The film, named after their devoted fans or popularly known as “SHAWOL”, chronicles the group’s journey, showcasing their backstories, triumphs, struggles, and concert highlights. Presented in Philippine cinemas nationwide from November 17-19, this special production, brought to the Philippines by CDM Entertainment and Rafaella Films International, captures the essence of SHINee’s enduring success.

SHAWOLs screamed, cheered, and at times cried with their light sticks throughout the movie until the credits rolled. The cheering continued as a raffle of both official and unofficial merch happened afterwards, and even the display tarps were given away as a last-minute addition.
