I clicked on this knowing I'll cry but I'm stupid
It's always okay to cry. Hang in there. You are doing your best and you are always enough.
Idk about you but for me it was a healing cry. Going for healing cries isn't stupid but a very wise thing to do. We need to process this.
@@sophienugre4161 This reminds me of a quote by Jonghyun actually:
"When your tears are falling, just let them shed. I wish you'll think of it as that weight inside your heart is getting out of your body. Drop by drop."
@@sophienugre4161 Same for me, it feels healing to cry but the wound is still very fresh. But I do like that people bring up his art and make it live on, and just watching videoes of him and hearing his music, cause even if it makes me break down in tears it also reminds me of his talent and artistry , and it slowly but surely heals the wound.
me too, I miss him so fucking much and today is even his bday
I'm grateful that people haven't forgotten Jonghyun as the soft hearted vocalist that Shawols loved dearly, we'll see you again, sweetheart 💐
It’s sad when you realize he never got that spring. Lets hope that if there is a after life he got that spring that he sung about.
comments like these are so unnecessary. you don't have to make things MORE sad for his death, it's sad enough.
@@toodleloos ummm you do know this was like a year ago. I was really just appreciating the music that he created in fact I even forgot I made this comment sorry if it bothered you I never meant for that to happened. I also never meant for it to be sad more of a happy thought. Because don’t we all want that kinda spring especially in the winter that we had this year?
@@toodleloos people are allowed to grieve
yeah ! :/
That's kind of like the message of the song, I feel like he is telling us we'll make it through the winter (of losing him) and eventually to spring, but don't be sad for him because somehow he also found his spring in the end. Something like that, I feel it's supposed to be a comforting message, even if it feels so sad for us.
everyone in Korea can acknowledge that he was a genius musician
and abroad too
🌏🌎🌍
"We all have our own little winters that we're gonna get through. But the snow thaws and the sun comes out, and it gets warmer.
It happens. And just because it becomes spring doesn't mean that winter doesn't come back. But it's really important to realize that every single day is another day forward and you never have to do today again. So just keep on going."
You made me cry, you made me smile. This made my day. Thank you. 💙
I really did need to hear that today. Such a lovely quote.
That was really beautiful, I loved his message 💕
"his undying wish was that he wanted other people to make it through their winter"
This has always been my understanding of this song. I believe he knew how his story would play out and he left this song with us to say just that. You'll get thru it, and it might seem like I didn't get my spring but just know I did too somehow. It's hope and comfort all in one, and that's what makes the song so equally comforting and painful to listen to.
Yes, that's what I think as well, and the "Always be with you" in Shinin' hits hard too.
As you said, I also think he knew and he left a comforting message for us.
Such a talented man with such a pure heart, what a gift he is to the world!
You did well Jjong!
It's been so long since I listened to "before our spring". It's impossible to stop the tears.
I don't know if the reactors knew that for Before Our Spring MV they used a lot of footage from Jonghyun 's final Concert that was held days before he left us . I can't help but see the sadness in his eyes. In one clip , it almost felt like his eyes were saying goodbye.
Sorry for mentioning something so sad on his bday video
When some of the reactors talked about Jong in the present tense it got to me so much. I heard the word IS like it was sticking out and every time I heard it I was reminded that he's gone. idk, it's weird that that particular thing was what got to me. And what Henry said made me cry like a baby.
Thank you for doing this. I'm so glad people are still appreciating his art and what he left behind and that we're still talking about him.
It’s really selfish of me but I get so offended when people use past tense when they talk about jh
happy birthday to the best angel ever :(
I personally love the "is" so much
Like not "was"
He is still here he is not gone
If we still listen to his music, he will never go
It’s still so painful to listen to that song, let alone watch the MV. But thank you so much for reacting.
till now
Yeah 😢
till now but his voice will forever be so inviting it's impossible to resist
Till now 💔
The clips where he's wearing a white suit were from his last Inspired concert and some of the clips were from the last show he did, almost a week before he died, where he looked around the audience with tears in his eyes, as if he wanted to remember what he was seeing for the last time.😭
In many Eastern cultures, however, white is symbolically linked to death and sadness. It's often a color used in funerals and other mourning rituals.
It might also be connected because it was winter, hope he didnt suffer enough and he should be celebrated for the things that he did.
@@notwerkinginthishouse8634 not in Korea though. I believe that's the case in India.
