    I think the lyrics would help you understand better. For example, "Under my skin" seems like a light song but it tells the story of Taemin having a hard time loving himself. And "Famous" is not about a narcissistic guy. Actually, it's about the toxicity of having fame. Yes, I think in general Taemin's discography is very deep and full of symbolism. But the Japanese is even more so. It's fascinating ♡ "Taemin missing hour" here ✋🏻~

    Yeah, I was going to recommend reading the lyrics to Under My Skin. I thought it was a gorgeous song before but when I learned what he was singing about it took it to a whole other level and is now one of my favorite Taemin songs (which is saying a lot because he’s my ULT)

    With Taemin you really always need to check lyrics to get the whole grasp of the songs, for example Think of you is upbeat but the lyrics about taemin not being able to love himself and wanting to get help. Same as that, Under my Skin came out in 2018, the lyrics are very personal to him and he even chose to make a MV to this song over the actual title song since it meant so much to him and he really wanted to convey this message; it’s basically about him having a dark side to himself (dark thoughts) and in an interview he said the song is about how his shinee members and shawols helped him to not succumb to the darkness, which tried to consume him after december 2017. When he performed this song live on his concert in 2018 he actually broke into tears right before and even after as well

    Taemin's "Flame of Love" is telling a story of love and passion. Taemin and the girl were in a car accident in this MV and the girl died. Taemin was so distraught that he was incarnated as a phoenix in order to use the phoenix's powers to bring her back to life. As you might know, phoenix are mythical birds that have healing powers, etc. But as you saw in the MV, as soon as she was brought back to life, the price Taemin had to pay was with his soul and he traded places with her, where he was forced to wait for her until their souls meet up again after death. That's why when you see her hug Taemin you see his soul leave his body and he is wearing that white outfit, which is supposed to be a death shroud, as he crosses over into the afterlife to wait for her to join him. Taemin gave up his life to allow her to live -- he made the ultimate sacrifice for love. His "Flame of Love" burned so brightly and passionately that he was willing to give up everything to have her live. In the end you see their souls meet again to spend eternity together. "Flame of Love" is another one of Taemin's Japanese tracks that is true art. It's one of the most beautiful MVs. Even though this choreography was complex I am sure it was no problem for him, after all he is one of THE BEST dancers in the industry. LOL

    As many people said, to get the whole experience of Taemin’s Japanese songs you should check the lyrics, for songs like Under My Skin and Famous it’s a must. Under My Skin is deeply personal song for him, when he performed it at the end of Sirius tour he was tearing up. Famous on the other hand is about toxicity and hardships of fame (which you could argue it’s also about him, just in a different way than Under My Skin). Also please try to react (or at least watch it on your own) his Japanese concerts performances. Door, Slave, Famous, they’re amazing!

    You are correct. While Taemin does have quite a bit of Japanese music he only has 4 Japanese MVs unfortunately. So far he has done 2 full solo tours in Japan, one at the end of 2018 into the beginning of 2019 and the other at the end of 2019 before he went on tour with SuperM. Also, his very first solo concert was held at Nippon Budokan in 2017, a very prestigious concert hall where artists are only invited to play. Basically in Japan you know you made it when you are invited to play at Nippon Budokan lol. I love his Japanese concerts. Some of my favourite stages from them are "Tiger" and "Eclipse" both from his 2019 Arena concert tour, "Holy Water" from his Sirius tour, "I'm Crying" at Nippon Budokan, really just too many to list lol. They are all just so beautiful and well done. Especially "I'm Crying" at Nippon Budokan. That one is...just so captivating.

