Debuting in 2008 under SM Entertainment, SHINee is the 5-member group that defined neo-soul and R&B-infused K-pop and opened the door for K-pop in Japan. Their Japanese debut album The First debuted at No. 2 on the Oricon chart in 2011, and they became one of the best-selling foreign acts in Japan with cumulative sales exceeding 3 million copies. Songs like Ring Ding Dong, Sherlock, and View showcase their genre-defying approach, while their influence on dance precision and vocal harmony set the gold standard for idol performance.