Thank you for releasing this on Jonghyun's birthday. This is beautiful.
I don’t if I can get through the before our spring reaction in class without crying
Beautiful. I really like how you guys didn't hang onto just the circumstances and looked at it just as you would if it was sung by any other artist. And well, it really gets frustrating even a year later when he gets praised and called perfect and isn't here to hear it. It's like he felt the perfection and just went "There. My work here is done."
THEY MUST LISTEN "Y SI FURERA ELLA" BY JONGHYUN WITH LYRICS, PLEASE!
aborcja radiomaryja yes it’s soooo good!!
PLEASE
YESSS
@reacktotheK
aborcja radiomaryja YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
"Before our spring" is one of the most heartbreaking and beautiful songs to ever be made. Jonghyun is such a talanted, kind and one of a kind soul, I miss him everyday but I think he would want us to be happy and listening to his music makes me feel so alive and like I am not alone, like our shining star is watching over all of us. I'm a bit of an emotional mess after watching this but I really appreciate the reaction!
I'm disappointed in myself for never listening to his music while he was still alive.
Same. I didn't know who he was until then, wish I had discovered this beautiful soul, that's how destiny is.
me too, i joined kpop like the day he was gone so I knew him the day after it, and it hit my like a train. all I know is I literally fell depressed? idek what I had, but yeah since then I developed panic attacks and in winter depression comes back, but at the same time I know I love him so much so I have nothing to blame to him
M W same 🥺
Same.
Same 😭
한참이 걸려도 그대 반드시 행복해지세요
참.. 울컥하네요....ㅜㅜ
Once in a while, I'll come back to this video reactions. 3 years, and I'm still crying with you guys when the last chorus of Jonghyun afraid that he might give his sadness to us appears. I still can't make myself stop crying whenever watching that part.
여긴 봄이 왔어 종현아. 네가 있는 그 곳은 봄이 왔니? 꼭 봄이 와서 행복 가득하게 잘 지내고 있었으면 좋겠다. 수 많은 사람들이 너의 음악을 듣고 행복해하고 즐거워하고 좋아하는거 다 보고있지? 이런 좋은 음악 듣게해줘서 너무너무 고마워. 참 많이 보고싶어 김종현.
종현이의 노래를 리액션해줘서 고마워요. 봄이오기전에 라는곡을 오늘 처음들었어요. 혼자서 종현이의 목소리를 듣는게 너무슬프고 자신이없었는데. 여러분과 함께라서 종현이의 아름다운 목소리를 느낄수가 있었어요. 지금 너무 슬프고 눈물이나지만 이렇게라도 종현이의 이야기를 들을수가있어서 정말정말 고맙습니다.
I still wish people look at him, not just because of his winter, but also his artistry you know... Like new ppl listening to his songs, watch his shows. He was a very fun person too....
*First 3 piano cords starts
Me: AAAAHHHHHHHHHH
I still tear up whenever I see Jonghyun smile.
I hope he's in peace, and happy birthday you pure soul
as a shawol, this video is something i truly needed to watch. to hear the praise of our beloved jonghyun was so nice to hear. i enjoyed hearing their outputs on each song especially before our spring, thank you ✨
i knew at least one of them was gonna cry and i knew i would cry as well, at least before the video ends. that gaze of his at 9:56 will always get me. he seemed like he was capturing the moment before his eyes through his eyes so as to never forget that sight.
and instead of "when, when, when" it would actually be better suited translated to, "then, then, then."
"his musical message, his musical goodbye." :(
"i don't want to share winter with you in hopes that i don't give it to you." i have never dug it that deep and now, my heart just hurts.
and boy does henry's words hits close to home. it was so beautiful, as if patting you on the back, assuring you it's fine, and i just cried. "and just because it becomes spring doesn't mean the winter doesn't come back." exactly. thank you for your words.
I've been avoiding Before Our Spring since it was released and I'm in tears after seeing it here
Jonghyun may have moved on from this world, but his gifts of music will last forever to make us smile and help us through our own winters 💎
Today is a sad day, but lets stick together and look to the spring
R.I.P Jonghyun. Forever in our hearts 💙
안녕하세요. 샤이니를 좋아하는 팬입니다. 여러분이 이 댓글을 보실지는 모르겠지만 감사인사를 드리고 싶었어요. 종현이의 음악에 대해서 이렇게 진지하게 분석하고 즐겨주셔서 감사합니다. 종현이는 누구보다 빛나고 팬과 음악을 정말 좋아하고 열심히 했던 사람입니다. 그를 좋게 봐주셔서 감사합니다.
