Yes, Jonghyun and Kibum sang very much the way they sing now, and Taemin's voice sounded very similar to Jonghyun's because he was still trying to find his style and Jjong was the one helping him with his singing technique. I think that for everyone, especially new fans, it is difficult to listen to 'Ring Ding Dong' at first, but after a while in the fandom, and listening to the version in concert, you realize how iconic it is and each that you listen to it, you only dance. I highly recommend the 'Ring Ding Dong / Lucifer "live performance.
All 5 of them have great voices..✨ But Jonghyun's voice ~ his high notes and falsetto really stands out... But got to appreciate the uniqueness that each of them bring to the group that makes them shine as shinee 💎✨
"Juliette" is one of the dozens of songs that was wrote by Jonghyun, and it was SHINee's first song to win the top spot on music shows. You might recognize the melody of the song because it was originally a song covered by the American singer/actor Corbin Bleu called "Deal with It." When SM bought the rights to the song they kept the melody, but Jonghyun rewrote the lyrics. :D As you can see, Jonghyun was writing songs and making his mark almost from the beginning. And Minho also wrote his rap section in the song. Minho has credits on almost all of SHINee's songs because he writes all his rap parts. This was also part of the era where SHINee started the trend of the colored skinny jeans. SHINee are known for their "school boy fashion/student look" and everyone started wearing colored skinny jeans at this time because of SHINee. They are even trendsetters when it comes to fashion. Never following trends, but always creating them in everything they do. :D It is safe to say that the original trend of colored skinny jeans in the west was probably a transplant from the trend that SHINee started. A lot of foreign idols over the years have told SHINee that the fashion trends they started in Korea were adopted by them in the U.S., Canada, China, Thailand, etc. That's how influential SHINee are. The glasses and masks they are wearing in this MV are crazy because they are supposed to be attending a sort of trendy version of a masquerade event like when Romeo and Juliet secretly meet each other at Juliet's family's costume masquerade ball. The SHINee boys are all supposed to be Romeo and they are searching for their Juliette (Who is played by Krystal from F(X), SHINee's sister group). As you discovered, Jonghyun is known for his Michael Jackson-like vocals. That's just Jonghyun's classic high note style. Jonghyun is known for his MJ style cry and for sounding a little like Michael when he sings any of SHINee's classic R&B songs. Taemin is the one that dances like MJ, but it's Jonghyun that is the one that sounds like him. During "Juliette" (and "Amigo"), Taemin was still growing into his voice, so he doesn't really have a whole lot of lines in the song, so instead they highlighted more of his dance skills. "Juliette" came out in 2009 (promoted alongside "Amigo" which was their repackaged album single), so Taemin was a year older than in "Replay" -- he was almost 16 years old here. Minho is 17 years old here. Key is also 17. Onew was 19 and Jonghyun had just turned 19. As with all of SHINee's MVs, if you really want to see their dancing, you have to check out their performance version MV -- which is designed to highlight the choreography -- or better yet, a live performance. Plus, there is nothing better than SHINee live. Check out their SHINee World Concert V (SWC5) performance of "Juliette" (and "Amigo") from 2016. ruclips.net/video/81qtwuWjYog/видео.html Fun fact: In 2011, as part of their Japanese debut, they also came out with a Japanese version of "Juliette".
I came to watch ring ding dong😂 ahh…takes me back to my childhood. My cousins stanned that gen. Shinee, big bang, super junior, 2ne1 was always playing
you need to listen to Jonghyun singing Juliette live on his own. his version has a totally different vibe and it's so sultry and beautiful! my favourite.
13 years since I know them... and I became hardcore when Juliette dropped. Obsessed by Lucifer. I remember waiting for Lucifer to drop and then making my mom listen to it. Made my sister go to SM Town in Madison Square Garden in 2012 (she was near) just so she could film some footage of them, especially Taemin (I was a Blinger from Replay, but switched to Taemint around Lucifer era... so 2010). I finally jumped the gun and went all the way to Korea to watch SHINee world concert III, first time. Seen them a few times since then haha.
I discovered SHINee in 2010 and became a shawol in 2011.. first comeback was Sherlock in 2012.. so I’ve been a showol for 10 years.. Almost 11. Wow 😂 time flies. Still my one and only ults ❤️
Jonghyun was definitely way ahead of everyone in the beginning vocally while the others improved a ton throughout the years, not saying that he didn't improve either but he was just that amazing since debut carrying most of the songs in both line distribution and high notes that the other members still haven't been able to catch up to even with him absent on the last couple albums (there's a video of all of their song lines time combined on YT and he's still got a pretty significant lead). I wasn't feeling RDD at first but then it grew on me a lot and I think it's a similar case for many people. I especially like their more rock-like approach of it that they did together with Lucifer, that performance is a must see. Next is the Lucifer era, I guess you could also include Hello (the repackaged title track) and maybe some B sides? My picks would be Obsession - another song that Jjong wrote and Quasimodo a strong and emotional ballad (vocals slay) there's also a very good live performance for it.
So so true.. Jonghyun and key were pretty much seasoned trainee material when they were signed. The others needed training and honestly Onew only truly began to flex his vocals once he had the surgery and after Jjong was gone, prior to that he served primarily as their strong stable scaffold for low and high vocals while Jjong did the front man vocal acrobatics. Pretty much how he led as well, Jjong front and Centre, jinki all around support and strength. Vocal coaches often comment that jinki skill was pretty and pure tone precise control while Jjong's was in soaring roaring emotive performance as was Key I think.
As I'm not a fan of kpop, but of Dramas, I usually listen to Osts of dramas if I like and I look for the singer or group, the first time I heard them was at BOF with Stand By Me and I really liked the music but all the music in this drama it was amazing and I didn't really knew who SHINee was, but months later my daughter who is a kpop fan and her Bias is Minho showed me a drama with him, to be honest Minho's acting skills at that time didn't catch my attention but I was in love with a particular song *In your eyes* and my daughter told me that the singer was in the same group as the actor and that I already liked their music on BOF, and the first time I looked it up on YT They had so many songs to choose from and I chose Symptoms and fell in love with the first voice, at that time I knew 2 names and a face Onew and Minho and I asked who he was, I remember my daughter asking me if I knew it wasn't Onew and I replied No, both voices are amazing, but very different, and the second voice came out and I said it was Onew she smiled and said yes and his first was Jonghyun, and for me it all started like that, I liked Key's voice in that song too and that was in 2014 in 2 days will be 7 years, II'm not a Baby Shawol or Old Shawol, Today I have all Their albums, both Korean and Japanese and of course the solos as well not all solos, Taemin released to many my poor wallet kkkkk When I visited Korea I was lucky to buy what didn't have yet from Jonghyun including the SM ballads and his book, I am still not a Kpop fan I only Love SHINee I like some singers and 1 or 2 groups because of the Osts but Only SHINee made a difference
Been with kpop since 1997 saw Shinee hit the scene in 2008 best group still I prefer them more then others TXT is a close runner up love there different style to.
