You have watched Taemin before ...... I think. He is the youngest of this group.

[@CRNK824]

When someone finds Shinee and realizes how much they missed. No one like them...trendsetters for all future generations of kpop. Highly suggested you start at the beginning, 2008, and go forward from there.. Please note the band was 5 active members, Our beautiful Jonghyun passed away in 2017 so now we have 4 active members and one angel who will always make Shinee five.

[@5447princess]

2017 he passed.

SHINee ❤

[@giovannabenso1754]

SHINee debuted under SM label in 2008 as an experimental r&b group, composed of 5 members whose age was ranging between 14 and 18 years old. Very young but very talented. 5 unique vocalists, 5 dancers, 5 visuals. They are now 4 members (as you could see in the video) because their main vocalist and frontman Kim Jonghyun passed away in December 2017...after that, they thought about disbanding, but in the end they decided to keep on treasuring the legacy of Jonghyun and considering themselves always as 5. They have a huge discography either in Korean and in Japanese; they are so loved in Kapan, that they are not even considered as a foreign group :-) All of them have solo careers, besides group activities. The first was the maknae, Taemin (I think you already reacted to him as a soloist), who debuted in 2014 when he was 21 years old with his album "Ace". He also has a huge discography either in Korean or in Japanese. Outstanding dancer, excellent singer, elegant artist with a unique style, he is considered the Korean MJ and one of the best dancers in the industry (he is best friend with Jimin of BTS and Kai of EXO). He holds the record as the only one kpop artist having debuted in 3 different kpop generations (2nd debuting with SHINee, 3rd with his solo debut, 4th debuting with Super M). At present he is performing military service. The second was Jonghyun, who debuted solo in 2015 with the album "Base". He is still considered as one of the most beautiful and unforgettable voices in kpop. He wrote or participated in writing many of SHINee's songs (around 40%?) and first SM artist to have self-written albums. First SM artist to write songs for other artists of his label and also cooperating outside SM). Key was the third member going solo with his album "Face". All-rounder dancer, signer, rapper and visual, incredibly talented and fashion designer in SM (he designed most of the stage costumes for SHINee). He came back last year with his EP "Bad Love" (a real jem) and he just had his comeback with his album "Gasoline". Then we have Onew, the eldest and the leader, the one whose voice you liked. He was operated to his vocal chords and risked to lose hos voice. He had to retrain from scratch but came back better than ever. He dropped his first album "Voice" one week before enlisting at the end of 2018 as a present to Shawols (or Shinee World, the name of the fandom), and reflects the very sad and dark period he had between 2017 and 2018. This year he came back with his new EP "Dice". Minho, main rapper, singer, dancer, model and visual of the group appears in almost all SHINee's songs credits for the rap parts. He hasen't pursued a real solo career as singer until now, dropping only a few beautiful songs as "I'm Home" and the recent "Heartbreak", "Romeo and Juliet" and "Falling Free". He has mostly pursued his career as actor in k drama and films (he played also in "Hwarang" together with V of BTS). I would recommend to watch not only the more recent production (from 2018) but to start from their debut song "Replay" (2008). And - if I may say - more the live stages and concerts. They are stage beasts, concerts lasting 3+ hours, best stage presence, incredible choreographies, amazing live vocals with often quite complex harmonies (even way better than studio ones). Great in hype songs and in ballads... If you want to know more, you can watch this "Un"helpful guide to SHINee kzbin.info/www/bejne/al7Yo4hueruni5o. There are some more detailed guides, but this one gives already an idea of the their talent, their bond, their chaotic energy... 🙂 Please, give them a try. I think you will not be deceived. Thank you.

[@noemibernal4882]

Thanks for this comment! I can't express how much I love Shinee!

[@memz982]

Shinee is one of the legends in korea

[@vickst0892]

You clearly have a good ear; Onew's voice (the vocalist that stood out to you) is very known in the industry for having an incredibly distinctive vocal tone. SHINEE are legends, what else can we say.

[@zandelion1809]

Onew has one of my favorite voices in the music industry. Truly unique. Shinee is ICONIC🔥🔥🔥

[@sjames1955]

Shinee are 2nd generation Kpop superstars often referred to as the Princes of Kpop. You may be familiar with Shinee Taemin who is a very popular solo artist and is widely regarded as the best dancer in Kpop. If not, you're missing something phenomenal. Shinee Key just had a comeback last week with Gasoline and it's over the top. Shinee is universally admired and respected and many newer groups have covered their songs.

