his nickname is called the michael jackson of KPOP! he is really talented. He can control his body sooo well.... so many idols look up to him. He is a second generation idol ;) Watch more of his art that he put out!
@@taemin_eternalTHIS!!! I discovered Taemin and SHINee super late (about 7 months ago) and they are now one of my top favorite groups of all time . I’m happy I found out about these legends.
FIRST!! Taemin is an absolute legend. He has been with the super group Shinee since 2008. He is 30 years old so he has been a KPOP performer since he was a child. I love his legendary song/video, MOVE.
Taemin’s voice is everything, he’s a king of ballads! But to be honest he’s a king of everything, truly legendary artist in Kpop! I sincerely recommend you to thoroughly check out his entire discography and react to all of his title tracks. If that’s impossible make sure to at least react to Criminal, Advice, Move and IDEA (All have MVs). And if you want to hear his ballads - Rise (live performance from his Sirius concert) is a must see. Plus songs like 2 Kids ( which has MV) and Day And Night ( also has MV) truly showcase his vocal abilities. Taemin is a true idol of idols, areal phenomenon in Kpop industry. It’s cause he’s literally the dancing God of Kpop, but at the same time has really strong, versatile and unique vocals, which makes his discography incredibly interesting and super satisfying. I truly hope to see you react to Taemin in the near future!
Fun fact: That's not just any female dancer in Taemin's "Want" MV. The girl you see highlighted in the shadows is Yoo JiMin (Karina) who is the leader and main dancer of aespa, which is also under SM Entertainment. She participated in this song as a rookie trainee even before aespa's debut. ("Want" was released in February 2019 and aespa didn't debut until November 2020.) She also participated in some of Taemin's live comeback stage performances and you can see her in Taemin's dance practice video. Taemin's "Want" is one of those songs that the lyrics take the song and performance up to the next level. :D The lyrics give the song and performance a whole other feel and it helps to explain the images and story you see being told in the MV. Many people think that "Want" has a vampire vibe, and I can see where some might get the vampire feel from this MV. After all, one of Taemin's nicknames is SHINee's eternal vampire because in some performances and MVs, the way he looks and the aesthetic of the performance gives him a vampire image. However, in "Want" Taemin is supposed to be portraying Lucifer. That's why he seems to have a love affair with those snakes. (The ones he is holding are real snakes.) And, like Lucifer, he is supposed to be seducing the audience and the girl using his devilish powers, which is why the choreography looks like he is slithering like a snake. The gate you see him standing in front of is supposed to be a representation of "The Gates of Hell " from French artist Auguste Rodin. Taemin is Catholic, and most of his MVs showcase his faith as it tells the story using numerous Biblical references. The style and aesthetic in "Want" is just the kind of vibe we have all come to expect from Taemin. He has a very sensual/sexy way of moving and, as a soloist, it's kind of his signature thing. That is why all his songs are titles such as "Danger," "Soldier" "Sexuality," "Tiger," "Press Your Number," "Guess Who," "Mystery Lover," "Hypnosis," "Crazy 4 U," "Flame of Love," " Under My Skin," "Thirsty," "Want," "Criminal," etc. or "Ace," "Already", "Door, "Pretty Boy," "Move" "Artistic Groove," "Famous," "Idea," etc. Each song is meant to show you exactly why he is one of the best in the industry even just by their titles. I find it interesting that all of his songs, with the titles alone, tell you exactly what Taemin is all about. If you look at all the titles of his songs, you will see that the titles convey one of two things about him, either painting a picture of his sexy and sensual onstage personality, or they explain his dedication and passion as an artist. If you like his dancing in the MV, you have to see his "Want" dance practice video to really understand how intricate and breathtaking Taemin is with this choreography. No one moves the way Taemin does. Taemin is very unique and never does the same thing twice, he is constantly switching up his sound and dance style. However, you will see that 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 started when he was a child by copying dancers that he saw on TV, such as Michael Jackson and Kpop star Bi Rain. And he didn't have any formal training until he joined SM Entertainment at the age of 11. He debuted as a member of SHINee in 2008 when he was 14, so he has been in the industry for more than 15 years now. As trainees, SM originally planned to make SHINee a hip-hop group, so Taemin's dance training started out focusing on hip-hop dance styles such as popping and locking. However, over the years, he has devoted himself to learning every style of dance. Taemin is literally the artist that everyone within the Kpop industry looks up to and respects.