Ring Ding Dong is definitely a song that grows on you. It's so cheesy, but such a catchy earworm that once you've heard the chorus a few time in a row, there's no going back, it's stuck forever. Taemin making really serious faces is because he hated being called cute and being categorized as "the cute maknae" but all the other members agree that doing things like that just made him even cuter 😂 Also I'm glad you saw JoJo! I wish we had a music video for that one! And I'm forever in love with Key's christmas tree hair in the last performance video you watched, it's adorable
I really hope you give f(x) a listen. F(SHINee) were the sweetest, cutest, most talented group of people. There's a cute encore stage with f(x) when SHINee won for RDD. Not to mention Lucifer/Nu ABO collab stage and View/4walls supremacy. 21:00 is Get Down with f(x) Luna. Shawol since debut here. (Former Cassie, I'm sorry Changmin)
I was originally an ELF (SuJu fandom), and when I first listened to SHINee (their Replay debut) I was intrigued, but Love Like Oxygen definitely sealed the deal for me! In the beginning, Jonghyun clearly was way ahead vocally than the rest. They were actually supposed to debut as a rap group since SM said their voices weren't really that good (yet), but since they didn't really have the rapper swag and flow they debuted as they are. Taemin didn't have solo vocal lines during debut since he was 14 so his voice was still developing, and they said that he didn't sing well enough, his voice may sound similar to Jjong early on since he (and Onew) were the ones mentoring him extra to train his vocals. Their progression in engancing their talents and skill is what really amazes me! Every album you can definitely see exponential growth!! Their passion is just ❤️
Can I talk to you energy from that move... funny because on that same ep Juliet was the title for, has a song called talk to you! Krystal from f(x) (SHINee’s sister group) played Juliet! You should definitely check them out if you want to see one of SM’s best acts, and Luna one of the best female vocalists!
LOL i had a good laugh when you mentioned about them emerging from the scaffolding multiple times. it's so true and i've never noticed this till you mentioned it!!!
i've been a fan since 2009, and jojo really took me back to the times when i first fell in love with them, having not listened to it for a long time now. almost teared up from the nostalgia
Didn’t like Ring Ding Dong at first but it’s so fun to listen to especially in the car! The boys didn’t like the song either, not their style but you wouldn’t know it from the passion they perform it with. They can sell it! Lol They came to appreciate the song for the impact it had on their careers. It was fun watching your reaction, thanks!
In 2011, I watched a K-drama called Boys Over Flowers. My favorite song from the soundtrack (OST) was Stand By Me, by a group called SHINee. My first time seeing a video was when my daughter showed me a group she was "discovering". It was Lucifer! Hooked for life! SHINee also did a lot of SNL Korea segments, a reality named "Hello Baby", and some hilarious sketches for SHINee World. Watched them all. I'm currently 65 years old.
Starting my 10th year with SHINee this year? I think? Juliette was written by Jonghyun, and if I recall rightly was one of the first idol-written songs to win an award? SM is notoriously difficult when it comes to idol written songs being chosen. Seriously, it's a huge thing that Jonghyun wrote so many - actually, that SHINee as a whole have a lot of writing credits. (Jonghyun and Minho have the most in SHINee). Jonghyun & Onew were trying to sound like MJ at the start, a form of homage. My favorite mic moments are: Onew singing into the wrong end on stage, realizing it and bursting into laughter while running over to show Jonghyun, all while they're supposed to be singing "live", Onew losing his grip on the mic and flipping it into the air, then almost falling while trying to catch it, Taemin failing to grab the mic from Key during Replay, and of course the famous Dream Girl incident where Minho's mic stand falls apart *and no one but a sharp-eyed shawol* noticed. I just don't like JoJo. It's repetitive and kind of boring. I LOVE JJONG'S RDD HAIR AND NO ONE CAN STOP ME. LASAGNA JJONG FOREVER~! Kim Kibum, 10 years later: "What does fantastic elastic even mean?!" Minho hated his hair.
Long hair Minho in JoJo performance will forever be my religion. I'm shawol since 2013 and it feels nice to make this journey with you, like i'm 15 again :D At the beginning i did't like RDD but it definitely grew on me and i'm addicted to this day. I can't imagine my saturday cleaning without RDD
Ring Ding Dong is that song you think you will cringe when you hear it but then it's a song you cannot even hate. Like whenever I'm down and lonely I blast it on full volume and my day will be better ❤️ One of the most iconic songs in Kpop history
If u watch IU n SHINee show. U will know, SHINee one of the first group who dance and singing it live.. SHINee is so special and improve a lot since then.even back then they're already good.. Because that time not many groups debut and not many singing live.. Only dance
SHINee was the reason i became kinda addicted to Kpop, my first Song was Lucifer so it must be around 2010 or 2011 since it was japanese version of the Song
You should hear Romeo+Juliette that was Taemin's favorite song for a long time. He preformed it solo at 16 and in concert later when he became a soloist and was much older. It was preformed once in 2016 as a group. It is really good. I recommend it. Hear Alive for a good rap exchange between Key and Minho.
ring ding dong isn't usually something i listen to, even though i typically love all of shinee's music. however, we can't deny the impact it had for their career back when it first came out. and you'd definitely love the live performance they did on their SWC5 concert - they really give so much passion in everything they perform, even though this song is OLD and they're probably sick to the bones of it.
RDD definitely grew on me, especially after I saw their live performance of RDD and the rock version of RDD (it's called "Ring my bell")... Initially the autotune threw me off a lot... Please so watch the 'rock version' of their songs 'amigo', 'Ring Ding Dong', 'lucifer' - they have performed these in their concerts and the rock versions are the ULTIMATE versions!!!!!... I have known and liked Minho in dramas since 7yrs, but got into SHINee boys exactly 3yrs back (November 2018)
Hello, for RDD, I love the song 2nd time I listen to it. For 1st time. I didn't really like it. Hahaha, but watching them singing live that time when not group singing live while dancing. Really.. They mesmerised me a lot.. 💞 Like, it's a whole new level for me.. Since I never knew there will be people who did great dancing n singing like SHINee.. Love jojo and juliette as well.. Juliette is the first song of jonghyun chosen as title song. It really means a lot to him.. Miss him a lot. Shawol since 2009 here. Now I'm 26 years old. Haha♥️ will continue supporting them... 💞
I tell you and it’s my desperate plea YOU HAVE TO WATCH RING DING DONG LIVE… I can never believe how I liked this song. I mean I don’t remember. BUT THIS IS ICONIC. It is iconic and yes the MV is so heavy on auto tune because SM was experimenting with SHINee and that year auto tune was trending, hence when you watch the live you’ll see RDD in a new light. DO WATCH IT PLEASE. or react to it with us! ;)
I first discovered them in 2018 when I watched the mv for Ring Ding Dong, which I loved at the time and still do. However, at that time I didn't really dig any deeper into ShiNee. I was still new to kpop, being introduced to BTS by a coworker. So at that time it was all about BTS. That changed in 2020. While watching reaction videos, I discovered Taemin. He very quickly became my ult bias and of course then I had to learn more about ShiNee and SuperM. They've been my ult group for about a year now, and that's not likely to ever change. Btw, ShiNee, in my opinion, has no bad songs. My favorites are: Obsession, A-yo, Who Waits For Love, and Good Evening.
