Watch Part 2 of our first listen here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKKXinZqjL2MmJY And yes our reaction to aespa's Savage is on it's way along with an interview with its producers!!! 🙌 Sorry it's taking us so long, been struggling with burn out the past few weeks and am in transition of moving to a new place so editing content quickly has been tough >.

[@obedientlamb1521]

Take as much as time as you guys need. Take care of your health!

[@quintessentialparagon5255]

IVE - 'LOVE DIVE' MV Reaction please? Please also react to IVE bsides as well: 'ROYAL' , 'TAKE IT' you definitely need to check these two.

[@m.di.c.]

Now we've seen the stages and the fact that he danced AND sang live maybe the range for DICE was the best compromise to make.

[@STALKER777LK]

This.

[@user-qd3ee4mo9g]

His stage name Onew is actually given to him by SM because of his voice. 온유 means soft and gentle in Korean. I love that you noticed that on On The Way!

[@elderflowerephemera]

Re: On The Way, Onew shared a lot of behind stories regarding the song and recording when he guested on DinDin’s Music High (you can find it on KZbin subbed by SHINee Space). This was the first track he recorded for Dice and also the one that took 5 hours~ he spent a lot of time adjusting his technique and the attention to detail really shows! I recommend watching the full interview/chat if you can.

[@anyaal9248]

Is the interview subbed? Shawol asking

[@elderflowerephemera]

@@anyaal9248 hello yes it’s subbed by the SHINee Space team

[@melon2378]

the song is so sam kim. my 1st listen to this album i knew right away it was sam kim who did the melody. its really unlike anything jinki has done before so it seems like it would be hard for him to sing a song like this and adjust his singing. its my fav song on the album.

[@wonderingbunny525]

Love that you appreciate his vocal ability which we Shawols know that Onew has poured his soul in showcasing a wider range of techniques 🥺💗

[@amosagut]

I really think Dice was plan as type song of ´do not think too much jus vibe´ tittle track , as he has expressed on the interviews , he just wanted to share some simple fun , make people happy, and then as someone commented i think he really wanted to dance and sing real live (real real) and this song allow it for him. I love we have live versions of the songs to be honest , Sunshine with Akmu is like putting the cherry on the top , the harmonies omg... and on the way live is as nice as the recording version . I think it would have the title track if DICE will have not show later on the game , he deffinitly put a lot thinking on that song as it seems it was the first one he choosed, I love it and to be honest I will love/not mind new Onew album follow that line, more r&b mixed with wathever.

[@keysburntgucci9016]

Thank you for your reaction to the entire album of our shining leader Onew. Honestly even I never imagined I would ever hear a "I need a Cha Cha Beat Boy" on an "ONEW" track but man was I in for pleasant surprise. DICE on the whole is a Pleasant surprise and we're just glad all the hard work on this album paid off in such a good way.

[@charcoals]

Watching this made me so proud to be a shawol and an onew bias 🥰 thank you for reacting to our leader!!! I love on the way’s vocal performance too! It’s sooo gooood ahhhhhh

[@otherbully]

Seems you guys share my thoughts about On The Way. I feel like this song is such a showcase of Onew's vocal skill only because sometimes when singing a song, the mind intuitively wants to go to certain notes depending on the note you just sang. Being able to tamp down that urge is impressive. Also he sings this live while dancing, and being in the moment can definitely lead you to making some new decisions while singing a song but he does it perfectly every time.

[@m.di.c.]

AND HE SANG ON THE WAY LIVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE - with choreo, which waaaah. I love that Singing Beetle is in here, too since the interview you did with her where she said she'd have liked to have workd with SHINee if she'd stayed with SM.

[@m.di.c.]

I wonder if you like his Sunshine version with AKMU Suyhun as well - personally I have a wholly unsubstantiated theory that it was always supposed to be a duet with her, but SM and YG couldn't agree on terms, because I think her voice is in the backing of this version too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4CmhIp3nMiXrJI - ETA to put in the official link to the cut

[@letsbehapihapihapi13]

A BIG YES TO THIS!💯 We need a video of their vocalist reactors on Sunshine's studio version first then the duet one with Suhyun☀ Idk why I have this inexplicable need to hear an in-depth analysis on the technical details on why their duets always sound so amazing and otherworldly😩🎤👌 Btw I'm curious about the video link you shared but it's broken(?)🤔

[@m.di.c.]

