Mirotic has been covered by so many boy groups so maybe that’s where you’ve heard of it before. Yunho did the first high note in down and then Changmin. Both are crazy vocalists!
It's also one of the most famous fan chants in Kpop. I think pretty much everyone in Korea that listens to Kpop knows the Mirotic fan chant.
Right haha. Doesnt matter which generation you've become a kpop fan. Everyone just knows that Mirotic fanchant ❤
even by girlgroup
TVXQ started the Hallyu wave in Asia. They were like Gods in the early 2000s in the whole of Asia.
indeed the name is gods of asia
The high note while falling down from the sky was by Yunho. The others extreme high notes were by Changmin. Almost all listeners think high notes were by Changmin.
They are both amazing. Especially their life performances. They are like Olympic champions among kpop. Always show top quality of vocals, dance, stage presence.
Seeing those two singing like this and know that these two both weren’t main vocals in TVXQ OT5. Especially Yunho improved more and more in singing higher notes, after they were only two. (And he was already great even when they were 5)
Yunho's solo work is also totally worth checking out! the entire vuja de album is incredible
30:19 - YES HE DOES THAT LIVE! Changmin really pulls of these notes in their MAMA performance. And besides that, two of them just devoured it live (dance, presence, vocal wise)
Just a correction: the performance on MAMA was not live, they used pre-recorded vocals. But of course Changmin can pull those high notes live, he's insanely good.
@@lavieenbleu_ TY for correcting ✨
@@lavieenbleu_ La Cancion de "Down" fue cantada en Live se escucha muy claro,ademas no es la primera vez que llegan a notas tan altas como en esta cancion ,como se nota que no lo conoces😁
@@rytovaar4311 es en Live,si busca el Focus de Yunho cuando llega a la nota mas alta se nota aun mas 😉
@@margheritaguccimartinez but I didn't say that they can't reach those high notes. I've known them for quite a long time to know that they can do. But this MAMA performance was not live. You can easily see how their body movements doesn't correspond to the sound of their voices. Even when Changmin is doing that specific high note, you can just see how his acting. But it's not TVXQ's fault. SM artists barely sing live these days, very differently than it was during TVXQ ot5 era, for example.
Their live performances are INSANE
Can't wait for part 2!! Yunho and Changmin are forever progressing and evolutioning, and and they never show that they're gonna stop. Their vocals absolutely improving massively..Changmin can easily do high notes effortlessly..and Yunho constantly improving his vocal from a baritone, and a rapper to hit that first high note in "Down" 😭
In Mirotic, the first high note was Changmin's, and the last high notes with ad-libs was Jaejoong. Mirotic is a kpop anthem and everyone in South Korea knows this song, although the newer gens might not know who the original singers were. And of course, plenty of kpop groups had performed Mirotic.
They are still performing Catch Me 😬 The latest one was during 2021 SMCU. That the props that they wore at their arms are not CGI, they really did light up.
Their discography is HUUGEEE with half of them are Japanese releases cuz they're more popular in Japan. Almost everyone knows them in Japan even if they don't follow their music. Overall, they're the well respected seniors in kpop, and Japanese adore them. They're the king of Japan.
Other songs that might want to listen:
Spellbound
Something
The Chance of Love
Truth
Their solo works are AWESOME TOO! Their latest solo works:
U-know: 'NEXUS' (Aug 2023) from his latest mini album 'Reality Show' (Nexus is a 14-minutes cinematic masterpiece with intriguing storyline that connects all the snippets of the songs, like an album sampler. Nexus was screened in Asia Short Film Festival.)
Changmin: 'DEVIL' from the album 'Devil' (2021). Amazing, amazing song with of course, Changmin's powerful vocals.
I remember when Mirotic and Purple Line came out! This was the group that introduced me to kpop! They’ve got some iconic songs! Brings me back to my middle school days! U-Know was my bias! I love Hug so much! Definitely recommend Purple Line, Rising Sun, Tri-angle, O, Balloons, Hi Ya Ya!
