SHINee's Key remains silent on the 'Injection Aunt' controversy but makes an unedited appearance on the 'Halmyungsoo' YouTube channel.

On the 12th, the YouTube channel 'Halmyungsoo' released a video titled "Key and Minho, Fight a Lot During Your Dubai Trip, It's Fun to Watch."

In the video, Key is seen at the airport asking, "What kind of combination is this?" The production team responds, "We've prepared everything from gourmet spots to shopping and a desert tour," setting the tone for an exciting trip.

Before boarding the plane, the trio wrote a 'Friendship Trip Ten Commandments,' enjoying a lively time together. When asked about the rule "Why buy this? It's a waste," Key replied, "I encourage buying more. I've already added things to my cart. I want to buy something to wear on my head," expressing his desire to shop in Dubai.

Upon arriving in Dubai, the trio indulged in a luxurious trip, enjoying gourmet tours, shopping, and a desert adventure. During a dinner featuring a $100 truffle pasta, Key remarked, "This dish requires a lot of effort to make. You have to grate this much cheese, and isn't this fresh truffle? You have to pay $100 while watching the fountain," expressing his admiration.

However, the video release was met with a chilly response from netizens. Comments included, "Key at this timing?", "The courage to upload this is impressive," "Is it okay for him to appear?", "Who came to read the comments?", and "They're releasing the next episode too?"