[@Kristenidas]

Onew honestly has one of my favourite voices in Kpop. His voice is so unique and beautiful, it's always such a pleasure to listen to.

[@zahraarooj]

This song was so dope, so different thn the usual and thats wht SHINee is known for, setting trends in the Industry and Being different. Truly Legends. Please do dive deep into SHINee, u'll get urself to experience some amazing Art.

[@Riri_mohr]

U must see their live performances 🥳🥳🥳

[@viviennehumphries7968]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@user-wi5xv8zo7o]

I personally think that the song is about sasaengs (obsessive fans) that call idols on their private phones, which is why idols often have to change their number when the calls get to much

[@yongbok2241]

it probably is tbf

[@milindawilson9175]

With "Don't Call Me," SHINee are just doing what we have all come to expect from them -- showing us something that has never been seen or heard before and starting a new trend. Nothing you hear from them will ever be like anything you have ever seen or heard before. They raise the bar even higher with every comeback. And that's what makes them SHINee. :D With every new song release, SHINee are expected to come out with a style and sound that is brand new, not only for them, but in the industry as a whole. And "Don't Call Me" is a perfect example of that. What you just experienced is exactly what makes SHINee legends. And this is the reason why they are so highly respected, and why almost everyone in the industry who came after them cites them as one of their biggest influences and one of the reasons why they wanted to become a singer and dancer, etc. SHINee are one of the most iconic and influential groups. They are always setting trends, never following them. SHINee where designed to be SM Entertainment's experimental boy group, so everything they do is meant to be the first and they are expected to create the trend. With every new song SHINee produces it's expected to be different than the last, so you will never hear the same style or sound from them in any of their songs, even on the same album, and yet, somehow it will always sound like SHINee. The reinvent the industry with every new release. The industry looks to SHINee to show them what the next song style and dance trend will be. And it is said that within 3 months of SHINee releasing their new song and choreography, you will see that same sound and style being duplicated across the industry with every comeback to follow from both boy groups and girl groups. When SHINee does something the industry takes note and follows suit. SHINee has started the trend with almost everything -- with every one of their songs to their dances to clothing trends, to live performances, to the way Kpop is promoted -- there is almost nothing that can't be attributed to something SHINee has been involved in. You just discovered why SHINee still hold one of the top spots after more than 14 years in the industry. If you are impressed now, just wait until you go through their entire discography of songs and MVs. So far, they have 13 full-length albums (7 Korean albums and 6 Japanese albums), several repackaged albums, a multitude of mini albums, numerous OSTS, they each have solo songs and albums and there are hundreds of live performances that will absolutely leave you speechless with their talent. And it only gets more and more impressive as you follow them through their career. They have accomplished a lot in the past 14+ years and they are one of the groups that made Kpop what it is today. However, if you want to see where SHINee truly shines, you have to see their live performances. SHINee are part of the second generation of Kpop and, yet, they are younger than most everyone in their generation and are the same age or even younger than many members of groups who came after them, such as EXO and BTS, etc., which are part of Kpop's third generation. SHINee debuted young and have the experience of seasoned veterans. When SHINee debuted in 2008, Onew (the leader and lead vocalist) was 18, Jonghyun (the main vocalist and songwriter) had just turned 18, Minho (the main rapper and sub-vocalist) and Key (lead vocalist and sub-rapper) were 16 and Taemin (Main dancer and lead vocalist) was 14. However, now SHINee are known for the fact that there are no longer any fixed roles in their group. The main vocalists can rap, the rappers can fill in as main vocalists and they all are impressive dancers. SHINee are some of the most well respected artists in the industry. Onew (Pronounced Oh-New in English or On-New with a Korean accent, real name Lee JinKi) -- the one who you liked his voice, with the hoodie -- is the leader of the group and he has one of the most unique voices in the industry. (Onew means, or sounds like, the Korean words for soft or gentle, so he was given his stage name because he has a very calm and gentle personality.) He is one of the most coveted male voices that all other singers dream of getting a chance to collaborate with. His vocals are unmatched. He even holds