Metal Vocalist - Taemin Advice MV ( FIRST TIME REACTION )

[@LotusBloom0309]

OMG, John! Taemin is a legend. He is the youngest member of Shinee, and is one of the most talented idols in the industry. He is a sweetheart of a person, but when he performs, it’s like he is possessed by a demon. Very much like Jimin of BTS. In fact, they are friends who have performed together. I strongly recommend you check out his songs, Criminal, Idea, Danger and Move.

[@jennettelovelace5626]

Also Want and Black rose are amazing. He's amazing live and one of the top dancer of his generation and in the industry.

Taemin is the King of Kpop. The Blueprint for male solos. As you see, his artistry, music and concepts are different from mainstream. He is really unique and the best dancer in kpop. I suggest IDEA..

[@raerae734]

Taemin debuted at 14 in 2008 and literally grew up in the spotlight, it's wild. Advice is the third and final part of a trio of songs (Criminal, then Idea) that philosophise on his relationship with celebrity, the media, and his identity as a pop star, Advice is kind of his coming to peace with who he is and deciding to go his own way regardless of how that's taken.They're all really interesting songs and all beautifully packaged (lyrics, song construction, music video, styling).

[@tatam1392]

About time you got to TAEMIN, he is the ultimate Kpop idol. Like most of comments say Criminal, Idea or strings will be great to react to. He is Great enjoy.

[@somewhereinthisworld3489]

Yesss also Move by Taemin is such a bop

[@TayTks]

A point a lot of people are missing is that Taemin is a metalhead himself and has even covered Korn in the middle of a SHINee concert (just SHINee things!!) In fact, most fans keep hoping/wishing he would release a rock or metal album. When the first teaser pictures for Advice started coming out we thought it would finally be the time but instead he surprised us with this. Which btw is one of his most different songs from the rest of his body of work (in an amazing way). I hope one day our wishes come true!

[@leoniferonnika]

Amen!

[@Bathorynukka]

Finally John ! Taemin is the one and only Ace of K-pop ! He’s been in the industry for 15 years, he was the youngest artist in his company to ever get a solo album, he was 21. He’s a dance genius, he’s a performance genius, he is worshipped by literally most of the industry even younger generations of K-pop. I’m glad you reacted to that song ! He definitely has a dark edge to his solo work … I’d suggest you react to criminal which is from the album just before Advice. It’s a killer song and a magnificent video. You could also react to his band SHINee ? Veterans of K-pop and they’re absolutely amazing … Thanks for spreading the Taemin greatness !

[@marm2034]

Other wonderful Taemin songs: Danger (solo debut), Move, Want, Criminal, & Idea,(the last two of which are part of a trilogy with Advice)!!!

[@NToTheXP]

Taemin’s discography is actually insane. If I could recommend any song from him it would definitely be Want. 🫰

[@gigglemethis]

Yes, Taemin!!!! His song "Criminal" is freakin' epic!!! I adore Taemin's artistry and since he and Jimin are besties and so similar in their styles, I just love them both! ❤️ Also he has many amazing songs with his band SHINee; my daughter and I love their fairly recent one "Don't Call Me".

[@anavolkhina6943]

Taemin and BTS Jimin are good friends, and they are both amazing dancers, I’m not a hard core fan of Taemin, but some of his songs are really great and worth listening to

[@markmybirds]

[@taemtastique]

the last time they were seen tgt was like 2016-2017. they were acquainted through sungwoon, hence just acquaintances. taemin’s close friends are more of Kai, Moonkyu, Ravi and Kwonho (non-idol). just an fyi for those who dont know much about taemin’s circle of friends!

[@noemibernal4882]

Taemin = Pure art

[@Miraiwhitelock]

Taemin is one of the most iconic kpop idols. He's known as being the best dancer in the entirety of kpop. Dance experts actually rated all the idols and listed the top 3 best dancers of kpop as: 1. Taemin (Shinee) 2. Kai (EXO) 3. Ten (NCT/Wayv) Funny thing is that these are all groups from SM. SM has the kpop idols with the best vocals and best dance skills in the industry.