I love your Shinee reactions so much 🥺🥺🥺 I usually never leave comments but I hope you do more Shinee stuff ❤️ and I hope you have a good day or evening or whatever ☀️
i love all the songs cos its SHINee...they were very entertaining...ring ding dong and jojo reminds me of the show the boys did at that time...SHINee Hello Baby...that was fun.
I’ve know them since their debut era, *old shawol Lol 😂 And Juliette is the first and last song I’ve ever tried to dance to, OMG that’s when I realized that dancing is not my world, better to just enjoy their performances.. hahaha
I've been with SHINee since SM dropped their profiles online with literally no warning or hype about 2 days before their debut. 😅 At the time Dong Bang Shin Ki were THE K-pop group, and everyone was excited for a new 5 member SM boy group, but taken back by how they were all absolute babies and that was pretty much all we knew about them. When Replay dropped and was so good (and then when they sang live on music shows, that just didn't happen at the time!) K-fandom was SHOOK. Honestly, watching them all grow up but especially Taemin and Minho has been such a ride. Reaction to Ring Ding Dong was very similar to yours. Even at the time when autotune was big, everyone was like, "but why autotune SHINee? They don't need it." 🤣 And day 1 everyone was like wtf are these lyrics, day 2 everyone was screaming, "SO FANTASTIC, ELASTIC," it was a total meme hahahahaha.
I'm right there with you. I have been a Kpop fan since 2006. I was also following TVXQ and Super Junior at the time and remember when SM surprised us with the announcement of their new boy group SHINee. I was excited for a new group from SM, but they seemed so young at the time. Unlike the other groups that SM had debuted prior to that. But I am so glad I started following them from the very beginning because there really was or is nothing like SHINee out there and even after more than 13 years they continue to stay just as fresh and new as they were from day one. :D
@@milindawilson9175 It's wild to think back to SHINee's debut and how hard it was for international fans, peering at those videos that some kind soul had ripped off TV and were about 4 pixels (or god forbid even recorded the TV with their camera). 🤣🤣 Versus now, when you can hardly go on the internet without tripping over a K-Pop group and it's only as hard as getting on your favs Insta to get new content (Key on social media is honestly such a gift). I stumbled across K-Pop back in the day because a torrent I'd downloaded had snuck BoA's newly released 'Listen to Your Heart' album into it, and from there I was able to go BoA to TRAX to Shinhwa, Rain, and eventually DBSK and SuJu by digging through torrents and LiveJournal posts. Thank god new fans can just go to RUclips these days hahahahaha.
@@raerae734 I know, I remember all those videos where people recorded the TV show while they watched with their video camera and you could hear their family in the background the whole time. LOL I got into Kpop after a friend showed me a K-drama during my last year of college and it kind of just snowballed from there. I am so thankful for streaming sites like Netflix where you can watch all kinds of K content and you don't have to feel like you're surfing on the black market looking for someone's grainy video of a TV show and hoping you can find the whole episode and are able to see and hear it well enough to follow what's happening. K fans today are so lucky to have subs. I would often watch things without subs and just grasp bits and piece of what was happening and was happy just to get that much. It always makes me laugh when people get upset that a video doesn't have subs. They are just way too spoiled LOL.
@@milindawilson9175 > It always makes me laugh when people get upset that a video doesn't have subs. LMFAO, this! I'm like, "Guuuuurl, there were *whole communitites* devoted to fansubbing shitty quality MVs and variety shows back in the day that have now been made extinct, and you are sad about unsubbed videos in 4K? Or waiting 24 hours for subs? THE STRUGGLE WAS REAL AND YOU WILL NEVER KNOW, I WALKED BAREFOOT UPHILL IN THE SNOW BOTH WAYS FOR K-POP BACK IN THE DAY. " 🤣🤣🤣
I have been officially following SHINee since 2012 so it's been a fun ride 😁 They've experimented with a lot of musical genres over the years and I find that aspect of their music to be the most enjoyable. I do love their early era stuff a lot just as much as I love their current stuff. The thing for me is that SHINee has consistently remained true to themselves while still putting out music to wow the masses. I'll ALWAYS love them 💜💜💜
Sis!! Onew's song with Punch called "Way" is out now and daammnn get your tissues ready. T_T The lyrics and the blend of their voices are just woooh... Chills! I can't wait for you to check it out!
Things I picked up.... Eating rameyon as late night snack 😂, sheet face masks, saying 'you did a grate job / you work hard' when leaving work. ( I personally like the last one the most
Ring ding dong live without auto tune sounds a lot better. I think RDD was in the beginning of autotune era where not many other groups or even none of any groups used auto tune that time. If I’m not mistaken
RDD comments: Yeah, autotube is weird There is a car as they are going somewhere? I think to get to that rood they entered 5 times Taemin is 15. Let him live his life 2008 - colorful jeans and noona you are so oretty 2009 - latex and darker concepts I love Minho's hair in RDD... RDD is song that grow on you, it really does
Since 2009 I thought of Ring Ding Dong as a weird song, but the members admit that song helped them A LOT like everyone knew them after Ring Ding Dong. And still unsure especially the cola cola part 😂 But of course the live version redeemed it since we can hear their voices without all the autotunes. And judging by how it's trending in TikTok even in 2021, there's no escaping it 😂
i`ve been stanning SHINEE since Lucifer era (2010) and they immediately became my #1 ❤ for all these yaers i`ve known so many kpop male groups, but none of them could top SHINEE ❤
Soy Shawol desde el 2014 que fue cuando los descubrí. Me encanta Ring Ding Dong, me pone de buen humor. Mi Dino siempre fue el centro en SHINee, todavía lo es 😇. Gracias por reaccionar a ellos una vez más :)
It was one of those Shinee videos that made me still want to say Key, Minho & Taemin are bias wrecking me. It was probably when I first saw Ring Ding Dong. RIP Jonghyun
OMG Yetti this is probably one the most fun reaction videos I've seen in a long time. Thank you for the laugh. This came out in 2009, but everything from the era looks like in the 90s 😂 RDD definitely one of the songs that grew on me
Ring Ding Dong era was my first time listen to SHINee. It sounded a little bit strange now (also their hair style lol), but it was very cool at that time and made me listen to the full album and love their songs. By the way, JOJO and Romeo+Juliet were my all time favorite SHINee’s b-sides.
