Thank you so much for this reaction.

[@alexale7548]

He is definitely breathtaking, so your reaction and mess of words is understandable.

[@xgwomanx]

Oh god, you are going to pass out when you get to Move. I can't wait!

[@simonemaniam]

If you want wet Taemin then react to MOVE...he is literally wet the whole mv...yeah, I'll leave it at that and good luck.

[@r.r.3785]

I'm so here for this journey 💛

[@Auntie67]

I love your Taemin reactions, he’s truly one in a million and once you have a taste of his music and artistry there’s no way back! Is there any chance you’ll react to his compilations regarding his development as an artist or his English speaking compilations? He’s really an adorable, sweet, funny and super kindhearted person and it would be such a pity if you didn’t get to know this more private side of him… As for his music I recommend IDEA, Move, Thirsty and Black Rose.

[@SwirlyDoodle]

Yaaas! Now I can't wait for you to watch Idea :D

[@tristan_mbb4422]

I remember when this was released, I watched the mv hundreds of times and listened to the song thousands of times. One of my faves of his 💖

[@glitterriddler]

watching want mv with subs is a totally different experience tho

[@dv2451]

Taemin's a beast but also are those guinea pigs squeaking in the back lol

[@annikendanielsen9092]

Just watched all ur reactions to Taemin, and I really hope you decide to post some more! Can’t wait to see you explore more of him and his music💕✨

[@KaterinaLuts]

Thank you for the reaction! Taemin is surely one of a kind. If you have a chance, please react to exo Kai’s solo “Mmmh”. Another amazing artist, I’m sure you’ll love what you’ll see.

[@clairewol4619]

So excited to see your journey discovering Taemin - subscribed straight away!

[@Amy95Anime]

New subsciber here! I did know Teamin from before but it didn't attracted me that much, but then came MOVE and after that WANT, like damn... it got me waaay too hooked on him. And now i'm addicted to him

[@Sunset553]

If you never reviewed Butter, your hair color would be perfect for it :) I ❤️ Taemin and his work.

[@ShawolOT5]

Taemin is the absolute BEST. Loved your reaction, and will be looking through your reactions after this concludes. If you’ve already reacted to these, please disregard, but I’m looking forward to seeing you react to “Thirsty”, “Drip Drop”, “Sexuality” (HAS TO BE THE LIVE VERSION), and “Black Rose” (The Stage). You’ll want to see his live performance of “Slave”, as well, but get your Thirst-Aid Kit ready first.

[@crochetmittens]

can't wait for your SHINee reaction! i wonder which song it was that you reacted to

[@ariawang6433]

Taemin is very iconic. please check： idea move press your number（it is produced by Bruno Mars） danger He also released Japanese song： flame of love sayonara hitori（goodbye） famous under my skin SHINee is also amazing，their live is amazing like cd even better. you really should check more their songs！

[@blue70033]

I totally agree with you that the K-pop MVs should be watched without lyrics for the first impression, where we can watch/listen carefully the video, the visuals, the music, the choreography, and then, yes, we should pay attention to the lyrics. I've seen people reacting to the MVs and while they are reading the subs, they are missing so much stuff that is happening in the MVs...

[@ourshawolsoul]

Hoping for more Taemin reactions :)

[@lula90]

Please react to MOVE and IDEA!! you're gonna love it! ❤️

[@milagrossofiacarena251]

idk if u know it but taemin is serving in the military right now, we will be back in late 2022

[@valoriec]

This is my favorite of his videos. He's Satan, tempting Eve. There's even the Gates of Hell art installation. He loves to use religious iconography in his videos, but this is blatant. The red outfit = apple. Serpents, etc. Love it!!!

[@paoale8508]

Please React to IDEA from Taemin.

[@pandaa5842]

Wet taemin = move mv 😂

[@Saddlemomma]