    Taemin's "Sayonara Hitori" is visually stunning and breathtaking. (This is sort of the vibe you need to expect from the majority of Taemin's Japanese MVs, they all have this very Japanese feel to them.) If you are curious how this MV was made, you should look up the behind the scenes/making of video, kzread.info/dash/bejne/g4KA27Ztir3dZ7g.html. You will see that for most of it Taemin is dancing in a shallow pool of water on a green screen set. (Very similar to how Onew filmed his solo debut "Blue" MV.) About the only things that are real in the MV are the water and the piano,Taemin's amazing outfits and his impressive dancing. :D (And because this is one of his Japanese songs, you will get a chance to hear just how fluent and comfortable he is speaking in Japanese. :D) "Sayonara Hitori" is his Japanese solo debut in 2016. However, as you have seen, Taemin and SHINee have been well known Japanese artists since SHINee's Japanese debut in 2011. SHINee and Taemin are so famous in Japan that they are considered part of the mainstream music scene in Japan and many don't even consider them foreign artists. They spend almost 50% of their career in Japan, so they are all fluent in Japanese. The Korean version of this song is named "Goodbye." Sayonara means goodbye in Japanese. His Japanese album was so popular that they decided to produce a Korean version of the song later. The Korean version is what you hear if you watch Taemin's "Devil Inside" performance on the dance competition show Hit the Stage or any award show or concert performances outside of Japan. You should also check out the dance practice, vimeo.com/176263415 -- the dance practice is not on KZread, so you have to use this link from a third-party video sharing site. You haven't even begun to see just how amazing the choreography for "Sayonara Hitori (Goodbye)" is. :P Fun fact: this was the first time Taemin worked with Sugawara Koharu who was also the choreographer for "Move," "Want," "Flame of Love," and she helped choreograph this performance on Hit the Stage, and was one of several who collaborated on Taemin's "Criminal" choreography. Taemin and Sugawara have worked together for years and they are really good friends. She was also the choreographer for SHINee's song "Good Evening." and she choreographed the dance for Girls' Generation's song "Love&Girls," among others. She loves working with Taemin because his dance style and personality is very similar to her's so they mesh really well together, and that is one of the reasons why she has been featured in several of Taemin's projects. This was the first time that Taemin really learned a contemporary style dance and Sugawara was his teacher.

    Taemin's "Under My Skin" song is pretty much about coming to terms with everything that happened to him after Jonghyun passed away in 2017. It's basically about his grieving process and fighting the darker parts of himself with the help of the people he loves, such as his family, the other SHINee members and Shawols. And it's super meaningful to fans that this was the song he chose as his title track which he released in 2018 because it took a lot for him to be this brave and vulnerable after everything we had all been through. Taemin's Japanese songs, in particular, often have very powerful and deep lyrics, and most of his songs have metaphorical meanings and messages. It's always worth looking up the lyrics to Taemin's songs because you are almost guaranteed that there is a lot more going on with the song than you see on the surface. For example, Taemin is a devout Catholic and you will often see biblical references and imagery in his songs and MVs, and there is almost always a spiritual undertone to everything he does.

For Sayonara Hitori he has a dance practice together with her and without her. I find them both dancing to it so gorgeous. To me it feels like a "dancing with your shadow" and "two makes it stronger". They performed it together live as well! Definitely one of my all time favourite choreos in general.

