SHINee 샤이니 '데리러 가 (Good Evening)' MV REACTION *VOCALS FOR DAYS!* 

This was their first comeback after losing a member, Jonghyun (rip), to suicide. They decided to renew their contract on their own decision and to continue making music to come together in unity to heal and in commemoration (this comeback I mean). Forever they are 5 members and will be remembered and reminded as so for the fans and Shinee. There was an empty chair in the beginning and the one shadow in the well at the end. Also this mv had mainly the color aqua pearl blue/green as that's the fandom color so this comeback is truly for Shinee and the fans And if you look at the lyrics of this song it feels like it's for their angel member, Jonghyun, and the fans. There's so much more to this mv (like the fox and all) and song but I'll leave it to the fans, the Shawols, to explain. I'm not a Shawol but I've dabbled in some Shinee and respect them immensely. #5hineeForever

SHINee is a South Korean boy group formed by SM Entertainment in 2008. The group is composed of four members: Onew, Key, Minho, and Taemin. Originally a five-piece group, vocalist Jonghyun died in December 2017. 💕

(I know this comment is super late, but I really hope you take the time to read it because I think it will help you to understand this song, MV, chorography and SHINee better.) To understand SHINee's "Good Evening" MV what you need to know is that it had only been about 6 months when this MV came out since their main vocalist, Jonghyun, died, and this song and MV is all about how SHINee and Shawols have been grieving and are finally ready to begin to heal and come out of the darkness into the light. The album is called "The Story of Light" and its all about finding the light out of the darkness, etc. Its about how the members are learning to continue on without Jonghyun and find happiness and light in a situation that will forever be difficult. This was their first release off their three part trilogy album. May 25 was SHINee's 10th anniversary so this was also important because it was a comeback to commemorate their 10 years as a group. SHINee debuted in 2008 when Onew was 18, Jonghyun was 17, Minho and Key were 16 and Taemin was 14, so now after 10 years they are all in their late to mid 20s. Onew will be entering the military in December because in Korean age he is considered to be 30. So this is another reason why this comeback is important because at the end of all this, it will be at least 2 years, probably more -- as the rest of the members will have to enter the military to serve their mandatory service over the next few years -- before we see them all back together again. So SHINee are part of the second generation of Kpop and yet they are younger then most everyone in their generation and are the same age or even younger than most of the third generation Idols which include groups such as EXO and BTS, etc.They debuted young and have the experience of seasoned veterans. It just goes to show you why they are legends in the industry. The choreography for this song is very deliberate. The reason the choreography is like that is because it depicts them going through the grieving process and it tells the story of all the emotions they went through and how now at the end they have made the choice to continue on as a group and keep on running, etc. The choreography is really complex and beautiful and really fits the song well, once you see it in its entirety and start to understand the story behind it all. In the MV, not only is the shadow that appears when they look into the tunnel/well (whatever you call it) speculated to be Jonghyun's shadow, but the fox is thought to also represent him. Onew intensely stares into the eyes of the fox, almost as if he is communicating with the fox through his thoughts, and to me its as if he is sharing a moment with Jonghyun. There is a fox in the story "The Little Prince" and "The Little Prince' was one of Jonghyun's favorite stories, plus a fox often represents the after life and the spirit of someone who has passed on reincarnated in many cultures. Also in the beginning you see an empty chair. An empty chair is often used to represent the spirit of someone who has passed on as well. But that's just a small portion of the hidden messages within this MV. If you really delve in deep you will discover that the whole MV can be connected to SHINee forever being 5 members and them including Jonghyun in all that they do. There are 5 trees at the end which could represent the fact that, as Onew has said, even though you may only see 4 members on stage, SHINee will forever be a group of 5. They are in a room full of cameras and their images are being projected on the TV screens, which I see as representing the fact that because SHINee is living in the public eye they can never escape from always being watched by the public. Which doesn't allow them the private space to really grieve and to express themselves privately and they are always being judged (both the members in their grieving process and what Jonghyun had