the record (40+ seconds) for the longest continuous note without changing tone or pitch. Key -- the one with the feather headpiece -- is our fashionista of the group who is SHINee's stylist for a lot of their MVs and stage outfits. SHINee are known for setting trends and never being afraid to experiment, so Key is recognized for really paying attention to detail when it comes to fashion. He has a reputation for always being unique and wanting to stand out. He is an amazing singer and is a sub-rapper in the group. He is also considered SHINee's dance copy machine. Key has the ability to see and remember choreography the fastest in the group. He has a photographic memory when it comes to choreography, so he only needs to watch the dance once and he has it memorized. He is also SHINee's fluent English speaker, and he is almost as good as a native speaker. Minho -- the one with the red hair -- is the main rapper and visual of the group, but his vocals are also some of the best in the industry. Minho sings just as much as he raps. He also writes most of his own raps in SHINee's songs. Minho is a top actor and he has starred in numerous dramas and movies. He is also known as a star athlete. He says these days he goes to the gym a couple of times a day to work out just because he likes to work out, but he is also crazy about soccer, and he plays basketball, baseball and golf, and he is good at track and field events, etc., as well. And not only does he enjoy playing all those sports, but he is usually the best athlete on the field and he pretty much wins every time. Minho's nickname is "Flaming Charisma," and one reason is for his intense passion for sports and his need to always win. And as you know, Taemin -- the one with the blond highlights -- is considered one of THE BEST dancers in the industry (one of the top 2 best dancers of all dancers in Kpop), and that's not just by fans but by everyone in the industry, including his peers. Taemin's nickname is the Korean Michael Jackson. He is also one of the most popular male solo artists and he is a member of the Kpop supergroup SuperM. Taemin truly is art when it comes to his performances. Although Jonghyun wasn't in the MV -- because he passed away 4 years ago -- in order to get to know SHINee, you have to get to know him as well. He is known as one of the best vocalist in Kpop whose voice was unmatched. He also was one of the most prolific songwriters and composers of his generation. Jonghyun wrote and composed almost 40% of SHINee's songs, plus he wrote all of his own solo songs and numerous songs for other artists, such as EXO's "Playboy" and songs for Taemin, IU and Lee HI, etc. He was one of the only SM artists to be given complete artistic control over his work, including several of SHINee's song selections. SM knew that if Jonghyun was involved in any way that the song would be a hit. He was extremely respected within the industry as a songwriter, composer and singer. He was one of the very first Idols to be known for this songwriting and composing skills. SHINee are one of the top groups that are known for the fact that they all can do it all. They are a group of 5 amazing vocalists, 5 impressive dancers, 5 visuals, 5 rappers, 5 top actors, and 5 of the most talented and unique voices in all of Kpop. Once you get to know their voices you will always be able to pick them out of a crowd just by the sound of their voice. Most fans (SHINee World or Shawol for short) will tell you we know who is speaking or singing within 1 second even with our eyes closed, with them standing in a crowd of screaming fans. Each of their voices are that special -- there is no one with a voice like any of theirs. That is why they are "The Princes of Kpop". SHINee are known for their live vocals and amazing dancing. They are known as CD-quality singers because they sound just as good live, if not better, than they do recorded. SHINee always sings live. The ONLY thing they are not good at is lip syncing so they avoid it at all costs, so when you hear SHINee singing 95% of the time it will be live. It's a running joke between the fans and the members that when SHINee lip syncs you can tell because it's very obvious. So unless they are required to lip sync for a specific reason, SHINee will always sing live. They have trained their entire career to be able to sing live and continue to sound flawless while performing extremely complex choreography for more than 3 hours straight in concert. SHINee set the standard. That is why they are so highly respected among their peers. It is literally referred to as the SHINee standard. It's the standard all other groups strive to reach. You should also check out SHINee's live performance stage for "Don't Call Me," kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGSUYWaJqsRgma8. (If you like the piano in this song, just wait until you see their live performance. The piano becomes even more noteworthy in the live. I won't spoil it, you will just have to watch it to see what I mean. :D)

[@viviennehumphries7968]

😭😭😭

[@raesnest]

