He showed full appreciation for the culture.
SHINee‘s Taemin recently held a concert in Mexico. As with Latina culture, many throw undergarments on stage to express their respect and love for an artist. Taemin had been taking a break in between sets when he found a bra on stage. He picked up the red lace undergarment and tucked it away.
He politely hid it from view as he took his water to sip on instead.

Later, Taemin’s response to the matter surprised fans in a good way. He indicated that he was aware of the culture and spoke in English to fans. He explained that he was happy to have received the bra.
*sees the red and grabs the bra*
Taemin: “I know you guys culture, so I’m happy” *GETS EXTREMELY SHY*
HAHAHA
Curiosity killed the cat (of shyness) hahaha #Ephemeral_Gaze_in_Mexico

I know you guys’ culture, so this thing is [a] very good thing, right? I’m so happy.

In fact, Taemin once went on a variety show and expressed excitement that fans from Latin continents often throw their undergarments on stage. He even honestly admitted that he hoped they weren’t new ones!
this reminds me of that time when he went on a jp variety show and he said that he wishes his fans throw the bras that they are wearing instead of brand new one https://t.co/cCDKbJ2Y4H pic.twitter.com/GQF0E6Y319
