Taemin is recognized as one of the greatest, if not THE greatest, dancers in Kpop. The choreographer was the woman who danced with him.

[@Flowetress06]

Taemin is a glorious man worthy of every praise and accolade. He debuted in 2008 with SHINee and in 2014 as a solo (he's still in SHINee). He's currently doing his military service and will return in November of 2022. His catalog and SHINee's catalog is amazing

[@hyuntanchoi7457]

SHINee live performance….really….speechless

[@jaynegreen7097]

Taemin is 1 of these guys who just is sexy...without even trying...its the subtle movements with his dancing it's the eye contact and his overall presence..so many amazing visual mvs such as Advice .l criminal. ..omg iconic xx

[@mochawilliams5996]

Taemin is a 👑 Danger, Want, Sayonara Hitori, Criminal, Idea, Advice!

[@jamiesilver7401]

I believe the choreographer is the lady he is dancing with in the duet shots. From my understanding she is a Japanese choreographer, and a good friend of Taemins.

[@ivy_tae]

Everything by Taemin is a hard recommendation. He is an ICON! He has set new standards for artists in the industry. He debuted at only 14 in 2008 in a group called Shinee, one of the greatest Kpop groups to ever exist. Shinee is still active and iconic but Taemin also has created his own special persona. He grew up in front of us and so did his art. Another video you will like is Libido by OnlyOneOf.

[@Evani_18]

Hi! Love seeing your reaction to Taemin. I’d like to see you reacting to Criminal, Advice and Idea. It’s just *chef’s kiss*

[@Xykscyr]

Taemin is another absolutely amazing young man Gorgeous, talented, but above all else.. hardworking. He is in a league all his own.

[@ShawolOT5]

You caught the infamous “Move Disease”. (Yes, it’s legitimately a thing.) Thrilled you found our Taemin. Once you TaemIN, you won’t TeamOUT!

[@shanekasydial]

You should definitely check out his most recent music video... Taemin - Advice music video ... I think you would like it.

[@shanekasydial]

Advice is a bit different than all his other music styles that he has done but hope you check it out.

[@hyuntanchoi7457]

Taemin is well known as THE unique, complete artist in the entire kpop industry. worth to deep dive into his crafts. i am looking forward to see more reactions to Taemin from you! thanks for your reaction:)

[@darathomas8204]

If you like the video for this song you will love the dance practice.

[@camy9335]

About Taemin, just two words: good luck!

[@milindawilson9175]