You've reacted to Taemin's solo work before so you have a little bit of SHINee on your channel. 😊 SHINee is a contemporary R&B/pop group. However, they were also formed with the intention to be a bit experimental so their sound stretches across many genres. Their discography includes a lot of experimental mixing of R&B, pop, hip-hop, synth, retro, dubstep, house, and even some rock. I usually think it's best for people start from the beginning from their 2008 debut song "Replay" and watch their growth as musicians over the years. But if you want more of this style from them, you can check on their live performances of "Trigger" and maybe "Alive" if you want. Replay - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jIWkhJmchbZ6nrs Alive - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZOccoShmruoo5o Trigger - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIHKf4h6dr2gatk

[@tiffanygolden9935]

Yas finally Shinnee we stan💞 They are KPOP king's, and they do rap but their style isn't rapping fast (Binnie from StrayKidz for example) they are just different always been different. Also at this point in their careers they all have their own solo stuff that is all spectacular. So the fact that they keep coming together and making such beautiful songs after all this time, and after tragically losing their fith member Jonghyun RIP🙏. Really it goes to show how much they are a family💗

[@dbhavya86]

YES!!!! FINALLY

[@milindawilson9175]

Because Taemin is also a member of SuperM, I think SHINee's "Don't Call Me" MV and Fake Reality teaser is SM's way of drawing SHINee into the SM Universe and fully connecting SHINee to SuperM's/EXO's storyline. Hence, Minho's red hair and the red room with the chairs hanging from the ceiling. I think this might be connected in someway to the Red Force, which is the evil force in EXO's/SuperM's storyline. As you may know by now, with everything that SM does, it's been designed to all connect. All of SM's groups' concepts and MV storylines connect together and it's all part of one giant Universe and story that started in 2012 with EXO's debut. To understand how all of SM's groups are connected, you first need to be aware that it all began with EXO's origin story. As you may know, EXO's concept is that they are aliens from Planet Exo who have been sent to Earth on a mission to find and protect the Tree of Life from the Red Force, while also trying to fix all the things that are going wrong in the world, which are believed to be caused by the Red Force. The Red Force is thought to be here on Earth inflicting their evil agenda -- corrupting humanity and causing all the bad things that are happening in the world, such as war, hate and destruction of the environment, etc. And because EXO is trying to undo and prevent the Red Force from accomplishing their goals, the Red Force is also trying to take down EXO by capturing them, corrupting them and standing in their way, etc. SuperM is the Kpop industry's very first supergroup, which debuted in October 2019, and their concept and storyline is centered around the fact that they are Avengers-like superheros, so SuperM is the group that pretty much connects everything together. As part of EXO's story, Baekhyun and Kai -- who are members of EXO -- have recruited members from SM's other male Kpop groups -- Taemin from SHINee, Taeyong and Mark from NCT and Ten and Lucas from WayV -- and formed SuperM, to help them battle the Red Force. So, because of this, all of SM's groups have storylines that connect. I see connections between EXO, SuperM, aespa and SHINee with the fact that we see SuperM riding on a subway train in their "100" MV and we see aespa in the subway in their debut "Black Mamba" MV, and now we see SHINee also in a train station in "Don't Call Me." And most recently, we saw Baekhyun from EXO/SuperM on an old train in his most recent solo "Bambi" MV. We even see Kai from EXO/SuperM on train tracks and people on a subway train platform in his "Film: Kai" solo debut teaser video during his "Amnesia" section of the video and as it transitions to "Mmmh." We also see Key from SHINee in a subway train in his solo debut "One of Those Nights" MV in 2018. And if we go back even further, you see EXO on train tracks in their "Love Me Right" MV and EXO-CBX (which Baekhyun is also a member of) on train tracks in their "Horololo" MV, etc. Which I think is all connected in someway. The train station/subway platform in "Don't Call Me" also is given a very futuristic EXO-like feel with the view of space and the planets in the sky when you see SHINee dancing on the train platform. I also think that the scene with Key in the red outfit standing on the phone booth submerged in water has something to do with the Red Force as well. In that scene