The female vocalist is the queen of Kpop - Boa. No altering of her voice necessary. Now, Taemin was never in Hell in "Criminal". According to Taemin, in an interview, he was in the deepest, darkest depths of his budding new ego -- the "victim" of Stockholm syndrome with his present ego being the "Criminal". Taemin said that this portion of his album, Act 2, was based upon Plato's Theory of Forms. While I understand the concept of this philosophical theory, my 18 YO daughter expresses it in writing better than I could, so here is how she explained it: "I think Taemin is chasing after the idea of "Taemin." Just like Plato's world of forms, there is an intrinsic idea of the "identity" of "Taemin." Taemin is chasing after this identity to reach higher levels of "Taemin-ness." Just as we have an idea of a chair, (a throne is considered a type of chair because it has "chairness"), so Taemin has the idea of "Taemin-ness" As Taemin tries to go further in his discovery he realizes that it is impossible to reach true "Taemin-ness" because it's perfect, and perfection is impossible for the flawed human to reach. Only a higher power made the concept of a "chair" or the concept of "Taemin" and only perfection is able to realize them." In other words, Taemin, through this new album, has stepped up a level into a newer and better "Ego" by abandoning and leaving his former "Ego" behind--the Ego who thought he was the messiah or could bring forth the messiah (perfect Taemin) through sheer will alone. We see the struggle between his dark former self trying to hang on and the newly emerging, brighter Ego breaking free into the light through the lyrics, images (light and dark), and dancing. "The shadow is holding the night and getting darker"…..but…."Inside my heart under, under, under, beautiful silhouettes….sweet voices….you are my messiah" leading him into the light and a new level of Ego and the idea of a new Messiah; a higher power outside of himself. The Hebrew word "Mashiach"(Messiah) means "one anointed with oil". In the New Testament, Jesus is the Messiah, the one anointed with oil and perfect a higher power, as illustrated in Plato's forms. As a Catholic, this fits in perfectly with Taemin's philosophical worldview. He's searching for the Taemin that God meant him to be -- Perfect Taemin. However, his old Ego thinks he can do this on his own. That is his struggle -- pride and arrogance, or let go and let God lead. Intuitively he knows that perfection is "beyond the limit of realization" and he grasps for "your shadow I finally found" and "throw myself into the ideal," he understands that "all the colored emotions inside become the unlimited range." Despite knowing and feeling there is perfection within himself, he can't access it alone and this inability to bring it forth through force keeps driving him but "The brightest presence in my world, the absolute value, you, my idea, you are killing me." Why? Because he can never reach the perfect fulfillment of Taemin. "The dangerous dream that swallowed me is proven by You." This "idea" that he can be perfect through his own effort and merit has been "killing him softly." "On the night I cut you out from my heart (the old Ego) finally I open my eyes." At the end of the video he's finally shaken free of the old and put on the new. This is all just speculation on my part garnered from what Taemin has said and being Christian myself, although not of the Catholic denomination. I actually don't subscribe to any particular denomination as they force limits and man-made doctrines that Christ never intended from my point of view.
Thank you for your sharing! As a Christian myself, I was still processing what Taemin had outputted from this MV and the entire Act production. Your interpretation clarified a lot from this perspective. The concept between dark and bright, God’s perfection and human’s flaws... thanks sooo much, I learnt a lot
@@yukijaiful Glad you enjoyed it. Have you watched his MV for "Want"? It's actually much deeper than most people realize. In the MV/Song, Taemin's basically retelling the story of Genesis 3 with a sprinkling of the salvation message at the end. If you would like the breakdown of that one, let me know how I can get it to you.
Taemin said idea is based on Plato's theory or sth like that and he pronounces idea and messiah the way you'd do it in greek (or as close as he can). Idea is actually originally a greek word.
Taemin and all of SHINee have creative freedom in SM which means basically that the decisions on their music/ mv/ composition/ choreo etc comes all down to them so this actually was Taemin's idea and he explained to us that he wanted to represent Plato's Theory of forms, which is why IDEA is pronounce in Greek and not english or korean c:
HE’S SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for your reaction!!!!! I also appreciate the aesthetics so much!!! So much goodness to look at!!! And the video suits the so SO WELL
Everyone keeps saying that Taemin is the korean MJ but I've always thought that he has more Gaga vibes and I'm glad you thought of her as well, a collab would be legendary!
Yess!!! I'm under ground thanks to Taemin. React to some SHINee moments compilation on Friday please. They will be finally back 🤗❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ my SHINee boys will be back!!! And both of my five boys BIRTHDAY is near, so near. SHINee is BACK BACK BACK BAKC BACK BACK!!!!!