    @milindawilson91752 жыл бұрын

    Although Taemin's "Famous" doesn't sound like it on the surface, if you read the English translation of the lyrics, you see it's actually kind of a sad song. Taemin isn't being cocky, he's being sarcastic and maybe a little facetious. The song is about how he has sort of lost his true self and no longer knows who he really is after becoming so famous. He talks about how living in the public eye all the time, he feels like he is always being watched and he can no longer live a normal life, etc. I interpret the ticking movements, for example, to be a representation of the fear and anxiety he feels with the fact that he always has to keep up a public image and the pressure he feels to be perfect. I think we see him bleeding because it's showing how he is literally putting everything he has into his career, but he feels, metaphorically, like people aren't satisfied unless they see him shed blood, sweat and tears. He feels like he can never live up to the public's expectations of him and that no matter what he does, there is always someone looking to tear him down, etc. Taemin isn't the one bringing the drama, he's talking about the drama being created by others and outside forces that cause drama in his life. (Drama isn't a good thing.) I see the crash test dummies representing several different things. First, he is no longer just going to sit around like a dummy allowing outside forces to use him as their test dummy to see how far they can push him, etc. I also see it as, he is going to stop allowing those brainless dummies to have a role in his life. In other words, Taemin won't allow those dummies -- i.e. those nameless, faceless people and things that are creating the drama -- to continue to exist in his life and he is setting them on fire to get rid of them and end the drama. All of Taemin's songs have similar themes, he uses his solo work to present a message about his life or society in general. Taemin is really smart, and he is very introspective. When he was younger he often struggled to break out of his shell and really express himself. So as a solo artist he uses his songs, MVs and performances to tell his story and to give a voice to the things he feels are important or something he wants people to understand about him or life in general. That is why Taemin's songs/MVs are often about the duality of a person and how he has struggled most of his life to come to terms with how people think of him vs. the way he sees himself, etc. You often see him tied up because it represents how he is always struggling to break free from something. And as a Catholic, he is also very devoted to his faith, so most of his MVs also have a biblical undertone to them that reference stories or lessons from the Bible. I see the message in "Famous" as being connected to the themes within his recent Korean album Never Gonna Dance Again, where he talks about being in love with his career, but that doesn't come without sacrifices, such as having to endure the pain of keeping up a public image and the constant pressure he is under as an Idol who is always being scrutinized by the public, etc. It actually shouldn't be all that surprising that Taemin also scatts/raps in "Famous". Because SM originally wanted to make SHINee a hip-hop group, all the members of SHINee were trained in rap. Hip-hop was the style of music that was really popular in 2008 when they debuted. That is why the members of SHINee are so multi-talented, their rappers are amazing singers and their singers can rap. During most the members' live solo performances, when the featured rapper is unable to perform with them, they will perform the whole song themselves. You really need to check out Taemin's dance practice video for "Famous," you will be even more blown away by his dancing once you see the whole thing in full. This is one of Taemin's more impressive dance practice videos.

    Dear Austin, thank you for this beautiful gift of Taemin today. You've made my day, week, month 💜 I wasn't thinking of the expense of Sayonara Hitori mv (there's a bts as well). [Hit'-o-ree) as in the English short "i" like the word "hit."] In Flame of Love, I think Taemin survived the car accident at first and gave up his life, either for her or to be with her in the next. Shawols, please clarify. Under My Skin is always in my Top 2 or 3 of Taemin's art. I do love the Japanese videos, and for SHINee too. Taemin is such a good actor. (Maybe SM will create a film section to feature movies or fuller length mvs with Taemin.) I also love that Taemin openly critiques media, fame, and celebrity in Famous (it's killing him, his spirit), and all that plus a critique of the industry in Pretty Boy. I know about cars, right? (They trusted him again in Advice, haha!) I remember when I first started watching Taemin, he was either dancing on a car or a piano or had guns around. Everything is infused with symbolism. Again, arigato for your channel, Austin 💜