we also see Key dressed in his black outfit with the feather headpiece standing in front of the image of himself, which looks as though this could be showing Key in alternate realities -- or a "fake reality." (And now that Key has released his solo "Hate That ... " MV, I think that scene with Taeyeon from Girls' Generation, standing on the rock in the middle of the ocean in "Hate That ..." is connected to that scene in "Don't Call Me" as well.) Then it looks as though the SHINee members go through some sort of wormhole as they are teleported somewhere and we see them all posing in their black outfits. This looks very similar to the scene in SuperM's debut "Jopping" MV when the SuperM members are coming together at the beginning of "Jopping." The members of SuperM are supposed to be coming together to help EXO fight the Red Force and to prevent or stop them from taking over the world, etc. As "The Avengers," SuperM is taking members from each of SM's groups and joining forces to take down the Red Force. And just like how the movies "Avengers Identity War" and "Avengers Endgame" eventually had each of the Marvel Avengers members recruiting their whole crew to help in the fight, I think SM is setting it up so that all of its groups' members will eventually be brought into the fight. So, if you follow EXO's storyline, in EXO's "Obsession" MV we learn that the good guys are the members in the all black outfits, and in "Jopping" we see SuperM's "Avengers uniform" is similar all black outfits. So in the scene in "Don't Call Me," when we see SHINee all together in those black outfits, it looks as though they might be preparing to join in the fight. And because of this, I think people need to pay attention to all of the storylines with all of SM's groups, because I think at least all of SM's third generation groups' MVs and storylines -- and probably even now their 4th gen. groups with the introduction of aespa in 2020 -- are being designed to connect stories and plots. Each group has their own individual storyline and concept, but when you put them all together, there are threads of connections between the groups. And that includes SuperM, EXO, Red Velvet, NCT/WayV, aespa, and maybe even Taemin's solo work, and possibly even SHINee. Even though SHINee are second gen, they actually fit within the age group of third generation groups, so they sort of bridge that gap between 2nd and 3rd gen. That is why I think that even though SHINee are part of the second generation, that SM is now working on bringing them into the storyline. And although most of SM's older groups' concepts and MVs may have never been originally designed to have any type of connection to anything to do with anything, that doesn't necessarily mean that over the years as EXO's story has evolved or SM's Universe concept was being created, that SM didn't find "happy coincidences" within those MVs that allowed them to use them as a way to connect things together. For example, some have pointed to the fact that Ningning's butterfly in aespa's concept from 2020 could be connected to the butterfly in EXO's debut "Mama" MV from 2012, as well as the butterfly in NCT-127's recent "Favorite (Vampire)" MV from 2021, and some have made compelling arguments that it could even be connected to SHINee's butterfly in their "Ring Ding Dong" MV from 2009. Or the blue roses we see in Taemin's "Press Your Number" MV from 2016 may be connected to EXO's flower/blue rose concept, etc. Now I'm not completely convinced that SM would reach back that far, but it makes you question and consider things. :D I mean we see what looks like the pink planet from Super Junior's "House Party" MV and a scene from Super Junior-K.R.Y.'s "When We Were Us" MV from 2020 in "aespa's ep.1 - SM Culture Universe" video. And SM has even brought Kangta, who is a member of the very first Kpop boy group H.O.T., which debuted in 1996, into the storyline with his solo MV remake of H.O.T's song "Free to Fly." And Max Changmin from TVXQ joins the world of Kwangya in his solo "Devil" MV when we see him on the pink planet, etc. So it's starting to look like SM may be hinting at bringing everyone into the storyline, including their older groups and artists. You should check out SHINee's behind the scenes video for "Don't Call Me." This will give you a glimpse into the member's personalities and what SHINee are like as a group, and you will discover some fun behind the scenes information. For example, you will see that that book that Onew was reading was actually created specifically for this MV, and if you read the pages that Onew has open, you will see that it contains the lyrics of the song.

[@rytovaar4311]

Hope you'll check out members solo stuff. Key and Minho are rappers of the group

[@Saddlemomma]

