I prefer embracing the imperfections in vocals over listening to the majority of K-pop groups whose live performances often involve lip-syncing or excessive use of autotune and edits. Every mistake in their vocals makes me go "wow" and proves that they are consistently performing live. This genuine live performance is what I truly appreciate, and I love it ❤️ It's rare to find a group that delivers pure live vocals while dancing.

Thank you for reacting to this performance. Just to put a bit of context on it: I always thought their little vocal "mistakes" were due to fan screams, hard choreo and no backtracking in a full live performance. But it's also a time where they were seriously overworked, always on flights between Korea and Japan and if I remember correctly they slept like 4 hours a night. You just need to see how many albums, singles and tours they did in just 4 years of existence. They were also only 20 to 22 years old so they have matured vocally a lot since then (particularly Yunho). JYJ lawsuit for ending the slave contract happened only the year after so I think they were just exhausted which make the performance even more incredible to me. On another note: MKMF was later renammed as the MAMA if you don't know. And every year after watching the MAMA's I come back to this performance just because... You should definitely listen to the full songs of the medley: Hug (debut song), The way you are (1st album), Rising Sun (2nd album), O jung ban hap (3rd one) and Purple Line (released in 2008 before the 4th album - Mirotic). You can also react to TVXQ Killing Voice episode where the go through their whole career (even if it's just Yunho and Changmin). Changmin also did some more Rock vibe songs: you can check is live cover of X Japan - Rusty nail. It's so good. Sorry for the long comment. I'm just too happy to watch new reactors to TVXQ. 😁

Great reaction, thanks! And yes, Junsu always danced like that, he is very passionate both when dancing and singing, and that passion translated into great acting in his musicals! Jaejoong’s voice used to suffered from all their constant activities and lack of rest, so sometimes in lives he seemed a bit off. It also didn’t help that in Japan he was the main vocalist, always in charge of the choruses and always required to sing live those difficult ballads with almost no backing tracks. Also, when you put a monster of live performances like Junsu ,and also Changmin whose voice was always incredibly stable, it really became a battle to keep up vocally. At the end of their very demanding concerts, when even Changmin’s voice started to fail him a little bit, you could always count on Junsu to keep going with dancing and singing. So I think Jaejoong’a voice is a better indicator of how overworked the group was at any particular moment.

ah the fanchant!! mirotic fanchant is the most popular in kpop scene like even they don’t know tvxq or mirotic either, they know this fanchant lol😭😭

Jaejoong is not unstable in pitch, but he is singing with a singing method called vibration that intentionally makes the vocal cords tremble. Vibrations are a style often used by Korean ballad singers, and Junsu is also able to do so, depending on the shape of the vocal cords, some are possible and some are impossible. And what is unique about Jaejoong's vocals is that he sings with various singing techniques for each concept of the song. When Jaejoong does rock music as a solo activity, he sings in a singing method that does not use vibration.

"Little fatigue" is very mild to Say unfortunately, the slave contracts SM had on them was terrible. So Bad that Jaejoong, Yoochun and Junsu actually won their legal battle against SM ent. because what SM did was illegal. (I'm talking about a country where working 11/12 hours a day is perfectly legal) But that company is so powerful not Even the law could make them change... SM blacklisted JYJ from tv and radio shows. Nobody dared to go against SM. It still breaks My heart to SEE them so tired in most interviews and shows... Thats why i never stood another group from SM and i never Will.

I once went to a live presentation for tvxq and korean fans are reaaaally organized, they gave to every one attending, a paper with the fanchants on what you have to say and where you have to say it, it’s not that they practiced before hand, they just have instructions for everyone, and if there is a special event like showing banners or lights, there were paper instructions for that too and at the end it all came in sync 🤭

And yes, unfortunately even though the lyrics aren’t exactly autobiographical, the group as a whole suffered greatly from the stalker culture that robbed them of their freedom and peace. To this day, Jaejoong is still struggling with stalkers at his concerts and his home. Sadly, I imagine the same goes for Junsu and the TVXQ duo… even after 20 years!

i suggest you react to Jaejoong and Changmin duet 'Raining Men' that's just amazing

Please please react to their live performances for “Tonight” and “Love in the ice”!!!

They are royalty! for me one of the best groups of kpop ever created! Insane vocals ,they had the looks all of them handsome and tall ! , stage presence ,charisma, dance beautiful , and They can rap too! Yoonchun was a very good rapper he had an amazing voice , unfortunately SM always ruining the most iconic groups and talent as always !

Fanchants of Mirotic is a bit special,they were already known by almost all kpop fans nowadays,so no matter who sing it,audience knows how to do these fanchants eventhough they are not TVXQ's fans.

The fanchant of TVXQ is crazy good, in the fancam Cassiopeia (TVXQ fanclub) sang the whole song even rapping part, it's not fanchant anymore😂😂

These kind of fanchants were made by each group's fans,they were organized,fans would learn and memorize these fanchants before they go to concerts or any other live events,then they will do these fanchants at the right timing in the songs.