Ahhh yes, our beloved, seductive, alluring, and LEGENDARY Taemin! This is Taemin in his more mild state. Now if you want to see absolute burning fire Taemin, then also react to his latest 2021 solo MV, "Advice"! That being said, any Taemin song is a GOOD song. In fact any SHINee song, is also a GOOD song. Taemin is the youngest member of the also legendary, trendsetting group SHINee. They debuted with five members in 2008 and just recently celebrated their 15th anniversary with an absolutely astonishing comeback. Unfortunately, we were missing two of the brothers: Jonghyun, who we tragically lost in 2017 and who is now their resident guardian angel and Onew who had some health issues and is recovering. We are all praying he will be back soon. Taemin was only 14 when he debuted with SHINee as their main dancer. He was self-taught in the street dance style and is a master at popping, tutting, locking, and isolations: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Qo18L3_Kc0Y.html As such, He is not locked into any specific dance discipline and easily learns and incorporates many different dance genres into his own style making him unique among the many excellent dancers in Kpop. He is fondly known as the king of Kpop, the Korean MJ of Kpop and dance king of Kpop. At just 14 at debut, poor Taemin couldn't sing due to immature vocal cords, however, with the help of fellow brothers Jonghyun and Onew (two of the most powerful vocalists in Kpop) Taemin quickly learned and started getting more lines in SHINee songs by 2010. He became so good that SM chose Taemin as their first-ever male soloist from an active group. He was an instant success, and a legend was born. He is now a member of SHINee (his home); SuperM, and a soloist. Taemin's songs are DEEP and philosophical. He's a master at layering multiple meanings within his songs. This is one case in point...lol. Like you, many think this song is seducing a woman. However this is a misdirection. "Want" employs many Christian elements to tell a specific story, as Taemin is a devout Catholic. The T-Pose which is a signature pose of his is in reference to the Cross, and he usually incorporates the sign of the Cross into his choreos. This song is a retelling of Genesis 3 -- the serpent and temptation. Let me explain: During the introduction phase, we see alluring snippets of Taemin in various poses with snakes and smoke (smoke & mirrors) however, you also see what looks like pools/drops 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 & Ugarit - 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 guardian figures for gods. Eve wasn't talking with a snake, but a divine, shining throne guardian = Lucifer. 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 using the language, culture, and history of that time period - from the second millennial BC up through the 1st Century AD. Things don't mean what you think they do now. The glowing, bright white shirt Taemin wears fits in perfectly with the symbolism for "shining" and "the light". The chief adversary of Christ, was Lucifer (MEANING: "Light Bearer", or "The Shining One"). 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 inconvenient truth. It's more important to satisfy your own desires than to rip the scales from your eyes and act on truth. The eyes are the mirror to the soul. 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 it was mysterious; you couldn't see beneath the surface; many died in it's chaotic waters. This is why the Bible (in Revelation) says there will be no more seas = no more chaos. Just as in Genesis 1 when God calmed the seas that covered the Earth which means He brought order out of chaos. When Adam and Eve were awakened to knowledge of good and evil, chaos once again 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; actually scholars aren't sure what fruit it was) 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 (truths become lies and vice-versa) and turns it into something "sweet" to the point it's justified and then those who can still see the corruption, try to warn people, or don't themselves partake of that sin, are shunned. It was the serpent who distorted the truth and tempted with the one "forbidden apple" rather than the other acceptable fruit (like the fruit of the Tree of Life which gives immortality rather than death). Look at the state of our current world today, especially the last two years! Sin is running rampant and the world is in utter chaos. Right is wrong and wrong is right. Sin invades so slowly, so subtly and satisfies your cravings to the point 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 rather than God). 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, driven by their selfish desires. 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 toward the end of the MV. You are left with a choice: 1) Embrace the sin and willingly go through those gates (guaranteeing passage through the gates of what the Bible calls Hell -- an afterlife without the presence of Jesus, which also means utter darkness as Jesus is the light and the truth), or wash yourself clean in pure (holy) water (Christ promised to gift us with living water -- which was himself; his pure sacrificial blood that washes us clean), and there's only one way to do that - by believing in and accepting Christ as our savior -- the one who died for us. I'm sure there's probably much more that I've missed. Taemin's 2020 album, "Never Gonna Dance Again" Acts 1 & 2 with "Criminal" & "IDEA" feature Heaven and Hell; light and dark - typical Christian themes - within the concepts of the entire album (Stockholm syndrome & Plato's Theory of Forms), and "Advice" reminds him not to listen to the advice of the collective "one" (Lucifer's whisperings, negative fans, sometimes the company, outsiders) but to take his own advice because he wants to remain true to himself, his faith, and his own style of music which transcends the word, "Kpop". Thanks for reacting to shining SHINee maknae Taemin, and I hope you will also react to SHINee, as well as their solo stuff. They are all famous solo artists as well.
