Finally Guilty reaction is here! This song has me on a chokehold since it came out. From its vision to the dance to the settings to the vocals, this song is mesmerising and I cannot wait for you all to dig deeper into it. Taemin truly outdid himself in this song, and it remains my favourite song of him ❤
Guilty manages to be heart-gripping even when mistranslated, can you imagine how much more intense when the under-layer is exposed by professionals? Curious cats please go watch GUILTY MV EXPLAINED by Agatho. Try to stay calm throughout. You're welcome!
Singing like the abuser and dancing like the abused...Idol of Idols indeed! Also, the graphics - especial Taemin wearing Key's clothes lol, I see you Shawol! ♥
Shawols!!! NEWS BREAK! 6 nominations for Taemin in MAMA award 2024!! GUILTY got THE SONG OF THE YEAR nomination YES YES YES let's build the buzz for GUILTY AGAIN!! Perfect timing from ReacttotheK or is this coordinated 😂or just synchronicity????? LOL
That's the beauty of this. It actually does show him in a relationship. The relationship is between himself and the demon within him (represented by Taemin wearing the headdress) be it the conflict of his celebrity status and the indulgences & temptations of fame, or remaining true to his Christian worldview), the relationship between him and the industry, or loving what he does despite all the s3xua1ization that goes on within the Kpop world (not to mention his disastrous military service). There is so much to unpack in this MV it's unreal. Taemin has said this is the most personal MV/song he has done. It reveals a lot. It's his last solo MV from SM, and I have to wonder if, on one level, it's a statement to them as well. Now that Taemin is with BPM, you can see he is demonstrably happier and he's finally getting the promotion he has deserved for years. BPM is showing that they value Taemin as an artist.
I feel so conflicted concerning Taemin’s move from SM to BPM. On the one hand, you can see that he’s much more excited about where his career is headed under BPM, but I have to say I was somewhat disappointed with the audio quality of Eternal. It’s still Taemin, but decreased in the quality of both the music video and the audio engineering. If you compare the quality of the mixing of the Guilty album and the Eternal Album, the contrast is rather stark. There’s a muddy quality to the overall sound of Eternal that I found disconcerting. Perhaps it’s a matter of difference in quality of resources between SM and BPM that accounts for it. I don’t know. I just wonder how much better Sexy in the Air would have been had it been produced by SM. I say this as a dyed in the wool fan of Taemin. Am I the only one who feels this way?
Thanks for the detailed breakdown of Taemin's fantastic song. He always pushes himself to perfect the concept of the song through his styling, dance moves and vocals -- he elicits so many emotions with his performance.
I feel like this clip is a mini-film... about pain, injuries of varying degrees of severity, and even those where minors are. it's scary, shocking and amazing at the same time
When this mini album came out right around Halloween, it was perfect. Had it on repeat for weeks! My favorite Taemin Title track and one of my favorite Kpop albums 🤩
The release of ghis reaction is well-timed cuz I *just* listened to the album for the first time. I put off listening to it cuz I just couldn't move past the NGDA era (a masterpiece). 15:13 puts words to why this song reminded me of the WANT era. There's a tempting feel to it and i wonder if, in some ways, it's calling back that era.
YESSSSS, i’ve been waiting for this. Cause i like watching reaction videos but i felt so sad that not a lot of reactors paid much attention to the striiiiinggs on this song. It’s just sooo good
yaaaaay taemin! it's so interesting seeing you break down a song that uses this kind of instrumentation - really loved the workshopping y'all did in the chord progression chapter, that was fascinating
PLUS, that part in the bridge where taemin stops singing and it’s just the strings hnnnghh so good and adds more drama to the song. Srsly, the reason why i prefer to listen to yt cause it’s not included in the song in spotify 🥲
This song is a MASTERPIECE. A show!! It gave me major thriller-christian-horror vibes??? Not even a fan of Taemin, but he always release music that is true to himself and doesn't follow the current trend.
the downside would be the pause after the bridge which seemed needless especially if you watching the live performance which that part was omitted making the song hit harder in live than the mv.
all the challenges of this were art!! (taemin + hyunjin is a highlight for me❤) compilations of them would be so cool. …wait, there MUST be compilations!! 🏃♀️💨
hey guys, I don't know if you have heard but there's a boycott forming for riizes seunghan. If u have a reaction scheduled for any of riizes songs could you postpone it or cancel it? thanks love your videos!!
It's not necessary. No one should be treated this way for kissing a woman or smoking. Ridiculous fandom. I will never listen to Riize because of the pathetic fandom.
please avoid misinformation :) there is no boycott and seunghan wasn’t guilty of anything other than being a teen. there are no upcoming riize reacts that i currently know of (i know because i’ve listened to their whole discography) but we would still appreciate if you kept the comments drama-free and respect all (non-convicted) current and former idols as they are 🫶
@@Saffion hey I don't think I explained myself correctly, the boycott is in favor of seunghan and I know he did nothing wrong. Please stop following riizes official accounts and start pirating their music so sm realises that more people want him in that out
@@Saffionon tiktok their talking about boycotting SM which means all idols under it. I saw a post last night that said if you care about riiize seunghan then we have to stop listening to any upcoming music albums anything from Aespa, NCT, Taemin,Shinee, etc. and tbh idk what to say to it bc that’s mainly the groups I listen to so
