- Hello, innovation??? What a cool mix of styles!!!
Past K-Pop songs have included quotes from real classical pieces ( • [MV] GFRIEND(여자친구) _ S... ) or classically inspired string instrumentation, but to the best of our knowledge, this Taemin song is the first one to mix Romantic era piano with an urban/hip hop feel ^^

Can you get the others on the channel to react to this video? 👉👈 would be very interesting
Pls react tk chungha "bicycle"
Please react to Ateez' performances on Kingdom
Do it nct dream hot sauce
pls react to B.I 'illa illa'
Much of the brilliance of this song is how the choreography plays against both the melody and the beat.
Yes, you're very right ma'am. That's what infuses how astonishing everything about the song is
How so
And didn’t jasper choreograph this
@@wannebemo4562 how so what? And yes kasper choreographed this
Choreo and the visuals
Yeah, I think music-wise, the song is pretty constant but what makes me like it so much is because it gives Taemin a big chance to put his personality in his voice and intonation. I think it what drives to song forward
Yeah his vocal delivery is *chef's kiss*
Exactly 👏🏽
Agree 👏👏👏
I think taemin is what makes this song so special. The beat itself doesn't change too much to emphasize taemin constantly change tone, registers and flow. It shows how he's really come along way from someone who was relatively quite at debut to someone who can carry a song on his own
Umu: "I think I might get a little bit addicted to this song"
me: is addicted to the song
it keeps playing on my mind ;-; so good
Taemin is the BEST Solo performer of our Generation. He has MJs aura. He stands out from the rest. ACE of aces. KING of kings. His Artistry is unmatched. What a LEGEND
EXACTLY EXACTLY
Somehow, one fandom would get triggered by this. Lol
I'm an EXO-L but can't argue with that 🤷♀️😃
Absolutely ♡♡
@@nogamenolife1901 idk which fandom you're referring to but exo-ls adore him,we are a family after all and no one argues with the fact that tae is THE ace of kpop
But if you're referring to that other fandom that's also in my mind,then i agree with you
Not an exaggeration to say ive had this song on repeat since it dropped.
Taemin said "im doing hot girl shit"
King. Icon. Who is doing it like him? No one.
I am just curious -- what do you mean he is doing hot girl shit???? Genuinely curious.
@@daysjours it's a meme
No because SAME. Just like drunk-dazed. On repeat all the time
I totally understand what Sean was saying about repeated progressions. Classical musicians have a lower tolerance for them, because they've heard them before, but somehow the repetition didn't bother me at all in this song. I guess there was enough difference in timbre, rhythm, melody, and choreography each time that I didn't get bored. And Taemin in cool outfits. But I could listen to this just with the audio and still like it. There actually is a bit of variation each time with the ending of the progression - sometimes the last V chord isn't there or is delayed. Note: In the review of this video with Taemin and Minho, Minho also says the post chorus sounds like a duck.
I thought I would get tired of it but it's been over a week and I'm still so addicted to it. I think the repeated progressions came out so perfectly thanks to the variation Taemin's voice brought to it. A masterpiece!
you put it in a good way. I can relate to often wanting more from a song (and I think I could like this song more if it showed more varation). But something with this song when I do listen to it I’m not complaining I’m really enjoying and living in it. Not a musician but I didn’t know why this song for being so repetitive is so special other than the fact that it just fits my usual type of craving as I enjoy intense songs that fill you up with emotion.
I think the repeated progression emphasizes the atmosphere of feeling trapped/an oppressive environment, and the slight variation are kind of like attempts to escape or a struggle to emerge as an individual, to get out of this oppressive and limiting box represented by the repeated pattern
Taemin music always hits different he is an artist. Cant wait until he comes back❤
When is he enlisting?