Huggs ♥
갑자기 리액션 영상이 재밌어서 찾아보다가 여기 채널 영상 보게 되었는데 재밌더라구요 종현이 리액션도 있네요 또 울게 될까봐 두려워서 고민하다가 봤어요 잘 참다가 우린 봄이 오기 전에 에서 울어버렸네요🤧 뮤직비디오를 차마 볼 용기가 없어서 아직까지 안 봤던 영상인데 덕분에 봤어요 고마워요
The ending of Before Our Spring gets me every time. Such a wonderful, tender soul.
I'm going into this feeling a bit defensive for some reason lol maybe it's because I still miss him so much, but thank you for these reactions they mean a lot to me and others too I'm sure. Have a great day guys can't wait for more 🥰❤️
damn, every time I rewatch this I can’t help but tear up at henry’s speech at the end. thanks again for making this!!! it’s so good to see the positive effect jonghyun’s artistry has on everyone who encounters it.
Makes my heart melt to see Jonghyun so seriously appreciated by you all, it's amazing how captivated everyone is by a wide range of Jonghyun as an artist and his music style :)
my man is so ridiculously talented and there will never ever be anyone like him. I will forever be proud of him and thankful that I was lucky enough to live during the same time he did. 💕
Thank you for this! That was such a beautiful reaction and a perfect gift on his birthday
React to jonghyun singing crazy performing thats amazing
I'm so happy for the reaction that Jonghyun is so convincing and genuine - which, the former I'll take because Kpop is such a machine - but yes because beyond his stellar vocal talent and taste for composition and production, and his sense of adventure for music, *Jonghyun loves music. And he loves people.* You get the sense that he uses music not defensively or as a way to hide in his comfort zone, but he uses his incredible gift to connect to people. He loves the craft of music, and he loves its power to connect to people, and finally *he loves people*. He loves people in a way he couldn't love himself. And that is perhaps the part that inspires me the most. His love for music, and art, and for people, and how perfectly that came together in this wonderful soul who was taken from us too soon.
This was too sad. But I just discovered this series, and I'm loving the fact that y'all talk about the music in technical terms, but also show how the musical features contribute to expression. Bravi. Glad I got to hear these wonderful Jonghyun tunes.
I don't think I'll ever stop listening to Jonghyun. I love his voice and his music really resonates with me. Thank you for your reaction.
Happy birthday Jonghyun, I think it’s always spring where you are now.
종현아 너 없는 5번째 봄이 왔어 거기는 계속 봄일까? 종현이가 좋아하는 계절이 계속되었으면 좋겠어 사랑해 항상 그립고 보고싶어 우리 나중에 다시 만나자
Hope you are okay
@@notwerkinginthishouse8634 thank you for worrying i'm still missing jonghyun now. But I try to get along well for him who will be shining there. Thanks again:)
This guy is so impressive, his voice is beautiful, his lyrics are a symphony to the heart and is heart is made of gold
Thank you very much for this tribute, those songs are amazing
I still can't listen to Before Our Spring without crying. Miss you everyday, Jonghyun.
Thank you for this! Jonghyun's artistry and music are something special and unique!
the instant y'all explained his struggles i started tearing up, had to pause for a bit. glad to be able to watch this and have him be remembered and respected for all he did! thank you again!
I still have a hard time getting through Before Our Spring... I'm so thankful y'all appreciated him as an artist and human being. A truly great tribute to him for his birthday 💞
ugh... when the cutesy pixie girl started to look as if she wanted to cry... I lost it....
The best thing we could do is keep listening and appreciating his music
Well, i'm in tears now. Thank you so much for this💙
I never really had the courage to watch Before Our Spring again, I only watched it the day it was released and cried like a baby. Today I cried hard again, because what really hurts me is that he was such a genius unique artist, he had such a beautiful soul, this world needed him so bad. I really really really wanted the spring to come for him too and it pains me deeply that it never did.
Who's crying again ? Me.