Welcome to SHINee World! Thank you so much for checking them out. They and their individual solo work are the ONLY Kpop group I listen to other than some of SuperM because Taemin (maknae of SHINee) is also a member of that group. There is a reason why the melody is different --- because it's a SHINee song. Genres don't matter; they do it all, even musical theater ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZC2i6BoeJp5rNk ) and Opera ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3OZlGihYrOdq7M ). They have always been extremely experimental. Let me introduce you to these legendary artists of Kpop. This is an all-round group. They ALL do it all: 5 singers, 5 rappers, 5 dancers, 5 soloists, 5 songwriters. There are no weak links. As a much older group, (debuted in May, 2008) most reactors don't bother trying their music because they are hyped by the newer generations. What many don't realize is that SHINee are much of the reason why they so enjoy those newer groups. SHINee set the Kpop group standards (called the "SHINee Standard": kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJObYauveq14pbM and kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3XVhmidpZp3jsU ) and started most of the trends that made 3rd & 4th gen groups so appealing to the world. How so? Well, SHINee are the group that pioneered live singing while performing much more complex, synchronized choreos. Prior to SHINee, groups relied on backing tracks rather than live vocals, and their choreos weren't as innovative or challenging. Thanks be to Taemin for always wanting to up the ante on their dancing. He was just so young at debut (14 Intl. age) but so far advanced in his dancing abilities (self-taught beginning at 10) that he wanted to continue challenging himself. Dance practice videos are a thing because of SHINee's 2010 "Lucifer" DP video ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/pafdpZmmjLWia68 ) which created a wave that was quickly embraced by other groups and has become almost a requirement today. Being a very experimental group without boundaries, SHINee also introduced the Kpop industry to new genres like Dubstep in their 2013 song, "Everybody" ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnzFf4ljaceSnZo ) and Deep House with 2015's "View" written by Jonghyun ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3eYZJamqap4a80 ). Those are just the most major trends set by SHINee. There are many, many more. SM struck gold when they put SHINee together as a group. I'm not sure even they knew how influential and monumental the outcome would become. It turns out each member was insanely talented even prior to debut. We have Jonghyun and Onew (who you recognized from Descendants of the Sun) who have the most beautiful voices in S. Korea and just blew everyone away. Jonghyun was a master at songwriting and composing. Key is a sassy bundle of energy and sauce who can memorize any dance just by watching it once. In addition, due to his insane fashion sense, he became SHINee's fashion designer and subsequently an actual SM fashion director in 2015. Minho, our flaming charisma athlete and actor, who wrote all his own rap segments for each SHINee song. He has even more songwriting credits than Jonghyun. Taemin, who couldn't sing at debut due to immature vocal cords, who became one of the best male soloists ever seen by Kpop starting in 2014 with his solo debut, "Danger" ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3-xfmecnZyYoaM ) thanks to tutelage from Jonghyun and Onew. With his debut, Taemin became SM's first-ever male soloist from an active group, earning him the forever nickname of SM's "ACE". He is now not only a member of SHINee, but a renowned and the most prolific SHINee soloist and member of a second SM group, SuperM, which debuted in 2019. Taemin is also widely known throughout the industry as the best dancer in Kpop, often referred to as the Michael Jackson of Kpop ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6CUaX9plLCWZrs ). Live stages/performances are where SHINee truly shine. They are just insane and their vocals sound even better or just as good as their recorded vocals, all while performing such complicated choreos. In addition, because they each have such unique voices, when their vocals come together to harmonize, it's phenomenal, like listening to angels singing ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/mH-0naJqobScna8 ). Their concepts for their 3 to 3.5 hour-long concerts are just as unique as them, fun, intense, high-octane, yet without any pretense or showboating. It's like a huge, friendly party every single time. In fact, many of their earlier concepts are still "borrowed" by newer groups today with their own spin added in. I can think of at least 4 past SHINee concepts borrowed by BTS alone. As such, it's always a huge compliment to see younger groups honor SHINee's continuing legacy in that way. Therefore, it's always best to watch their live performances rather than MVs, although those are excellent as well. (Individual performances from concerts don't usually incur copyright strikes and are safe.) SHINee are very humble guys who consider themselves brothers. In fact, their closeness is also legendary in the industry ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4HLnGN3i6lpqZI ). They have grown up together, and as they have said several times, they have spent more time together than with their parents. They practically raised baby Taemin who entered SM at 12 and was just 14 at debut in 2008. You will never find a more unpretentious, loving, and honest relationship as with SHINee. They are very vocal and demonstrative about their brotherly love for one another and their fans. That is why it was so hard when Jonghyun tragically passed away in 2017. It was an extremely painful blow, yet their love for one another and Jonghyun allowed them to carry on and fulfill Jonghyun's wish of SHINee forever. At their pre-planned 2018 concert, which they agreed to do despite the circumstances, they and SHAWOLs (SHINee fans) grieved together and said goodbye to their fallen brother. Onew stated that SHINee will always be 5, equaling 5HINee! ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYelh6uefNCUo5o ). To this day, they still honor Jonghyun in everything they do through their songwriting and by leaving space for him in their choreos. I only mention this because I'm not sure you were aware of this or not and didn't want you to be shocked when you see clips from 2018 onward with only four physical members. Some live performances that have been very safe to react to and give you a taste of just how good their live vocals are: "Sherlock": kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2XTeoGXnaeiiLs (legendary live performance of this song.) "Stranger": kzbin.info/www/bejne/gF7GgoZ8mpl9d5I (Jonghyun's long, perfect high note) "Hitchhiking": kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZurfX2qZc6Gl80 (INSANE [and dangerous] staging and performance. Live Band.) "Evil": kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4KTfWmijpeln68 (Dark, Dramatic, & Theatrical) "Romeo & Juliette": kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2Sto6mcYrRprZY (R&B perfection & Jonghyun's adlibs slay) "Why So Serious": kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6CYfouErM6iipY (Rock; Serious harmonies; Taemin pops OFF!) "One Minute Back": kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpnYZHmfhbJ7p9E (One of their many experimental tracks & HARMONIES!) "Sleepless Nights: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWikq6yCetGmjqs (Gorgeous ballad and HARMONIES!) "Our Page", 2018: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZjcoGyjiZenraM (A song written by all the brothers to honor Jonghyun & their feelings for him.) "Area", 2022: kzbin.info/www/bejne/narVcqGwd5igsM0 (A song written by Minho to state how they all still feel the loss of Jonghyun.) Thanks again & enjoy!

