I practice dance myself, I do see from his movements how much hard work he has put there to have this level of fluidity yet looks so effortless... Great discover for us! Taemin is indeed a great artist. Thanks for your comment!
I love Move, it’s truly iconic and thanks to this song Taemin gained a status of a legend in Kpop industry. He’s an amazing dancer and overall an incredible, captivating artist. The woman you saw dancing with him is Koharu Sugawara - Taemin’s friend and creator of this choreography. I really hope you’ll check out Want, Criminal and Guilty - other amazing Taemin songs. Each one is different and fascinating and he shines in each one of them.
The look and feel for "Move" is very specific, it's supposed to be androgynous and gender neutral. Early in his career when Taemin was growing up in SHINee he was known for his feminine look. The industry thought it was novel and cute to play up his feminine features. Being recognized for his delicate image, ended up giving him a real complex about the fact that people never saw him as a masculine man. It took him a long time to accept that he was known for his looks and to come to terms with the fact that everyone thought of him as a "pretty boy," etc. So, at this point in his career as a 24-year-old (He is 31 now) he was trying to make a statement about how he has now come to terms with just being himself and not caring what people think. Dancing is art and movement has no gender. "Move" is his title track on his 2nd Korean solo album, which was released in 2017. He debuted as a solo artist in 2014. There are 3 versions of his "Move" MV. Version #1 is the regular MV version, which you watched. Version #2 is his solo performance version that just highlights his dancing. Version #3 is the duo version, which focuses on the choreographer and him dancing together. Fun fact: The blue color you see throughout this MV is supposed to represent the cool, chill vibe of this song, but pearl aqua also is SHINee's fan color, so you will see aqua/blue/green shades with most everything to do with SHINee as a way to represent their connection as a group and their connection to their fans, etc. And just so you know, those background vocals aren't Taemin's. They actually chose to leave the songwriters' vocals in the song from when they recorded the guide track. I have seen interviews with Adien Lewis, one of the original songwriters and he was shocked to hear his voice still in the song. Usually when a Kpop company gets a song from a songwriter, especially a foreign songwriting team, they will translate it into Korean and record all the vocals using the artists' vocals or other Korean artists, etc. Therefore, it's very rare that a songwriter would have their original vocals in a Kpop song, however, this was one of the few times where SM didn't rerecord or change everything. If you're interested, here is a short clip of an interview with Adien Lewis talking about "Move", ruclips.net/video/hTxbaiWyrmA/видео.html. "Move" features all female dancers because the whole point of the song and dance is supposed to be about crossing gender boundaries and how just because you are male doesn't mean your dance has to be hyper masculine. Taemin uses what is traditionally considered more feminine dance moves to show how you can merge both feminine and masculine styles together to create something that can't be singled out as one gender or the other. This dance allowed a more mainstream audience to start to embrace less traditional gender roles within Kpop. "Move" is one of Taemin's most famous choreographies and it has become the dance he is most recognized for.This dance has inspired what is known as the "Move disease," and it is said that the dance is so catchy that you can't help but try to imitate it. There are literally hundreds of videos online of people attempting cover dances to this song. (It is on the level of Beyonce's "Single Ladies" dance and some of the most famous TiK Tok dance challenges.) However, no matter how good of a dancer they are, it is quickly apparent that there is just something about the way Taemin moves that can't be duplicated. Taemin is Taemin and there is no one else like him. The dance is never as sharp or precise as the way Taemin does it. That is why he is hands down considered one of the top two BEST dancers in the industry. This choreography is actually considered by professional dancers to be one of the most difficult dances to pull off because of the amount of control you have to have and the intricate movements. They say that if Taemin's dances look easy then that means they are extremely difficult and if they look difficult then they are almost impossible to pull off unless you are Taemin. There's a reason why EVERYONE looks up to him, even world-famous dancers. As Taemin has said numerous times in interviews and on variety shows, the key point in "Move's" choreography is literally supposed to be to stare into the camera like you are trying to seduce the person who is watching. So, you are right, that is exactly what Taemin is doing. The female dancer who is the featured dancer dancing with Taemin in the MV wasn't just any dancer, she is the choreographer who choreographed "Move". Her name is Sugawara Koharu and she is a Japanese choreographer who has choreographed dances for several Kpop groups, as well as American artists. She