I wanna share my story here about what recently happened to me. I was a few days ago at a medical center in the waiting area, playing SM super Star Onew’s blue, I made sure the sound was low, but this old lady next heard it and once I finished she told me this in spanish: “ What a beautiful song that was, what a beautiful voice that boy has, could you play it again? “ I was speechless I of course played the song once again for her. Its beautiful how music can transcend any language barrier we may have. You only need to feel and let that message transmit, Jinki DID THAT. 💗

Video Analysis: (The blind folded people:) Everyone has their own perception of you of how they see you, your family, your significant other, or his fans. But they don't see him and judge him for who he really is. They see him through a blindfold, so they never see the true him, just what they want to see or who he presents to them (The shooting star + Reflection: ) The shooting star is most likely himself and who he presents to the world, in the beginning of the music video their is only one shooting star crystal but 5 different reflections, meaning that even though their is only one of him he always presents different personas of himself but never his true self. At the end of the video when he puts the shooting star in front of the mirror their is no reflection, meaning that he's accepting and wanting to show his true self. Alternatively you can read it as the five shinee members all being separate people but in the end when their is just one shooting star we understand that shinee is one and is strongest shining as one. (The Rose:) The flower itself is in tact but there are noticeable petals that have died underneath. Also it is all encased in a glass box. symbolizing fragility and life and how even though there are dead petals their is new life in the strong white rose. (The color White:) White symbolizes purity illumination and new beginnings. We see this color on the Rose, the clouds, the fish, the people, on Onew himself (The Fish in the balloon:) Correct me if I'm wrong but those fish look like white halfmoon betta fish known to be aggressive when with another fish. They fight for dominance. This could mean that even though they look calm, the two sides of himself are constantly fighting each other, one appearing more than the other. They are also fragile though as the home that they know and live in could pop at any second, showing how unstable this lifestyle constantly battling yourself is. (The water:) Water symbolizes purity and a source of life, renewal and transformation. Just before he grabs the shooting star it becomes one single shooting star in the reflection he drips water from his hands meaning he himself is having an internal transformation. (The rundown house:) In dreams a house can symbolize yourself so a rundown house symbolizes that you aren't taking care of yourself. For Onew he is focusing so much on his outer appearance as Onew and how he needs to present himself in public in front of fans family talkshows that he's neglecting himself and who he is. (The lyrics:) Overall I think he is saying their is beauty in being alone and taking sometime for yourself but at the same time being alone for too long can feel sad as you self reflect and start to nitpick and judge all the parts your unsatisfied with about yourself. Their is solace in separating yourself from other to know who you truly are but a sense of sadness when you look at yourself and don't know who you are because you spend so much time being someone for other people that when no one's there its hard to understand who you are. It's like the two sides of coin, being alone can be good but it also has its down sides but overall its calming and comforting. Anways this is just a shawol trying to analyze lol! let me know what you guys think! I"m so happy for Onew!! and Shinee! ANd my ONKEY feels are dying because they both had back to back debuts so I'm living!! haha! love the MV so much!

No matter how much I watch the MV and listen to the song, I am always amazed every single time by the Vocal, Voice, philosophical deep look and personal history, mysticism... this is really a Masterpiece!

BEST VOICE OF THE WHOLE INDUSTRY.

we stan a vocalist.

It’s incredible how every member of SHINee has his own color...totally different from each other...then, when they perform like SHINee they become in a wonderful harmony like no other group...

no one talks about this Album enough.

I’m still here. This is art and i hope in the future Onew can sing this live with an orchestra

We dont need million views We dont need to be trending We dont need to be in no 1 in music chart (no2 is enough tho heheh) Onew and his *voice* is enough to capture our souls and be no1 in our hearts

The way Onew expresses his emotions while singing is truly unique, which no artist can replicate. Jonghyun would be proud

Onew I’m so sorry I haven’t been paying enough attention to your work but now I see you and I’m NOT taking my eyes off you. Thank you so much for this

뭐랄까... 케이팝보다는 뮤지컬 넘버같은 웅장함이다...

