SEOUL, Jan. 29 (Yonhap) — Taemin, the youngest member of K-pop boy band SHINee, will return to the K-pop scene next month with a new solo record, his management agency said Tuesday.

The second EP by Taemin, “WANT,” set for release on Feb. 11, has seven tracks of different music genres, fronted by the title track “WANT,” according to SM Entertainment.

Taemin was the first of the SHINee members to debut as a solo artist, having released his first solo work in 2008 and made hits with songs like “Danger” and “Press Your Number.”

His second full-length solo album, “Move,” released in October 2017, was also a sensational hit.

Taemin built a successful career in Japan as well, where he topped the daily Oricon album chart in November, with his first Japanese full-length album “TAEMIN.”
