TAEMIN 태민 'Criminal' MV | REACTION!!!

[@ethel.albuquerque]

Taemin is a true artist. That’s the point.

[@Jujvtsu]

Facts sis

[@Apetitegirly]

yes all kpop artists are amazing we need to respect everyone

[@kyleb4u789]

End of discussion periodt

[@dayleashleynolasco5765]

Ethel, he isn't enough to be an Artist. He is literally a living ART.

[@addisondurrence1431]

The song is about Stockholm Syndrome from the victim's pov from what I've heard. If you look at the lyrics it actually makes total sense it's about Stockholm Syndrome imo

[@serenity3034]

👀

[@phantomjoo]

i knew it was giving me killing stalking vibes

[@nznn4187]

Wow that make sense 🤐👌

[@Melontannie27]

Not too long ago Taemin himself got upset when the company released a snippet of the song on his reality show during a fun vibe type of situation, when he himself said this was a serious song and not taken in a light tone. Fans were upset that the company had done that and were trying to get that part edited out for Taemin's sake. This song is supposed to be taken in a serious and deeper context, that is Stockholm syndrome.

[@maymaecat5149]

Wow that makes sense. I couldn't figure out if it was just a Toxic relationship?? A Muse being trapped by who he had inspired (I was making a whole story connecting it to Want and maybe famous. It makes tones of sense in my head). I knew it was dark though those lyrics where pretty telling for sure

[@TAEMholic]

The concept is "Stockholm Syndrome". He is the Criminal and the Victim. It is a metaphor on how he cannot breakaway from himself. At first he was dancing with his hands tied but then he learned how to embrace his addicting and enticing parts so he was dancing more freely, but not happily. The catharsis would then allow him for a rebirth (as an artist). His new self will be shown on Act 2. Thank you, Bris!

[@karla1118]

And then when you see Taemin in his interviews, reality show he's nothing like this lol. The duality of this man!

[@in97able]

Well he stole a jacket from Key and also copy the signatures of his members... but yeah he is a baby cheese.

[@karla1118]

taeminsus loool you’re right!

[@UG6690]

taeminsus lmao!!! Couldn’t have put it more accurately!

[@MasNas624]

He’s a really good actor in those MVs!

[@jaxcey4288]

WORD 😂

[@maragkudai1987]

Taemin is ART!!! His voice is so sexy and his dance is so powerfull and elegant. Just WOW !!!!!!

[@TrishhMakes]

yup, waiting for this reaction lol. heterosexuality can be left at the door, thank you.

[@ROSE-pg1op]

I totally agree with you I love his reactions and how he jumps out of his chair so excited or laughing

[@jiminbias7059]

Yessss I agree 100%

[@neo_cultured9771]

And toxic masculinity can be left behind too

[@DTaishouchiha]

Who said I'm straight? Jajajaja I love all this

[@stellameii]

I fucking love this comment😆😂

[@aliciawiggins1491]

If Michael Jackson and Madonna had a baby, it would be Taemin...

[@caitlynmarg0812]

No offenss but where is the Madonna-

[@malikisaflowerboy47]

More like Prince

[@felicitas.c.]

@@caitlynmarg0812 maybe cause she is the queen of pop

[@chloebalatsoukas5148]

t i r e d o f i t . I also think the commenter was referring more to Madonna's unique and unorthodox concepts she used to be known for back in the day

[@caitlynmarg0812]

@@chloebalatsoukas5148 ahhh okay

[@Erika-oo1qo]

Taemin's whole existence is unorthodox in a good way for everyone who watches him

[@hann1733]

this song describes the feeling about stockholm syndrome, it's my favorite concept from taemin, its so unique and amazing

[@the_debiler]

I wanna see Bris react to Sexuality by Taemin 👀👀

[@RubyRose-jz4lq]

Me as a 17 year old watching this - Sureee Bris “fun time”😂

I’m 15, and I was like, “Mhmm, I know what you saying....😗👀”

[@hal4828]

I'm 17 too haha

[@yehetkkaebsong6225]

Taemin is “the best solo artist in whole industry”

[@Phatbaby1011]

“Making fun time “ has me 💀 lol

[@cimannontostcronch]

love the direction taemin has been taking his music ❤😩 his voice has this haunting quality to it, so this style really suits him so well

[@erinohlson3717]

Yet another masterpiece by Taemin .

[@zia2279]

OHO YESSS i WAS WAITING FOR THIS everything about taemin's comeback and album IS S TIER!! Taemin recently became my ult, and I don't think I'll ever be able to go back.. The true standard, one of the kings of kpop.

[@paigek3096]

It's confusing to me when I see people thinking Taemin is the criminal. imo it's pretty clear from the opening lyrics (and everything thereafter) that he's describing an unhealthy relationship with this other person. The whole direction of the MV shows Taemin in a restrained manner, either battling hand ties or himself. His voice, his dancing, his acting all point to someone who's trapped and in pain, but isn't quite sure if they should leave.

