Reporter : Fans typically call you the cute “maknae.” You’re now 18, what do you think about being called cute?
Taemin : When I heard that I was cute, it was very awkward. Truthfully, when I heard that my hyungs were called cool, I wanted to hear that I was cool too. Right now, being called cute is a good thing. It feels like I still have two years left . Hyungs could now be dangerous. Haha. Recently, I went to register for my citizen’s id and it felt nostalgic. When I was a trainee, I watched Jonghyun hyung get his and thought it was interesting. I suppose I’m a little less cute now…
