I always thought Testa and Shinee were simply not a good match. He’s too robotic and Shinee is, well, not? I like the lighter, more flowing choreographies better too.
youholdthewater said: this. also i notice ppl tend to react this way when a boy group choreo (shinee especially, perhaps?) ISN’T all aggressive/in ur face/powerful/complex because apparently that = cool/masculine. but laidback/subtle stuff = not trying hard enough.
that and I think ppl tent to equate aggressive and sharp movements with quality as well somehow. When keeping the tension up while being graceful or generally “flowy” requires a lot of skill...
etothevictory said: Yesss I love their more fluid choreo. Ian did a great job and I also love Rino’s work. They seem to give more attention to minute/subtle details in their work
There is so many small parts in view that stand out. And I think there more live performances we get the more we will notice because of course there is limited camera time for each member and at some points they all do something different from each other and there is no way to see it all in one performance.
