[@LongJohnSilver1138]

Taeyeon appeared as a guest on Jonghyun's radio Blue Night and talked about how they didn't look at each other in the eyes, which is a topic that too many people seem to make a big deal out of on this page.

[@exocutie1590]

Link plz!!!

[@hanblue4413]

baekhyunloves taeyeon there really isn't a youtube link because it's not a "visible" radio. Jong's radio is audio-only; the traditional style

[@JBhpTwilighterSasuke]

Han BLUE And what did they say?

[@angelicaeclevia8566]

I'm curious to know...can you tell me how did they explain it?????

[@hanblue4413]

Angel Jung not much, other than that they found each other too funny to look straight on in the eyes so the next best they could do was to look at each other's noses or something.

[@ddaeboreum9596]

I notice that Taeyeon always closes her eyes when she sings ballad. She has her way, her own style as a singer. The magical thing I feel after hearing this is although Taeyeon didn't even look at Jonghyun for once while Jonghyun was always looking at her during the performance, I still can feel the song. I just can feel it. I don't know how to express this, just, they sang with their own heart, they gave their feeling into the song so maybe the performance was a bit weird (because there wasn't no eyes-contact between them), but I still can feel it. And one more thing, Jonghyun doesn't "struggle with" the song like someone said LOL :)) That's his style, always move his. Watch SHINee's performances or Weekly Idol then you will understand why. That's even one if his habit. :) - from a Shawol ♡

[@theshinee932]

i love this comment 😊👍

[@우예나-j2g]

Taeyeon closed her eyes and held the microphone in her two hands and stood in front of a wall (since before) while practicing. I think that is part of the reason she did that :)

[@PeopleCallMeLiv]

I will miss him forever... I used to be a shawol since 2016 but people started to appreciat him just after the incident... that's not fair.

[@ssblingbling8685]

Jonghyun harika işler yaptı gerçekten çok güzel bir düet

[@bjzerochan9]

I love the way Taeyeon sang on the stage

[@MIMINHEROFOREVER]

taeyeon was trying to concentrate on singing all the correct notes for this particular song, that's why she sang it note perfect. It sometimes help to sing with your eyes close because it allows you to focus on the song more rather than everything that's around you. and for the earpiece, there was definitely something wrong with it, whether it was too loud or too quite for her to hear herself through it.

[@juliakawaii]

Zhang Yi Lin hit all her notes perfectly in the Chinese performance but she didn't close her eyes or touch her earpiece once. She actually looked Chen in the eye and engaged with him for most of the song. I'm not bashing Taeyeon, she's crazy talented and sang amazingly well in this, but I just found that I enjoyed Li Yin's performance more. No hate.

[@samlo9458]

juliakawaii Have you tried singing on stage with a faulty earpiece? I'm not defending Taeyeon either, but depending on the stages they are performing, the earpiece may or may not be the only thing that helps them pitch.

[@elsaliecullen9044]

juliakawaii this song is about breaking up couple who can only listen to each other's breath through the phone only they cannot see each other because it's too painful instead of seeing each other, they prefer listening to each other's breath what do you expect taeyeon to do? she's just trying to do what the lyrics's about in fact, i do think closing eyes is better than looking at each other as it suits the song more

[@Lwhchris]

Just exactly what the earpiece is for?

[@MIMINHEROFOREVER]

Lim Hong in any big stadium or arena where there are hundreds or thousands of screaming fans or the instrumentation behind the performer is so loud it can be deafening, the singer won't be able to hear themselves sing, therefore they use the earpiece to be able to hear what they're singing, plus sometimes there might be a person speaking to them through the earpiece to direct them whilst on stage, but someone talking to you through the earpiece is normally for tv presenters rather than singers.

[@SquintyEyedSquirrel]

At first i thought that their voices didnt really match but after listening to it everyday I LOVE THEIR VOICES TOGETHER NOW! and i think jonghyuns voice is amazing in ballads and no one could substitute him. Both of them tried their best and have amazing voices

[@masterkoi29]

Breath is the song that was written by Jonghyun. Talented singer with amazing voice

[@ms.p684]

Richard Ong , it’s Breathe which was sang by Lee Hi of YG.

