15 Reasons Why MinKey Is Real
MinKey has been my favorite SHINee OTP since the beginning but after "Hello Baby" I've noticed that there's been an influx of new fans.
So if you're curious about the pairing or just want to see lots of pics and gifs of two gorgeous guys, follow the cut below!
*nearly all the pictures are expandable so click to get the full HQ goodness!*
01. They're the same age (aka The 91-Line)
Which means none of those hyung-dongsaeng honorifics. They call each other by their names and Minho used Kibum more often than Key. Because of that informality, they have a comfort with each other that was there from the beginning. Even before debut.
02. They send each other "significant" glances
I think the smiles and lip licking speak for themselves :D
03. They have a love child
What? Yes. Yes they do. Okay, they don't really but Yoogeun might as well be their real son considering how much he looks like the two of them. And how protective they are of him. I think the other three have pretty much given up hope of ever getting close to Yoogeun with Minho & Key hogging him all the time. Plus the way they bicker to be his favorite is just like real parents. "Hello Baby" has so many MinKey moments that I can't even begin to list them!
04. They stand next to each other in the "formation"
This isn't all that important but it does provide fans with lots of chances to get pictures of them flirting whispering to each other.
05. They bring double the pretty
They are pretty boys individually. But together? Blinding doesn't doesn't even begin to describe it! It's like being hit with a double whammy of gorgeousness. Guh. How are they both so flawless?
06. Minho is Key's laughing shoulder
Don't get it? The pics and gifs below should explain.
07. Key mothers Minho too
It's not to the same extent that he does with Taemin but he still fixes Minho's clothes, wipes his sweat and feeds him food. What makes it even more adorable when Key does that stuff with Minho is that Minho always gives off this air of being independent and self-reliant. The fact that he lets Key baby him sometimes is so telling of their bond.
08. They hit each other and bicker
This may not seem like a big deal but it is! Onew and Jonghyun are scared to death of Key and Taemin only lashes out once in a while. Minho is pretty much the only member who hits, bullies and teases Key .... and lives to do it again Again, this shows how honest they are with each other. They don't try to keep things inside and openly hit (and hug) each other when the moment calls for it.
09. Minho comforts Key
When Key turns into a blubbering crying mess, Minho is always there to hold him and wipe his tears away.

10. Their combined badassery is too much for the average fangirl to handle
A double dose of prettiness makes our hearts flutter but twice the sexiness? Get out your drool buckets ladies!
11. They are secretly touchy-feely
They put their arms around each other, grope grab, touch, the list goes on and on. Their skinship isn't as in-your-face as some of the other SHINee OTPs but it's there! You just have to be looking for it.
12. They're even bigger dorks when together
Even before Minho started being more carefree in shows and interviews, he was always a bit more goofy (and himself) around Key.
13. When they rap together, fangirls swoon and faint by the hundreds
Thank you Kpop gods for the awesomeness that is "Get Down". They've both got their own unique rapping style but they sound even better together. Especially when they rap battle against each other and there's UST flying all over the stage. That's right Key, you're supposed to get up in Minho's face you know he likes it :P

14. They fanboy each other
These moments are just too cute for words. Even Key isn't immune to Minho's good looks!
15. They have Hangeng and Heechul's approval
The mighty HanChul have spoken. All other arguments are now invalid.
I didn't have time to search for more videos so here's a MinKey fanvid instead :D

And before we go, some cute fanart!
This one never fails to crack me up! (Especially how perfectly Key fits)