[@soniachinye1286]

[@cashmeredelicate1373]

Pls do reaction to other Taemin mvs too ☺️ 'Move' 'Sayonara Hitori' 'Criminal' 'Idea' 'Danger' - so many 🤭

[@sjames1955]

Taemin has been an idol for more than half of his life at this point. He's from Shinee who are known as the Princes of Kpop and he is widely regarded as the best dancer in Kpop. Many younger idols look up to Shinee and many other artists have covered them. Also check out Shinee Key's Gasoline and Bad Love. They are all crazy talented and accomplished.

[@NguyenAn-lm8ex]

Since each of Taemin's songs is different from others, you can try: Criminal, Idea, Move

[@margueritabonner4706]

Yes he plays the piano and sings plus dance

[@nneichan9353]

Move is my favorite.

[@tatiarrochela8873]

[@itstheeyeliner7714]

amazing artist. one of the best dancers in kpop, i think we all agree. also a good friend of jimin. they have a performance together. he kind of revolutionized what was expected of idols once their group was no longer active. as in, shinee (his group) was very successful but later he also was as a solo artist, plus he wasn't afraid of expressing himself (bc he debuted so young, i think fourteen, there were certain expectations or prejudices when he started solo, but he just demolished them and did his thing) anyway, if you're listening to him, you have to listen to "move".

[@lioraleeann692]

Omg, DUDE! You like NEED to react to more Taemin! He's 2nd Gen, idol of idols, plays piano and guitar, mj of kpop, king of kpop, one of the princes of kpop(with SHINee his original group), started at 14(!), first to go solo in his group, also put in Super m in 2019.

[@ShawolOT5]

Excellent recommendation!!! Yes, Taemin is an incredible pianist. So, this is actually the culmination of a trilogy. The prologue is “2 Kids”, but the trilogy itself is “Criminal”, “IDEA”, then “Advice”. All the songs have multiple layers of meanings, but the underlying message and theme is Taemin’s internal struggle between idol-Taemin and IRL-Taemin. “Criminal” touches on Stockholm Syndrome…being a willing captive to his idol persona. “IDEA” deals with Plato’s Theory of Idea: Form vs Identity…fighting to merge into one true self rather than two halves. “Advice” is basically his mic drop to the industry that has tried to conform him into their perfect idea of an idol, telling them to take his own advice and not push him around, that he’s going to stay true to himself. He’ll get tattoos if he wants (“destroying” his torso) - which is why he finally revealed his beautiful hip tattoo…the smeared makeup…androgynous clothing/hair…female backup dancers. No matter what, he’s going to do what he wants and the more they try to stop him, the faster he’ll shut them down. Btw, these are my opinions and interpretations, based partially on what Taemin has said himself and my own supposition. 2 Kids - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYa9g3ufZdCbacU (Freestyle choreography) Criminal - kzbin.info/www/bejne/nne0fWp4iJufqNU IDEA - kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYbZgISioLGBnqc

I love 2 Kids! It might be the smoooothest classic breakup pop I've ever heard. His dancing in the MV is so emotional. This was what got me interested in him.

[@JohnReavesLive]

heck yes Shadow! does he play piano live!?

[@shadow_sigyn]

@@JohnReavesLive He did play piano live several times in his concerts, but mostly not. He is one of the best dancers in Kpop, and he mostly focuses on dancing choreography when performing his songs.

[@maroon3973]

@@JohnReavesLive he does play piano live for few of his songs during concerts, but he's mostly a performance-based artist meaning he focuses more into performing than into playing music. However this guy is a whole package of an artist that everything he shows is basically his creations. Nothing goes without him supervising his own works. He chooses the director for his MVs himself, goes over every scene during editing for his MVs too. Same thing goes for his choreographers, he revises the routine himself, or freestyle if he needs too. Even his back up dancers are handpicked coz he's so good he needs to be with the best dancers as well. You like dark concepts? Then you find the best artist ever that is notorious and well known for his distinctive style than other kpop artists. No one does dark avant-garde concept properly but taemin, tbh. He's so respected in the industry for being able to 'create' such genre. Try listen to "Criminal" or "Idea", those are my recommendations now. Thanks for reacting for Taemin 😊

[@sophieb1829]

omg I've been obsessed with the dance practice for this song lately!! I've only gotten into Taemin this year but he is AMAZING!