[@user-jl4tm7oj2l]

영원토록 그립겠지만 그곳에서는 편안하게 잘 지내셨으면 좋겠습니다 '종현'이란 이름 기억하겠습니다

[@dorothyfrenzy]

Every singer is entitled to her own unique style. One would be a fool if one looks at the singer with narrow eyes just because the singer does not fulfill the desires that person has for the singer. Taeyeon, for example, sings with her eyes closed because she wants to feel at one with her song and because she wants to connect with the song. Think of it as mediating and being at peace with the song. It just goes to show much how she enjoys singing and how much emotions she put into the song. If you see her as being "dead" and "expressionless", then all I can say is how shallow you can be because you only look at the surface and fail to look beneath.

[@GleekyGLo]

I miss you so much Jonghyun... :(

[@tinnshineeeek]

Jonghyun suits in all type of songs! No matter that is a rock song or ballad… His voice can heal...

[@PaulaHenslowIAmACassieForLife]

Am I the only one who thinks that Jonghyun fits well with the song? :(

[@luffypi]

No i also think so ,but the connection between them is just.....

[@PaulaHenslowIAmACassieForLife]

Yeah, I know. They're not interacting well :( It seems aloof.

[@KuzVy]

Paula Henslow maybe because closing eyes during the performance is the habit of Taeyeon unnie

[@monicaaris3567]

Jonghyun was good here but Taeyeon... she can't even open her eyes and interact with the public nor Jonghyun. She made this duet look bad.

[@7bugmaster]

hoang le vy Do yeah whenever Taeyeon sings her eyes are forever closed lol so much power

[@MsAltair85]

And those people saying Jjong's voice doesn't suit ballads need to get their ears checked. He sounded wonderful and his voice is one of the best in all k-pop. Stay pressed.

[@emmale4758]

Whenever Taeyeon sings a ballad song, she USUALLY closes her eyes. You guys can check her other performance "Set me free", she closes her eyes all the performance. That's just how she puts her emotion into each song she sings.

[@zanessagurl101]

you just know when taeyeon is singing a ballad that she's so into, cos she rarely opens her eyes and that expression i love it

[@lovelytaeng3352]

Jonghyun always has so many facial expression when singing. It sounds better without watching the video because it is distracting me from listening or else I will be staring at his face the whole time. For your information, I am Jonghyun bias.

[@GGChoColat]

Jonghyun is trying his best to make the song sound good. He had a car accident before and his nose got injuried, so he has breathing problems now which affects him when he sings.

[@vidyapriya4342]

Wow! The feel that jonghyun puts into the song... awesome! 😍😍♥️♥️

[@ZeCupcakex]

Some of y'all are hypocrites complaining about how Taeyeon made no eye contact with Jonghyun. One minute you're complaining about how close a female idol and a male idol are, then here you are pointing fingers at Taeyoen. Just because she didn't make eye contact you criticize her? Taeyeon has proved herself to be one of the best singers in KPOP, I'm sure most of us can agree. They didn't make eye contact, yet they both still killed the stage.

[@salasmiles]

JONGHYUN ♥♥ both their voices are perfect together!!

[@lg0804]

Jonghyun seeks for eye contact while Taeyeon closes her eyes. It's interesting to notice the different ways artists deliver their performance. (Though Taeyeon was more open to eye contact in Lonely performances).

[@smartalec1991]

Taeyeon. Once her voice comes in i think i just melted. She's so good and her voice is so expressive.

[@rrrrrrruru]

종현형 좋은곳가셔서 꿈에서라도 숨소리라도 들려주세요..

[@LaquetaHodge]

Bashing Taeyeon for not making eye contact with Jonghyun is stupid. Every singer has a different habit and hers is closing her eyes during ballads to concentrate. Jonghyun's is obviously looking at her, but that's not what she does. Go look at her performances even with the group, her eyes are closed during her parts. That's what she does besides they filmed this a while ago and it's not like she ruined the performance.

[@nguyenotiendung9383]

You're right!

[@Smartin24562]

[@extraleague01]

As you can see in the video, the audience in the joint recital cheered/screamed for the duet and didn't complain about some petty stuff. Why can't some people here do the same?

[@daronkwak2042]

though i only understand the korean version, but i prefer the chines ver. not because who sang it or their voice, but chen and zhang li yin sing with emotion and i can feel it.