His singing feels like he is telling a story, and MV itself represents things which he goes through till now. SHINee is 5 diamonds, and in the end, they become one, the brightest diamond ever 💎💎💎

I don’t listen to this song as often as I should, because there’s something so sad in this melody, so heartbreaking in Jinki’s voice that it brings tears to my eyes every time. But sometimes there are days like today, when I miss him so much that even crying is better then not listening to his angelic voice. Jinki, please, come back quickly.

I miss Onew. His voice is truly special and really bring out the ultimate signature of SHINee vocals. Onew and Jonghyun are truly bless with one of a kind vocal color❤ Onew hiatus take longer than i thought, i hope he get a proper rest and healthier, hopefully i can see him with SHINee before the end of 2023 🙏🏻

Such ballads and slow Songs will remain. They will remain much longer then the smash-hits. Because this soft Songs calm down and comfort the soul and that's what humans need the most ...

Am I the only one that sees something so special in Onew, that not a lot have? It seems like he learned the experience of life and understand himself and the world well. He is strong, because he is mature enough to learn from his problems and grow with it. It’s hard to explain, but I feel like he is an old soul. I feel like I could have deep conversations about life and he will be empathetic enough to understand it all. Update : Wow! 300 likes? Thank you!! I’m so thankful that all of you understand what I say! We are such a great community of MVPs for our Onew. You all deserve peace, love and happiness. Keep reaching your goals & dreams and be kind to yourself :) love u all

I like how diverse the concepts of different SHINee members but they are united in diversity. Edit: Wow thank you for the likes, Shawols and non-Shawols. Indeed, we stan a very talented group ❤️

Just listening again and again. Can't help it. Thank you so much. Unique voice and interpretation.

THIS is ART.

I was very shook SHINee has very different vocal from any other boy group . Like they have some chemistry in their voice Very unique . Love it

LYRICS : Blue light, because you resemble me You’re always rolling like the waves When my foot touches the bottom of the end inside of you I breathe out and float up again In this silent moment I feel everything about me I understand the joy of loneliness Blue night The thing that’s calling me from far away, Is it light or darkness? The sea that sparkled during the day today Is pitch dark in this night But if I know the path I must take There’s nothing for me to fear In this silent moment I feel everything about me I understand the joy of loneliness Blue night The thing that’s calling me from far away, Is it light or darkness? I love the pain of youth and those silences For them to bloom again In this silent moment I feel everything about me I understand the joy of loneliness Blue night What I caught in my lean hands Is it light or darkness?

Onew with unforgettable voice that melt our hearts!

Happy birthday, Lee Jinki 🎂🎊🎊 #TODAY_IS_ONEWDAY

This is a beautiful song and if the translations I read were correct this is about the duality of emotions. This is a difficult concept to understand especially when hard times come upon us that we can feel joy at the same time we are in the midst of the pain. If we can embrace all our emotions then the fear will not engulf us. Emotions like anger, fear and sadness are not bad and like joy and happiness help us make sense of why and how we are to travel in this life. I didn't understand the duality of emotions until I was in my 50s when I separated from my ex husband and then my mom passed away soon after. One day when I had a happy moment I realized that happiness and sadness can coexist at the same time. This feeling of two emotions inside me lightened my burden. For someone who has had chronic depression on and off my whole it was blessing to come to this realization. I"m glad that Onew understands this at an early age because it will serve him well. Thank you Onew.

Wow, his voice is so powerful! I am so proud to be a Shawol. Onew, I love you, SHINee, I love you.

Happy 5th anniversary. Thank you for voice album and for singing beautifully. You are my favorite voice, my singer, the best artist of my life

Unforgettable. Miss you Jinki. Keep well.

Musically this song is mastepiece, one of the best ballads I've ever heard in K-Pop like I'm almost crying how Jinki can convey the emotion through his operatic ballad song even I dunno what Jinki sings because I can't speak Korean.

0:53 Four Diamond Shining Bright💖💎 Lee Jinki💎 Kim Kibum 💎 Choi Minho💎 Lee Taemin💎 And One Diamond💎 Shining💖 Bright in The Sky🌃 *Kim Jonghyun* 💎

I need a live full performance of this song

뭔가 온유의 딥하고 어둡고 우울한 부분을 본 느낌....케이팝이라기 보단 뮤지컬 같다

This song can be like some ost of a drama . When u listen to it, it just makes u wanna close ur eyes to listen, but also scared that u will actually miss some things in the mv. It's really really awesome. Hwaiting!!