I'm not into BTS, so I don't watch most of your videos, but I'm all here for everything else. I liked your anime videos, and I also like when you watch other k-pop artist. I highly suggest some other Taemin songs, like Criminal, Move, and Idea. If you want to check out another kpop artist that is super popular, I suggest you check out Chung Ha, my all time favorite songs from her are "Stay Tonight", "Play" and "Dream of You". She's one of the big queens of kpop solo artists.

[@rylietiara]

The Michael Jackson OF K-POP, thee TAEMIN🙌🏻 an absolute ICON

[@Saddlemomma]

As you have noticed, Taemin is quite different from your standard Kpop idol, and yes, he is really playing the piano. In fact, as per the industry and his long-time fans (SHAWOLs and Jjakoonggs)Taemin isn't an "idol at all"; he's an artist -- unique, and legendary within the industry. He has a very different approach to music which is shared by his also legendary group SHINee. They debuted together in 2008 when Taemin was just 14. As a rare, self-taught dancer, Taemin taught himself by copying the moves of his favorite artists by dancing in front of his mirror beginning at 10. By 12 he auditioned at the extremely difficult open Saturday auditions for SM. Thousands would attend these auditions and only eight have ever been selected. Taemin was one of them. He became one of the youngest to ever debut at that time. Although he is a tremendous dancing machine and known to be the best in Kpop, Taemin couldn't sing at debut. His vocal cords were too immature at the time. With the tutelage of his two senior brothers (two of the best in all of Kpop), Jonghyun and Onew, by 2012, Taemin was getting more and more singing lines and with all his hard work, in 2014 he became SM's first-ever soloist from an active boy group. From there on Taemin became SM's "ACE" and he has churned out hits ever since. He can sing just about any genre, including Metal, Rock, Jazz, R&B, Ballads, Musical Theater, etc (just like all SHINee members). As a self-avowed workaholic, Taemin is an active member of both SHINee and SuperM, while also a soloist. Currently he is completing his military duties, but we are eagerly awaiting his return in early March, 2023. "Advice" was his parting gift to us (literally two weeks before enlisting). All of Taemin's SHINee brothers are just as inventive and creative with their music. SHINee, as a group, have been the trendsetters and innovators of Kpop since their debut. They set the vocal and performance standards very high, which all groups strive to achieve. SHINee were the ones who started the trend of singing live 95% of the time while performing the most complex and extremely synchronized choreos Kpop had ever seen. Prior to SHINee, groups lip-synched heavily during live performances and performed much less involved choreos. Each SHINee performance got progressively more difficult (thanks be in large part to Taemin always pushing for more), igniting the trend to catch up with them. In 2010 it was "Lucifer", which spawned the new trend of dance practice videos once they released the DP for "Lucifer" ; 2012 introduced "Sherlock"; followed in 2013 by "Everybody" and "Dream Girl". Other groups, across company lines, borrowed their concepts and tweaked them to add their own flavor. I know of at least four BTS concepts that saw their origins