@@shannen1745 I belive May 31 so in 3 days
@@gloriapatriciadragic8012 oh.. 😔😭
Must be tough for Taemin to outdo his previous gems on every comeback. I got a big shock hearing it first time in his Beyond concert. Didn't like it much. After watching the MV though, I understand the style he's going for and the song grew on me after every listen. The piano part is the one that draws me in mostly. Very brave and bold of him to choose this song as the title track. It's very different from his previous works.
just appreciating how you reached out to one of the writers to confirm the inspiration of advice!! it's just a little thing but I appreciate the effort nonetheless 💜💜
Agreed, there has been so much speculation as to inspiration... Beethoven, Mozart... ah, Schubert though.
Think Taemin himself is the element that makes it special. 😊 Like if it'll be performed by others we'd actually see how ordinary the song is, but because it was Taemin it felt different, artistic, and special.
Exactly this! What elevates this song as a masterpiece is Taemin himself and his vocal delivery.
My thoughts exactly!! Because it's Taemin.. The song becomes a masterpiece.
Although this syncopation is repeated again and again through out the whole song, I'm so obsessed with it and find it so beautiful as a melody, that I don't really mind it's repetitiveness! But in the end, I think Taemin is the one that elevates his songs the best.
i was surprised you react to this since the song doesn't change much but a lot of what makes this enjoyable for me is:
1. an unexpected genre for taemin
2. the vocalisation
2b. the pitched doubling
2c. rhythm stuff (like vocal rhythm and bass/percussion, taemin's been dabbling in trap beats more since black rose and im intrigued by his take on current pop tropes)
3. performance
and even though i don't agree with Sean's comments (for my ears the piano progression is one of my fav things about the song), it makes total sense to me from the perspective of his ears
Same thing, my ears prioritise that sound of the piano because it's just so good, then with Taemin's voice, that was pure eargasm
No matter what, Taemin is always bringing something new to this industry. Kpop will be a less brighter place without him for the next 18 months!
Yes! Imagine being 13 years and up in the industry and still bringing so much new and fresh energy and approach every single time!
For some of us this is probably the closest we'll get to listening to anything with classical music on repeat 😁
LOOOOOL
Taemin always has a specific sound that makes his songs unique while also doing something new and innovative. Seriously no one is doing it like him in terms of his performances, great vocals, and having absolute bops.
This song and the entire series is utterly brilliant. Yes they are decently simple songs but not when you combine the song, choreo, storyline, and arc of it all. He's telling a story and if each piece was too complex the story would be lost. He's figured out who he is, where his strengths are and he's combined them beautifully. To have that accomplished at such a young age is actually extraordinary.
Well said! You must be an artist or creator of some sort because you are right on.
@@4Peace. thank you! Yes I am, and I write for magazines often about different artists as well so tearing them apart is part of my job lol. I'm a tough cookie to impress. I love kpop but I often find it pretty one dimensional. Taemin is anything but. And my favourite thing about him is that he is both a genius artist... AND a child. Which I suppose is often the same thing.
That sounded derogatory, but I mean that when he's not performing or in professional mode, he's got this beautiful exuberance about him. He's used to being the baby and he reverts back into that sort of carefree headspace pretty easily so his personality is an interesting dichotomy.
I love the piano in the song so much, it hooked me so bad. I love that it’s all throughout the song
I think the beauty of taemins songs is that the song could be basic and his vocals just takes it to the next level. To be honest I’m so glad that is was such simple progression because he had so much vocal range (those chords in the chorus omg) and creativity with syncopation, dynamics and especially with his rap.
So, I dont usually like listening to songs too often because I get the feeling they become numb or dull, but I've been listening to Advice at least two times a day since it came out and I still haven't got tired of it... it's like it gets addictive the more you listen to it
Yeah I absolutely agree with both Umu and Sean this time. There isn't anything that stands out in the song like Sean said, especially compared to the other kinds of songs they react to. But like Umu said, I'm not a classical musician and the piano bit is super cool to me. I'm also SUPER addicted to the song lol. Great review! Love you guys♡♡
I’ve been waiting for this one. Taemin is on another level. Music wise, dance wise, fashion wise, visual wise. He’s an icon. Idol of idols. A true artist.
Wrong focus but I love Sean’s nail polish
Thanks! I kind of wished I could do black and white like some of the teaser images, but I don't have white polish, so just went for black and some sparkles.
