SHINee is one of the most popular K-pop bands in South Korea, with a fandom spread across the world. Recently, some members of the band came under fire for certain comments about their bandmate Minho, which did not go down well with fans. In a now-deleted clip posted on SHINee's YouTube channel, band members Key and Taemin were seen having a chat in bed, when the three had a conversation about Minho's skin tone, which many have found problematic.

Key, Taemin and the content production team, PRISM Production Center, have since issued apologies for the allegedly problematic remarks.