[@michelle-8045]

You may lost in this world, but you always stay in my heart 💙

[@reveirg9]

People commenting about the eyes thing know nothing about music. Music is heard with the ears, felt with the heart. 'Eye contact' is purely fan service. Close your eyes and listen, their emotions are on the same frequency.

[@the223556]

Jonghyun is just so into the song and that's how he sing a song For me, it's totally fine ,it's not too much It's just the way he express his felling Awesome :)

[@user-dori]

I thought this song is so sad. Now I know that It’s the bless to just hear breath. We can’t hear Jonghyun’s breath anymore. 슬픈 노래라 생각했는데 숨소리만 들을 수 있다는 것이 때로는 축복일 수 있다는 걸 이제야 알았다. 이젠 숨소리조차 들을 수가 없다.

[@QuanTran-cq1qp]

Is it just me, but Taeyeon did very well she sounds so emotionally. but I guess only Sones know about Tae's habit as she always closes her eyes when singing and concentrating. I wouldn't want her to interact with Jonghyun and then lose her focus. Great performance, i couldn't ask for more.

[@LaquetaHodge]

I thought the performance was great giving the fact that her ear piece was messing up. I think it is only Sones who know about her habit when she's singing ballads.

[@hyunseon.kim00]

You will shine forever. We will miss you, and remember you forever.

[@iheartuSHINee]

I think jonghyun's voice suits this kind of ballad very well, considering that this is supposedly a drama soundtrack. the texture of his voice suits the melody, since it's supposed to be not so heavy and rough

[@emahaibaralover]

I've seen some ppl saying the other version is better but to me, this version is the best. I love taeyeon and jonghyun's voice 😍

And those ppl who bash taeyeon obviously aren't her fans. Just so you know, this is how taeyeon sings her ballad songs. She ALWAYS closes her eyes to feel the song more.

[@clairedtong]

i think some of you should change your perspectives of how you see things because if taeyeon kept making eye contact with jonghyun, you guys would be criticizing her as well, for not "putting feelings into the song", just let the artist do what she wants to do, she's an artist for a reason, she knows what she's doing.

[@sansa1873]

AGREED !!

[@dandelionintheair]

Im not even Shawol or Jonghyun fans, i just like his voice and now i miss him, i miss his voice

[@tiffanychan9762]

jonghyun's wonderful voice!

[@wesley2161]

Taeyeon isn't used to duets. You can tell because shes constantly trying to not to match Jonghyun's melody (see whenever she touches her ear piece). From a singer, it takes a lot of concentration to not try to sing the more dominant person's melody. That's probably why she wasn't looking at him.

[@2c-amodiaalexislykag.625]

I guess people are having a big fuss here about Taeyeon not giving jonghyun a single glance. Well frankly speaking, it's part of the concept were the boy is chasing the girl while the girl is having two thoughts about ditching him or giving him a second chance and the boy represents Jonghyun while the girl represents Taeyeon since this is a break up song. So it's part of their concept.

[@job_deok]

[@m.8426]

I can't stop crying....

[@Louiizeyy]

I always prefer Korean version over other versions but idk what's up with this performance :/ I think taeyeon's earpiece really did affect it however I also felt like they were only singing it for the sake of it rather than being immersed into the emotions and all (well except jonghyun did put more effort)

[@angelikaosma]

I can't stop myself repeating Jonghyun's part at 1:30 - 1:35 I'm INLOVE with his voice!!... it's like..... OH MY GOSH.. i can't even explain it. it's so perfect

[@12senses9]

Beautiful Angel ❤ It hurts everyday knowing you left us. 😢😢

[@hannylee99]

taeyeon is more comfortable singing solo than duet i think since solo doesn't need her to do all the eye contact thingy.or MAYBE she's uncomfortable with the person she's singing with.i'm not a locksmith,but lost in love is one of the best ballad taeyeon has ever sung.she was great during live,and tiffany's too.and most importantly,they both were comfortable.

[@PhuongNguyen-wc6ui]

nope, when never taeyeon performs a ballad song, she always closes her eyes and feels the music. U guys can see it through many perferformances of her when she was singing alone or with Tiff in "lost in love".