Welcome to Taemin's Bible Study using "Want" as your study guide! As a Christian, Taemin uses many of his MVs to provide us with a lesson in the Christian faith. "Want" is the perfect example of such a study by using the song as a retelling of Genesis 3 with a sprinkling of the salvation message just like the original biblical tale which included foreshadowing of the Messiah to come. Taemin's faith is on full display here, but ingeniously hidden to those who don't subscribe to, or appreciate his worldview. However, that message is very present/subliminal for those of us who do appreciate and share this commonality, and for us there's much more to discover. The entire MV is an object lesson into the perils of temptation, lust, greed and sin. As usual, Taemin takes on dual roles as both the tempter (snake), and the one who chooses salvation, and the message is delivered masterfully through the biblical imagery and metaphors. During the introduction phase, we see alluring snippets of Taemin in various poses with snakes and smoke, however, you also see what looks like pools of blood (Christ was the ultimate sacrificial lamb whose blood covers the sins of the world). Taemin opens the MV by dancing in slow, hypnotic, snake-like movements. Snakes/Serpents which represent the idea of the tempter in the Bible (In the ancient Hebrew - which derives from Akkadian & Ugaritic - the word "snake/serpent" ["nchsh"] used in this particular way grammatically in Gen. 3, is a triple entendre meaning "divine shining being". The snake was ancient iconography denoting spiritual/godly figures.) Eve wasn't talking with a snake, but an angel or some other divine shining being. Gardens and mountains were typical metaphors for where gods dwelt because gardens were rare and mountains were mostly inaccessible to ancient peoples of that time period. When trying to interpret the Bible, it's VERY IMPORTANT to leave your 21st Century glasses on the table and look at the wording and imagery from the ancient Israelites' perspective and the language, culture, and history of that time period - from the second millennial BC up through the early 2nd Century AD. Things don't mean what you think they do now. This is the BIGGEST reason why people denigrate and scoff at the Bible. In actuality, they make fun of it because they don't understand it. They are looking through their own understanding of how things are and what they mean NOW during the present time period --- BIG MISTAKE #1. Biggest mistake #2 is to assume all Christians think the Bible is a book of science. It is not. It's a combination of history (very accurate history regarding places, people, rituals, wars, etc., of that time period as verified through archeological finds), songs, letters, and allegories. The glowing, bright white shirt Taemin wears fits in perfectly with the symbolism for "shining" and "the light". The chief adversary of Christ, Lucifer, (MEANING: "Light Bearer", or "The Shining One"). As I explained earlier - divine shining being. Thus I wouldn't be surprised that this part of his wardrobe was very intentional. Taemin is all about the little details. Lucifer was supposedly the most beautiful angel....until he fell. (The word "satan" is a misnomer which actually means "messenger" in the ancient Hebrew/Aramaic, as in the incident with Job. It was actually a job description which became a proper noun later during the intertestamental period and then appeared in the NT.). In addition there are creepy demonic-looking beings around him at certain points when you slow it down. Although he's beautiful, he's hiding his demonic side in order to draw you in....a wolf in sheep's clothing. Just before the bridge, there is a brief shot of a neon red/orange cross behind him, and he mimics the posture of Christ on the cross (which is a signature pose for him as you see in many of his dance postures). In another scene, during the bridge, Taemin is elevated above the snakes and calls them to him because he's their father - the father of lies. The tempter in the garden was a master at twisting the truth, which lured Eve to sin, and she then led Adam to do the same. Behind him is a photo of him with his eyes covered: see no evil here, just gaze at my beauty and listen to what I say. People are blinded by beauty and pretty, flattering lies. You also get a visual of a solar eclipse. Again a reference to Christ's death on the cross, as there was (according to both the Bible and present day astronomers) a solar eclipse when Christ died on the cross. Even the lyrics reflect this theme: "The minute you take me in you'll be wanting more," in other words an addiction is formed. "....The sweetness of the forbidden apple...," tastes good, but once you get a little taste of sin, that which is forbidden, you'll want more and more because it "...awakens your senses," (in the Bible, when Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, they became aware of the "knowledge of good and evil") and you will continually "...thirst for more." He'll "....wake you up from the silence of your deep sea." In ancient biblical times, the "sea" was a metaphor for chaos, because it couldn't be controlled. People were afraid of it because many died in it's chaotic waters. This is why the Bible (in Revelation) says there will be no more seas = no more chaos. When Adam and Eve were awakened to knowledge of good and evil, chaos ensued upon the Earth. He'll "help you see a new world," but is this really a good new world when innocence is stripped from you? "I'm your toy, I'll make you innocent." Most toys appear innocent and signify the innocence you had as a young child, but the apple (forbidden fruit) looked innocent too and "appeared" good to eat. Many poisonous things appear beautiful and delectable but those very qualities lure the unsuspecting victim to their death. Sin numbs you to immorality and turns it into something "sweet" to the point it's justified and then those who can still see the corruption and sin are shunned and shamed. Right becomes wrong and wrong becomes right -- just as we're seeing in the world now. It was the serpent who distorted the truth and tempted with the one "forbidden apple" rather than the other acceptable fruit. Sin invades so slowly and subtly that you don't even realize it's happening until you're already addicted to it and scales form over your eyes (which were considered one of the ways to discern knowledge), and you have no clue because you're "...relying on your own self-control...moved by your body's and soul's" dark desires. The tempter says, "Open your eyes (to me. says Lucifer). What do you want? I'LL MAKE YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU NEVER KNEW." Exactly. Adam and Eve never knew sin, until the tempter tricked them and revealed all and after that, humanity has always wanted more. Temptation gives birth to greed, lust, jealousy....all the 7 deadly sins. Before you know it, you have been gently and seductively led right to Rodin's famous "Gates of Hell" sculpture at the end of the MV. You are left with a choice: 1) Embrace the sin and willingly go through those gates (Adam and Eve were kicked out of the garden because through their gift of free will, they chose sin. God, as a perfect entity cannot abide with sin; it's contradictory, so He appointed Cherubim with swords of flame to guard the gates of Eden so no one could ever enter again). 2) Wash yourself clean in pure holy water (Christ promised to gift us with living water -- Taemin also has songs called, "Holy Water" and "Heaven"), and there's only one way to do that - by believing in and accepting Christ as your savior. I'm sure there's probably much more that I've missed. So, once again, you can see how Taemin's lyrics can be interpreted simply as they appear, or once you study the meticulous details that Taemin is famous for infusing into his work, you may find a message that's a little uncomfortable for some and more than you bargained for...lol. Thanks for another great reaction to our genius artist, Taemin! I hope you will also react to "IDEA", "Move" and his special birthday art performance piece of "Just Me & You" VCR which debuted on 7/18.

Hiii

[@Necroherz]

Is it so disrespectful to suggest if in the future you can react to something from NCT as well? Just to show that we like Stay can also appreciate that group and not argue like in other forums 🤔

[@fluffinator3701]

"Omg is he wet?" well, you might want to watch Move MV :D