@@SWCcomposer Aww that’s so cute and thoughtful of you
It looks great on you anyways
@@SWCcomposer it looks so COOL THO OMG
if someone asked me what makes this song different, i really can't answer it but it's still hella addictive. there's something about this song that just makes me nod along in contentment
Because it's Taemin. That's it. Period. 😊
I love everything about this song. Advice sounds so weird to my ears but in a good way. I don’t really like repetitive “anything” but surprisingly I didn’t even noticed it here. For me, what elevated this song and made it addictive is the piano melody, which I love, and Taemin’s tone and vocal delivery. MV storyline, the styling, visuals and effects, lyrics, the background vocal, and choreography are, as per Taemin’s usual, superb!
Taemin is extraordinary
I can't stop listening to this song, it's SO good
I LOVE YOU TAE
I love this song so much 😭 my favorite thing about Taemin’s music is half to the most of the time, his music sounds almost dark eerie and sinister yet elegant and airy, and that’s what makes it addicting. The song is literally engulfing you by pulling you in different directions, it kills me🧍🏽♀️
When Umu explaining what Shawn said about chord right after the video, it is really helping to understand. Thank you! Good job!
My favorite duo, and i hope Sean make a comeback too with his k-pop breakdown.
Maybe the chords and tonality don't vary overmuch because mentally when you can't take advice of people around you or even your own, you are incapable of breaking out of the death circle of the situation you're in? I have a feeling that it was done on purpose.
Ha! I agree with you. Everything Taemin does has a purpose. The same way that each clips or scenes were handpicked by him to complement the lyrics and show the story he was trying to tell through the MV. And the fact that he said Advice is actually connected to Criminal and IDEA calls for a much deeper analysis of what the song is about.
And Taemin said the shirtlessness was not meant to be sexy but was there to propel the narrative. And then Minho said but it was sexy. Different strokes but something for everyone.
BEST DANCER TAEMIN
I love how Taemin involves Piano in his performances & albums. I enjoy listening to both classical and pop and seeing my favorite artist combining both is just so treat for the eyes and ears.
I was hoping you reacted to this song. The first time I listened to this I thought it was weird but somehow Taemin pulled it off. Now I can see it has a lot mainstream elements. Anyway I love it and Taemin's performance is as always crazy good. The MV is art.
umi is such a hardworking person, thank you umi for making this channel!!!
Taemin king kpop so amazing another level
FOREVER TAEMIN
In Svitzerland we say “Ohrwurm “ for this kind of Song. It is catchy- You hear it once and you can’t get it out of your brain. The repetitive 🔁without ↗️↘️ makes it easier to hum along . And voilà- it is in your brain for a long time. Since I like Taemin's voice, it's not a problem 🙂
Yessssss taemin
Omg, insert Dont call me piano part made Advice more epic LOL cant believe it
Thank you for this quick reaction ! I love this song so much ❤️ Like many people here, I listened to it a lot and I'm not tired of it ... Very special, surprising, bold. And the MV, the choreography 😍 Taemin really stands out in the K-pop world 💎
Thank you so much for this reaction!! Love it as always ❤️❤️
So much effort is put into your reactions and videos, and it shows! Thank you :)
The first time I heard this song, I couldn't wait to see it on this channel! Yay!
omfg yes thank you for making the piano cadenza performance haha it would have been sooooo perfect. and yeah i agree that the song isn't super adventurous esp considering what taemin is capable of but it's just so damn addicting!!! and i love it for that
please i was waiting for thisss as soon as i heard advice bc i know umu would love ittt
I got the notification and was like YES, I absolutely love this song and is always amazing to listen to people who actually know about music talk about this things
This channel has helped break down music and appreciate it way more.
YAY!! I was waiting for this reaction!!
i was waiting for this!!
Bruh... I LOVE where this series is at. Umu, you and the team are doing such a great job and I can see how much you're loving what you're doing and how you're doing it. It's wonderful to watch :)
Finally!!!! I've been waiting for Reacttothek's reaction because I knew they'd definitely do this!!!!!
I was waiting for your reaction to this sooooo much!
