React SHINee “Stranger” SWC IV

[@charismaticace8971]

Jonghyun i love u! SHINee’s Main Vocalist..legendary! Yes...

[@fayla8127]

jonghyun was around 20 here i think, two years after his debut. i love this song so much, thank you for reacting to it

[@eyla107]

man jonghyun was just killing it

[@KSS352]

This song is literally just, "We are just going to continuously slap you in the face with our vocals."

[@milindawilson9175]

SM The Ballad is an SM project group which consists of SM's best vocalists. There are more artists who are part of this project -- because SM is full of crazy amazing vocalists -- but for their "Hot Times" MV it included Jonghyun who is the main vocalist from SHINee, who was the one that you were really impressed with his high notes; Kyuhyun who is one of the main vocalist of Super Junior; Jay who is the main vocalist of Trax which was SM's rock/EDM band; and Jino who was an SM trainee at the time, but left the company, became a vocal coach and now is the main vocalist of the Kpop group Pentagon. This song sounds like a song that D.O. might sing because it was produced by Yoo Young Jin who is a very famous SM singer, composer and producer who has been the vocal coach for basically all of SM's idols. You have actually probably even heard D.O. and Yoo Young Jin singing together if you have ever heard the album version of EXO's/D.O.'s "Tell Me What is Love." And if you have watched Super Junior's "Sorry Sorry Answer" MV, then you have heard Yoo Young Jin do the adlibs and background vocals in that song as well. As a producer, Yoo Young Jin is often the one that creates the most iconic moments in SM's songs and performances.

[@fayla8127]

i love that when u listen to some of jonghyun's songs his voice sounds SO soft and gentle. and other times it's the opposite, rings like a bell, can't describe it.

[@itsmyblahs]

SM is really a house full of incredible vocalists, no doubt. Jonghyun's highnotes/runs or what the members call 'kkyyoong' is just off the charts!

[@amberlee9988]

Enjoying Jonghyun effortlessly high note

[@LondonBlue]

The live performance of Hot Times is legendary!

[@ashdee24]

ah yes, it's 'vocal runs' the song - a classic! 😂

[@KaeDrama]

They were straight flexing on this song lol

[@Dearest_Kenyetta]

Yes they were!! 😂 I love every minute of it too.

[@silvEEEr.8604]

omg i wonder if you guys know "sorry sorry answer"? it's sung by Super Junior K.R.Y (and Yoo Youngjin in the MV). One of the member sang in this SM The Ballad too, he is Kyuhyun.

[@jess-gl1tj]

one of the best songs i've ever heard in my life, the vocals on that song are out of this world

[@SanjiKicks]

They all singing like professor Yoo Young Jin its just heaven

[@NyShawol]

Jonghyun, my amazing fantastic phenomenal breath-taking incredible man

[@Julianna_w]

I'm so glad you're checking this out. SM The Ballad was a remarkable project which started around 2010 and ran for a few years, involving some of the best 2nd and 3rd gen vocalists in the SM label. This particular group of 4 guys did 2 songs together. Their vocal agility absolutely slayed Hot Times. Another viewer has given a rundown of the guys. Another fun fact which I've read a few years ago - Jinho (the guy with the bow tie) who's now with Pentagon was actually set to be a member of EXO but he left SM and D.O. was drafted to replace him. No shade on Jinho though - the universe works in unexpected ways and Jinho is meant to be with Pentagon as much as D.O. is with EXO 😉

[@l.c.6282]

I never knew this, about Jinho and D.O. Jinho would certainly fit as an SM vocalist but I could never imagine him outside of Pentagon.

[@Julianna_w]

@@l.c.6282 yeah I was surprised when I read it. Not sure how true the news is though. I can imagine him being a good fit in EXO

[@a_efimchik]

last year Jinho said that he was never meant to be in exo, he was about to debut in another group right before exo but something went wrong

[@user-hs7bv6on5j]

I believe this original comment is incorrect… it’s not that jinho just abandoned SM when he was supposed to be in exo. He said the company’s plan for him didn’t align with the career direction he wanted to go in (vague ikr). SM basically planned to put him in a co-ed vocal centric group but he just wanted to be in a traditional boy group, which did eventually happen with pentagon :)

[@samseloo4962]

I feel like Jonghyun stopped singing in this style as his career progressed. Early in his career he would do very piercing vocals and very bombastic stuff like this. Then it changed to more deeper or smoothe/softer

[@Lupita311]

He said that before being a DJ he only listened to R&B but after it he discovered other genres that he could sing.

[@Ibtissamkorean]

He got injured actually. That’s why he couldn’t sing anymore like before.

[@triplej8666]

@@Ibtissamkorean Not true. Jonghyun had no major technical change after 2013 to 2017.