from SHINee. This is a compliment to the staying power of an iconic senior group and shows their lasting legacy in the Kpop world. They have been together going on 15 years now and have promised to keep pumping out music as long as they physically can do so. With such a vast discography to choose from, whether from their solo efforts or together as a group, you are bound to find more that you like. I would suggest the following to get started: From Taemin: "Criminal" MV (more MJ moves - part 1 of a cohesive storyline for his 2020, 2-pt. "Never Gonna Dance Again" [NGDA] album) "IDEA" MV (a total thrill ride with insane dancing - part 2 of the NGDA storyline. "Advice" was the epilogue to the story) "Famous" MV (Japanese but has been safe - speed, popping, locking, isolations and smooth.) "Want" MV (A lesson in the pitfalls of dark temptations. Actually a retelling of Genesis 3 of the Bible) "Move" MV (The song and choreo that brought the Kpop world to it's knees with "Move" Disease - everyone caught it. Slow, smooth, methodical, and introduced the industry to the first androgynous choreo.) "Danger" Live: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3-xfmecnZyYoaM (Taemin's solo debut song & this live shows you why he's the ACE of SM.) From Key: "Gasoline" MV (an explosion of rapping, dancing, and visual feast - the fashion is insane) "Bad Love" MV (retro scifi treat) "One of Those Nights" MV (my favorite and very lyrical) "Villan" Dance Practice (no MV - but GREAT song and the dance is fantastic) "Bound" Dance practice (Ditto above) From Onew: "Dice" MV (This is a cute, fun MV from our fluffy leader and eldest. The MV connects to SHINee's 2015 MV, "Married to the Music". From Minho: "Heartbreak" MV (Doppelganger scifi theme) From Jonghyun: Our dear one in heaven who is now the guardian angel for his brothers (We tragically lost him in 2017): "Crazy" MV (Dark and dramatic. Jjong probably had the best vocals in the entire Kpop industry. He is greatly missed.) "Deja Boo" MV: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipTZdYVrrd9sbck hard to find so provided a link "She Is" MV For SHINee, since you like Metal, I would suggest their more "Rock" type songs. It's always best to react to them live. Concerts are usually fine to react to. "Why So Serious": kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6CYfouErM6iipY (listen to those live vocals & harmonies) "Hitchhiking": kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZurfX2qZc6Gl80 (this is an INSANE performance & the staging is unreal) "Picasso": kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZKug4xqr5Z2Z6M (Taemin going nuts at the end.) "Lucifer Remix": kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGLVhYJ5ramboKM (Poor Minho said he was in agony on those cables and you see it on his face while rapping.) "Sherlock": kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2XTeoGXnaeiiLs (not necessarily Rock, but EVERYONE should see this masterpiece and it's a right of passage for anyone reacting to SHINee...lol.) "Stranger": kzbin.info/www/bejne/gF7GgoZ8mpl9d5I (a personal favorite of mine) "Dynamite": kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHq2hYKGhaiMhNk (I included this because we SHAWOLs like to chuckle and say this is the earlier "R" version of BTS's "Dynamite".) Enjoy & welcome to SHINee World.