[@SabakunoRaikiri]

It’s because it shows him captured by the swat team as well that’s why people got confused. Also not everyone remembered to turn cc on I guess 😂

[@yasarjawad7508]

But in his commentary he said this is about himself

[@lori4021]

Ah you should watch Taemin's own commentary. Also Bookish and Theories made a great analysis of this song. The surface meaning of the lyrics is obvious. But this masterpiece is way more than what it seems. In the MV, Taemin is portraying both the victim and the criminal. I think that's why his album has two versions - The Suspect and The Innocent.

[@brukrblt]

@@lori4021 yesss was about to say that thank you

[@cherry-kk6sc]

Still waiting for taemin: idea reaction...who else? ;-;

[@codebrker24]

I no longer refer to Taemin as "Korea's MJ"in-fact I never did. I just refer to him as "Taemin the Artist" . Taemin has earned that respect and I am more than willing to give it to him.

[@lori4021]

I completely agree. Although I'm not averse to the MJ comparison. It's time to acknowledge that Taemin is Taemin!

[@mariapaulas199]

Thinking how this is one of my favorite Albums of all times. You really can see 'Taemin' in the complete Album. That's what he wants, for his own genre to shine and for people to say 'That's Taemin. That's a Taemin song/dance'. And I'm loving how people are acknowledging his vocals, from seeing him just as a top tier dancer to people talking about his voice. Taemin is breaking the category of idol to Artist with every comeback. He is his own genre. He WILL be REMEMBERED. MJ was MJ. Taemin is Taemin, even when his persona is evolving and Mj was one of his inspirations for his dreams. And I see fans fighting to put their favorite in the highest position, best dancer, best vocalist, etc. and forgeting to enjoy music and appreciate different artistry. In music history there is not just one artist, but artists who marked their name. Taemin is one of them. And I didn't think I was going to make a speech. Thank you comming to my TedTalk

[@lori4021]

I think your TedTalk is necessary and I appreciate it.

[@cbnoir7256]

Finally! The Ace of Aces is back!

[@Luminous.A.Glory_VitaNostra]

ACE!!! So true!!! He’s the best!!

[@MellowMochi]

Hey Bris, Not really related to the video but I’m relatively new to the bris gang and I just wanted to let you know that your videos have really gotten me back into kpop and the Korean culture and I really love and appreciate everything you’ve done. I also love your kpop throwbacks since I grew up with “old school” kpop so please keep them coming! You should do a reaction to SHINee- Replay if you haven’t already listened to it. It was their debut song and people say it’s the one of the best debut songs from a kpop group. But keep up the good work and stay safe out there! Thank you for all that you do for us!

"fun time" LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@andsoshebecameaphoenixandf561]

I just came from Bris reaction to Wonho. Now it's time for the Legend TAEMIN. I already know he's going to flip. Taemin is on a level all on his own and no one can match him. Like DAMN, this man is just too much. Just so f*ing talented.

[@Luminous.A.Glory_VitaNostra]

Level all on his own!!! ACCURATE

[@sindahat7451]

I love how he's reminiscent of MJ but has his own very unique style-Combined with this choreo by Koharu and Kasper, it's just killer.

[@kmkniu1869]

I f*cking LOVE him like this! This is my *favorite* Taemin; "Danger", "Want", "Guess Who". These dark, edgy. erotic themes that only he can convincingly pull off. And @BRISxLIFE , love, I'm an OG MJ fan, but I don't think we can really compare them anymore. Taemin is a more accomplished dancer (more genres), a better actor (mv), is less problematic, and a lot of other things. I feel like we undermine his originality and hard work when we put him under that MJ umbrella

[@HaileyAngele08]

kmkniu THIS

[@zoecooke4082]

Taemin himself is HONORED to consider himself a sort of MJ protégé. He has studied not only MJ's dancing but his facial expressions, stage presence, relationship with gender ambiguity and even separation between personal life and stage persona (taemin is also quite shy IRL). I don't think it's at all insulting to put Taemin under the "MJ umbrella", because artistically, there are only maybe 2 or 3 others who join him there. Genius recognizes genius; Quincy Jones created the zeitgeist with MJ's sonic storytelling, just as SM and Taemin are trying to expand what k-pop can be and sound like in this era. It isn't an insult. It's recognizing someone successfully standing on the shoulder of a giant and not in their shadow, which is no easy feat.

[@kmkniu1869]

@@zoecooke4082 hold up. I did not say insult. I am fully aware of everything in your essay. AGAIN, since you seem to have missed my point, I think Taemin has become his own person, with his own style, his own identity as an artist and deserves to be recognized as such without having his name always uttered in conjunction with MJ. I could explain in more depth, but would you listen objectively?

[@kmkniu1869]

@Holly Hilt I'm 53. I was there from the beginning. The first album I bought was The Jackson 5's Greatest Hits. I coached MJ impersonators in dance during the Thriller era. So your little dig at me, meaningless. I do not disagree with anything you said. I do think you misunderstood what /I/ said. I never said the comparison was an /insult/. I think Taemin has become his own person, with his own style, his own identity as an artist and deserves to be recognized as such without having his name always uttered in conjunction with MJ. I could explain in more depth, but would you listen objectively?