Newer gen stans might not like RDD, but this song united different fandoms. Even non shawols chanted louder than shawols when this played. The power RDD holds 😂
I think you're still a couple of albums away but I hope you'll include "Your Number", which is a Japanese release, in your journey. The song is such a bop. Such a shame they did not release the Korean version.
To this day I still have no idea what the lyrics to Ring Ding Dong are. The melody, autotune, hair and catchy chorus are too hypnotizing and I've just accepted that I'll never know 😅
This vid is a bit old now but I still wanted to share. ☺️ A friend first showed me SHINee in my 2nd year of HS in 2011. Technically B1A4's debut was the 1st Kpop vid/song I ever heard(I watched it over the shoulder of tht same friend in class, then made her tell me who they were 😂), but SHINee was a close second steadily became the main group I cared about. The longer I've been a Shawol, the more the fandom became one of the safest and friendliest fandoms I've ever been a part of. 💖😊
For next vid. I recommend to u Stand By me (ost), SHINee actually did many osts, before like stand by me, countdown, to the beautiful u, etc etc... 💞 So next song Stand By me, Lucifer, Hello, Sherlock, Dream Girl, Why so serious, Everybody and if can, pls react to Japanese song too, since they debut in jpn in 2011, SHINee has many good songs in jpnese. Like I'm with you, colour of season, keeping love again, kiss kiss kiss, 1000years waiting by ur side, kimi no seide, lucky star, your number, 321,the world where u exist, diamond sky, get the treasure, winter wonderland, etc etc,, many jpnese songs which are all great,
Yayyyy, more Shinee content, girl you give me life with your Shinee reactions, I love seeing people discover these gems, there's still so much to discover, you still have a long way to go, but we'll be there with you! 👍👊💕
I knew about them since their debut because of my little sister, but gladly hopped on the shinee train mid-Lucifer promos.... So I've been a shawol since summer of 2010! :)

A second time thanks for this series. I am coming to shinee late in this era. TVXQ break aprat and i was so sad that some one recommended Shinee to me. It was okay for me at this time. RDD was not so mine at first. I alway said TVXQ do that better and this. 2010 Luficer came out. I watch the mv so that i could say i give them a chance and was caught immediately (the Dance
I discovered SHINee in 2009 due to the Boys Over Flowers OST Stand By Me. Became a shawol that year as well due to Ring Ding Dong lol! Yes, I love Ring Ding Dong from the start. Jonghyun's iconic Baby at the start got me.. and the choreo. Plus this was the song during their show Hello Baby that's why I really love it. And when I saw the live performance from SHINee World 5 (RDD + Lucifer remix which I hope you'll watch too) i was really blown away. But for new people just discovering SHINee I really wouldn't suggest RDD as their first song to listen to as it's not something most people would like immediately given the autotune. Btw - Juliette was written by Jonghyun. I also like Jojo, i found them so cute while performing it in their SHINee World 4 concert.
when SHINee was really big in my country back in 2009, RDD and lucifer were all the rage but i couldn't get into them because i didn't like how RDD and lucifer sounded lol. it was only after my sister forced me to watch Hello Baby that i fell for their personalities and charm, and subsequently got sucked into their music thereafter.
For RRD, at first listen (Shinee playlist) I noted it as interesting. Heard it again in a Taemin/Shinee related video and my thought was 'I have to listen to it again". As I'm more into dance/disco/edm music I love RRD and Lucifer.
I'm glad you still liked it despite the electronic sound! It definitely was part of the era, but I think they managed it pretty well. It just gets stuck in your head. Definitely was one that grew on me over time. Hopefully you like some of the upcoming songs just the same, since we aren't quite out of the electronic genre yet. Lucifer is one of my absolute favorites, so I hope you enjoy!
I still remember loving RDD at first view/listen and a few days later got a big screen monitor to view them in 1080p for the first time! 😅 Ahhh the joy they bring! Jojo took a bit more listens before I got into it. Juliette sounded fresh. Get down was something I didn't expect to like. I hated rap music back then coz I find it hard to understand because they mouth the words too fast. But with Shinee and not understanding Korean made it easy to just enjoy the music and ignore the lyrics. 😆. About Jonghyun's vocals, he's ahead of his time definitely. I remember him being so good that when he was unwell to perform live, SM put Yesung from Super Junior to cover his part. Man, I was so mad about it. I'd rather Onew or Key take over, than a member from another group to do it. It was such an insult, I feel. Don't get me wrong, Yesung is my bias in SuJu. Anyway, glad that all members are vocalists in their own right now. They've grown a lot as artists.

These boys are one of the best thing that ever happened to K-pop!!
FACT!💎
Yes, Jonghyun and Kibum sang very much the way they sing now, and Taemin's voice sounded very similar to Jonghyun's because he was still trying to find his style and Jjong was the one helping him with his singing technique.
I think that for everyone, especially new fans, it is difficult to listen to 'Ring Ding Dong' at first, but after a while in the fandom, and listening to the version in concert, you realize how iconic it is and each that you listen to it, you only dance. I highly recommend the 'Ring Ding Dong / Lucifer "live performance.
Yes.
All 5 of them have great voices..✨ But Jonghyun's voice ~ his high notes and falsetto really stands out...
But got to appreciate the uniqueness that each of them bring to the group that makes them shine as shinee 💎✨
"Juliette" is one of the dozens of songs that was wrote by Jonghyun, and it was SHINee's first song to win the top spot on music shows. You might recognize the melody of the song because it was originally a song covered by the American singer/actor Corbin Bleu called "Deal with It." When SM bought the rights to the song they kept the melody, but Jonghyun rewrote the lyrics. :D As you can see, Jonghyun was writing songs and making his mark almost from the beginning.
And Minho also wrote his rap section in the song. Minho has credits on almost all of SHINee's songs because he writes all his rap parts.
This was also part of the era where SHINee started the trend of the colored skinny jeans. SHINee are known for their "school boy fashion/student look" and everyone started wearing colored skinny jeans at this time because of SHINee. They are even trendsetters when it comes to fashion. Never following trends, but always creating them in everything they do. :D It is safe to say that the original trend of colored skinny jeans in the west was probably a transplant from the trend that SHINee started. A lot of foreign idols over the years have told SHINee that the fashion trends they started in Korea were adopted by them in the U.S., Canada, China, Thailand, etc. That's how influential SHINee are.
The glasses and masks they are wearing in this MV are crazy because they are supposed to be attending a sort of trendy version of a masquerade event like when Romeo and Juliet secretly meet each other at Juliet's family's costume masquerade ball. The SHINee boys are all supposed to be Romeo and they are searching for their Juliette (Who is played by Krystal from F(X), SHINee's sister group).
As you discovered, Jonghyun is known for his Michael Jackson-like vocals. That's just Jonghyun's classic high note style. Jonghyun is known for his MJ style cry and for sounding a little like Michael when he sings any of SHINee's classic R&B songs. Taemin is the one that dances like MJ, but it's Jonghyun that is the one that sounds like him. During "Juliette" (and "Amigo"), Taemin was still growing into his voice, so he doesn't really have a whole lot of lines in the song, so instead they highlighted more of his dance skills.