[@hayeck38]

Lee Taemin is the most famous korean dancer and a very very great singer. the thing with taemin was in his group SHINEE his role was basicly the dancer with few lines to sing. coz everyone thought that he couldn't sing. but like Jin , he didn't give up and worked really bloody hard to get his amazing singing's level. now in korea when an idol make a good improvement in dance or singing skill , they call that an "taemin shot" or something 😅 l love all his songs, but for beginer i recommand "criminal" and "move"

[@stephanielemons2995]

Ok John, welcome to the world of k pop. There are so many artists, and there are 4 generations. 1st Gen started in the 90s. And even though the Korean culture ate it up, the western world had yet to see it or even know it existed. It was 2nd Gen that started the western ball rolling, (no pun intended). Now part of 2nd Gen was a Group called Shinee. A 5 member boy group that was amazing at dancing, and vocals. But it was also their fashion that got ppl to stop and then they would hear their incredible vocals. The 5 members were Onew, Kibum (Key for short) Jonghyun, Minho, and their Evil Maknae Taemin. Some of the songs they were known for were "Lucifer," (BTW, this was the very first k pop song I ever heard.) But also "Hello", "Why So Serious," "Ring Ding Dong," "Sherlock," "Juliette," "Clue/Note," but the song they debuted with back in 2008 was "Replay," with a maknae that was only 14 years old. Now keep in mind, these are not in order and these are there earlier work. You see Shinee is still together and still active. But there are only 4 members now, Onew, Key, Minho, and Taemin. Back in December 2017, one of their members, Jonghyun made a decision that not only changed k pop but we no longer get to hear his beautiful, angelic voice. He wasn't the only one we lost in k pop to that decision but that is for another time. All the members have had solo projects, including Jonghyun. And a lot of fans say that Taemin is the most successful as a solo artist. But he has been doing it the longest, due to the fact that the other three members had to go into the military. So while they were in, Taemin put out some music. Some songs before they went in are "Danger," "Press Your Number," and "Drip Drop." And some songs after they went in "Want," "Move" (my ultimate favorite of his), and one that I can't listen too, it actually gives me a migraine, but otherwise it is good and that would be "My Idea." Now again these aren't in order, but they are all amazing, but it's also a short list to start out with. Now two more items and I'll calm down. First, yes that is him playing the piano. He is also an amazing songwriter as well. And second, Taemin is considered to be at the top of the list when it comes to the best dancers in Korea. In many people's eyes, the Top 4 dancers are 1. Taemin 2. Kai of EXO, now 3 and 4 change depending on who you talk to, so for now we go with 3. Jimin and 4. J Hope. Now Taemin and Kai as well as Jimin are all very good friends, but it is Taemin and Kai who are best friends. And Taemin has the nickname of "The Michael Jackson of Korea." You speak to any k pop dancer nowadays, and all of them will say their influence was and still remains to be Taemin. Now Taemin is due to be released from military service pretty soon. And I for one am very grateful for that. Taemin was put thru hell in the military. He is one of the most well known and well liked k pop stars and most of them do fine in the military, with a few hiccups, but Taemin was betrayed by his own squad. Basically while he was in the bathroom taking a shower, his whole squad followed him into the showers, and several, if not most of them took photos of him while in the shower. Let's just say it hasn't been easy for him. But they did remove him from those barracks and sent him to civil service, which is another possible thing for idols to do to keep them safe, if they choose. Oh lord, I am so so sorry for rambling on. I truly meant to give you info about Taemin only. But I just kept going even after I said I would stop...I am so so sorry.. please forgive me John. I just wanted to give u info about Taemin. I do hope it helped, even just a little.

Question does taemin sing live YES he only sings live unless there is a reason he can't but I've never seen it happen. Shinee has trained running and singing for many hours to keep up with the hard chorio while doing three hours of hard hitting dance in concert. So when you hear him live that's our taemin and his heavenly voice. Thank you so much for this great reaction.

Ohhh, I'm an Army but I can tell you, Taemin is a legend, btw, he and Jimin are friends since like 2016 , they even danced together. He comes from a legendary band called Shinee. This is the last song he made before going to the military service, so, you're gonna see new a new album release as a soloist and with shinee next year when he finalizes the Military service.

[@milindawilson9175]

Taemin was one of the very first of SM's Idols who was still part of a group to go solo, and he debuted as a solo artist back in 2014 when he was 21 years old. He has been a solo artist for more than half his career and he has more than 11 solo albums, both Korean and Japanese albums, and he has held at least 3 solo concert tours with dozens of concerts all on his own. On top of having more than 13 full length albums, just as many repackaged albums, multiple mini albums, and OSTS, etc. as a member of SHINee, as well as more than 100 SHINee concerts. He also has 2 albums and a world concert tour as a member of SuperM, as well. Taemin knows what he is doing when it comes to creating art and holding his own as a solo artist. Taemin has released music every year since he debuted as a member of SHINee in 2008, either as a member of SHINee, as a solo artists, as a member of a project group or as a member of SuperM. He has officially debuted in 3 Kpop generations -- 2nd generation with SHINee in 2008, 3rd generation as a solo artist in 2014 and 4th generation with SuperM in 2019. He is one of the most popular male soloists in the Kpop industry and literally EVERYONE looks up to him as the blueprint for what it takes to be a successful solo artist.