Thanks for this video~
me..... 😭
You know it✊😭😭😭💕💕💕💕❤️
Jonghyun really was so talented. He was born to perform, and born to shine. I definitely believe the rest of the members are following in his footsteps doing their own thing. I also love that SHINee as it is today, still feels like Jonghyun is there. He left such an impact on SHINee's sound that no matter what they try, it always feels like he is there singing along. Jonghyun was art and created art, and the rest of the members are doing the same thing. Minho with his love for directing emotionally provoking songs, Key with his love for visual art and vibrancy (fashion, music video set), Taemin with his interpretive dancing and tender voice that always reminds me of Jonghyun's, and Onew with his voice that works like an angelic instrument. Jonghyun must be so beyond proud
😭😭😭 broke down @ 11:00 ... im so sorry, i cannot get over this
R.I.P jonghyun💔and happy birthday💓
he’s such an angelic soul... and like so many of them said, he’s SO genuine
그냥 보고싶다는 생각이 강하게 드는 하루
종현아 너무 보고싶어 너는 정말 나한테 너무 큰 선물이야 정말 고맙고 사랑해 니가 거기서는 정말 안아팠으면 좋겠어
it made me so happy seeing people compliment his talent. he was truly a beautiful person
Melissa noo, i just woke up from a nap, now i'm crying myself to sleep again i guess
I cried.
Thank you, guys. Beautiful way to remember him. ❤
I miss him...
Its the 1st time i cried while watching a reaction video
I’m grateful for this...I haven’t been able to listen to his songs/music since then and I’ve really avoided this album but now I’m just dead crying as someone who have depression, who’s longing to have their spring
Thank you for this and Happy Birthday Jonghyun
I always listen to before our spring before sleeping it calm me and relieved me of my stresses somehow
10:18 when the spring comes, of course, though 그땐 means "then" not "when" as far as I know and the ending has a different meaning in that case.
"When I forget my tears and my sadness
When spring comes to me too
Then, then, then
Then"
And it's unfinished, because winter hasn't ended yet and the spring, when he will finally feel good again, will bring countless possibilities. And THEN we can meet, and THEN we can do all the things I'm too scared to do now, and THEN I will be myself and make you smile. Though to me, now that he's no longer with us anymore, winter is the immense sadness and pain, and spring is the afterlife, where he no longer experiences those feelings. So, when the spring finally comes then, then, then... And we don't know, because nobody knows, but I hope with all my heart that he's in a much better place now.
You did well, Jjong
I knew this would make me a mess all over again, but I'm glad I watched it anyway. It's healing to know people are still being touched by him and his wishes, and my hope is that they continue to do so. I think Henry hit it on the head saying that "his greatest wish is for everyone else to make it through their winters" - he put so much time and effort into trying to offer comfort and support to others, through his radio show, his music, his social media, anywhere he could put his voice to. And I will remember that about him forever 💙
I feel like crying every time I hear before spring ...
Just a random day, i miss him alot and can not hold back my tears.
Seeing this made me tear up again. He really was my favorite artist of all time. Nobody spoke to me in the way that he did. I feel like if he mastered one thing it is conveying emotion and being vulnerable and honest with no shame. His voice was beautiful and I'm so grateful that I've got to watch him and admire him on his journey since 2013 and that I've got these five wonderful albums to listen to that he left behind.
Forever thank you, Jonghyun. I will never forget you ❤️
I love him sometimes too much. 💙💙💙💙💙
I still feel the same pain as I did the first day but I’m so glad to see people smile and appreciate his music. He is someone to forever be celebrated, thank you so much
I watched this video a lot of times, and I cried every time, now I'm crying again. I really miss Jonghyun and read your opinions about him make me cry more.
Jonghyun really was a poet and a true artist in every sense of the word
Thankyou. Thankyou for not forgetting our Jonghyun. This video made me cry but also made me happy. He was truly one of the greatest artists and people of our time 😥💖
I've actually never listened to 'Before our Spring', I am a Shawol, but I've only listened to 'Lonely', 'breath' and 'Shinin' ' I love his singing, but I can't bring myself to listen to it, unless it's these 3 songs or SHINee songs. It would throw me into a hole of sadness, that's why I always watch cute and funny videos of him, his death was something that happened at the end of his life but he has accomplished so many other AMAZING things. I wish I could have known and loved the REAL Jonghyun, without the facade, but from the snippets I got. I know I would have loved him so much.