    Thank you SO MUCH for tracing to his Japanese MVs. I know they’re a crapshoot so many reactors stay away. Sorry for the novel but here we go: Taemin has been my ULT/God ever since I got into Kpop (only last year unfortunately) and obviously I’ve devoured every single crumb of content of his on the Internet. And I’ve come to the conclusion that most of my favorite songs are Japanese releases. I’m (progressional costume technician) theatre trash and so I love all things dramatic and a lot of his Japanese work just ratchets up his already dramatic discography. I’ve read that’s why he tends to be popular in Japan, because of his extra theatrical drama and heightened emotions. (Don’t fact check me on that though…) I’ll admit that Sayonara Hitori was a “grower” for me but it’s now in my top 10 or maybe 5. It’s notable that the choreography for that song was by Koharu Sugawara, the same woman who did Move (and danced beside him in the duo scenes.) She also choreographed Flame of Love, Criminal, and SHINee’s “Good Evening.” They both won an award for their performance of Syonara Hitori on the dance competition show Hit the Stage. And it’s one that you truly have to see in a live performance to completely get its glory without all the beautiful CGI. Under my Skin is one that I initially skipped because I’m not usually into ballads but when I read the lyrics everything changed. I identified with them so much, and the amazing swelling of the strings near the end just punch me in the gut every time. For me, Flame of Love is just Syonara Hitori 2.0 and I’m not exactly sure why. It doesn’t quite hit me the same. My interpretation is that he was driving the car during an accident and she died and he can’t forgive himself for it. And yes, Famous is definitely his most “Korean” sounding song and they eventually made a Korean version. And the choreography is iconic! That hand wiggle tho! My favorite b-side Japanese songs include: Eclipse, Holy Water, Do It Baby, Door (you HAVE to see a live performance! It’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen! kzread.info/dash/bejne/gXllu8GDpLnJk6Q.html) and Tiger. For a few truly delightful songs, there’s Mars and What’s This Feeling. There are a few Japanese concerts available in their entirety on KZread and it’s one of those times when you can see him instantly “switch” and then jump around and have so much fun with his dancers. It’s just adorable. Someone downthread did the Lord’s work and already listed all the times that Taemin wrecked his car but also in the SHINee universe: Minho: Heartbreak SHINee: Tell Me What To Do Get the Treasure (an amazing Japanese MV and I believe the last one they shot with Jonghyun.) And for good measure Taemin: Advice Press your number Flame of love Famous Once again, thank you SO MUCH for reacting to these MVs. Whenever someone does, it gives me some extra excitement because they’re unearthing some new precious gems! (Also if you’ve never heard Soldier or Heaven they’re necessary!)

    great to see you reacting to his japanese stuff !! the albums are definitely worth a listen, he has some amazing japanese b sides, and live performances as well !! i'd especially recommend the performance for "door" (it's very iconic despite being only a b side) and for "eclipse" (especially the one from the xtm arena tour). sayonara hitori definitely grew on me much more after seeing the live performance as well !! the video is cool, but in my opinion it doesnt showcase the choreography very well :( so i'd definitely recommend watching that. it's still regarded as one of his best choreos, even in korea ! the lyrics to under my skin are so beautiful, but break my heart :( it's definitely one of his more close to home songs i feel, the translation is worth a read imo. same goes for the lyrics of famous, they're quite a bit darker than you may expect ! but youre definitely onto something with the burning mannequins :)

    For me, it's because his japanese pronounciation is so gorgeous and pleasing.. I'm familiar with japanese language eventhough I can't speak it myself. But let me tell you, SHINee japanese songs and sounds are different level (or should I say, next level.. haha) They're pretty fluent with it because they do a lot of work and promotion in Japan. But especially Taemin, like I said in the first sentence, his way of speaking japanese language is so mesmerizing. You should react more to SHINee and Taemin discography. Try Door from Taemin and then you should watch the live performance of it. I would love to see your reaction..

    Honestly, Goodbye (Sayonara Hitori) and Flame of Love are my least favorite among SHINee member music videos. I love the choreography version of Flame of Love, as well as the live performance of Goodbye he does with the Koharu Sugawara (who choreographed both songs). I think the dances really shine more than the storytelling of the music videos, despite how cinematic they are.

    OMG Austin thank you so much for this. 3:37 LMAO. And you problaby won't. 😂 This is UMJ, not SM. UMJ is the best, at least with SHINee. What I understand from Flame of love MV is that they had a car accident and she died, Taemin then tried to bring her back to life and in the process he died too, and now they're together in the after life. If you wanna check out Taemin happy japanese songs, I really recommend you those 3: Taemin - Mars: kzread.info/dash/bejne/p2aew5KbmNzdlaw.html Taemin - Into the rhythm: kzread.info/dash/bejne/i6eVz6iblqu2YLg.html Taemin - What's this feeling: kzread.info/dash/bejne/f5mhq8mHmcbgado.html
