"No matter how drunk I am, I have to promote Taeminie. Taeminah you're the best. You worked the hardest. Don't sway at whatever people say. We have our own path to go."

"I'm not being like this because I'm really drunk. Taeminie worked really hard. There isn't anyone who gets by without going through hardships but whatever he set his goal as, Taemini deserves more than enough to be loved. The talks I had with you for this album, I felt your sincerity. Please love Taeminie."

"I'm at the practice room. I came to play after hearing that Taemin is going to release a solo album. I raised him since he was young since when did he grow up like this?"
(T/N: Jonghyun mentioned it in the scenario they acted out to explain the listener's story. So the above was phrased like a message that Jonghyun sent out on SNS even though it's fictional.)
cr. bluenight408

[SHINee's Jonghyun] ✧ Blue Night Radio [140814]
"I wrote it thinking a lot about Taemin's image. I also asked him 'What is that you want to say'"

"People think that Taemin is a delicate/fine boy but actually Taemin is totally a cool man. (He used the words 상남자 ㅋㅋㅋ)"

"Taemin goon needs to come to Blue Night. Needs to come to promote his album~"

"Just listened Taemin's Pretty Boy. This song is not the title .. But I am the song writer .. So ... "

"Just now Taemin-ssi's song was played on Blue Night right, I heard that Taemin and Kai..... they are close to each other. From when they were trainees, then one proceeded to debut first under SHINee and another one waited for his debut under Exo."

"I'm going to let you guys listen (to pretty boy) for a second time a little bit.... it's Taemin's voice. He did well. I wrote the lyrics."

Jonghyun says Taemin is someone that has really good determination and perseverance so he will do well.
Jonghyun says the song is written on the basis of what Taemin wants to say to the world about his mistaken image.