Even though I’m crying. Thank you so much for posting this. People still admiring him and appreciating his voice. Thank you
I cried today after my phone decided to play like his whole discography during shuffle but this made me smile
I am glad that his work still gets appreciated. He was such an amazing artist
Before our spring ~ still gets me every time . It’s a beautiful masterpiece he gave us | it warms and comfort someone though the lyric seems vulnerable. Very honest and beautiful 😊
Our Jjong... I missed him even more yesterday. Than you so much for this beautiful gift for us on his birthday! I hope you also got to see the tribute his sister posted for him? I bawled like a baby, it was amazing.
Their reactions were so beautiful 😭❤ I miss Jonghyun so much , this was really good!!! thank you for this
Thank you. I just realized how much I miss his voice... It's been while...
분명 처음엔 클래식 전공자들의 리액션을 정주행하다가 종현이형 빛이나 영상이 있길래 들어왔는데 이 노래도 있었네요. 다른 영상들 볼땐 이분들이 하시는 얘기들이 그저 음악의 구성 정도에 대한 얘기 인줄로만 알았는데 제가 아는 종현이형의 음악과 가사, 노래하는것에 대해 얘기까지 하시는걸 보면서 종현이형에 대해 모르는 사람에게도 형의 음악이 충분히 전해졌고, 형이 하고싶던 말들이 전해졌다는 게 너무나도 감동이네요. 그리고 계속 아름답다고 하시고 형의 음악에 대해 칭찬 하실 때마다 너무나도 행복했어요. 영상(번역) 감사합니다.
It took me months, months to watch the videos and to listen the album. It hurted then, it hurts now, but it also has helped me to heal. He will always be my favorite artist, my favorite voice, the one who I can always count to understand me throught his music... I sincerely thank you for this tribute, the one thing I will always fight for is for him, and his legacy, not to be forgotten.
Omg that was an emotional journey. Such a talented person he was.
His music and his voice reflect the amazing beautiful human he was and still is inside our hearts.
I'm so thankful for his music and his work full of emotions ♡
I've been taking a lot of courage to listen to this ever since the day umu uploaded this and just gathered that courage today and it still has effect on me after 2 years.
It's been a while now and I... still can't bring myself to watch nor listen to Before Our Spring. Seeing the first few seconds of the music video already had me at tears. I'm always so excited to watch y'all react to my favourite artists, but I had to exit out this one. I can't believe he's gone. I miss him.
Time has passed and I still can't watch Before our Spring. Thank you for doing this reaction. someday I hope to make it through the video without breaking down.
*sniff sniff* I cry every time I hear Jonghyun’s songs 😢
I love our beautiful fan club so much surrounded by people that understand this pain so deeply thank you all even though none of us know each other still feels like we’re all family ❤️
I’m crying so hard by just listening one note of jonghyun’s song. I miss him so much. His songs comfort me every time. His wish has been us being happy all the time. It always makes me feel so bad about his sadness. Just want to thank you for making this video. lt means a lot to me♥️
Thank you for upload outstanding reaction. Really thank you. Lots of love 😍
I put off watching this yesterday because I knew I would cry. Right when Before Our Spring started I started tearing up and by the chorus I was balling my eyes out
Thank you so much for this I was barely able to even be up for his birthday it was so hard to sit or watch this but I’m so happy that everyone could feel the power in his voice and share magnitude of love inviting warm ness of heart he had his music so happy everyone can see how special he was. still so hard not to cry either thank you posting so much for this all Shawols and SHINee well still healing together
It’s a nice feeling to see people still appreciate Jonghyun’s music, but it also hurts to know they didn’t get to know how precious he is when he was here. Jonghyun may not have made it through his Winter, but he’s in his Spring now.
I miss you so damn much, Jonghyun 😭😭😭. I pray that you are at peace and that you see how loved you are ❤️❤️❤️. What a beautiful soul...
I absolutely love that you did this. Thank you!
I had to pause several times during Before Our Spring. I still can't get through that video without crying :(
I struggled a lot last year with listening to Jonghyun’s music. I avoided it because I always felt so sad listening to his voice. But then I watched your End of a Day/She Is reaction and was moved by the reactors words. I can’t remember who said it, but one of the reactors said that every song is a piece of Jonghyun’s soul, and somehow that made me want to start listening to his music again because they are right. Listening to Jonghyun’s music is a celebration of who he is, and this reaction again reminded me of all of that. So thanks, for helping me get through my own winter and for keeping his memory alive.
I saw the Jonghyun's debut with SHINee in 2008. He did well and he will alive in our hearts.