"Juliette" came out in 2009 (promoted alongside "Amigo" which was their repackaged album single), so Taemin was a year older than in "Replay" -- he was almost 16 years old here. Minho is 17 years old here. Key is also 17. Onew was 19 and Jonghyun had just turned 19.
As with all of SHINee's MVs, if you really want to see their dancing, you have to check out their performance version MV -- which is designed to highlight the choreography -- or better yet, a live performance. Plus, there is nothing better than SHINee live. Check out their SHINee World Concert V (SWC5) performance of "Juliette" (and "Amigo") from 2016. ruclips.net/video/81qtwuWjYog/видео.html
Fun fact: In 2011, as part of their Japanese debut, they also came out with a Japanese version of "Juliette".
I came to watch ring ding dong😂 ahh…takes me back to my childhood. My cousins stanned that gen. Shinee, big bang, super junior, 2ne1 was always playing
you need to listen to Jonghyun singing Juliette live on his own. his version has a totally different vibe and it's so sultry and beautiful! my favourite.
13 years since I know them... and I became hardcore when Juliette dropped. Obsessed by Lucifer. I remember waiting for Lucifer to drop and then making my mom listen to it. Made my sister go to SM Town in Madison Square Garden in 2012 (she was near) just so she could film some footage of them, especially Taemin (I was a Blinger from Replay, but switched to Taemint around Lucifer era... so 2010). I finally jumped the gun and went all the way to Korea to watch SHINee world concert III, first time. Seen them a few times since then haha.
Ring ding dong I loved... but then I hated with time because it drove me insane... now it just grew on me and I accept it as it is haha.
I wento to the SM Town at Madison Square Garden to see SHINee and my husband took photos and videos of their performances ♥
@@ccofonta I wish I could have been there! I'm still not sure how I convinced my sister to go 😂 yes, WITHOUT me.
Taemin in superM brought me to know SHINee, then ring ding dong and lucifer mv made me fall in love with SHINee
“How am i liking this?” Is the magic of shinee yall. Let us admit we all like RDD more than we anticipated😂
I come cause I miss them..... Shinee
I discovered SHINee in 2010 and became a shawol in 2011.. first comeback was Sherlock in 2012.. so I’ve been a showol for 10 years.. Almost 11. Wow 😂 time flies. Still my one and only ults ❤️
same😊
Jonghyun was definitely way ahead of everyone in the beginning vocally while the others improved a ton throughout the years, not saying that he didn't improve either but he was just that amazing since debut carrying most of the songs in both line distribution and high notes that the other members still haven't been able to catch up to even with him absent on the last couple albums (there's a video of all of their song lines time combined on YT and he's still got a pretty significant lead). I wasn't feeling RDD at first but then it grew on me a lot and I think it's a similar case for many people. I especially like their more rock-like approach of it that they did together with Lucifer, that performance is a must see. Next is the Lucifer era, I guess you could also include Hello (the repackaged title track) and maybe some B sides? My picks would be Obsession - another song that Jjong wrote and Quasimodo a strong and emotional ballad (vocals slay) there's also a very good live performance for it.
So so true.. Jonghyun and key were pretty much seasoned trainee material when they were signed. The others needed training and honestly Onew only truly began to flex his vocals once he had the surgery and after Jjong was gone, prior to that he served primarily as their strong stable scaffold for low and high vocals while Jjong did the front man vocal acrobatics. Pretty much how he led as well, Jjong front and Centre, jinki all around support and strength. Vocal coaches often comment that jinki skill was pretty and pure tone precise control while Jjong's was in soaring roaring emotive performance as was Key I think.
If you get the chance, check out Jojo at SWC4. The audio is much better and as a more recent performance you can see how much they’ve improved
Yesss please!!!
Plus they look so fine in those pastel suits and were very smiley
As I'm not a fan of kpop, but of Dramas, I usually listen to Osts of dramas if I like and I look for the singer or group, the first time I heard them was at BOF with Stand By Me and I really liked the music but all the music in this drama it was amazing and I didn't really knew who SHINee was, but months later my daughter who is a kpop fan and her Bias is Minho showed me a drama with him, to be honest Minho's acting skills at that time didn't catch my attention but I was in love with a particular song *In your eyes* and my daughter told me that the singer was in the same group as the actor and that I already liked their music on BOF, and the first time I looked it up on YT They had so many songs to choose from and I chose Symptoms and fell in love with the first voice, at that time I knew 2 names and a face Onew and Minho and I asked who he was, I remember my daughter asking me if I knew it wasn't Onew and I replied No, both voices are amazing, but very different, and the second voice came out and I said it was Onew she smiled and said yes and his first was Jonghyun, and for me it all started like that, I liked Key's voice in that song too and that was in 2014 in 2 days will be 7 years, II'm not a Baby Shawol or Old Shawol, Today I have all Their albums, both Korean and Japanese and of course the solos as well not all solos, Taemin released to many my poor wallet kkkkk When I visited Korea I was lucky to buy what didn't have yet from Jonghyun including the SM ballads and his book, I am still not a Kpop fan I only Love SHINee I like some singers and 1 or 2 groups because of the Osts but Only SHINee made a difference
Been with kpop since 1997 saw Shinee hit the scene in 2008 best group still I prefer them more then others TXT is a close runner up love there different style to.
Ring Ding Dong is definitely a song that grows on you. It's so cheesy, but such a catchy earworm that once you've heard the chorus a few time in a row, there's no going back, it's stuck forever.
Taemin making really serious faces is because he hated being called cute and being categorized as "the cute maknae" but all the other members agree that doing things like that just made him even cuter 😂
Also I'm glad you saw JoJo! I wish we had a music video for that one!
And I'm forever in love with Key's christmas tree hair in the last performance video you watched, it's adorable
I really hope you give f(x) a listen. F(SHINee) were the sweetest, cutest, most talented group of people.
There's a cute encore stage with f(x) when SHINee won for RDD. Not to mention Lucifer/Nu ABO collab stage and View/4walls supremacy.
21:00 is Get Down with f(x) Luna.
Shawol since debut here. (Former Cassie, I'm sorry Changmin)
I was originally an ELF (SuJu fandom), and when I first listened to SHINee (their Replay debut) I was intrigued, but Love Like Oxygen definitely sealed the deal for me!
In the beginning, Jonghyun clearly was way ahead vocally than the rest. They were actually supposed to debut as a rap group since SM said their voices weren't really that good (yet), but since they didn't really have the rapper swag and flow they debuted as they are. Taemin didn't have solo vocal lines during debut since he was 14 so his voice was still developing, and they said that he didn't sing well enough, his voice may sound similar to Jjong early on since he (and Onew) were the ones mentoring him extra to train his vocals.