Who else got goosebumps listening to the whole song?? My god Edit: This is the most likes I've ever gotten on a single comment.. thank you 306 people

We all miss you so much

입덕해서 블루 처음들었을때 요즘 나오는 가요들에서 찾기 힘든 창법이나 곡 스타일이라 많이 생소하고 왜 이런 침침한(?)곡을...ㅋㅋㅋ 타이틀로 했을까 의문이었는데 그냥 너무 좋다 온유야 ㅜㅜ 뮤지컬영상들을 봐서 그런가 너무 귓고막 시원시원하고 처절하고 막 그럼.. 왜이러케 잘불러 취향까지 뒤집어버리는 너란사람

I am really stunned .I feel like i have never heard a song like this ever in anywhere let alone in kpop.What has Lee Jinki done. I am totally shocked.

wow jinki voice topped 1 in itunes 20 countries worldwide itunes charts. congratulations.

Amazing... Onew you must come back soon

Miss you so much

I can't even put into words how mesmerizing and magnificent this video is. The emotion in this song, the emptiness throughout the video, all the aesthetics, his voice alone, I couldn't even think watching this video. It literally froze me. I expect nothing less from Onew, leader of SHINee. Omg, this is such a gift.

After five or more times watching, here’s my impression on the symbolism embedded in the video: Three fish: his band mates, whom he cares for and watches after. One white rose, preserved forever in a crystal case, on what looks like ashes: Jonghyun’s soul after leaving this world. The figure he sees in the distance: himself. He is brought to face himself. Perhaps that’s what makes him discover the “joy in loneliness “, as the lyrics say. The couple, the family, the people in blindfold: society, not seeing him and his true self. Then judging him, making him feel small. The blue light comes to him to break this delusion and reveal to him and everyone the truth: Shinee must go on. He comes back home, returns the blue stone to its rightful place, and follows the light’s trajectory with his ever watchful eye. The eye of the one chosen to protect Shinee. 💙💙💙💙💙 I’m sure there are so many more symbols (the water, the thunder, his sleeves)... but I guess I’ll leave it at that.

I miss you ❤

Onew i miss you. I hope lee jinki day is the happiest today yet. Get well soon leadernim, we miss you. How i wish he can comeback with member before 2023 end 🥲

Onew blue Eng lyrics : You are like me. It ‘s always like a wave. If you hit your foot on the bottom end of your inside. Breathe out and come back up. serene. At this moment I feel everything. I know the joy of solitude. Blue night. Calling me away. Is it light or dark? The sea that shines in the daytime. This night is as dark as black. But if you know my way. There is nothing to fear. serene. At this moment I feel everything. I know the joy of solitude. Blue night. Calling me away. Is it light or dark? I love the pain of youth and its silence. To bloom again. serene. At this moment I feel everything. I know the joy of solitude. Blue night. What was caught in lean hands. Is it light or dark?

I really want to know the meaning behind this song and mv. It looks so deep

Happy 5th anniversary to soloist Onew🎉 Thank you for gifting the world with so many wonderful songs so far. Will be waiting eagerly to listen to your angelic voice once again❤

Blue Night , that's Jonghyun's radio . Missing him so deeply .SHINee is really the best vocalist boysband in century. This is Lee Jinki's true VOICE 💙💙💙💙💙

Onew is an effortlessly amazing singer. He doesn't have to scream, doesn't need to put all his power, just sings calmly, coolly, easily, it always turns out good. Only a few singers have this quality. But for this song I feel he does put his best, all efforts he has, like never before, as if it's his last time singing. It's just like what he said "a gift" for his fans, he prepared it carefully, thoughtfully, and it came out so beautiful. Thank you, uri leader onew. 😊😘

Need the full version of this masterpiece in concert

Time flies. Happy Anniversary to this ICONIC album.

