SHINee member Jonghyun’s shoulder has a face?

SHINee member Jonghyun has revealed a rather peculiar image of his shoulder.

On July 9th, the idol took to Twitter with the picture above along with a brief explanation, naming the culprit: “Kibum, the guy who fooled around with my shoulder.”

In the picture, Jonghyun is seen wearing a sleeveless shirt and training pants. Fellow labelmate and Super Junior member Kim Kibum seems to have taken advantage of Jonghyun’s exposed shoulder, as he has decorated it with a man’s face, complete with facial hair.

Fans who saw the Twitter update, however, appeared more impressed with Jonghyun’s physique rather than with Kibum’s work of art, as they commented, “How big are Jonghyun’s triceps for the face to be that big?,” “Look at Jonghyun’s muscles! This picture was taken really well,” and, “Jonghyun must have exercised a lot [because] those bulging muscles look awesome.”

Regardless of whether it’s Jonghyun’s arm decoration or the arm itself that grabs your attention, it is still an amusing photo.