-awwwww my man Taemin he’s the best. His vocal tone and his aesthetic as a whole is very sexy. Taemin can make you feel sad and sexy lol. Some great songs by him are Strings Heaven Soldier Clockwork The whole want album Back to you Flame of love Love
OMGGGGGG TAEMINNNN!!!! You should check out Advice, Criminal, Idea !!!! He's in a group called SHINee (you can check out Don't Call me, Atlantis, Sherlock and their latest comeback Hard, Juice and The Feeling :) oh and i nearly forgot ... he is in another group as well called Super M ....yes that's a lot, he's the idol of others idols
OMG you guys reacted to Taemin I loved him so much, thank you for reacting to Taemin, please react more of his solo songs like you should react to SHINee since it's the group that Taemin belongs to. 🙏🙏
Welcome to Taemin, the one man you will nevet forget (with his absolute best song you started😂). You will compare everyone to him and he will be your standard from now on. Taemin is the unrivalled king of kpop - please note that down, important fact in music history 😎🤣 and the only respectable answer when questioned. Also: When in doubt, it's always Taemin 😉. Check out Heaven for vocal brilliance and Rise for all the ballady emotions.
If you love ballads check out Taemins recommend list as people have said. Also check out 2 other solo artists from Shinee ( Taemin is a member)..Onew and Jonghyun. They have cornered the market and my heart in that space. Enjoy gentlemen and keep reacting to more of the Shinee members.
Love Taemin! Art in motion! His dance practices are really fun as well. And, good call, he is considered MJ of Korea. I suggest Criminal, Thirsty, Advice and Move
Welcome to Taemin, he is an Artist and he's been called the "idol of idols" by the industry and the press. If you love ballads, just keep going with Taemin. He debuted with SHINee in 2008 (they just celebrated their 15th anniversary), he debuted as a soloist in 2014 and he debuted with SuperM in 2019. That being said, SHINee is Taemin's home and they have a Lot of ballads too. You should def. react to SHINee also.
Taemin is part of Shinee SHINEE debuted in 2008. Shinee is considered "The Princes of K-pop" for their perfect harmonies, classy dance moves, and trend-setting fashion. The group is composed of four members: Onew, Key, Minho, and Taemin. Originally a five-piece group, main vocalist Jonghyun passed away suddenly in December 2017. Some songs/MV's to listen to from my list-- older list: 1 - Ring Ding Dong 2 - Lucifer 3 - Shinee Girl 4 - Sherlock NEWER: 5 - Hard 6 - Juice 7 - The Feeling 5 - Don't Call Me 6 - Atlantis 7 - C.O.D.E. 8 - Heart Attack 9 - Marry Me They each have solo releases too, of which Taemin is the most prolific and is considered the "MJ" of K-pop. Just watching him perform is proof. He also did a mesmerizing dance collaboration with Jimin of BTS at an awards show; you can see it on RU-vid. Songs/MV's: 1 - Advice (1of the best song/MV's of his... Newest) 2 - Criminal 3 - Idea 4 - Move Min-ho: 1 - HeartBreak 2 - I'm Home 3 - Chase Onew: 1 - Blue 2 - Dice 3 - Nessun Dorma (opera shows how powerful his voice is) 4 - O - CIRCLE Key: 1- Bad Love 2 - Gasoline 3 - Hate That.... 4 - Forever Yours
If i may suggest a ballad or softer song by Taemin, he performs this LIVE in concert in Japan the song is I'm Crying, also his MV Sayonara Hitori in japanese or Goodbye in Korean, Sayonara Hitori was orgianally releaseed in Japan, but when he competed on Hit the Stage (where he competed against Ten from WayV and Shownu of Monsta X) he re-wrote the song so that the Korean audience could understand the lyrics
Taemin and Jimin are best friends and have performed together (ck it out). Also, you should watch Taemin in this, he will blow your mind: Taemin is art. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sQg4VCB3bYw.html
AHHHH I'm so excited you guys are checking out Taemin!! He's considered and accepted as the idol of idols in KPOP, many many current stars grew up watching him and wanting to be idols themselves! Taemin is from SHINee, a group from 2008 with five original members! He's considered one of the very best dancers in KPOP, and he started really young at age 14. I would recommend you guys check out these music videos by him, I really think you'll love them: -Criminal -Advice -Danger -Sayonara Hitori -Think of You

I love your reactions and I'm so happy that you guys discovered Taemin, he's one of my favorite artists, hope you react to his ballads they're beautiful
Taemin is considered the idol of idols, the King of k-pop. Each of his songs becomes iconic, his way of dancing is unique and inimitable just like the one he has always looked up to, MJ. I suggest you watch and listen to more of his too: you won't regret it.
