, but fanamde. 

 

OMG did you just translate it for me?   kai favourite hang out place also at SM rooftop...

i remembered in one of taem's interview, he was talking about he wanted to take a short break with his friend and suddenly he went away to japan with kai...ya know sometimes when taemin said friend, i always reminded about kai...idk why..

 

this is official article-100% sure cos they said it was from korean-japanese magazine in japan-

[jongie~]

 

 

seriously, their fighting thing never gets old...but they really fought a lot arent they...this is quite a troublesome..

 

feeding you guys with more taekai moments. i wont stop anytime soon.hah

WGM already ended but i just sharing their precious moments with you guys to keep this thread alive

 

taemin obvious expression when he was asked to take the food from naeun's mouth

and the way kai stole a glance at him

 

 

the rest of exo members supporting naeun to say 'saranghae' to taemin while kai.....

[jongie~]

 

 

I'm confused about why you guys say Kwonho would be the 4th person there and not 3rd person

Only Kai and Taemin are confirmed. The 3rd person isn't confirmed to be a manager or Kwonho etc..

 

and lol at random Japan magazine picking up random rumors

i know, the articles are so random..there are 4 people present in the subway pic that they took so i was just making a wild guess..lol

not a single pic is successfully taken by korean fans upon their arrival. i had no idea when they arrived /sobs

 

 

TaeKai is one of those pairs where I don't think they'd be gay for anyone else but maybe they're gay for each other. Ya know?

i was thinking about the same thing and i already discussed about this matter with others but they just didnt believed my words. whats the most hardest thing for me is to be a taekai shipper. people just couldn't stop sayin like theyre brothers or twins. it got me so frustrated. ya know taekai are shippable too...

 

btw, i cant wait for the sbs show. i didnt expect them to showcase their closeness or showing their japan vacation for viewers but little touchy moments or their subtle glances already enough for me.

[jongie~]

Kai's audition video will be revealed for the first time on tv through SBS special program, along with his honest thoughts on how he felt watching his friend, Taemin, debut before him. Kai's method of practicing will also be broadcasted during the program which will air on Sunday 16th of February.

[jongie~]

I hate when people compare Taemin and Kai. They have their own charm! I love Taemin but Kai is always my beloved kid that I really admire and I really want to protect him!

i was so disappointed to see people arguing who's better between kai and taemin. i believe the sbs thing is not to be made for fanwar. taekai are together for god sake.

 

 

God, they're like a pair of magnets around each other. It's ridiculous.

 

Also, I'm really interested to hear how Kai felt. I mean, they were BABIES. Kai was only 13 when Taemin debuted. Ya know? It had to have been rough (yes, I use international age because it still floors me that Taemin was only 14.)

theyre inseparable. some people are blind enough to see their interactions. taekai is realer than any of their otp tbh.

i want to hear taemin's view about kai too...and im dying to see their unreleased picture together -just the two of them please, with no moonkyu or kwonho in between-

 

 

happy valentines day tweet from nakedplanet-one of the famous kai fansite-

[jongie~]

taekai in sbs special~

 

 

Once when Kai was a trainee, he practiced until 5am and was about to fall asleep in the vocal studio when Taemin walked in. Kai said he was scared and so Taemin went to sleep with him in the studio.140217 SBS Special, trans by sehwun
 

"kai was scared to sleep alone before" so the Taemin and Kai sleeping together in practice room TT^TT

 

RT @/kimkeysemily: Taemin said he practised a lot with Kai, sleep together with Kai during practise time too

 

• KAI: After Taemin debuted, I was practicing alone when (Taemin) came to visit me. Then, he asked me [how to dance this certain] choreography, and I have a memory of (Taemin) learning from me. I felt really good that moment.
• TAEMIN: You felt good?
• KAI: Yes, I felt really good. Really good.
• TAEMIN: You seemed bothered though.
• trans cr.: ggamjongin

@KAISOONE: Jongin : Yes, Taemin is one of my biggest competitor , but i also learnt many things from him.

 

Jongin : People once asked me "are you jealous with Taemin?". i thought , why should i jealous? . we learned everything together.

 

“Although he is a famous singer now, he is still the old Taemin i know. And i learned many things about.â€-jongin

 

During the trainee days, Jongin and Taemin slept together in the practice room. They often spent the break time together.

 

Both Taemin and Jongin always giving support to each other since the first time they met.

 

like the moment taekai saw each other they had to hold hands & hesitated on letting go of each other's fingers

 

taekai always supported each other since they were child

 

it’s been a while since Taemin saw Kai dance so he asked Kai to dance for him cos he miss it

cr:mintytaemin@tumblr

 

taemin wanted to see kai dance because he hadn't watch kai dancing for a while and then kai immediately granted his wish

 

Kai is soooo spoiled when he's with Taemin LOL Awww, TaeKai~

 

taekai gettin comfortable and touchy freely

cr:dazzlingkai@tumblr

 

i was so excited to see they dancing to let me know...SM must put them together in subunit!

btw, the cut version of taekai is already out guys!