The look and feel for "Move" is very specific, it's supposed to be androgynous and gender neutral. Early in his career when Taemin was growing up in SHINee he was known for his feminine look. The industry thought it was novel and cute to dress Taemin up as a girl and play up his feminine features. (And if you ever saw Taemin dressed like a girl, you would see why. He really could pass as a girl, especially when he was younger.) Which ended up giving him a real complex about the fact that people never saw him as a masculine man. It took him a long time to accept that he was known for his looks and to come to terms with the fact that everyone thought of him as a "pretty boy," etc. So, at this point in his career as a 24 year old (He is 28 now) he was trying to make a statement about how he has now come to terms with just being himself and not caring what people think. Dancing is art and movement has no gender. Taemin is one of the most popular solo artists, as well as a member of the legendary Kpop group SHINee. He debuted as a solo artist in 2014. "Move" is his title track on his 2nd Korean solo album which was released in 2017. Fun fact: The blue color you see throughout this MV is supposed to represent the cool, chill vibe of this song, but pearl aqua also is SHINee's fan color, so you will see aqua/blue/green shades with most everything to do with SHINee as a way to represent their connection as a group and their connection to their fans, etc. "Move" features all female dancers because the whole point of the song and dance is supposed to be about crossing gender boundaries and how just because you are male doesn't mean your dance has to be hyper masculine. Taemin uses what is traditionally considered more feminine dance moves to show how you can merge both feminine and masculine styles together to create something that can't be singled out as one gender or the other. This dance allowed a more mainstream audience to start to embrace less traditional gender roles within Kpop. "Move" is one of Taemin's most famous choreographies and it has become the dance he is most recognized for.This dance has inspired what is known as the "Move disease," and it is said that the dance is so catchy that you can't help but try to imitate it. There are literally hundreds of videos online of people attempting cover dances to this song. (It is on the level of Beyonce's "Single Ladies" dance and some of the most famous TiK Tok dance challenges.) But no matter how good of a dancer they are, it is quickly apparent that there is just something about the way Taemin moves that can't be duplicated. Taemin is Taemin and there is no one else like him. The dance is never as sharp or precise as the way Taemin does it. That is why he is hands down considered one of the top two BEST dancers in the industry. As Taemin has said numerous times in interviews and on variety shows, the key point in "Move's" choreography is literally supposed to be to stare into the camera like you are trying to seduce the person who is watching. So, you are right, that is exactly what Taemin is doing. If you are impressed with Taemin's dancing in the MV, you really need to see his dance practice video and/or a live performance for "Move." You will be even more blown away when you see the uncut version. There is nothing better than Taemin live. Taemin is just one of those performers that leaves you speechless every time he steps on stage. He was born to be a performer and that is one of the reasons why he has become known as the Korean Michael Jackson. That is also why, as one of the top two BEST dancers in the industry, he was made a member of SuperM. (Kai from EXO -- Taemin's best friend since they were trainees, who is also under SM Entertainment, as well as a member of SuperM -- is the other top dancer.) Taemin is an Idol of Idols and a legend of legends. And the title of the industry's BEST dancer isn't just a fan's opinion but it's a widely agreed upon title bestowed on both Taemin and Kai by their peers and the industry as a whole. There is literally no one considered better than them. The female dancer who is dancing with Taemin in the MV is a famous choreographer. She is the one that choreographed "Move". Her name is Sugawara Koharu and she is a Japanese choreographer who has choreographed dances for several Kpop groups, as well as American artists. She has worked with Taemin a lot over the years and she is the one that also choreographed Taemin's dance for his songs "Want," "Flame of Love" and "Sayonara Hitori" and helped choreograph Taemin and her performance on the competition program Hit the Stage -- "Devil" performance, etc., and she was one of 3 or 4 choreographers who helped choreograph Taemin's "Criminal." Taemin and Sugawara are really good friends. She was also the choreographer for SHINee's song "Good Evening," among others. She loves working with Taemin because they are a lot alike, and that is one of the reasons why she has been featured in several of Taemin's projects. Plus, Taemin and all the members of SHINee, are also one of the most famous artists in Japan and they all speak fluent Japanese, so they have no problem communicating through dance or language. :D Taemin has worked hard to become the magnificent and unique performer and person that we know him as today. But there really is no one that pushes him or holds him to a higher standard then himself. Taemin has said that he really has never taken a true vacation since he was a trainee -- he started with SM Entertainment when he was around 11 years old -- and he doesn't know what to do if he isn't constantly working and training. As he has said, there has never been anything that has come easy to him and he has only gotten to where he is today because he has worked hard to accomplish everything. He is constantly pushing himself to become the best of the best in everything he does. Taemin's choreography is very much influenced by him. Although he has input in almost everything he does, he has choreographers that come up with the choreography for most of his dances and he then infuses it with his own ideas and style and makes it uniquely his. The way Taemin dances is just the way he moves. His movements are effortless. If you watch Taemin dance more, you will see that no matter who choreographs the dance, it will always be very Taemin-like. Many choreographers who have worked with him over the years have said that, with Taemin you can't help but allow him to move in whatever way his body takes him. Taemin is art in every sense of the word. :D Taemin's style of dance can't be defined. As he has said, he has worked his entire career to create a style of dance that is unlike anything in the Kpop industry. And I would argue that that now extends to the entire industry of dance. Taemin started out as a self-taught popper and locker without any dance training, and, even then, as a trainee it was clear his skills as a dancer went far beyond the average dancer. Over the years, as you see with "Move," he has infused those popping and locking skills into his now more contemporary style of dance. But, when it comes to dancing, he can do it all and there is no one better at it than him. The funny thing is, although Taemin is ultra confident when on stage, when not performing his personality is the complete opposite. That's what makes him even more lovable and why he is so popular. When on stage, Taemin can turn his sexy, sensual side up to 3,000 and he becomes the most powerful and magnificent performer that commands the stage. But the minute he step off the stage he becomes quiet and shy and he blushes when people compliment him for his looks or performance. When not on stage, Taemin is known for being sort of innocent and kind of naive and a little ditsy, as only the maknae (youngest member) of a group can get away with -- he is 2 to 4 years younger than the rest of the SHINee members and he plays up being the baby when he is around them, and they pretty much will do anything he asks. He knows how to be cute when he wants something, but he hates it when someone asks him to be cute. LOL. And, as the youngest member of SHINee, Taemin's talents are one reason why SHINee are one of the top groups in the industry and why they have such legendary status. SHINee is made up of some of the absolute best singers, dancers and performers in the entire industry. With 13 years since their debut, they still command one of the top spots. When Taemin debuted in 2008 as part of SHINee he was only 14 years old and, yet, he was already known as one of the best dancers in the industry, and he has only gotten more magnificent over the years. SHINee are a 5 member group that is known for their live vocals and amazing dancing. They are known as CD-quality singers because they sound just as good live, if not better, than they do recorded. SHINee always sings live. The ONLY thing they are not good at is lip syncing so they avoid it at all costs, so when you hear SHINee singing 95% of the time it will be live. They have trained their entire career to be able to sing live for 3+ hours straight and always sound flawless while performing extremely complex choreography the whole time. SHINee is the group that really set the standard when it comes to live performances. It's literally known as the SHINee standard and it's what all other groups work to reach.