to go through and what ultimately led him to feeling the way he did, etc.) This MV and live stage used a lot of green and aqua blue light to depict the cool and somber feel of the story but it also was used because aqua blue/green is SHINee's fan color and it was used to represent Jonghyun's presents all around them and the support and solidarity they felt with their fans, Shawols. The story in the MV is showing the 5 stages of grief (denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance) the members went through and how they have now at the end of the MV started to find their way out of it and have made the choice to continue to keep on running and continue on as a group, etc.. But I could go on and on ... every part of this MV has a deeper message and meaning, you just have to open yourself up to the fact that everything in this MV has multiple meanings and purposes. The part where Key smashes the piano is only one example of of how SHINee shows how they felt for a while after Jonghyun died -- they were angry at everything, including music, and in a way they were blaming "music" and their careers for what happened and in the MV they were taking their anger out on the piano, etc. The plastic and them flailing under water is supposed to represent how they felt suffocated in their grief and how grieving while in the public eye made them feel trapped at times, etc. Every scene, every image, every movement in their dance, every look, every moment they stand still or look blankly, etc. is very deliberate and is there for a reason. This comeback is part of a three part release celebrating SHINee's 10th anniversary. So they released 3 mini albums with 5 songs each in their " The Story of Light" trilogy and they had 3 comebacks each 2 weeks apart to showcase their lead track on each of their albums. "Good Evening" and "All Day All Night" were their comeback tracks from Episode 1, " I Want You" and "Who Waits for Love" were their comebacks from Episode 2 and Episode 3 was "Our Page" and "Tonight". Their comeback lasted 6 weeks to represent the fact that its SHINee's 6th "full length" album. We have been so spoiled this comeback; it feels so nice to see them doing what they love again. At the end of the six weeks they released a special final MV to celebrate their anniversary and all they have been through over the past 10 years with their song "Countless." "Countless" was an epilogue track that was added to their repackaged "Story of Light" album. In SHINee's fan meeting for their 10th anniversary the members all vowed that SHINee will always be 5 and that Jonghyun will always be involved in everything they do. And during the fan meeting when they performed the choreo for some of their most iconic songs they intentionally left Jonghyun's spot open and only filled in for him when something just wouldn't work without someone in that position. I think we are always going to have reminders of him in all that SHINee does from now on, and that is the way it should be. He was loved and will never be forgotten, and when possible, should always be involved in things that have to do with SHINee. OT5 forever and ever. I think we can feel Jonghyun's presence and influence in this album and songs because a lot of what made SHINee's sound uniquely SHINee (and this album is no exception) was because of Jonghyun. He not only shaped SHINee's sound because he was the main vocal of the group but he also wrote and composed over 60 percent of SHINee's songs, so he can be felt in everything they do. It wouldn't be SHINee if we didn't hear his influence shine through in their music, that is what makes SHINee's sound so unlike any other. This comeback made me so happy :D Like EXO, where we have to search for the hidden meanings and messages in their MVs to piece together their story, I think from now on we will always be searching for the hidden messages and moments that represent Jonghyun in everything SHINee does. SHINee are 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 percent of the time it will be live. They have trained their entire career to be able to sing live and always sound flawless while performing extremely complex choreography. You really should check out some of their live performances because their stages are like none other. Their concerts last 3 to 4 hours straight and they perform nonstop and never sound out of tune or out of breath. They are also one of the best dancers in Kpop and they have some of the best harmonies you will ever hear. If you know EXO then you know how good of vocalists they are, well the members of SHINee actually were mentors to a lot of the EXO members and they helped coach them in their singing. EXO and SHINee were in the same trainee classes together and yet SHINee debuted 5 years before EXO, so that just goes to show you a little bit of what makes SHINee so amazing and why they are considered legends.

They are a 10 year old group btw^^ Please react to more SHINee... btw they will be having two more releases in June.. hope that you will react to them too ^^