Love Taemin - so talented. I think you guys would like SuperM - a group that Taemin is a member of. SuperM was created as a mashup of 'handpicked' talents from different groups. Their first single 'Jopping' is amazing, both visually and musically. Give it a look.
CANT BELIEVE YOURE REACTING TO HIM!!!! I'M SO EXCITED YOU REACT TO BTS AND TAEMIN MY FAVORITESSSS (love shinee too, taemin's group. hpe you'll get there
You have to check out Taemin’s “Idea” mv and hell yes to Taemin’s ballads. Recommend “2 Kids”, “Just You and Me” and “Rise” live I think his Japan Sirius concert version. You’ll love it! Taemin’s dance songs are popular because he is the King of Dance BUT his ballads are absolutely fantastic. Just sit down and listen to all of Taemin’s B-Side. 👍🏼👑
second on 2 kids but Just you and me is like way different it is a contemporary dance performance so it is hard to compare with others. a really different category
Taemim é uma lenda do kpop ele se inspira muito em Michael Jackson e tem um vídeo onde ele e Jimin do BTS fazem uma colaboração chamado Showdown, excelente para uma reação. 💜🇧🇷
Taemin is known widely as the MJ of Korea, the idol of idols, as one of the princes of kpop (his group Shinee are the Princes of Kpop). He is known as one of the best dancers and performers, starting in mega-group Shinee at 14 and having an illustrious solo career as well. He is known for his androgynous looks, makeup, and fashion, his willingness to play with his looks to further his art. He is the idol of idols because even artists older than him look up to him. I recommend his songs Move (his biggest hit), the NGDA trilogy (Criminal, Idea and Advice which were his last few before his military service), Press Your Number, Famous, his slower songs Soldier, Heaven, and 2 Kids (which he improvised the dance for in the MV).
Please React to Taemin v Michael Jackson Part 1 and 2. Taemin said When he was 10 years old he seen Michael Jackson "move" lead in Smooth Criminal. Taemin said that's when he started dancing. Taemin was influenced an inspired by MJ.
Taemin has been in the music industry for 15 years (17 if you count the training he started at age 12). He is NOT a new name. BTW he is 30 years old now.
Okay guys BTOB Killing Voice. The ballad kings, live voice kings. You will not regret it at all. Taemin is the best dancer in Korea and I will fight people on this even thou JHope is my favorite dancer since 2013. I recommend Move the performance video
Taemin is a legend in K-pop. Move is one of his most popular songs: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DtCjo8T_6iA.html This is a video of a live performance. There is also a music video.
Hope you guys check out some more taemin on this channel, loved this reaction. Some taemin recommendations: Criminal Advice Drip drop Press your number (dance ver) Move Danger Ace Flame of love Sayonara hitori Thirsty (I would also recommend watching either the dance performance versions of these mvs or the dance practices because the dude can move)
I think you probably have seen or heard Move before thats why familiar. you cant have avoided it, it was a very universal "mania". it is so funny how Taemins´videos are sexy and mysterious and he himself is like a cute duckling. it is impossible to not like him. You could react to: Guess who, Strings and 2 kids from his songs
my Taemin is one of the most talented singer and dancer in all kpop industry all his singles solo or in his band SHINEE are tube. You should try "criminal"
