SHINee's Key Resumes Activities After Show Departures and Controversy

SHINee's Key is currently sharing aspects of his daily life and gradually resuming public activities, drawing interest from fans. This return follows a period of hiatus and his departure from popular variety shows due to a controversy.

Key faced the 'Jusa Imo' controversy last December, which led to his stepping down from MBC's "I Live Alone" and tvN's "Amazing Saturday." He underwent a police investigation regarding alleged medical law violations. After a six-month hiatus, he returned to group activities with SHINee's 6th mini-album 'Atmos' this June and launched a personal YouTube channel last August. Recent updates include a dance challenge with fellow member Minho on September 10th and a visit to his hometown Daegu with his mother on August 27th.

Local bloggers note that fans are happy to see Key's return, especially his ordinary daily life shown through his personal channels, which was previously a highlight on "I Live Alone." There is anticipation for his future activities as he cautiously re-engages with the public after navigating a challenging period.
