thoughts on taemin’s first coachella stage 🔥
he did all of this without an agency
taemin is always locked in but he stepped it up five notches there
he’s the most talked about act on social media as we speak. taemin’s reach is incredible istg
G-U-I-L-T-Y! the crowd singing along!!
it’s a miracle that he did not injure himself. that choreography load was straight up relentless. does he instantly self-heal when he pulls a muscle? guess that proves he’s the messiah of k-pop
and yes that one cemented his status as the best dancer by far. those were moves so fast and complex i could not comprehend them???
six new songs. with six new choreographies. that’s productivity. he’s forward-thinking i love it, that’s trusting the audience (who were without a doubt 60-70% shawols by the fan chants lmaoo)
it must have been super reassuring to hear that from his perspective
i’ve been around long enough to see e.g. CL at the olympics, this was also a career-defining moment.
i still don’t get how he’s only the first korean male solo artist on this stage. yes groups are a safe bank but big names like him pull huge hype too
taemin knows how to do a hot concept without being crude and that’s an art
i was a bit annoyed by the oversized tuxedo blocking his movements but other than that. everything went well
the overall quality of his programme. i am still stunned
the dancer shoutout at the end!
the way i knew we can rely on his guitarist to bring the house down. taemin’s live band is consistently amazing.
knowing he does way longer shows i bet he was giddy and still energetic like crazy as soon it was over
i guess “why didn’t they get taemin for a stage earlier, he’s been well-known and in demand for so long” is a valid question. but the point in time also felt right now that he left BPM. and he was ready and hungry artistically.
so looking forward to his second performance oh my god
i hope we get criminal, danger, and the rizzness as comedic relief lmaoo, he has so many gems he can perform