TVXQ’s live performances are very addictive; I have been hooked ever since I saw them in 2012 and attend concerts almost every year. They are hugely popular in Japan and are produced by Avex with a somewhat different genre than SM’s. I suggest you checkout their Nissan stadium performances in Japan. There was a typhoon, but they performed live for 3.5 hours. I was present and it was the most breathtaking moment.
По доброму завидую вам. Жаль, что они не гастролируют в Европе. :(
@@user-wg1jf2ww2b Yes definitely it's a shame. I guess before social media became big, Kpop's influence was mainly in Asia:((
I was at Nissan Stadium in 2018 too!!! 🎉😊 Everything on me (including my poor backpack) was soaked since the last concert day was the only day that rained the entire day (out of the 3-day concert) 😂 Fine memories LOLOL
Another one to check is Keep your head down
The first high note was Yunho's, then it's Changmin's time❤❤
Entering into 20 years of their debut, they are still as humble and passionate as ever. They never tired of paying attention to and giving feedbacks and motivations to their juniors. That's why are are so respected by their juniors.
SM and music style mashups, a love story for 20+ years 😊 Rising Sun and Tri-angle are the representative songs for that you will 100% lose your mind listening to them. I'd recommend looking the meaning of Rising Sun beforehand as well as it's a very deep song.
Other recs:
5 members - as we're approaching the festive season too can't skip Magic Castle (harmonies heaven), Tonight (harmonies heaven #2), O-正.反.合., Purple Line ( and the legendary "I touch myself line" 😂)
2 members - Keep Your Head Down and Before You Go, Humanoids (as someone who doesn't like early 2010s EDM heavy music either, I prefer it to Catch Me), Spellbound, Love Line, Truth (which was their last Korean release before Down, it has a Jamiroquai-ish acid jazz vibe)
Solos:
Yunho's Follow, Thank U (age restricted), Vuja De and Changmin's Maniac all reference various movies in the MV! They are very fun watches
Changmin - Me Myself & I, Chocolate, All That Love, Devil
Yunho - Loco (House Party) such a fun song, Need You Right Now, Eeny Meeny
They have a ton of Japanese songs as well but reactions will probably be blocked. My personal favs are Somebody To Love, Spinning, Jealous, Hot Sauce, Manazashi, and Yunho's Kimi ha Saki e Iku (君は先へ行く)
TVXQ is Legendary.....they truly are the legends if we talk about history everything that happened with them is a first!! In my opinion they are the pioneers of modern K-pop!!
You should check out the soloists singles as well. Honourable mentions:
Yunho: champagne, drop
Junsu: tarantellegra, incredible, flower, rock the world, pit a pat
Jaejoong: just another girl
For JYJ: Get out, back seat
Keep your head down and Spellbound 🙌🙌😲😲 PLEASEEE
Edit: literally two seconds later i see them in the video coming tomorrow
"SOMETHING" is suchhh a good song
Thank you for reacting to TVXQ and their 20th anniversary album prerelease "Down"!! TVXQ have been pioneers in the kpop industry and are the idols of idols. They have so many incredible songs from every era, so I highly recommend you continue to listen to their varied discography.
Their 9th album comes out on December 26, 2023 - hopefully you can support them!
OMG OMG OMG OMG YESSSS FINALLY TVXQ 😭😭😭 PLS DO MORE SONGS. MY FAVORITE SONG IS WHY, I HOPE YOU REACT TO IT.
The OG the gods of kpop.. they 5 were unbeatable
after watching their performance on MAMA, as old time kpop lover i've been craving more of their stage and music. please check out Keep Your Head Down it's my favorite song of them. Thanksss, hope you enjoy more of TVXQ!!!