Their progression in engancing their talents and skill is what really amazes me! Every album you can definitely see exponential growth!! Their passion is just ❤️
Can I talk to you energy from that move... funny because on that same ep Juliet was the title for, has a song called talk to you!
Krystal from f(x) (SHINee’s sister group) played Juliet! You should definitely check them out if you want to see one of SM’s best acts, and Luna one of the best female vocalists!
LOL i had a good laugh when you mentioned about them emerging from the scaffolding multiple times. it's so true and i've never noticed this till you mentioned it!!!
Long time no see SHINee reaction so thx..waiting for another Taemin marathon ^^
Yess there's soooo much to do with taemin 😀😀
i've been a fan since 2009, and jojo really took me back to the times when i first fell in love with them, having not listened to it for a long time now. almost teared up from the nostalgia
Didn’t like Ring Ding Dong at first but it’s so fun to listen to especially in the car! The boys didn’t like the song either, not their style but you wouldn’t know it from the passion they perform it with. They can sell it! Lol They came to appreciate the song for the impact it had on their careers. It was fun watching your reaction, thanks!
In 2011, I watched a K-drama called Boys Over Flowers. My favorite song from the soundtrack (OST) was Stand By Me, by a group called SHINee. My first time seeing a video was when my daughter showed me a group she was "discovering". It was Lucifer! Hooked for life!
SHINee also did a lot of SNL Korea segments, a reality named "Hello Baby", and some hilarious sketches for SHINee World. Watched them all.
I'm currently 65 years old.
Starting my 10th year with SHINee this year? I think? Juliette was written by Jonghyun, and if I recall rightly was one of the first idol-written songs to win an award? SM is notoriously difficult when it comes to idol written songs being chosen. Seriously, it's a huge thing that Jonghyun wrote so many - actually, that SHINee as a whole have a lot of writing credits. (Jonghyun and Minho have the most in SHINee). Jonghyun & Onew were trying to sound like MJ at the start, a form of homage.
My favorite mic moments are: Onew singing into the wrong end on stage, realizing it and bursting into laughter while running over to show Jonghyun, all while they're supposed to be singing "live", Onew losing his grip on the mic and flipping it into the air, then almost falling while trying to catch it, Taemin failing to grab the mic from Key during Replay, and of course the famous Dream Girl incident where Minho's mic stand falls apart *and no one but a sharp-eyed shawol* noticed.
I just don't like JoJo. It's repetitive and kind of boring.
I LOVE JJONG'S RDD HAIR AND NO ONE CAN STOP ME. LASAGNA JJONG FOREVER~! Kim Kibum, 10 years later: "What does fantastic elastic even mean?!" Minho hated his hair.
Long hair Minho in JoJo performance will forever be my religion. I'm shawol since 2013 and it feels nice to make this journey with you, like i'm 15 again :D
At the beginning i did't like RDD but it definitely grew on me and i'm addicted to this day. I can't imagine my saturday cleaning without RDD
That hair should've got him casted in a sageuk somewhere. Or a battosai cosplay at least.
Ring Ding Dong is that song you think you will cringe when you hear it but then it's a song you cannot even hate. Like whenever I'm down and lonely I blast it on full volume and my day will be better ❤️ One of the most iconic songs in Kpop history
Can't wait to see Lucifer, Dream girl and Why so Serious?
If u watch IU n SHINee show. U will know, SHINee one of the first group who dance and singing it live.. SHINee is so special and improve a lot since then.even back then they're already good.. Because that time not many groups debut and not many singing live.. Only dance
After your SHINee area series you gotta check out some lives!! Especially Juliette with Jjongs long note is outstanding live!
Ring ding dong is the first song I listened from SHINee. I really like it.💎😂❤️
I remember I used to listen to jojo every day when I was in middle school. 😂. So nostalgic
SHINee was the reason i became kinda addicted to Kpop, my first Song was Lucifer so it must be around 2010 or 2011 since it was japanese version of the Song
You should hear Romeo+Juliette that was Taemin's favorite song for a long time. He preformed it solo at 16 and in concert later when he became a soloist and was much older. It was preformed once in 2016 as a group. It is really good. I recommend it.
Hear Alive for a good rap exchange between Key and Minho.
ring ding dong isn't usually something i listen to, even though i typically love all of shinee's music. however, we can't deny the impact it had for their career back when it first came out. and you'd definitely love the live performance they did on their SWC5 concert - they really give so much passion in everything they perform, even though this song is OLD and they're probably sick to the bones of it.
RDD definitely grew on me, especially after I saw their live performance of RDD and the rock version of RDD (it's called "Ring my bell")... Initially the autotune threw me off a lot... Please so watch the 'rock version' of their songs 'amigo', 'Ring Ding Dong', 'lucifer' - they have performed these in their concerts and the rock versions are the ULTIMATE versions!!!!!... I have known and liked Minho in dramas since 7yrs, but got into SHINee boys exactly 3yrs back (November 2018)
Seriously, the rock versions!
I came into kpop around the JoJo era. SHINee was the 3rd group I found but the first fandom I became part of.
Hello, for RDD, I love the song 2nd time I listen to it. For 1st time. I didn't really like it. Hahaha, but watching them singing live that time when not group singing live while dancing. Really.. They mesmerised me a lot.. 💞 Like, it's a whole new level for me.. Since I never knew there will be people who did great dancing n singing like SHINee.. Love jojo and juliette as well.. Juliette is the first song of jonghyun chosen as title song. It really means a lot to him.. Miss him a lot. Shawol since 2009 here. Now I'm 26 years old. Haha♥️ will continue supporting them... 💞
I tell you and it’s my desperate plea YOU HAVE TO WATCH RING DING DONG LIVE… I can never believe how I liked this song. I mean I don’t remember. BUT THIS IS ICONIC. It is iconic and yes the MV is so heavy on auto tune because SM was experimenting with SHINee and that year auto tune was trending, hence when you watch the live you’ll see RDD in a new light. DO WATCH IT PLEASE. or react to it with us! ;)
I discovered SHINee through Taemin in SuperM 100! Love the live performance of Ring Ding Dong so addictive 😍
And it continues!! I feel like i'm reliving my Shawol journey too, so fun!
RDD was actually my first SHINee song, and I remember just laughing at it. I guess SHINee's laughing at me now a shawol of 12 years...
Ring Ding Dong was my ring tone from 2010 until Don't Call Me released 2021. Now Don't Call Me is my ring tone.
"Why do I like this?!"
Yes, this is exactly how i felt the firs time I saw RDD - the first time i saw SHINee ever - and here we are 12 years later. :D
I first discovered them in 2018 when I watched the mv for Ring Ding Dong, which I loved at the time and still do. However, at that time I didn't really dig any deeper into ShiNee. I was still new to kpop, being introduced to BTS by a coworker. So at that time it was all about BTS. That changed in 2020. While watching reaction videos, I discovered Taemin. He very quickly became my ult bias and of course then I had to learn more about ShiNee and SuperM. They've been my ult group for about a year now, and that's not likely to ever change. Btw, ShiNee, in my opinion, has no bad songs. My favorites are: Obsession, A-yo, Who Waits For Love, and Good Evening.