[@laurengoliath9129]

“Is he okay?” 🤣🤣🤣

[@orangeapplecandy4504]

Wow I don’t expect to find the reaction of this song, but honestly it is one of my top K pop ballad songs. If you have time, please check “Raining spell for love” live clip by Super Junior. (Kyuhyun the one who sing Hot Time is also sing this song)

[@SanjiKicks]

It sounds like something DO would sing cause this song was produced by Yoo Young Jin who is a composer, producer e vocal teacher from a basically all SM idols. The song Tell Me What Is Love is sung by him and DO and that's why its similar to you. Both songs were composed and arranged by the one and only Yoo Young Jin.

[@Scxarfaxce]

I need another singer reaction to this

[@jaquenile]

Please react to sorry sorry answer (the live version) by super junior, they are three of the best vocalists in kpop: kyuhyun, ryeowook and yesung (kyuhyun is in this one you react it) ♡

[@krystalized6]

i used to have this song on repeat....

[@deureop]

jonghyun was a baby omg also jinho doing this as a trainee???? why tf did sm not keep him

[@izone2607]

They just choose between D.O and Jinho so that’s why .

[@deureop]

@@izone2607 apparently that was just a rumor and jinho was never meant to be in exo, he was going to be in another boy group but the company gave up on that project so jinho left, then KS joined.

[@macipiink]

Tbh theres not a krnb with more vocal acrobatics than this one lol like the ULTIMATE krnb song. Almost sounds like a whole choir, they went tf off. KYUHYUNS AGILITY? TOP 5

[@bandotaku]

Sorry Sorry Answer comes real close though.

[@Runa_idk]

and their live version of this song is just as good

[@Lupita311]

Jonghyun is amazing, Kyunhyun Jay and Jino are just as great. You guys know Taemin and some Shinee, but somehow you have missed Jonghyun's body of work. And completely missed him on your Shinee reactions.

[@flowergirl311m3]

Kim Jonghyun 😇

[@jpk5744]

no one...literally NO ONE can bit Jonghyun in kpop......

[@ernanj6992]

My Angel JONGHYUN SHINee🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💎💎💎💎💎

[@DREAM-re2up]

Wow you dug into SM The Ballad. This company has a ton of great singers and then the company decided to do a vocal flex group/albums with all their best Female and Male vocalists

[@Mevsoymusummmm182]

Jonghyun ❤️💎

[@Deemo202]

Lmao I was waiting for his reaction when he heard the high note at the end 🤣

[@margiebauers7018]

Great reaction 👍 these guys are absolutely amazing! Can you react to Jonghyun (main vocalist from SHINee) his solo and performance with his band is brilliant. Would love to hear your reaction. 💞

[@backtosleepagain]

please more reactions to thiss, its so underrated :(

[@mayla787]

Jonghyun🤍

[@hallymay4296]

Soo glad you react to this mv (song)👍👍

[@user-bl7wh2ql4c]

God, this is a timeless favorite, I wish sm would bring their units back

[@Ouell0630]

Where the TRAXIAN & Universe? Jjong was everything on this. But Jay & Jinho did not slouch. 🙌🏾

[@xatunlaja]

Kyuhyun

[@mi1125]

I know that’s RIGHTTT!! Just seeing Albert smile on the thumbnail is already telling me what I need to know. Haven’t even watched the vid yet but I know that this one will get him. Oh btw! Will you upload the blocked Enhypen reaction on patreon?

[@Koko3op]

Hey Maria! Yes I will upload it nowww!

[@brigonz_]

I love this reaction video

[@Jjong-90]

I have all the sm cds the made since 2009-2010 only because of Shinee or Jonghyun you should check Breath with Taeyon and A day without you with Chen that s when I fell for Jjong and while he gave lessons to exo members he said that Chen had a natural talent he wouldn’t be able to help only by maturing is singing would deepen and god knows Chen did ❤ Our Jjong with a magical ball 😂 Mind you when HOT times was released he was 18-19 lol and already surpassed everyone ❤️ In 2015 he found out he had nodules but unlike Onew he decided not to anything because he says his voice was perfect like that. I don’t what having nodules can do but I know that you can lose your voice a Japanese singer had it did the surgery and was never able to sing again !

[@Dearest_Kenyetta]

This is my JAM! Jonghyun 😥.

[@CrossJeniel]

Yo

[@prescillasabalbarino4601]

Fans of Jonghyun won't let him RIP, lol. U can react him but not adored him too much, geez!

[@Koko3op]

We live on a planet where millions worship a guy that died on a cross for their sins and have done for millennia. If people wanna adore Jonghyun for a little let them lol