The woman he is dancing duet with is also the choreographer

[@caresereth3611]

Congratulations for discovering the KING

[@MinSung931]

This song is my fav by my bias Taemin, and this is actually the choreo I'm starting to learn. It's so sensual and the way he moves is just so majestic and fluid

[@lei6v636]

Miss my baby! I enjoy your reaction😆 thank you for discover the king!

[@Saddlemomma]

You have just witnessed the out-of-this-world, legendary King of Kpop - Lee Taemin - also the most beautiful man in the industry, inside and out. As an artist, Taemin has no fear and will regularly address things he views as negative with his music, such as standard Korean cultural norms which he doesn't agree with. This 2017 MV is a perfect example of this. For Taemin, who breathes dancing, dance is an expression of art; a verb; not a gender. Therefore, he sees no reason why males and females should be segregated into specific roles or disciplines. This was the motivation for the choreo for "Move" in which Taemin performed a "genderless" dance with his girl gang to prove that men and women can create the same emotion and spirit within dancing because it's an art. This created a HUGE shift in the KPop music culture and became a defining moment in their music history. Everyone in Korean entertainment began covering the dance and it was dubbed the "Move Disease". In fact, the phenomena is still ongong. SF9 just did a cover for Move during their competition on "Kingdom" this year and won. Taemin is the youngest member of SHINee and debuted in 2008 when he we just 14 as their main dancer. He is a totally natural dancer meaning he taught himself beginning at age 10 and was snatched up by SM at an open audition at the age of 12. He is considered one of the top 3 dancers in the industry (I consider him the best). He just turned 28 in July and is currently in the military. He dropped this mega-bomb of an MV one week before leaving. Taemin, as well as SHINee, is a LEGEND and icon of the Kpop industry. Like SHINee, Taemin is extremely creative and experiments with his solo work. Creating new sounds and a completely new genre, T-Pop (Taemin Pop) is right up his bailiwick. This is why he cannot be compared to any other idol other than his SHINee members. He regularly mixes genres together to produce new sounds never heard of in Kpop before. For instance, his 2020 & 2021 songs, "IDEA" and "Advice" are conglomeration of genres you don't hear of everyday, but which work, and sound fantastic. He has written some of his own songs and will tweak the lyrics of other songs he chooses from the SM vault. Taemin also likes to play vocally with his music, especially with "Advice". Other lyric videos like "Impressionable", where he plays with the idea of luring someone in like a spider in a web catching insects, or "Light", "Heaven", "Mystery Lover", or the R&B "Strings" where he equates himself to a stringed instrument to play also show his masterful playfulness and command over his vocal abilities. He also comes up with performance ideas that Kpop has never seen before....like singing and dancing on a 45-degree angled wall that he had specially constructed for one of his concerts. He has now improved the design and it can raise and lower independently with three sections. In short, you will never find another solo artist who is as out-of-the-box and Avant Garde as Taemin. Known as the "ACE" of SM Entertainment, Taemin is unique in the Kpop world and this is why he is so revered and respected in the industry. Currently a soloist, SHINee member and SuperM member, he's called the idols' idol because so many new idols cite him or SHINee as the reason they got into the industry in the first place. He is also universally known as the kindest, gentlest, and most humble guy in the business. He's generous with helping new idols and polite to a fault. All who work with Taemin admire him and can't say enough positive things about him. They talk about his dedication and extreme work ethic (For this MV, "Move", he danced 18 hours straight in a rain setting to get the perfect result.) You can see what Lyricists, directors, producers, choreographers, music critics and other idols have to say about him in the mini-doc, "The Artist: Taemin": kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2PCfol4rdKXr8U Many wish to work with him in some capacity. Thank you for reacting to him, and I hope you will continue to explore his and SHINee's vast discography. There's a LOT to see and hear from these legends!