I got into SHINee after watching DOTS with Onew.🥰 I have never regretted it! I love them so much!❤
I love your Shinee reactions so much 🥺🥺🥺 I usually never leave comments but I hope you do more Shinee stuff ❤️ and I hope you have a good day or evening or whatever ☀️
Thank you 😀😀😀
Same😊
And dear can you saw (TriFate-their channel's name) reaction is so so good too
@@sarakimjonghyun4648 nope 🙃 I’ll check it out, thank u for your recommendation ❤️
@@yulduzoooo yessss
You're welcome😊
knew them from d very beginning...2008...was a taemint from the very start...knew he was going to be something.:))
i love all the songs cos its SHINee...they were very entertaining...ring ding dong and jojo reminds me of the show the boys did at that time...SHINee Hello Baby...that was fun.
shawol here🤗 thank youuuuuuu
I’ve know them since their debut era, *old shawol Lol 😂
And Juliette is the first and last song I’ve ever tried to dance to, OMG that’s when I realized that dancing is not my world, better to just enjoy their performances.. hahaha
Hahahaha😂
It was 2007 when I got into SHINee [and girls generation] so I've been here a long time, but I had a 6 year hiatus so I missed /a lot/.
I've been with SHINee since SM dropped their profiles online with literally no warning or hype about 2 days before their debut. 😅 At the time Dong Bang Shin Ki were THE K-pop group, and everyone was excited for a new 5 member SM boy group, but taken back by how they were all absolute babies and that was pretty much all we knew about them. When Replay dropped and was so good (and then when they sang live on music shows, that just didn't happen at the time!) K-fandom was SHOOK. Honestly, watching them all grow up but especially Taemin and Minho has been such a ride.
Reaction to Ring Ding Dong was very similar to yours. Even at the time when autotune was big, everyone was like, "but why autotune SHINee? They don't need it." 🤣 And day 1 everyone was like wtf are these lyrics, day 2 everyone was screaming, "SO FANTASTIC, ELASTIC," it was a total meme hahahahaha.
I'm right there with you. I have been a Kpop fan since 2006. I was also following TVXQ and Super Junior at the time and remember when SM surprised us with the announcement of their new boy group SHINee. I was excited for a new group from SM, but they seemed so young at the time. Unlike the other groups that SM had debuted prior to that. But I am so glad I started following them from the very beginning because there really was or is nothing like SHINee out there and even after more than 13 years they continue to stay just as fresh and new as they were from day one. :D
@@milindawilson9175 It's wild to think back to SHINee's debut and how hard it was for international fans, peering at those videos that some kind soul had ripped off TV and were about 4 pixels (or god forbid even recorded the TV with their camera). 🤣🤣 Versus now, when you can hardly go on the internet without tripping over a K-Pop group and it's only as hard as getting on your favs Insta to get new content (Key on social media is honestly such a gift). I stumbled across K-Pop back in the day because a torrent I'd downloaded had snuck BoA's newly released 'Listen to Your Heart' album into it, and from there I was able to go BoA to TRAX to Shinhwa, Rain, and eventually DBSK and SuJu by digging through torrents and LiveJournal posts. Thank god new fans can just go to RUclips these days hahahahaha.
@@raerae734 I know, I remember all those videos where people recorded the TV show while they watched with their video camera and you could hear their family in the background the whole time. LOL I got into Kpop after a friend showed me a K-drama during my last year of college and it kind of just snowballed from there. I am so thankful for streaming sites like Netflix where you can watch all kinds of K content and you don't have to feel like you're surfing on the black market looking for someone's grainy video of a TV show and hoping you can find the whole episode and are able to see and hear it well enough to follow what's happening. K fans today are so lucky to have subs. I would often watch things without subs and just grasp bits and piece of what was happening and was happy just to get that much. It always makes me laugh when people get upset that a video doesn't have subs. They are just way too spoiled LOL.
@@milindawilson9175
> It always makes me laugh when people get upset that a video doesn't have subs.
LMFAO, this! I'm like, "Guuuuurl, there were *whole communitites* devoted to fansubbing shitty quality MVs and variety shows back in the day that have now been made extinct, and you are sad about unsubbed videos in 4K? Or waiting 24 hours for subs? THE STRUGGLE WAS REAL AND YOU WILL NEVER KNOW, I WALKED BAREFOOT UPHILL IN THE SNOW BOTH WAYS FOR K-POP BACK IN THE DAY. " 🤣🤣🤣
@@raerae734 LOL preach!!!! If only I could like your comment 500 more times. HAHAHA
Never heard Jojo before this but that chorus sounds like something straight out of Eurovision!
I have been officially following SHINee since 2012 so it's been a fun ride 😁 They've experimented with a lot of musical genres over the years and I find that aspect of their music to be the most enjoyable. I do love their early era stuff a lot just as much as I love their current stuff. The thing for me is that SHINee has consistently remained true to themselves while still putting out music to wow the masses. I'll ALWAYS love them 💜💜💜
Sis!! Onew's song with Punch called "Way" is out now and daammnn get your tissues ready. T_T
The lyrics and the blend of their voices are just woooh... Chills!
I can't wait for you to check it out!
jojo is still top 10 SHINee songs ever
Juliette was the 1st song Jonghyun wrote and from then he wrote about 75 songs
Things I picked up.... Eating rameyon as late night snack 😂, sheet face masks, saying 'you did a grate job / you work hard' when leaving work. ( I personally like the last one the most
Ring ding dong live without auto tune sounds a lot better. I think RDD was in the beginning of autotune era where not many other groups or even none of any groups used auto tune that time. If I’m not mistaken
RDD comments:
Yeah, autotube is weird
There is a car as they are going somewhere? I think to get to that rood they entered 5 times
Taemin is 15. Let him live his life
2008 - colorful jeans and noona you are so oretty
2009 - latex and darker concepts
I love Minho's hair in RDD...
RDD is song that grow on you, it really does
I love "Ring Ding Dong". It is simply impossible not to love her !!!
Stanned Taemin first in October 2020, during Criminal Era. Then dived into his group SHINee a month after. I am a 1-year old SHAWOL.
Since 2009 I thought of Ring Ding Dong as a weird song, but the members admit that song helped them A LOT like everyone knew them after Ring Ding Dong. And still unsure especially the cola cola part 😂 But of course the live version redeemed it since we can hear their voices without all the autotunes. And judging by how it's trending in TikTok even in 2021, there's no escaping it 😂
I've been a shawol since 2008 lol they were my official intro to kpop
Also i feel like in the first album taemins voice was so autotuned he sounded like jjong... i had a hard time back then distinguishing their voices
no stop i never noticed how many times they came through the scaffolding 🤣🤣
Once you see you can't unsee
i`ve been stanning SHINEE since Lucifer era (2010) and they immediately became my #1 ❤ for all these yaers i`ve known so many kpop male groups, but none of them could top SHINEE ❤
Soy Shawol desde el 2014 que fue cuando los descubrí. Me encanta Ring Ding Dong, me pone de buen humor.
