Whenever this song shuffles on to my playlist at the gym I stop working out and just dance and vibe (and mouth "rap" Monho's part and Onew's long note).

I totally get it! It's such a blast ✨ -Kay

Es did a pretty good job of explaining all the points in SHINee's "Atlantis" MV, but I just wanted to point out a few other things that I think makes this MV extra interesting. As I interpret the MV, the convenience store is a cover for the fact that it sits on top of a portal to the city of Atlantis. To the average person, the store just looks like a regular store, but if you are in on the secret you know that if you head to the storage room or basement, etc. you will find a magical elevator/submarine that will take you to "Atlantis." I think that move in the choreography where Key and Minho make the circle is them gathering all their power and love and they are blasting it all to the fans (Shawols) or they are sending all their love to the girl who they are singing about in the song, etc. Like a superhero who is summoning all their powers. Because the SHINee members are sort of supposed to have power as the keepers of the portal to "Atlantis," etc. Plus, if I had to guess, it also might be something linking SHINee to SM's Universe. Most of SM's groups' storylines are connected in some way and they are all part of one big story. For example, I think the soda can we see appear in Key's hand in "Atlantis" is connected to the soda can we see in Key's solo "Hate That ..." MV. (However, I'm not yet sure whether the can magically pops into his hand in "Atlantis" because it is coming from its original location in "Hate That ..." or if it appears in "Hate That ..." because Key brought it from "Atlantis." ) Because Minho writes all his own rap sections in SHINee's songs they are all very meaningful, and are strategically placed in the song for a reason. If you pay attention to his lyrics you will see they have a lot of deep meaning and they enhance the story and add more depth to the song. For example, the long sss sound you hear at the end of his rap lines in "Atlantis" are supposed to mimic the sound of waves as they crash on shore or against the rocks, etc. Minho is actually quite poetic when it comes to his songwriting. You should check out the behind the scenes MV shoot for "Atlantis", kzread.info/dash/bejne/nKJq082MftXVaaQ.html, to really see how detailed everything in the MV was.

Heeey how did I not know that Minho writes raps?! Maybe Es told me, but I already forgot. Either way, this makes me happy! Thanks again :) -Kay

I'm an artist, and I can't tell you how much of a chokehold this color palette had on my work for over 2 years. It really transformed my color choices. I've had to move on from it a bit because trends change, but it still lives in my heart. It's just beautiful. I remember when the people who discovered SHINee during DCM era reacted to Atlantis. You could see they were unsure of what was going on. I just laughed to myself. This is who SHINee is. Once you think you know who they are they do something you don't expect. This is why I'm a stan. They always keep me guessing.

I love this ❤️ As someone who dabbles in painting, I absolutely see what you mean! It's such a blast of colour, such a rich world of these tones. There's also something to be said for not sticking to just one thing but trying new things, I think it's harder than one realises at first! Applies to idols and us regular folks :) -Kay

Yea, dear name@IU palette please❤