[@Celebrenedhel40]

It can safely be said that Taemin is an Idol unto himself. There is no one quite like him and none of them should try. Advice is unique among his works. It has a very different sound, a different vibe. When I first heard it, my initial thought was "Oh, baby, who hurt you?" and as I continued listening, that thought changed to "Who the F- pissed Taemin off?". Imho, this song isn't just about the expectations of celebrity image vs real person placed on him by SM, but also by the fans as well, especially those that do not respect any sort of boundaries, even when requested to do so. Taemin will be doing his comeback this year, I believe, as his mandatory military service (which had been commuted to something else due to MH issues) and I look forward to seeing more of this stronger, more mature, very confident version of Taemin.

[@deegloss]

[@pauletteburgess9302]

I look forward to you watching more of taemon's performances as a soloist he's originally from Shinee and currently serving in the military and will be out next year. He's well known for his choreography and you should also watch the exhibition that he and jimin did together I don't remember where it was from but it's on KZbin someplace. Any of the songs people mentioned in the list I would also add sexuality there's a KZbin video of him performing it at one of his concerts live it's very similar to jimin's filter performance

[@jasmckenzie6980]

Taemin is amazing, utterly amazing can't wait to see you react to more, fun fact he debut in 2nd gen kpop with Shinee, debut as a solo in 3rd gen and debut again in 4th gen with SuperM a joint group with members from exo, nct and Taemin from Shinee, you can't go wrong with any Taemin song

[@stephaniegeer1691]

Taemin is a K Pop god!!!!he's freaking so talented and amazing!!!so glad your checking this out!!!on my birthday no less, my favorite on my day!!!thanks for making my day special!!✌out

[@eleonorestuart4089]

Taemin..my #1 favorite kpop idol..of all! So talented! And yes he plays piano very well!

[@shineeng_kriss7520]

I don’t know if you find out or realized by now that Taemin is a SuperM member and he is the one that stand out the most to you in your SuperM-One reaction 😉

[@ank5c4]

Ah welcome to Taemin!! I am Bangtan's Army forever, but there are some artists that make you sit up and take notice and Taemin's solo stuff (he's from SHINee) is definitely one of them! His dancing is what I first discovered and then found his music and mv's. He pushes boundaries and is different. And his ballads are gorgeous too. It's so polished and professional but yet raw expression as well. Definitely check out the MV's for Criminal, Idea, Flame of love, Danger, Famous, and the performance video duo version of Move, the dance performance or practice of Goodbye, and the performance of Door. I also love Rise, Black Rose, Soldier. He is one of the best dancers in the kpop industry (and he's friends with Jimin and they've performed together). He has been around for a loooong time and he is known as the idol's idol for a reason!

[@kesianapalmer2262]

You should check out his Criminal mv

[@Bibins_]

Taemin had a performance with Jimin. They’re both considered great dancers in kpop

[@bmstratton44]

Best two best dancers in my opinion 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@Bibins_]

@@bmstratton44 agree

[@gabriellahuszti5855]

Taemin💯💯

[@mollidew3643]

He has been playing piano since he was in elementary school. I watched him recording this song. It is outrageously difficult and then he learned the dance on top of that. He is the best dancer in all of South Korea. There is no one better. The only one close to him is Jhope, but they have different styles. Jimin has danced with him because yes they are friends but a computer analysis didn't rate him that close. Taemin was 94 something and Jimin was in the 70s but he is my bias in BTS and his cuteness makes up for it, lol. Taemin is a perfectionist. You need to hear other things. Listen to his critique of Snow Flower where he is just sitting in a chair singing or watch him sing it without that. You will then see how great a singer he is. Taemin has co-written a number of songs and he wins awards for dance performances. His genre is Pop, R&B and soul. And has been called the Michael Jackson of K-POP.

[@sunshinesam6399]

I’ve been obsessed with this song recently too! Glad you saw it, it’s one of my favorites

[@JohnReavesLive]

:) heck yes! thank you for watching it with me! he's such a great musician too!

[@kesianapalmer2262]

I’m not sure if it’s your flavour but another earlier Taemin project you should check it is his Sayonara Hitori mv

[@sandralittlewood550]

Taemin is a member of shinee he is on alternative military enlistment the moment due to mental health issues x he is doing much better and will be back next Yr when shinee will also have new music out x iv been a shawol for 5 years now and an army for 16 months now x love the reactions John xx

[@chenhsuanlin5218]

Taemin’s solo is just so good😚🤩

[@bellaswan9473]

He's the KING 💎

[@duna9251]

Hoping for more Taemin reactions ❤

[@sparkles1484]

Thanks for your reaction. I think you’d like the Taemin and Jimin showdown, it’s great! They are good friends too.