@@letsbehapihapihapi13 Ah, I'm a Patreon so my comments were before the official cut was released on SHINee channel, and shawol had uploaded the cut. Now that there's an official one, the uploader took theirs down so the views go to SHINee channel - here's the link to that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4CmhIp3nMiXrJI

[@akdongirl]

i’m new to onew and fell in love with this album, it’s just so my style!

[@mezed322]

on the way is def my favorite bside it’s too good. when you hear “i need a cha cha beat boy” at the beginning of any song, you know it’s gonna be a banger

[@TheHekateris]

Firstly, Umu is looking especially pretty!! On the Way is my favorite on the album. I feel like a lot of people miss what he's doing with his voice and the late disco vibes? 100%!! Thank you so much for reacting to Dice! And yes, I also agree with ou both that it's a comforting, fairly 'simple' song. I wish you could interview Onew about his vocal techniques...I can't believe how much better of a singer he's become...never would have thought that was possible, tbh. Amazing.

[@debreescaemanuelle1843]

Yes! Compared to his previous works, this one is such a huge improvement and I'm so proud of him

[@melon2378]

On the way is very sam kim.. i knew just from listening to it.. first thoughts were sam kim and primary (and also the sam kim song from the primary album). Funny when I looked it up and sam kim was on the credits lol.

[@dirori_ringdingdong525]

sam kim also sang the english version (the demo version) in one of his twitch before!! its totally him!

[@bobthebuilderday6leader]

I love Sunshine and On The Way, so thank you for reacting to dubu leader Lee Jinki! Always appreciate y’alls input.

[@sunshineinthesky2532]

Onew recorded On the way for 5 hours straight (it usually takes him around 2 hours to record) because he’s such a perfectionist an it’s also the first song recorded for the album. In fact he even gifted fans with On the way recording behind the scene (actually he gifted fans with ALL of the tracks behind the scenes just bc fans said they like it, but On the way was the confirmed one that was funded by himself if I’m not wrong). If you watch the behind the scene video you’ll see how he works really hard for this song, no wonder it’s one of the best songs that came out this year.

[@onepiecedaisuki97]

Thank you so much for doing album reaction of Onew - Dice To hear good reactions and appreciation toward Onew music and vocal from you guys makes me proud of Onew's hard work umu keep saying comforting is great because Onew said he wish his album could comfort people

[@Mintflavoredgum]

On The Way is my favorite song on this mini album. It's so chill but upbeat and it highlights Onew's technical singing ability the best imo. It's so interesting throughout the entire song. So many layers not just in the track but in his vocal textures as well. It's just. So good. 💖

[@FlorEme_]

Finally!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Your reactions make me appreciate all the work it takes to make, not an album, but ONE SINGLE SONG. Onew and the production did great! Thanks for take a chance to listen to DICE ❤

[@NWlaras]

I agree with what Kevin said. But, i also agree with Umu said, maybe Onew didn't belt his voice higher in falsetto or used his original voice to create this floating feeling to fit with the album.

[@zcst4eva]

I really love listening to you guys break down my favorite artists songs. I feel like I gain a whole new appreciation for their craft afterwards, and find little things about the songs that I didn't notice on my first few listens. Umu, you have a knack for pointing out little things in the background, that once I finally here them I can never unhear them! Thank you very much for these album listens, they are fantastic!!

[@jannasaslaw9986]

As you started listening to "On the Way," I suddenly thought, "what are they gonna say at that part where the vocal melody goes higher on '(I want to) SEE you'?" - and that spot arrived and both of you said "Wow!"

[@aquashine93shawol4life8]

This was such a good, happy distraction from life right now. I really loved the analysis in this part and made me appreciate the subtle moments of each song. Thank you Umu and Kevin!!

[@jjingguisme144]

When you said it's comforting when listened to his song and yeahh that is his purpose, to make the listeners happy💕

[@koharu8066]

Yess finally you all should make a video reaction for sunshine onew ft suhyun!!!!