Legends of KPOP❤
Been a cassie since 2008 so right before the lawsuit which completely broke me and there was alot of drama with the 3 members leaving and people taking sides including me 😔 but now seeing them do their own thing and live their own lives im so happy for them. Definitely check out more of their stuff they are so talented. Kings of kpop in my opinion 😁
I absolutely can't wait for part 2! TVXQ are so cool and their skills are imaculate! In down, I love how U-Know Yunho got a super high note to sing juste before Changmin, it really showcase how both of them are amazing! Tbh I even hope you will do a part 3 with just their solo works because I feel like you will really enjoy them too!
As for Mirotic... tbh it's like every boy groups got to cover it or will cover it in the future. It's like a classic choreography they probably all learn during their trainee days!
Literally every idol on earth and their mothers and grandmothers covered this song. It’s that legendary 😂❤
Finally TVXQ!!! here is the most watch of them
Spellbound
Keep your head down
Before u go
Something
Wrong number
How did I forget Wrong Number. I also love Purple Line. I have loved these guys so long!
Do not forget.. before u go.. masterpiece
Omg thank you so much for this reaction, I love TVXQ, my bias is Yunho, and also one of my favs songs is Catch Me, and Wrong Number is my fav, they are amazing, I hope you can react more to them.
No current groups can sing like that 😌😌😌
2nd Gene was something else.
You gotta see their performance "Down" live performance in MAMA 2023!!!
YES, ARE THEY VOCALS 100%. iM ENJOY YOUR FACES SO MUCH, WHILE FEELING PROUD SAME TIME, WELCOME TO TVXQ WORLD, BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.
CORRECT WORDS!
As a VIP, TVXQ is the only group I can put side by side in terms of skills, or even a little higher in terms of vocals, with BIGBANG. Totally different but equally TALENTED. And no one has yet to surpass these two cuz they don't make groups like these anymore.
Fun fact: TVXQ/DBSK/Tohoshinki means "Rising Gods of the East", that's why they're called the "GODS OF KPOP".
As a vip I agree with you 💛
there are quite a few groups that are better vocalists than bigbang
not to be shady but tvxq is waaaay more vocally talented than bigbang, in fact there are quite a lot of groups that are more vocally talented. sure bigbang is good but there are better
there are a LOT of groups that surpass bigbang when it comes to vocals 💀 now rapping is a different thing
Shinee, BTOB and Forstella?
So glad you enjoyed their music! 💕 They are so talented and I hope you check out more. Here are some suggestions to get you started.
TVXQ:
- Something
- Spellbound
- Chance of Love
- Truth
U-Know:
- Follow
- Thank U
- Nexus Film / Vuja De
Max Changmin:
- Chocolate
- Devil
- Fever
Ooh Something is such a good song!
Can't wait until you got into the solo work too! Glad you had fun 😊
If you are reacting to TVXQ you have to do Keep Your Head Down. That song is so iconic and epic its crazy
Thanks for your reaction!! Down: the first high note was Yunho, the others was ChangMin
Please react to Truth, Spellbound, Something and Love Line ❤
Thank U ❤
ma KINGs r juzz that talented!! 🔥
I think you should also listen to Keep Your Head Down and Maximum. These were two songs from their first album as a duo and we were blown away
And their Japanese ballads are some of the best (Love in the Ice, Heart Mind and Soul, etc)
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!! ahhhh it's not even premiered yet but i already think you need to do more 😅 they have a loooooot lots of masterpiece, the pioneer of kpop, the ones who rebuild kpop back in 2003 when the industry almost collapsed, the first to do promo and tour outside korea, TVXQ 🔥
Rising Sun, Spellbound, something and the chance of love would be a great reaction ! The songs showcase well their vocals !!
Yayyy finally the legends TVXQ!! Can't wait for more reactions of them ^^
Wow, I didnt know TVXQ released a song this year, it's so good, wth
you should watch more solo of them it's so gooooooood!!