[@UKNOBTS]

Yes, you're definitely stalking my play list. Lol. I barely knew anything about kpop, before I found BTS, but even I had heard of Taemin, and Shinee. He's a legend at such a young age. I was lucky enough to see him live, when I saw SUPER M. in concert. He's an amazing dancer, performer, everything. Love that you watched this.

[@tuyenhoang3810]

TAEMIN's live stages and dance practices are always awsome TAEMIN is the different level. THE KING of kings

[@sujiv2671]

Yay, you found Taemin! Liked your focus on the different musical elements.

[@luizildaferreira6985]

Taemin perfeito 👌

[@bea_hae_tae9392]

TAEMIN represents what cannot be precisely defined in the approach to gender and role playing in the MV music video, and the choreography is so multidimensional and unpredictable that it is difficult to classify it into a specific genre. I am impressed that it pushes the boundaries once again and does not allow itself to be pigeonholed The piano he identifies with, women's clothing, makeup, and even some choreographies have been mixed to reflect the masculine and feminine aspect, and shows a beautiful tattoo that previously hid and symbolized freedom TAEMIN = TPOP Over 14 years in the industry and although he is currently serving in the military, we are all waiting impatiently for his return because he always impresses everyone just like you with his exceptional craftsmanship a moment ago He is a member of SHINee and SuperM 💎💎💎💎💎 NEXT Danger, ACE Concept Video 2KIDS ,Drip Drop,Criminal,IDEA,MOVE,WANT

[@Saddlemomma]

The crop-top suit isn't "female clothing" per se. It's actually a unisex Supreme suit. Supreme only makes unisex clothing for either sex.

[@parvindashti4606]

Taemin criminal mv please.

[@avotia]

I've been waiting for the whole video, if you realize that this is the same person that you liked in SuperM. lol

[@jenniehenshaw2800]

Idea, Want, Criminal, Danger. Adore Taemin, as you can see he is very different, artsy, unique. He is on his conscription at the moment, bless him, nearly done.

[@kesianapalmer2262]

If you like his dark side check out his Criminal mv, it was one of his earlier solo projects

[@Saddlemomma]

Actually, "Criminal" is one of his latest solo projects. It came out in 2020 with his album, "Never Gonna Dance Again" Act 1. Taemin became a soloist in 2014 and has about 10 other albums (when you count Japanese, mini-albums, & Korean albums together).

[@mimissoul6806]

KING TAEMIN I NEED MORE REACTION TO TAEMIN AND SHINEE

[@annemenard-guerin6975]

u already watch a bit of Jimin and Taemin performance. I love Taemin songs and personality. Press my number is one of my fav song of him 🤩

[@Aurore.B_1309]

I only discovered Taemin two weeks ago...but damned ! Rhythm, lyrics, dance, style... He makes me sweat ! 😅😊 I also love "Criminal" and "Want"...and some more soft too (Be your enemy, Just me and you, 2 kids...) 🤍

[@maryqueenmaryqueen2523]

Ohh, John, you don't know how big box of Pandora you open right now with Taemin 🤣🤣 Taemin established his own genre Tpop, and Advice is a final part of his Trilogy: Criminal, IDEA, and now Advice, it's utmost self-reflective and shows you his journey as an artist, both tracks are incredibly strong, suggest 1000%.

[@hayeck38]

oh and he's an great friend of jimin. they even did an amazing dance performance together

[@silviamunoz6863]

Taemin is Shinee's maknae. .. He (and Shinee) are awesome!! They were the only who catched my attention for a long time (I mean, except BTS). I recommend you to watch Shinee's Don't call me, Rin ding dong, Replay... they have a lot of good songs. They are a generation before BTS.