[@ariawang6433]

没想到on the way有这么多知识点，这个唱的现场简直太棒了👏而且完全没有垫音的开麦舞台，并且加了舞蹈，Onew真的太强了

[@jumitsu]

Thx for react and love SHINee!! I don't understand nothing about music but I like to watch your comments ☺️

[@dirori_ringdingdong525]

its good when kevin says "wow" 🤣 24:16

[@spriiiiinkles]

I love this channel so much~ best reactions!!! Kevin kind of keeps you on the edge of your seat and wondering which parts he'll like~ and Umu is just over there mini dancing and looking into the camera whenever she gets excited 10:40 so fun to watch! I always love picking up new sounds & instruments that I never noticed before (and getting the names/descriptions of the sounds) and in-depth explanations about chords & progressions. Watching these videos make me feel like I'm in a music club where I learn a lot & am training my ear too. It helps me appreciate the work/art so much more! SHINee never fails to bring fresh & exciting music to the forefront. And Onew, our leader, is one of the most dynamic, unique, and skilled vocalists in the industry. I hope people will continue to recognize their artistry at the intersection of creative genius and elegance. They are legendary for a reason. Thank you all your videos on SHINee~ time to go watch them all again :)

[@nathgrohl]

Onew came back to enrich our lives with his amazing voice ❤ Thanks for the reaction, guys!

[@dancalindi]

I love Sunshine so much 😭😭😭. When the outro comes on I get goosebumps every.single.time 😭

[@carmeninherlife2137]

Yeah! So happy you guys listened to the whole album, I love this one so much!

[@letsbehapihapihapi13]

Tbh I wasn't into 'On The Way' on my first listen😅, I initially only liked the citypop intro and first verse but after giving it a few more listens I actually find it really good and fell in love with it!😍 It's impressive on how much work and details Onew put into singing this song🎶👌

[@nechie]

Please react to Onew x Sungha Jung “Dice and Love Phobia”. I love your reaction to Onew’s Dice album. Thank you!

[@user-ll4to5el6y]

영어 능력자이신 샤월이 계시다면.....제발 한국 자막좀 달아쥬세요 젭알.......😭💙

[@duckchallenge1]

OMG! OUR OLD MAN (ONEW), have a special reaction on this chanel 💎😍

[@ks0186]

It is interesting you mentioned weekends 80s inspo, because the overall uplifting vibes if anything reminded me of dua lipa's bright take.... Also reminded me of 9muses for some reason ^^

[@jennylee3910]

I love when smart people appreciate Onew❤

[@KaaryJonas]

You guys never disappoint with your reactions, thank u!!!!!!!!!

[@anajennicamalazarte4303]

Thank you for this!❤️ Been waiting for your reaction on this Album. And here it is finally😊 thank you so much❤️

[@odiliamichel]

and now i'll be waiting for Key's Bad Love reaction

[@wishbling]

Thankyou so much for the reaction!

[@Modeoheims]

It’s a shame Key’s album did not also get a listening to. I’m glad you loved Onew’s work, though, of course! But I do wish I could have some thoughts on Eighteen and Helium.

[@florcita07]

Thank you for doing a Dice first listen, I love these!

[@saratavares9159]

Thank you so much for doing this reaction. It made me appreciate the fine details of the DICE album all the more. Indeed if we watch the behind recording of the album we see that ONEW took such attention to his vocal interpretation and vocal layering. Signs of a true artist/ experienced vocalist and musician. I also always appreciate the classical music insights, although sometimes I feel lacking since it has been a while since I have brushed up on my musical theory. And many things that I havent learned yet, since I did not pursue a higher education in it. But it makes me want to pick up the books on it again. It is also interesting to try an train one's ear to better understand what is behind modern music production and composition. I appreciate this account so much. Wondering if you have a secondary youtube channel or know of one where they analyse the classical music pieces. Would be wanting to check that out, if it exists somewhere online. Keep up the good work. Much luck 💙💎✨ Hwaiting!

[@user-xe6oj5cb1g]

Oh, I will enjoy it!! Thank you!

[@HeeyItsJazz]

Every song on this project was a hit. It’s hard to pick a favorite 😅