非常謝謝您的reaction ❤(我看了兩遍😊）, TVXQ的確是目前韓流的傳奇人物，從五人到現在二人團體，我追隨了20年，因為偏愛允浩，所以看他們努力不懈的不斷成長非常感動，其他成員我也常關注，希望都能繼續出新作品，但請特別關注這次TVXQ20周年的新專輯，其中先行曲DOWN 已經有MV及現場演出，請您繼續聽2023／12／26的新專輯❤❤，THANK YOU 😊😊
Thank you for reacting to TVXQ, their vocals are amazing, and they've only have gotten better with time. I will wait for part 2, you should check out their live performances!
you should react to their performance of down from this year's MAMA awards
Amei sua reação porque lembro de ter me sentido da mesma maneira quando comecei a acompanhar TVXQ! Especialmente em Down dá pra notar o quão experientes, talentosos e profissionais eles são, com o passar do tempo eles só ficam melhores, as notas altas do Changmin são uma loucura, e vir exatamente no momento em que ele fala ´´down`` traz um senso de desespero, um clamor pela veracidade do sentimento que deixa a música belíssima.
O Yunho lançou o 3rd mini álbum recentemente, em agosto, um excelente trabalho, muito criativo e apaixonado, cheio da essência do Yunho, vale muito a pena conferir caso ainda não tenha visto.
they've been killing it for 20 years!!!
You need to watch their live performances. Their vocals are even better ❤
OMG you have to listen to 'Something' by TVXQ its literally so amazign and catchy its literally my second favorite song by them!(second to mirotic😂)
They're acapella amazing too, you should listen
That's what Max is known for!
And to think Chen and Baekhyun can do the exact same thing when covering TVXQ songs....but TVXQ are Exo older brothers at SM, Exo grew up at SM with TVXQ watching and mentoring Exo as Exo grew up, along with Shinee and Super Junior members, when Exo came along, periodically they would run into each other in the conference room (like a big lunchroom with doors at both ends of the room) and if they see each other in there eating, they would pop in on each other and chat, share food, hug, just a big family....I love that they all support each other, and Max and Yunho are no exception....TVXQ are SM ROYALTY...
Check out some songs from the guys when they were going solo...
YUNHO - Drop, Thank U
MAX - Devil
TVXQ - Spellbound
TVXQ BROUGHT ME INTO KPOP in 2006 -2008
with "Keep Your Head Down"
(CLASSIC MV)
💙🌺

Thank you so much for reacting to TVXQ! 💕
Finally TVXQ omggg!! Please react to TVXQ love in the ice and Bolero live. You’ll be amazed 🥹🥹
That's my king tvxq❤
U know NEXUS PLEASE AND MAX CHANGMIN DEVIL
😮 ooh.. yesss.
TVXQ are the first male artist from SM (actually ever) that I started following 😍
Fun fact: they've done several op songs for the anime One Piece 😊
I got youuuu under my skin yeeees 🎉🎉🎉
Please, yes!!! I wanna see your reaction to their performance in MAMA
TVXQ's "Mirotic," which came out in 2008, is a classic in the Kpop industry and every new rookie group -- both boy groups and girl groups -- learn this song and choreography and almost every rookie has performed it on music programs, award shows, at showcases, etc. at least once in their career. This song, like SHINee's "Ring Ding Dong," Girls' Generation's "Gee" and Super Junior's "Sorry Sorry," etc. is pretty much compulsory for everyone in the entertainment industry to know and learn the song and dance to.
"Mirotic" is a made up word that really has no meaning, but it is derived from a play on the word mirror + otic -- the title was originally supposed to be something like mirror but they thought the word sounded better if you added otic to the end of it, (it made it sound cooler, or something.) Think of it as the words mirror and exotic combined -- that's just how you pronounce the title, not the meaning of the word.
In the MV for "Mirotic" the woman is supposed to be a siren, like from Greek mythology, and she is tempting and trapping or luring the TVXQ members to her. Like they say in the song "... I got you under my skin ..." But in the end you see how the members have broke free from her control. (Often in Greek mythology the siren, through her intoxicating love powers, lures guys to their deaths.)