Oh and I saw that you reacting to Bolero MV, I would also recommend the live Bolero version at the Tokyo Dome. It’s one of their best vocal performances as a group! I still get chills and cry (literally performed the same month that JYJ later filed the lawsuit against SM- so there is a lot of unsaid emotions that linger in their air IMO).

Yes, that was because Junsu is a very good dancer aside from being the amazing singer he is. The boy is the full package

Jae Joong is the one who sings rock. ❤ He was sick that day.

I haven’t even finished watching the video yet, but I just wanted to say thank you for reacting to them.🥹🥲 it’s nice when the brilliance of the past is not forgotten. I don’t mean to sound dramatic, but thank you for helping keep their pre-split legacy/memory alive.❤️🎈

From what I remember, the fanchants were a sort of way to have more of an organized scream as opposed to constant screaming.

Junsu said it's more difficult to sing lower note than higher note when you dancing. The parts of background track with studio version vocals usually are chorus parts,rap parts and the whole final parts.But they still do their best to sing all parts live,just sometimes due to the choreography or they need to breath or their own conditions at that time,there may have few parts skip here and there or sing with lower volume,so we can't hear that.

영상 잘 봤습니다 허스키한 보이스를 가진 멤버는 지금까지도 아이돌 최고의 보컬이라고생각하는분들이 많습니다

Yes vampire theme. You just right about imagining the original mv.. Thanks for honest reaction. For instant, tvxq have so many genre of songs and each member have their own individual part to shine for specific songs.

I really appreciate your review, its so detailed and your musical insight is very helpful. Also greatly appreciate your praise on Max's vocals which I think is often overlooked for DB5K peformances (especially since he was so young then)

Thank you for a detail reaction!! like some people mentioned here, jaejoong intro part in mirotic actually needs vibration maybe seems little shaky but it is what the original sounds like, and no one can sing like him for that intro😂 but yeah other part jaejoong sounds shaky and struggling like in the wrong number bcs of choreo. Most of the people know that junsu and changmin are the most stable while hitting the high note in every dance performance❤

i watch so many dbsk live and what i notice is they already look tired in 2007. in 2008 the group in the peak time and that time maybe they already at the limit. but so far in any award performance, mkmf 2008 is the best best for me, runner up , mkmf 2005 when dbsk cover 'iyah' song. that whole performance is banger . rock vibe. but so sad that time jaejoong injured

Thank you for reacting tvxq🎉

As a korean fan who was like that at that time, we just repeated what they sang naturally idk how it just comes naturally lol it's kind of cheering them and how we enjoy.

Please reaction to butterfly Jaejoong one of Jaejoong masterpiece song

their "love in the ice" live performance was incredible. You should check it out

My favorit live award stage of all times❤

Ah Wrong Number a weird song and the one where Jaejoong swore he'd never, ever rap again. Lol. The dance for it is great. They are all exhausted no question - there's a behind the scenes rehearsal video and it was the middle of the night. And Max's high note in Mirotic wasn't always live and some of the other passages have a robotic quality.

Fun fact: Jaejoong was the main vocalist of TVXQ (ot5 era) :)

If you wanna check more rock song performances that Changmin has done, you can check out his Devil's Cry performance with Taeyeon and also his performance of Don't Don with Super Junior!

I think this video did not showcase their vocals enough. They have so many live performances that are far better than this :) They are monsters

No soy cantante profesional , pero si he cantado en vivo alguna veces donde tengo que bialar y 😅 no puedo hacerlo , no se como le harian ellos la verdad es que se necesita una preparacion fisica estupenda para hacer eso

Max has great rock performance in Tokyo dome

First is Yoochun

Thanks so much for appreciating Changmin's vocals! As a fan I just want to add my personal opinion that he's really caring and hardworking man who respects his craft (this also goes to Yunho, he's epitome of passion).♥ Despite that Changmin always prioritizes group releases, he really has great solo discography. Sadly not many knows about his japanese songs and mention only korean.

You did a great job. TVXQ has made a come back with members Max and Yunho. If you want to hear something amazing look at TVQX Killing Voice and also their 2023 performance at the MAMA with Riize. You will love it❤

As a LYRICIST You should definetly check BTS songs. They write and produce most of their songs. They talk about social injustice, mental health, prejudice, they are beautiful, specially the rap line have amazing songs...I have so many to recomend: N.O. where they talk about the pressure of being number one. SIlver spoon is another one i love, there are vids with explanation by a korean so we can really understand them. Also: Outro: tear, never mind, no more dreams (debut song), black swan (is about loosing their passion for music) Answer love myself, fake love, 13430 (about pluto that now is not clssified as a planet anymore), mic drop (to there haters) So many i cant remember them all right now...

so fanchants were basically a discussion between the fans (the artists also included most of the time) and it was discussed on a platform like fanclub/fancafe. fyi, the fancafe (official membership) TVXQ had back then in 2009 broke the guiness world record to be the biggest fandom in the world with more than 800.000 members 😂 with no internet lol

i suggest you react to Jaejoong and Changmin duet 'Raining Men' that's just amazing