[@azy2705]

I’m so glad to see this video. please react to other music videos (especially live concert videos) Even after years, Shinee is in a completely different place for me, they are a group that I have followed tirelessly since their debut. They are so precious

[@memz982]

Pls more reaction of shinee🥺

[@Keke88]

OMG -- this is just the tip of the iceberg for SHINee -- they have a vast, amazing discography. I love Your Number, Lucifer, Ring Ding Dong, and Sherlock. Onew has the fantastic voice and so do they others -- they have all had solo careers too. Key just released Gasoline and it is fire. Pun intended. Taemin is in the military right now. Looking forward to their new releases once he is released. Thanks for reacting to this legendary group. Minho had a banger song too called Heartbreak.

[@Amanda-im4so]

I only recently found through member Key’s recently sing Gasoline, which is bomb 💣

[@ipekyener6513]

Watching the music video with you again reminded me how they still look like rookie groups despite even the youngest being almost 30 years old lol

[@totorohawkeye3109]

I'm guessing you can find out about who the SHINee members are online. But if you need some detailed song recommendations, here's some advice : ~ MVs ~ - Replay (2008) It's a must since it's their debut song (2008). A really cute song in which Taemin (the youngest) was 14 and Onew (the eldest) was 18. I recommend the "Shinee world IV" performance - it was a few years later but really shows their evolution and it gets you emotional. - Ring Ding Dong (2009) An iconic song which is basically kpop's rickroll (got banned during exam period because of how addictive it is). They used a lot of autotune which makes it even funnier but you can also find live performances with their raw, awesome vocals. - Juliette (2010?) First shinee song to be written by Jonghyun. - Lucifer (2012 I think) It took me time to enjoy it but it also gets stuck in your head. The live performances are iconic and the dance is powerful. - Hello (2012) A very cute song with shy-nee. - Sherlock (2012) Also iconic, check out the SHINee world IV performance as well! - Everybody (2013) The choreography is pretty cool and the concept is interesting. - View (2015) Basically introduced deephouse in kpop. It gives off a fresh summer vibe and still feels new 8 years later. Literally a bop. Written by Jonghyun, with interesting lyrics about synesthesia. - Married to the music (2013) The halloween concept suits them so well, truly a bop. - 1 of 1 (2016) A cool retro concept with nice vocals as always. - Tell me what to do (2016) My personal favorite. This song is so underrated. They slayed the visuals, the choreo, the outfits, and the vocals are incredible. You can listen to it while crying or while enjoying a summer trip thanks to its versatility. Also the MV is interesting with a lot of symbolism. - Good Evening (2018) First comeback with only four members (I guess you will find out about what happened to Jonghyun). It's interesting because it also contains lots of symbolism (maybe references to The Little Prince, one of Jonghyun's favorite books). Also the choreography is pretty cool: they don't look at the camera to show how they chose to focus on themselves instead of focusing on the show during this rough period. - Our Page (2018) You've got to read the lyrics and know about the context to understand this one. Lyrics were written by shinee. - Don't call me (2021) Less symbolism but hella powerful and really enjoyable with a difficult choreo. - Winter wonderland A japanese title, perfect christmas song. I missed a lot of their MVs here, tbh I'd recommend them all but I had to force myself not to put too many. ~ B-sides ~ - Odd Eye Odd eye is THAT song fr. It's sensual, epic, and they can also show off their vocals. Check out the live