The choreographer for "Catch Me" is Tony Testa, who has worked with a lot of SM's artists, such as SHINee and Super Junior. Changmin and U-Know have said that Tony told them he got the idea for this choreography because the inflight movie that was shown on the flight from the U.S. to Korea was one of the Avengers movies and he was inspired by the Hulk. So that is why they were supposed to be animatronic robots with giant arms. In the MV when their arms light up that is done in post production, but you should check out some of their live performances of the song, because in some of their live performances -- such as in SM's end of the year SMCU Express SMTown concert on New Year's eve in 2021-22 -- they have LED arm bands, so they really do light up. With all the water in this MV, the choreography was super difficult. If you were to watch the behind the scenes of them filming the MV, you would see how everyone kept slipping and falling down and they kept having to redo those scenes. czcams.com/video/8INOtewTfaY/video.html (Sorry couldn't find one with subs.) You should also check out the dance practice, czcams.com/video/JzSgMwrSfOk/video.html.
TVXQ's "Down" is their lead track from their 9th full-length Korean album, 20&2 -- 20 years and still 2 members strong -- which is a celebration of their 20th anniversary this year. "Down" is just a pre-release track from the album, I can't wait to hear what their title track "20&2" will be like. The album will be released on their anniversary, Dec. 26.
If you think this was good, you definitely have to check out their MAMA performance this year where they showcased "Down" even before the MV was released. You'll be able to hear all those high notes from Changmin live. They also had an epic collaboration stage with RIIZE, where they performed TVXQ's iconic song "Rising Sun."
TVXQ truly are all-time legends in the music industry. As an SM Entertainment group, it's no surprise that they are outstanding vocalists. TVXQ was originally supposed to be a purely acapella group, so they all have amazing vocals. They actually have several acapella performances in their early days that really showcase how amazing they were as vocalists. TVXQ is one of the reasons why SM is known as a vocal powerhouse and why the company has come to be known for having some of the best dancers and vocalists in the industry.
As you discovered, TVXQ's fandom is Cassiopeia and their fan color is pearl red -- which is why you see one of the primary colors in most of TVXQ's MVs is red -- and when you attend a TVXQ concert you will see an ocean of red. Therefore, if you look up the lyrics for "Mirotic" you will see the "red ocean" they are referencing has a double meaning -- The "red" ocean is what the siren is trying to capture the TVXQ member in and she is trying to use her powers to capture and control them (red is often used to represent a powerful force) and it's also referring to the "red ocean" of their fans. Welcome to the Cassiopeia fandom. (Their fandom is named after the 5-starred constellation, Cassiopeia, because they originally were 5 members who were supposed to be gods who came from the stars.) If you like TVXQ then you are a Cassi. (In Japan their fans are called BigEast because Tohoshinki are Gods of the East and they have one of the largest fandoms.)
Here is some background to help you understand the dynamics of TVXQ better. TVXQ (English and Chinese)/DBSK (Korean)/ Tohoshinki (Japanese), which each are the abbreviations/acronyms of the words in each language that translates to mean "Rising Gods of the East," debuted in 2003 as a 5 member group. But, in 2010 three of their members left SM Entertainment and the group and formed a new group called JYJ -- the initials of the members: Junsu, Yoochun and Jaejoong. (Up until recently, JYJ was still a group and they still produced music, but because they left SM Entertainment -- one of the most powerful and influential companies in the industry -- on less than ideal terms, it has made it more difficult for them to promote themselves and their music. So the members of JYJ are more known as actors and producers than they are as singers now.)
However, Max/Changmin and U-Know/Yunho continued as TVXQ as a duo. The day after Christmas will be TVXQ/DBSK/Tohoshinki's 20th anniversary, and even now as a duo they are so talented that they have the vocal range to cover all the parts of a song between the two of them, including rap.
