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 :omg:

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 :shock:

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

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.

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! :)

 

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-

 

They do have a few sleca's released but only ones where moonkyu and kwonho is with them

well Taemin has neither twitter, nor instagram, and he looses his phone often so....

They do hangout with each other outside of their schedule even after their debut but maybe they're just not as close as some fans believe them to be?

Doesn't mean I don't ship taekai but yeah.

I don't really understand what you mean. But I can say that Taemin and Kai are not close as we think...Yes! "whisper" they love each other and they are lovers =))

 

Taemin is definitely close with Kai! When Taemin debuted with SHINee, they had a difficult time to face each other. Be sure that Kai was not that happy. However, he kept his dream because Jongin knew what he wants and he tried more to get his dream.

In 2009, I think, in a radio, Taemin mentioned about his friend and their promises to meet each other one day. I wondered that he mentioned Kai or not and I believe what I want to believe. :)

 

Taemin talked us that Kai is his best friend and Kai talked that too. Then no one can refuse it :)

Why we need to focus so much on details??? Everybody knows about their friendship. Even though, Jonghyun told that their friendship is really admirable! (sukira radio) :)

 

That's all! We don't need more! They maybe can have a quarrel and they can be not close enough on stage but their friendship never ends.

They spent their hard time together and I believe they know how precious each other is :)

Lol, yeah

It was just a thought. I'm pretty sure they're close and like hanging out with each other

I think its interesting because Taemin doesn't usually cling to his hyungs(SHINee members) but he goes to sit/stand by kai to hug/hold hands/talk to him whenever there's kai:D I also love the way Kai looks at Taemin, like he just adores him.

 

Edit.

Someone already posted a similar vid to this but kai and tae are so cute/adorable

Toffemilk posted 1 Kai pic mentioning honeymoon to Japan around  7 hours ago http://instagram.com/p/jvJwafyq9l

None of Taemin's pic from anywhere. But then 2 hours ago Sehun fan from Japan saw them in Hakone.

Hakone is noted for its onsen hot spring resorts, which attract both Japanese and international visitors due to its proximity to the greater Tokyo metropolis and to Mount Fuji.

@sesesehun_luv tweets about meeting them were translated by @myeonieewu :

2h

she/he said that taemin and kai were laughing and looked very happy

2h

she said that because they weren't recognized by people around them kai seem to be so happy and relaxed

2h

i'm sorry, she didn't specify that it was the station, but more like hakoneyumoto area

1h

taekai are also accompanied by one man which likely is a manager

 

Within less than 2 hours after the rumor spread out on twitter, カイテム (KaiTem) were trending in Japan TT #1 lol

BfIZixrCEAAkVxd.png

 

As there's no report about cameramen but only accompanied by 1 manager (?) maybe it's a private holiday. So I saw EXO fantwitter & a Taemin Japanese fansite warned fans not to stalk them.

Maybe for Chinese New Year Jan 31st?

Fans said it's a 6 days holiday.

so they went on a personal trip together? that's so adorable. :ilove:

I wonder why they picked Japan though. Taemin's been there so many times, I'd imagine him picking somewhere he's never been to. I wonder if it was Kai who suggested they'd go there.

oh and you signature thing is adorable too:D

It seems so? IDK if they would meet some other friends there flying separately?

Japan especially Hakone has some of the best onsen, maybe? LOL IDK.

It reminds me of his GEEK interview where he just wanna escape the routine life and go on spontaneous vacation just with his friends :)

OnTae's poker face battle is, indeed, really adorable :chu:

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

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-

 

 

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?

The same for Taemin. He acts different when he's around kai. It's probably because he's the same age/a bit older than kai. Where as in SHINee, he's the baby of the group.

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

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

cvmb.jpg

 

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

OMG did you just translate it for me? :stare:  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-

A6YFOzxCUAATkCQ.jpg

It pretty much saids the same thing:) 
Becoming Best Friends from a big fight
Friednliness: 75 Bestfriend Period: about 5 years
They became friends after the fight(about the dancing)
Their friendship is well known among the fans, and are called "KaiTaem" by combinging their names.
I skipped over the fighting over the dance part cuz I already did that in the previous post.
 
I think most of Taekai articles states the same thing because there's few interactions between them. And it seems most of them are about fighting.

Im praying for something big happens too in the future..according to his tweet-from what i can read there-, he was just sayin he went to eat hot pot with shinee taemin and exo kai today....i just found it weird etude producer went to eat with just two of them.but i heard jongin had to leave earlidr cos he have a work to do.

 

He's one of the Etude staff, he's really close with SHINee members, especially Key... It's not uncommon for them to meet together so i guess they're just eating a meal together

I'm still hoping since he was also with Kai...but i guess its more likely they're just having a meal together

BhpLPUfCIAAs91G.jpg:large

couple clothes, couple shoes, couple keychain lanyards, and couple beanie...so, when will you guys release your selcas? quit teasing us, kai and taemin. -i'm sorry this has been bugging me lately.-

 

I'm relieved whats happening to taohun in qingdao-fans are stalking them everywhere they go- didn't happen to taekai..actually it was great thing to do when Japanese fans decided to protect taekai's privacy in Japan by not capturing their moments in frame. but for me, its a lie if I said that I'm happy about it. to tell truth i'm frustrated because none of it are leak. we respect their decision, fine. still, at least release something to soothe us. damn...

 

firstly, to clear any misunderstanding i'm not stalker, okay. :rolleyes: just wanna share this picture of taekai hang out together with you guys. I found it in one of blog in naver and i had no idea when was this taken. according to what i read, i think around january, maybe??? -kwonho also went with them too??? idk, its not confirmed-

so...this is it,

rgewrgwgr.png

taemin and kai together in PC bang..

warning: please dont take this picture out of this thread and spread it around. it was meant to be share between taekai shippers ONLY

 

I understand what you mean:) I don't want them to be stalked but it would have been nice if there was just one picture where you could recognize it was them. Because without it, it almost seems like the trip never happened.

But I respect their opinions since it was their private vacation after all.