has worked with Taemin a lot over the years and she is the one that also choreographed Taemin's dance for his songs "Want," "Flame of Love" and "Sayonara Hitori" and helped choreograph Taemin and her performance on the competition program Hit the Stage -- "Devil" performance, etc., and she was one of 3 or 4 choreographers who helped choreograph Taemin's "Criminal." Taemin and Sugawara are really good friends. She was also the choreographer for SHINee's song "Good Evening," among others. She loves working with Taemin because they are a lot alike, and that is one of the reasons why she has been featured in several of Taemin's projects. Plus, Taemin and all the members of SHINee, are also one of the most famous artists in Japan and they all speak fluent Japanese, so they have no problem communicating through dance or language. :D You should now check out a live performance, as well as his dance practice video, so you can really see why this song is so iconic and discover how it literally changed the Kpop industry. Taemin's choreography is very much influenced by him. Although he has input in almost everything he does, he has choreographers that come up with the choreography for most of his dances and he then infuses it with his own ideas and style and makes it uniquely his. The way Taemin dances is just the way he moves. His movements are effortless. If you watch Taemin dance a lot, you will see that no matter who choreographs the dance, it will always be very Taemin-like. Many choreographers who have worked with him over the years have said that, with Taemin you can't help but allow him to move in whatever way his body takes him. Taemin is art in every sense of the word. :D Taemin's style of dance can't be defined. As he has said, he has worked his entire career to create a style of dance that is unlike anything in the Kpop industry. And I would argue that that now extends to the entire industry of dance. Taemin started out as a self-taught popper and locker without any dance training, and, even then, as a trainee it was clear his skills as a dancer went far beyond the average dancer. Over the years he has infused those popping and locking skills into his now more contemporary style of dance. But, when it comes to dancing, he can do it all and there is no one better at it than him. Taemin has had a solo career for more than 10 years and he has been a member of SHINee for more than 16 years. He has at least 12 solo albums and SHINee currently has 14 full length albums, plus dozens of mini albums, singles, repackaged albums, etc. And he is also a member of SuperM, which debuted in 2019. So, you won't run out of Taemin content to watch for a very long time. ;p Taemin has even held several solo concerts, as well as more than 100 concerts as a member of SHINee and a world tour as a member of SuperM.
Your response to Taemin was the same as mine. The EYES, the movement of his body, and the immediate impulse to watch him again. Thank you for your reaction.
Taemin is amazing. Another one of his MV is my favorite, Advice. Oh and also Guilty. His movements.. i just can't describe in words. Definitely worth the watch. Thanks for reacting to Taemin.❤
Thank you for checking out Taemin, he is a phenomenal artist, and is widely considered to be the best dancer in k-pop. He debuted with his group SHINee in 2008 when he was only 14 and debuted as a soloist (alongside his group work) in 2014, exactly 10 years ago (it's his 10th anniversary this month). Tamin trencends k-pop, his music is referred to often as T-pop or Tae-pop, he is his own genre and all of his work is amazing, both Korean and Japanese releases. He is actually releasing a new mini album on the 19th of this month, I HIGHLY recommend checking out the rest of his work and will also recommend watching the dance practice for each song along with the MV, the way he moves is very unique.
@@EcoArtLounge what I've mentioned is just the very tip of the iceberg, Taemin is amazing and you have so much to discover about him. he is both a one in a century artist and an amazing human being, two things that don't usually go together (All of SHINee are actually considered to be the nicest group in kpop, anyone who ever met them can't help but rave about how incredibly NICE they are). he loves putting his faith as well as philosophies from around the world into his work and trying new things while still maintaining his own sound. If you have any questions I'll be happy to help!
What a wonderful discovery for you! Taemin is an Artist who has his own unique style of movement: fluid yet precise, delicate yet strong, always in perfect control of his body, blending masculine and feminine movements into his dances. His solid vision of who he is and what he wants to do artistically as a singer, dancer, and performer in turn inspires other artists. Please continue to explore his work; you will be so happy you did! First, try watching the dance practice for Move: ruclips.net/video/_cAskH1PtmQ/видео.htmlsi=Jw1WWilKSO-216yl Some of his other songs with exquisite choreography: -The dance version of Flame of Love, ruclips.net/video/TjuDAXT4kgs/видео.htmlsi=f-DcHYAq4fEex4QI -Budokan concert version of Door: ruclips.net/video/zs-lAx1tQMI/видео.htmlsi=CXt0jWABrSIFi4Dn -Just me and You: ruclips.net/video/JgKakyh6nZA/видео.htmlsi=ciAlCWmqyrAhFOZg This is just a taste; Enjoy!
