Singer BoA reportedly almost shared a kiss with SHINee’s Taemin at the Tokyo Dome during the “SMTOWN LIVE TOUR V IN JAPAN” performance on Aug. 14.

The two artists were performing “Only One,” demonstrating remarkable dance moves and appearing quite intimate.

BoA has shared the stage with Taemin for “Only One” on several occasions, but Taemin would usually only join her briefly before exiting the stage.

However, on Aug. 14, the two faced each other at the end of the performance, appearing to close in for a kiss.

Although their lips did not touch, the close proximity prompted Taemin’s female fans to roar in dismay and shock.

Some fans said that Taemin was just a “young boy” when he started joining BoA on stage to perform “Only One” in 2012. He has grown more mature -- and manly -- heating up the chemistry between the two singers more than before, they said.
