 and new singer Jino have formed a project group under their label.
Originally, the song "Miss You" was named "When It Began". And when SHINee's group name was still undecided, Onew and Jonghyun had already recorded the song in duet style featuring Minho's rap, intending to include the song in the debut album. But because it was incompatible with the album's image, there were plans to release it as a single instead. But there was yet another change in plan, and the decision was to have TVXQ's Xiah Junsu, Super Junior's Kyuhyun and SHINee's Jonghyun perform it as a trio. With just 2 months before the album was to be released, JYJ released the declaration of leaving SM. The final plan was to include TRAX's Jay and new SM trainee Jino, and the song title officially becomes "Miss You".

2010: Debut and Miss You