performance at Inkigayo, it's truly a must and the outfits just suit them so well!! Written by Jonghyun. - Who waits for love The live performance where they're wearing black outfits is really mesmerising. It feels somehow sad but it's also super elegant and Key and Minho's rap parts are epic. - Diamond sky This song hits right in the feels. In the 2017 version it was meant as a gift for fans I think. In the 2018 version however, it's just heartwrenching but also beautiful. Check out the live performances. Their vocals are just superior. - Excuse me miss Check out the most viewed live performance. The song itself is already good but on this live performance they're on fire, especially Jonghyun. - An encore Sang in every concert since 2015. It's really emotional and comforting. - Evil Really cool, btw they danced to it with blindfolds even tho the choreo's pretty fast. - Orgel This song is underrated and somehow both sexy and creepy. It's really interesting to listen to. - Stranger Just for the epicness of that World IV performance. - From now on Sang as a tribute for Jonghyun during their first concert without him back in 2018, it just makes me cry like a baby, but it's worth listening to it for the sake of their beautiful voices. - Body rhythm Another sensual bop, it's so good believe me. - Kiss kiss Also a bop. - Selene 6.23 If you're into soft, moving ballads. This one was also written by Jonghyun. - Dynamite Just check out the live perf for some abs-- nvm. - A-yo Just in case you needed a serotonin boost. - Feel good Really cool too. Alright imma stop here lmao, just let me know if you need more recommendations! Also check out their live stages because sometimes it's honestly even better than the studio versions! Give a try to their solo works too, they've got some pretty awesome stuff! And if you want recommendations of videos/shows that will allow you to know more about them individually or as a group, feel free to ask! Enjoy!

Finally, SHINee, the most talented group and unique vocals, additionally, each member has a very successful solo career, it all puts them so high and says how great an icon SHINee is in this industry. You reacted to TAEMINA and he is a member of this group so you will not regret it when you get to know more of their songs, especially their cult debut and the song REPLAY, this is icon

[@remixedv]

The Onew vocal appreciation, I'm here for it. The bass hits. The track is fire. Great reaction.

You may also like Advice by Taemin, a song he released right before going to the military.

[@noemibernal4882]

He already reacted to it and loved it

[@jumitsu]

I watched your reactions to Taemin a while ago and I'm so glad you're reacting to his group now! 😁 I won't repeat what many have said before but I'll just say one thing: SHINee never disappoints 💎✨ I will be subscribing to your channel and hope you will consider reacting to their music as a group and as soloists. I'll leave some suggestions below: SHINee: Lucifer + Ring Dong Dong (live remix), View (MV), Stranger (SWC4), Excuse Miss (SWC4), Atlantis (MV) Taemin: IDEA, Thirsty, Black Rose KEY: Bad Love, Gasoline Onew: Blue, DICE Minho: Heartbreak, I’m Home Jonghyun: Crazy, Deja Boo, Shinin If you want to really dive deep into the group, I recommend starting from the beginning with their debut MV called Replay and considering reacting to a guide 🙂 If 14 years difference between Don't Call Me and Replay seems a little scary, I recommend watching some live performances first (as I left in the suggestions)

[@jumitsu]

I forgot to mention that KEY made their solo comeback at the end of August and I believe you can really like the song and especially the meaning of the lyrics, since Gasoline is for KEY as Advice is for Taemin in relation to the message they want to broadcast to the industry!

[@lilnctlover6035]