Changmin (the youngest member) was 15 and U-Know was 17 years old when they debuted, so, you're right, Changmin was a baby in "Hug. Although they are one of the senior Kpop groups, Changmin is only 35 and U-Know is 37. TVXQ is SM's most senior group that is still active, but U-Know and Changmin are still younger than, or the same age as, many of the members of the legendary groups who came after them within their generation. They are best friends with Super Junior and they pretty much all grew up together. Changmin is also best friends with Minho from SHINee. And Xiumin from EXO says Changmin was one of the reason why he auditioned for SM because he wanted to meet Changmin and become like him.
As you heard, Changmin is known for his powerful high notes -- even more powerful than Onew or Jonghyun from SHINee or Chen and Baekhyun from EXO -- he literally has one of the widest note ranges of almost any Kpop artist. In a high note battle he always wins.
It wouldn't be a TVXQ/Changmin song if we didn't get to hear at least one unbelievable high note from him. (Fun fact: Changmin got married in 2020 and he became a father to a boy last year.)
U-Know is known for his dancing and his passion for dancing and singing. He is also the rapper of the group. (U-Know truly loves what he does and doesn't hide it. He will tell you he is proud of his accomplishments and he is proud of his work. His off-the-charts passion and intensity is kind of a running joke within the industry. It's one of the things he is most known for.)
The funny thing is personality-wise, Changmin and U-Know are complete opposites in almost every way. Changmin is quiet, calm and level headed and prefers to be alone; and U-Know is loud, high energy, intense and prefers to be with a group of people.
Tohoshinki (TVXQ) are one of the most famous singers in Japan as well, even among Japanese artists. And like SHINee and BoA, etc., they are so popular in Japan that they are considered part of the mainstream music scene. TVXQ has one of the biggest worldwide fan bases and they sell out some of the largest concert venues in the world. They are one of SM Entertainment's top selling groups, easily selling out concert tours around the world.
Catch Me is just THAT song, one of my favorites of them, I love it. Down is amazing, it gives me Catch Me vibes idk why but anyway I really liked it.
Did you watch Boys Planet? Jiwoong/Jongwoo auditioned with “Mirotic”. It is also one of the most popular idol songs of all time in Korea.
You probably know Mirotic because what feels like the whole industry has covered this song at some point lmao It's THAT popular. I'd love to see you react to their ballads like Why Did I Fall In Love With You, Picture of You, Asu Wa Kuru Kara, Love In The Ice and Tonight.
Omg a legendary and iconic group! Thank you for getting into them!
TVXQ were the first vocal legends of the kpop industry. Their live performances are *insane* as a 5 member group. Also, Mirotic is like the most covered song within Kpop together with EXO's Growl, I think that's why you probably heard it somewhere before😂
I hope you'll check out their solo songs as well, I love it equally as much as their group work 🥰
omggg thank you for reacting to tvxq! they are kingsssss!! (and yes i love that even when they try new genres and new concepts, but they still keep their colors >
I am so happy you react to one of my all time favourite groups again (like Vixx and Pentagon) and enjoy their music! It was the same for me with the dubstep elements int he songs: normally I don't really like it, but TVXQ somehow makes it work and I really love it... For other songs I would definitively recommend Rising Sun (the absolute best song of all time), The Chance of Love, Why? (Keep Your Head Down), Something and Tri-Angel. But they have sooo many great Japanese songs too and awesome b-sides like Jungel, Off-road and more. There's a lot to discover :)
THE EMPERORS OF KPOP
Oh yes, catch me is my fav song from tvxq. Please watch ' the chance of love ' and ' something'. You should check out their solos , especially "chocolate" by changmin and 'thank you ' by yunho
DO MORE SONGS PLS! 'Rising Sun' is a huge hit ofc. 'Tonight' is a great song with amazing vocals, and 'O' is one of my fav title tracks
My favourite band since 2009. the best forver!!!! who else think the same ❤
TVXQ was originally debuted as Acapella dance group. That why every members are good at singing.Please check out their acapella songs. As a cassiopeia I’m really proud to say that my man are truly legend!
