Jonghyun was the 20 best albums of 2016 list by Fuse and was the only korean in the list, poor your faves!

When it came time for his first full-length album She Is, soul-pop singer Jonghyun-—who makes up one-fifth of sensational K-pop boy band SHINee—wasn't going to play it safe like he might have on his debut EP Base. This LP is lead by the wonky, synth-pop title track, but there's loads of ambitious experimentation to be found within each quirky treasure that makes up the tracklist. "Orbit" mashes clangy piano and pulsing synthesizer lines, while "Dress Up" is an aggressive turn-up. Notably, Jonghyun is showcasing a more confident side with his vocals, going full-on crooner on cuts like "White T-Shirt" and switching from falsetto to an all-out belt on "Red." Even the album's closing track, "Suit Up," a track most K-pop fans would expect would be a classic ballad, is a sentimental, trap-influenced throbber. Changing up what's expected is sometimes the greatest thing an artist can do, as evienced by a great album start-to-finish
