Key SHINee Concert Comeback Controversy Restart

SHINee’s Key is set to rejoin the group for their full-member solo concert after a 5-month hiatus.

According to SM Entertainment on the 27th, SHINee will hold their 8th solo concert, ‘- The Trilogy I – 2026 SHINee WORLD VIII : [THE INVERT],’ from May 29th to May 31st at the KSPO DOME in Olympic Park, Seoul.

This concert marks the first solo concert in approximately a year with all four SHINee members.

Through this performance, Key is scheduled to return to the stage approximately 5 months after halting his activities.

Previously, Key suspended his activities in December 2025 following a controversy involving a person known as ‘Jusai Imo’.

At the time, Key stated through his agency, “I knew the person (‘Jusai Imo’) as a doctor and did not realize that receiving treatment at home would be problematic. I recently learned that she was not a doctor through the medical license controversy and am deeply reflecting on my ignorance.”