Mi Dino siempre fue el centro en SHINee, todavía lo es 😇.
Gracias por reaccionar a ellos una vez más :)
It was one of those Shinee videos that made me still want to say Key, Minho & Taemin are bias wrecking me. It was probably when I first saw Ring Ding Dong. RIP Jonghyun
Shinee started a trend of colorful skinny jeans in Korea. They were always trend makers and still are
That leg move dance Yetti and Ella loved so much in DCM has been popping up in different mutations already
OMG Yetti this is probably one the most fun reaction videos I've seen in a long time. Thank you for the laugh. This came out in 2009, but everything from the era looks like in the 90s 😂 RDD definitely one of the songs that grew on me
Taemin said that he always smile when singing their songs before even tho its a break-up or sad song because he didn’t understand the lyrics😆
RDD Live is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.. also
RING DING DONG ROCL VERSION IS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! Deym fave!
Ring Ding Dong era was my first time listen to SHINee. It sounded a little bit strange now (also their hair style lol), but it was very cool at that time and made me listen to the full album and love their songs.
By the way, JOJO and Romeo+Juliet were my all time favorite SHINee’s b-sides.
Newer gen stans might not like RDD, but this song united different fandoms. Even non shawols chanted louder than shawols when this played. The power RDD holds 😂
I think you're still a couple of albums away but I hope you'll include "Your Number", which is a Japanese release, in your journey. The song is such a bop. Such a shame they did not release the Korean version.
To this day I still have no idea what the lyrics to Ring Ding Dong are. The melody, autotune, hair and catchy chorus are too hypnotizing and I've just accepted that I'll never know 😅
Hahaha sooo true I didn't think about that
This vid is a bit old now but I still wanted to share. ☺️
A friend first showed me SHINee in my 2nd year of HS in 2011.
Technically B1A4's debut was the 1st Kpop vid/song I ever heard(I watched it over the shoulder of tht same friend in class, then made her tell me who they were 😂), but SHINee was a close second steadily became the main group I cared about.
The longer I've been a Shawol, the more the fandom became one of the safest and friendliest fandoms I've ever been a part of. 💖😊
Oh god how much I loved JoJo ❤️
For next vid. I recommend to u Stand By me (ost), SHINee actually did many osts, before like stand by me, countdown, to the beautiful u, etc etc... 💞 So next song Stand By me, Lucifer, Hello, Sherlock, Dream Girl, Why so serious, Everybody and if can, pls react to Japanese song too, since they debut in jpn in 2011, SHINee has many good songs in jpnese. Like I'm with you, colour of season, keeping love again, kiss kiss kiss, 1000years waiting by ur side, kimi no seide, lucky star, your number, 321,the world where u exist, diamond sky, get the treasure, winter wonderland, etc etc,, many jpnese songs which are all great,
Yayyyy, more Shinee content, girl you give me life with your Shinee reactions, I love seeing people discover these gems, there's still so much to discover, you still have a long way to go, but we'll be there with you! 👍👊💕
Thanks for joining
I knew about them since their debut because of my little sister, but gladly hopped on the shinee train mid-Lucifer promos.... So I've been a shawol since summer of 2010! :)
Thank you so much for doing these reactions of a great group of guys!
LOL, they had cars for some reason in many MVs from that time :) I guess we shouldn't ask why, because only answer would be: because they are cool :)
Loool
The way I used to vibe to ringdingdong and shake my hip automaticallly 🤣
Well great, now RDD is going to stay embedded in my brain for the next couple of days 😂

A second time thanks for this series. I am coming to shinee late in this era. TVXQ break aprat and i was so sad that some one recommended Shinee to me. It was okay for me at this time. RDD was not so mine at first. I alway said TVXQ do that better and this. 2010 Luficer came out. I watch the mv so that i could say i give them a chance and was caught immediately (the Dance
I discovered SHINee in 2009 due to the Boys Over Flowers OST Stand By Me. Became a shawol that year as well due to Ring Ding Dong lol!
Yes, I love Ring Ding Dong from the start. Jonghyun's iconic Baby at the start got me.. and the choreo. Plus this was the song during their show Hello Baby that's why I really love it. And when I saw the live performance from SHINee World 5 (RDD + Lucifer remix which I hope you'll watch too) i was really blown away. But for new people just discovering SHINee I really wouldn't suggest RDD as their first song to listen to as it's not something most people would like immediately given the autotune.
Btw - Juliette was written by Jonghyun. I also like Jojo, i found them so cute while performing it in their SHINee World 4 concert.
Hi Soul, I think that it is time that reactions to all these songs live. these men are spectacular in live!!!!!!!!
when SHINee was really big in my country back in 2009, RDD and lucifer were all the rage but i couldn't get into them because i didn't like how RDD and lucifer sounded lol. it was only after my sister forced me to watch Hello Baby that i fell for their personalities and charm, and subsequently got sucked into their music thereafter.
For RRD, at first listen (Shinee playlist) I noted it as interesting. Heard it again in a Taemin/Shinee related video and my thought was 'I have to listen to it again". As I'm more into dance/disco/edm music I love RRD and Lucifer.

You think that’s difficult to see Taemin as a boy but before, it was a shook to see Taemin shirtless in « Everybody » we always saw him as a baby 🤣
Shinee world taemin❤❤😍😍😍
I'm glad you still liked it despite the electronic sound! It definitely was part of the era, but I think they managed it pretty well. It just gets stuck in your head. Definitely was one that grew on me over time. Hopefully you like some of the upcoming songs just the same, since we aren't quite out of the electronic genre yet. Lucifer is one of my absolute favorites, so I hope you enjoy!
I still remember loving RDD at first view/listen and a few days later got a big screen monitor to view them in 1080p for the first time! 😅 Ahhh the joy they bring! Jojo took a bit more listens before I got into it. Juliette sounded fresh. Get down was something I didn't expect to like. I hated rap music back then coz I find it hard to understand because they mouth the words too fast. But with Shinee and not understanding Korean made it easy to just enjoy the music and ignore the lyrics. 😆. About Jonghyun's vocals, he's ahead of his time definitely. I remember him being so good that when he was unwell to perform live, SM put Yesung from Super Junior to cover his part. Man, I was so mad about it. I'd rather Onew or Key take over, than a member from another group to do it. It was such an insult, I feel. Don't get me wrong, Yesung is my bias in SuJu. Anyway, glad that all members are vocalists in their own right now. They've grown a lot as artists.
HAHA yes we're falling in love with rdd XD lucifer is actually my first shinee's song but rdd make me become a shawol
I’ve been a fan since 2016 so I’m not a new shawol nor an old shawol but they rlly helped me get into kpop:)))