We are waiting leader *2020 SHINee 's back*

My take on the symbolism in the video- The first shot is a reverse take where we see the weathered things turn back to their old selves. Onew wakes up in this house. It probably represents that this is where he belongs. The diamond in all clarity reflects SHINee as a whole. The five mirrors are for each member. We can also see that the diamond is quite clear. Next up onew takes the diamond and goes outside. It represents how he, as the leader holds responsibility for the whole group. The blindfolded people show how he was judged blindly when he was falsely accused in the sexual assault case. And it shows how it's just two people and then it goes up to four and once again there's a group of people shown looking at him through blindfolded eyes. It symbolises how the public failed to see the whole picture. Also the increasing people shows the increased hate he got from outside and his own fandom. Then he sees himself all alone on the horizon. It shows how lonely he felt with all the people judging him blindly. But then the other self disappears and onew finds his own hands drenched in water and then he turns around to see these giant human figures staring down at him. It shows how small and overwhelmed he felt surrounded by all the hate and wrong perception of the public towards him. In the end we have the shooting star collide with the diamond. It shows how Jjong left a part of himself and how his light will always shine through SHINee. Onew looks at the diamond and then looks at the small house he woke up in. This means that he realised that he needs to go back to where he belongs and bring the diamond back to its original place hence carry on with SHINee. When he enters the house, it's quite messy which shows all the troubles SHINee went through as a group. But the diamond now shines even brighter and he places it back in its original place. Also one of the mirrors is really foggy ( Jjong) and cannot reflect back the diamond. This shows how the mirror is still a part of the set up but it's unable to reflect the diamond anymore. Which possibly shows how Jjong is there in spirit if not physically for us to see. It's just what I think that the video represents it can mean something else too but there's surely references of Jjong and SHINee. Also the clouds reflect purple AND pearl aqua colour.

온유는 언제 들어도 음색이 미쳤다🐰🩵

We miss you Jinki ❤

One of the most amazing voices in Korea, for real. I'm so happy they finally gave him a solo. Such a great singer and human being. Love from Mexico, always supporting SHINee.

I love onews voice so much. He's vocal is so soothing to the ears. And so harmonic. I think he has one of the most beautiful voices in the music industry in the world not only on kpop

Even now, in 2023, it's still mesmerising... ✨

i miss you ♥

I will miss your voice, I will miss your smile, I will miss your sangtae moments, I will miss your goofy and humble personality, I will miss your unexpected updates on instagram, I will miss your presence with the other SHINee members and I just will miss everything about you. Serve well and stay healthy, Jinki. You did amazing well. I am proud of you, leader. All these songs will serve its purpose for I will be needing comfort from you until you can come back. I will wait for you till then. 💙💙💙💙💙

I'm so proud of Onew,he just keep getting better not only as a singer, but also as a person. I hope he knows he is loved by many people and that we will never let him alone. The feelings of the past December, are totally coming back,but now are also filled with peace and unconditional love. We will be waiting for you Onew 🙌💕. Thanks for the gift, we will treasure it well. Forever Onew, Forever five, Forever 5HINee 💕

waiting for you Onew ♡ ♡

Happy birthday to VOICE!

Onew's vocal is so underrated, SM should have make his solo debut long time ago.

Shawols let's increase the viws for "Blue" as a gift for Onew. My ult bias is coming back soon

I love his music. This is an underrated gem

my blue boy, love you forever

I think that nowadays, people are really into more pop music and dance music but fail to appreciate simplistic, slow, calming music with just a simple piano and other beautiful classical instruments, sang with such emotion. Onew deserves so much recognition for this masterpiece, as do the another Shinee members as well for their solo songs ,especially since they have gone through SO much over the 10 years. LOVE YOU JINKI! GREAT JOB FROM OUR AMAZING LEADER

His voice, just his voice, can make me cry

Happy birthday jinki! ♡

He is brilliant

ONEW BLUE ENGLISH TRANSLATION Blue light, you resemble me You keep rising and falling like water When my feet reach the bottom inside you I let my breath out and rise up again This quiet moment, I feel everything of me I see the joy of solitude This blue night, something calls me from afar Is it light or is it darkness? The ocean that sparkled during the day Gleams pitch black tonight But if I know my way I have nothing to fear This quiet moment, I feel everything of me I see the joy of solitude This blue night, something calls me from afar Is it light or is it darkness? I love the aches of youth and those silences Because they will blossom again This quiet moment, I feel everything of me I see the joy of solitude This blue night, something came into my frail hands Is it light or is it darkness?