WELL THAT IS IF HE WANTS TO DO IT NOW,HE CAN WAIT UNTIL HE IS 30,IS A NEW LAW,HE IS 28,HE MIGHT WAIT TO PROMOTE AGAIN NEW MUSIC WITH SHINee, SO THEY CAN MAKE A WORLD TOUR IN THAT TIME,IF COVID IS CONTROLLED WICH I DOUBT,BUT CAN BE ONLINE,LIKE OTHERS.
Its a new album. Hes doing a series of albums. Criminal was part of Act 1 of Never gonna dance again. Idea is the title track of Act2 Never gonna dance again. Both albums are amazing with 7 and 8 songs in them respectively
💜💎💜TAEMIN OMG IDEA -"killing me softly"-female voice BoA 💜💎💜 Taemin's style is so good that it is breathtaking💜💎💜It's a masterpiece! I absolutely love it!!!💗💗💗Taemin deserves his own genre. Nobody does it like him. Taeminpop. Such a one of a kind artist💜💎💜Taemin said that this portion of his album was based upon Plato's Theory of Forms.
You were right at the end, Taemin said in the video he is somwhere in between hell and heaven. Also he is kinda protraying his old self and his new self. He said this is related to Plato's theory of Forms where he looks for his "identity", that's why IDEA is pronounced in that way (greek). Therefore, in the video he is in this between where he can portray his ideal self/identity/ego. His brain is so big, and he comes with the best concepts. In my opinion that's what makes him so unique.
Wait! You guys haven't react or watched to Taemin "Move"!? This song is iconic, literally cover by every kpop idol even Korean actors! Please react to it! - Want, Famous, and Goodbye too
Amo ver sus reacciones, tanto que me he visto ya TODOS sus videos desde que comenzaron, si pudieran reaccionar a una canción con 2 vocales hermosos sería hermoso, no se arrepentirán. "Still love you - Lee Hong ki ft. Yoo Hwe Seung" Yoo Hwe Seung es parte de la banda N.Flying ♡♡♡♡♡
I think he is kind of talking about his development or evolution as an artist, and that his music and/or MVs are created from his ideas. I think he is explaining in the music video that it is made from ideas in his mind, and at the end when he says "Finally I open my eyes", all the characters of the MV fall dead around him because they no longer exist. I think the messiah, heaven, and hell references may have to do with the fact that he is Roman Catholic.
I’m sure everyone has their own views on this; here’s mine 🤯 I dont even know where to begin with my thoughts, so much going on in the MV opens up of him meeting with himself in jail, so many scene changes, dooming us by having BOA saying “Killing Me Softly” 👻 and Don’t even get me started on their fashion like he giving us Crop Top Taemin including covering his TATTOO with a bandage 👀 It seems like a continuous of his ACT 1: “Criminal” album after he gets caught and bails out then shows up in a famous designers’ casino cafè (Sokcho City) in the meantime shown singing & dancing in heaven and hell (Angel & Demon) probably reference of being reborn and I wont be surprised if Koharu Sugawara had a hand in the choreography. Also, the arm move he does reminds me so much of his vibrating arm move he did in “FAMOUS” but it’s straight line in this MV. THIS ISNT KPOP, ITS T-POP (Taemin Pop) #TAEMIN_IDEA #SHINee #SUPERM After so long of waiting which felt like forever our guys SHINee are finally back; ONEW KEY AND MINHO, OUR BOY TAEMIN IS BACK TO BEING THE ABORABLE MAKNAE AMONG HIS HYUNGS 😁
OLD? MAYBE YOU ARE OLD,BECAUSE TAEMIN IS THE BEST SOLO PERFORMER OF MAMA AWARDS,IF HE WERE OLD,NO ONE WOULD REACT TO HIM,DON'T BE STUPID,OHHH I SEE,IN YOUR PROFILE PIC EVERYONE CAN SEE YOUR BITTERNESS,BUT THAT WONT MAKE TAEMIN LOSE ANY SLEEP,EVERYONE LOVES HIM,BTW YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT ABOUT VIDEO MAKING,WHERE DID YOU SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS BEFORE?N-E-V-E-R!

This is not SM. This is TAEMIN's idea and TAEMIN alone.
The female voice in the background was BoA she's a well respected soloist under SM, she debuted in 2000 when she was only 13.
the queen !
@@zeyphr1362 because it's just one line you can't be feature when you say one line over and over
OMG i did not know it was her! I wonder what she is doing these days?
@@zerenityzerene4410 drinking her wine i guess and watching the younger générations i guess.
@@sirdromos2769 lol, I'm sure she has done that at some point
the female voice in the song is actually BoA, another artist under SM entertainment. It was like a lil mini feature haha
No way I didn't know that
How did you know that was boa?
@@donlee4105 there was article talking about how her vocals would be on the track
@@donlee4105 also Taemin mentions it on a video with Haechan and Ten on SHINee’s channel