I feel the moment between the classic (piano bit) and the "hip hop" section mix very well in it and made it harmonic, which is not very common in kpop these days, and as much as it's surprising to hear taemin do these kinds of things, it's also refreshing AND relaxing at the same time, while the rap part and the dance put an aggressive tone on it, I LOVE the contrast sooo much and it might be the song of the year for me!
Yeah I was waiting for this and it came faster than I thought, thank you ! I'm addicted to that song since my first listening and I couldn't explain why. Watching your channel always helps me to understand better what I hear and why I feel like I do :)
I'm french and sometimes I'm frustrated I cannot show your channel to my friends because they can't understand english. But what can we do about it ?! Keep up the good work and thank you again !
Thanks for the always honest, entertaining and educational reactions! ☺️
WOW the cadenza insert you put in gave me goosebumps!!!
Thank you for this video, love it. ❤️❤️
The reaction that i've been waiting for!
I LOVE TAEMIN
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SINCE IT RELEASEDDDD
now that i'm used to the song i understand their point of view but when i first heard it i literally cried. something about that progression and the way those sounds were floating in the background through the entire thing just got to me. i then also proceeded watching the mv like 30 times in a row so there's probably something off with my brain but there is something about this song too
I was waiting for thisssss....
Taemin is THE ART
YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REACTION
Thank you so much for this~~~ I really love this song.
I was waiting for you to react to this since it was released
You heard my payer, thank you
I didn't realize how much I missed this channel and its unique perspective until you got to the part when you explained/demonstrated the progession.
Oh yes I was waiting for y’all to do this one
Umu you are the cutest with headphones and that hat! Thank you for this reaction and that thing I learned today and the video edit of it, cadenza! To both of you 수고했어용~
Wow the part when you combine the Advice Live and his piano performance of DCM is just mind-blowing.
Ooooh I was waiting for this! Got the notification late and I have such short time to finish a very important essay 😭 but I had to see this 😤
yesssss that's the thing... it has an addictive effect! there are no big surprises in this song but why am i so obsessed?!?!
Thank you so much for reacting! Please react to the full mini album, love you 💖💖💖💖💖
I like to watch this channel because you guys do more justice to this amazing songs than I could ever do xD
TAEMIN
Taemin👑💖👑
The bridge got stuck in my head for a solid week...the contrast between just the piano and singing going into the solid baseline and backing vocals is sooooo satisfying
Yeees, I’ve been hoping you’d react to this 🥰✨🙏🏼
finally!! I refresh 5 times a day just for this reaction!
Yasss! I waa waiting for this
Every time SM idol has comeback, I always look for your reaction. Pretty much to listen your opinion about the music it self 👍
I love how you spit and surprised yourself with it.
i am obsessed with this song, it might be my favorite release this year.
I only heard this song today and immediately thought that it sounded really interesting!! Came straight here to check if you had done a video on it cause I don't have any knowledge of music but still enjoy learning about it.
Finally... i'm waiting for dis ~
yeahhhhhhhhhh umu and sean really reacted to Advice!! thank youuu
Finally! been waiting for this since it was released! I'm also waiting for the review of shinee,s last album :(
I think this is my favorite reaction to Advice, thank you for supporting Taemin 6v6
this is easily my favorite taemin title
Ohhh finally you react to Taemin songs "advice"❤️
YESSSSSSS OMG ive been looking to this one so muchcomg
The editing is ON POINT
YOU ACTUALLY ADDED THE CADENZA OML IT SOUNDS HEAVENLY
The reaction I looked forward to!!
Music-wise this song is a piece of art, the combinations, the rhythms and aura just suit Taemin very well...
I'm subscribing because I'm not used to youtubers analyzing the music side of pop, and in this case kpop. it was cool hearing your thoughts
I like the intro piano where the chords change per beat and then in the 3rd bar they add the syncopation (also noting they went to the relative major of the key) to change the feeling and then back again to a chord per beat. (Settling down again to the minor key). High praise to the producers❤️❤️❤️❤️
I CLICKED SO FAST I LOVE YOU GUYS
