SHINee’s Key Breaks Down in Tears After Surprise 'Music Bank' Win During 'Amazing Saturday' Filming—Taeyeon Comforts Him On Set

SHINee’s Key was moved to tears after learning about his music show win in the middle of filming.

On the 23rd, the official tvN 'Amazing Saturday' social media account shared a sneak peek video with the caption: “Breaking news that brought Key to tears during 'Amazing Saturday' filming?! Key, the master of his craft, finds out his song 'HUNTER' has taken first place! 'Amazing Saturday' gives you an early look, three weeks ahead. Curious about Key’s tearful acceptance speech? Tune in on September 13 [Sat] at 7:40 PM KST. Don’t miss out!”

In the released video, Key discovers during the filming of 'Amazing Saturday' that he has just won first place on 'Music Bank'. Overwhelmed, Key covers his mouth in shock, while Taeyeon, unaware of the news, simply reacts with a surprised “Oh my!” and continues with the shoot.



At that moment, Key turns to Taeyeon and says, “I got first place.” Taeyeon responds with delight, exclaiming, “Oh my!” and celebrates with him. Boom asks, “Key, what’s going on?” and the news is shared: “Key just won first place on a music show!”

Fellow cast members Park Na-rae, Shin Dong-yup, and others cheer, congratulating him with warm words like, “Congratulations!” “Oh wow!” and “Why are you crying?”

Key, overcome with emotion, leans on Taeyeon as he sheds tears. Because of his commitment to 'Amazing Saturday', Key was unable to attend the live broadcast of 'Music Bank' and had only participated in the pre-recording. He explained, “I found out secretly by checking my phone. Sorry about that.” The cast gathered around Key, offering their heartfelt congratulations.

Key released his third full-length album, 'HUNTER', on the 11th.
