K-pop idols graduate from high school

A handful of young Korean pop idols -- including Minho and Key of SHINee, Dongho of U-Kiss and Lee Jung-shin of CNBLUE -- graduated from their high schools today.

Minho of boy band SHINee attended his graduation ceremony at Konkuk University Affiliated High School, while his bandmate Key received his diploma from Youngshin High School in the city of Daegu.

Minho, who will be enrolling in Konkuk University as a film major next month, was handed not only his diploma but a special award for his contribution in making the school better known to the public.

Key, who returned to his hometown of Daegu for the graduation ceremony, also received recognition for his contribution as well as a high school diploma.

"I am glad and happy because fans are congratulating me on my graduation," the 18-year-old singer was quoted as saying. "Now that I am an adult, I will be more responsible and work hard for the fans."

U-Kiss member Dongho showed up at his alma mater Yonggang Middle School in Seoul, accompanied by his bandmates Kevin, Ki-bum, Alexander and Ki-sub. Dongho will be attending Hanlim Multi Art School in March.

Lee Jung-shin, bassist of indie rock band CNBLUE, also became a graduate today, receiving a diploma at Jung Bal High School located in Ilsan, Korea.