fyi, mirotic is like...SONG OF THE DECADES😭🖤 perhaps, u've heard mirotic by NCT's cover? or anywhere probably🤣 bcs if im not mistaken, almost all kpop groups have sung this song at least once 🖤
I only got into them last year and what sealed the deal for me was Rising Sun (even though I might love Tri-Angle more) I had the same reaction as you lso I’d love a part 2!
Thank you for reacting ❤ I love TVXQ ❤
Hello, I enjoy watching your reaction to TVXQ - 5 or 2 members. I can say by now you are becoming their fan, right? Yes you are right, the remaining 2 members of TVXQ which are Yunho - Uknow and Changmin - Max are excellent singers especially Changmin with his high notes. I'm always impressed by his highnotes in all their songs. You should watch Dingo Music, both Yunho and Changmin went to sing live and I was blown away by Yunho's vocals too....didn't realised he is such an amazing singer as well.
Oh you opened the jar of real candy now!!! I would love to see you react to 'keep you head down' and 'something' and if you can 'love in the ice' live. You won't be disappointed
Ahhh!!! I'm so happy to see you reacting to TVXQ! Would also recommend Rising Sun and Tri-Angle!
I remember I was in high school when I discovered TVXQ (found them through listening to BoA). I had their songs on repeat.
I am subscribing and will be on the look out for more tvxq reactions! They've been my favorite group since 2010. Everyone has already given great suggestions, but I definitely second Spellbound. And keep your head down was the first song back as a full duo in 2011. Happy listening!!
OMG YESSS TVXQ!!!!
I sincerely reccomend the song: rising sun by them next time. The vocals are sooo good and the song is such a vibe
YESSS FINALLY MY HARMONY KINGSS PLEASE LISTEN TO MORE OF THEMM wrong number, bolero live, & before u go next please
thanks for this review, it’s nice to see someone bother to get to know the group before reviewing, haha.
songs i would recommended are “before u go”, “spellbound”, “truth”. from yunho’s solo works: “why”, “follow”, “tarantino”.
from changmin’s: “maniac”, “alien”, “devil”, “hybrid”.
some comments just as i’ve been watching the video:
1. they’ve been a duo for pretty long in that most fans don’t even know they used to be 5, and their discography as two is insanely huge
2. the culture of boybands in the early 2000s wasn’t much because hallyu/kpop was dying, so their concept was an “acapella dance” group that worked really well, and a lot of the group structures you see in k-pop now (having a main dancer, main vocalist, lead vocalist, etc) was formulated by sm for TVXQ, just because they were all vocalists and needed to be arranged. though, you’ll see the roles switch around in their b-sides and all of them have had their fair share of songs being main/lead vocals.
3. anime hairstyle… you should check out tri-angle!
4. you might know mirotic because it’s probably the most covered song in k-pop! (the high note is changmin’s).
5. on catch me: yunho and changmin weren’t considered the “best vocalists” when they were 5 so they’ve gotten a lot of criticism, but in my opinion, they’ve grown to be some of the best vocalists in the industry.
6. changmin is super into gospel music (idk what else to call it 😭) and he kills it. “devil”, “don’t let me down” are great examples.
7. in 2015 they went through their biggest musical shift to focus on jazz, R&B, pop (in their korean discog. they still have SMP tracks, but their japanese discog is the one that still focuses a lot on house, edm, rock, etc.). their upcoming 2023 title might be SMP, but that’s why you’ll see more R&B and jazz influences past 2015, including “Down”.
8. the first high note in down is yunho’s! they both hit the highest notes they’ve ever hit with this song.
thanks for watching Down! i hope you tune in for their comeback and title on dec 26
Thank you for reacting to TVXQ!!