Talented artistry should not be measured by how many views it has, how many fans it garners, how high it charts. It should be appreciated by those who understands the true meaning and feels impacted by it.

代々木のソロコンサートで、アカペラで、オニュさんがBLUEをリクエストで歌ってくれました。本当に素晴らしかった。 一瞬、その時間、会場の空気が止まったようでした。 今度、コンサートで最初から最後まで歌ってくださいね。

And I miss you 💙

I'm amazed of how the Onew tells this story. The shating star, the people, the home, looking up to the skies. It seems to me that when you feel so small, there's a home you can shield on and someone is giving a light to the lonely heart.

Did anyone receive extreme chills from this music video?! Definitely exceeded my expectations!!!

Absolutely breathtaking!

My precious leader, I love you

WE HAVE BEEN WAITINH FOR THIS SOLO DEBUT SO U GUYS BETTER NOT LET THIS FLOP On the side note, *i've been listening to jinki's voice for almost 8 years and it still doesn't fail to amaze me how beautiful his voice is*

this is such a beautiful song and im so glad hes got a solo because i think this song really does capture his artistic ability and his talent. When i first saw this i felt like when i watched him singing other songs in a solo act. His voice is so soft yet powerful when he sings and i think his voice is really unique. Can i just say how much this song suits him aswell? I feel like every single solo album for shinee, each members albums are so distinct anf unique and it perfectly fitd each member. They all have such unique styles each and it really does suit and fit them so well that i cant just put ut in words. Anyhow, this is so beautiful and im really excited because he can show off to everyone his talents 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

I normally don't comment on the video but this song is so underrated. The voice, the piano, everything about it is just amazing. I got shivers..

This song reminds me the people i love and passed away. when I hear it tears fall.

You have work hard for this past few years as a leader, a member, a friend, a big brother. We will waiting for your return, make sure you eat and sleep well. Im pretty sure your Shawol will take care of the rest of members while you are not with them. Your dongsaengs will do well to make you and group name proud and keep on shining

Our beautiful boy ❤️😪 jonghyun would be so proud 🙏

볼때마다 마음이 아림. 난 네가 행복했으면 좋겠어. 아주 잔잔하고 평온한 하루하루를 보냈으면 항상 바라고 있어. 힘든 날도 있겠지만 그래도 웃는 날이 조금 더 많았으면 좋겠다.

When he finally gets that Korea solo concert and opens it with this song... it's over for me I fear

I don't know what else to say. This is just plain beautiful. He could promote this song just by standing and singing in the middle of the stage that I would still see it as one of the best performances ever. I just want to hear his voice and his emotion through this song LIVE.

I don't know the meaning of the lyrics as of now but I'm still soo... _touched_ for some reason. *Onews impact*

Happy 5th anniversary!!

Happy birthday, my sunshine

if you have extra time, please listen to his voice album, it’s really good 😩 (mostly ballad) it’s not your ordinary kpop songs that is edm rnb pop etc. it’s good to listen in a calm environment and rainy weather. that album is so specialto him and shawols. so i truly recommend

*Onew's voice is Unique. Nobody can replace him*

como te extrañamos onew ❤

I wanna cry😭

Translation: Blue light, you and I are alike Surging unceasingly like the waves As my feet graze your depths I exhale and rise again I feel everything in this serene moment I know the pleasure of solitude Blue night Is it light or is it darkness That calls to me from afar The ocean that glimmered in the day Is pitch dark in the night But if I know the path that I must take There is nothing to fear I feel everything in this serene moment I know the pleasure of solitude Blue night Is it light or is it darkness That calls to me from afar I love the agonies of youth and the silences To bloom once again I feel everything in this serene moment I know the pleasure of solitude Blue night Is it light or is it darkness That I hold in my wasted hand === Will update this thread with my translations for the rest of his songs! :)

Its been so long since I've heard Onew sing like this.... Absolutely soul touching.

I got addicted to this song... Out of all Shinee members Onew is the last i discovered. But he's the best... I truly love his voice... He gives me the goosebumps

Happy anniversary my love, thank you for the gift that warms my heart.

onew, take care of yourself. we will wait for two years, anything for you 💙