Just to briefly explain their career, they were HUGE right from their debut. SM was not a succesful company as they are now and were in financial difficulties. Lee Sooman decided to put the five most talented trainees (he literally said once that each member was capable of being a center of diffierent groups) in one group, and that was TVXQ.
SoKor's music industry was in deep recession with record low sales along with the first idol generation dying out, but TVXQ singlehandedly revived it and kickstarted the second generation. They had annual #1 album sales in 2006 and 2008 and swept numerous awards. Also was the one of the first K-pop groups to get tangible overseas popularity, being the first idol to perform in Tokyo Dome and hosting continental tours right from 2006. Literally not an exaggeration to say that paved the way for all kpop groups to follow. It's a shame that their five members days were so short, but it makes their career even more amazing thinking how short they were together.
They also debuted as an 'acapella group' and had amazing harmonies. Check out their ha ha song campaign harmony if you wanna see them do acapella live.
Yunho and Changmin as a duo went through many difficulties; almost everyone thought they couldn't do it with just two of them, as Jaejoong and Junsu were the main vocalists and Micky had the biggest fandom & recognition domestically. They were also blamed as traitors for staying with SM (but not saying that the other three members weren't blamed as well) so they had a lot of things to prove. Thankfully they persisted and came back stronger as a duo. Their 2011 comeback song Keep Your Head Down after the breakup is literally their message to the other three members haha.
With them as a duo, you gotta do Rising Sun and Why (Keep Your Head Down) Live performance at the 2018 Begin Again Tour in Nissan Stadium! They are even more amazing live.
Jaejoong has amazing solo work as well, especially his rock era like Just Another Girl and Butterfly. Check these out if you have time.
No pudiste explicarlo mejor ❤, gracias por esto ❤
You should watch tvxq Mirotic 2023, with yunho and changmin, they slayed tbh.
You should react to spellbound !! This song is really amazing
omg i LOVE this. please do more tvxq, particularly their songs as a 5 piece, although their music as a duo is also fantastic. i think no group will ever be able to replicate the magic of early tvxq. their vocals are unmatched, there is no current group like them. Some songs i suggest are Tonight, My Little Princess, Hi Ya Ya, Purple Line, Rising Sun, Holding Back the Tears, O, Balloons and Triangle but you cannot go wrong with any tvxq mv ❤️❤️
first vixx and now tvxq!! you're hitting all of my favourite groups recently! I hope you start a tvxq journey as well! Their lives are absolutely *amazing*!!!
TVXQ is one of the best kpop groups of all time and I will never get sick of people discovering them and Changmin's voice. JUST WAIT til you watch Changmin's solo work. It's INCREDIBLE!!! And this man can do this LIVE !!!!!!!
You should listen to it during concerts, I've been to more than one in Japan, It's crazy🤩🫶
@@esperanzaramirezherrera9496 omg how lucky
I recommend their "Love in the Ice" live performance, "Rising Sun", "O", and their Japanese songs "Doushite Kimi Wo Suki Ni Natte Shimatten Darou?" and "Purple Line"
When it comes to tvxq, it is a must to check out their live especially their ballad songs. If you want to hear more of their harmony, you can check out their always there mv.
I first heard "Mirotic" by the Lipstick Guys (with Moonbin and Hyunjin)...also the live version is unblievable!!! ❤
It's so nice to see those songs in one reaction. Good choice ^^
Mirotic is universal song. So yep, you will encounter this song at some point if you are into KPop.
more tvxq plssssss
it's interesting to hear that people generally expect groups to last years and years nowadays since there are quite a number of groups now that are still together after 10+ years...i think up until early third gen people still feared the 7 year curse because very few surpassed that mark that time
I've loved TVXQ for over 16 years now. They're highly under estimated.
Mirotic .. under my skin Sarah Conor!..
Coz myself wdnt hv stopped figuring it out! 😅
Ure welcome!😊
