Back here after crying at Today's SHINee E.S.S.A.Y Concert.

4:34 "수고했어요" 민호 말했다 ㅠㅠ Minho whispers "You did well" 😭

this song wasn't made to trend and have 100 million views or what not, it's a song for shinee and shaowls to honour everything theyve done and jonghyun. it's a song for shinee and shawols to healthily accept what happened and to acklnowledge that shinee is always 5 and always will be and we will forever hold jjong in our hearts even if we have to keep moving on without him physically here. there's a reason this song is never performed

이제 종현이를 생각하면 눈물만 나오는 게 아니라 웃겼던 것도 생각나고, 벅차올랐던 것도 생각나고, 슬프다는 한 가지 감정만 느껴지는 게 아니라는 것이 생각보다 엄청 힘이 된다. 정말 종현이가 남겨둔 예쁜 말들이 한 편의 시가 되고 노래가 돼서 2025년의 우리에게 큰 힘이 되고 있다고 말해주고 싶어. 우리곁에 늘 함께하겠지. 알고있어. 그래도 여전히 보고싶다.

Being here, on his birthday, makes this song even sadder. I miss his voice and his whole personality. Shinee helped me through hard times, only with a few songs. All their voices are healing and I miss them as five. But they will be always 5hinee

4:35 Onew says "수고했어" which means "you did well" im crying 😭

Real credits to the director tho. The message of the music video is so beautiful.

종현아 정말 보고싶어

Jjongie always wrote songs for SHINee and now SHINee wrote a song for him...

The members were so strong to comeback so shortly after such a tragic loss I don’t think many groups would be able to do it. They’ve been so strong through all of this and it hurts me that such strength is even being demanded of them. No one should have to experience this type of loss, especially this young, in the public eye and almost 10 years into their careers. Honestly, if they didn’t return to music when they did I am not sure they would have returned at all. It feels like they never got to fully take the time they needed away from the public as though they just pushed through so much to maintain any sense of normalcy in their lives. I am so proud of them and I hope they know that Shawols are always here for them, and that we are always with Jonghyun too. Most of the time, I feel happy watching older content and don’t think much about how things had ended up, but then sometimes it just hits so randomly and it hurts so much. We are all still hurting and that’s okay, but healing doesn’t mean leaving Jonghyun behind. You don’t have to feel guilty about learning to feel better, you don’t have to inflict sadness onto your heart to prove to yourself that he meant something to you. Healing will take a long time and you may never be the same as before, but it’s a process you have to allow to begin.

Congrats Jonghyun for winning 2019 Bonsang Golden Disc Award. So happy to Shawols support ❤❤❤❤❤🧚‍♀️ Taemin and Minho accepted the award in place of their hyung with heart warming thank you speech Minho: "Firstly, thank you for giving Jonghyun hyung such a good award. To our fans, SHINee World who showed him unchanging support, I would like to say thank you to you all in place of Jonghyun hyung". Taemin went: "Please remember our Jonghyun hyung who has loved music and the stage more than anyone else till now and do remember and look over our Jonghyun hyung's music and stage in the future too." Shinin Jonghyun forever ❤❤❤❤❤🧚‍♀️

"When your tears are falling just let them shed. I wish you'll think of it as if that weight inside your heart is getting out of your body drop by drop like that." - Jonghyun

1M! Go go shawols!

"our voices will fly to where you are, they will reach you, we know it" "this is not the end of our story's page let's be together until the end" "Even though the road is difficult let's keep walking " "We miss you, we want to tell you but, that will not fill this empty heart tonight" these lyrics❤️

Some people are saying SHINee flops or that some say that they're disappointed that the views are not impressive. Here's what.. SHINee didn't make this song for views, for awards.. They made it for their lost brother. This is a song where they express their yearning and appreciation for Jonghyun. This is a song where they try to comfort themselves and the fans, where we give each other strength. I personally don't mind the views because I understand that not all Shawols are capable to watch this at the moment. It's difficult to watch the members' raw and honest expressions in this mv, and the heavy emotions behind their voice. To our 5 beloved boys, you guys did well ♥️ Let's continue to give each other strength and support. Let's be strong like how the boys are trying to for us, Shawols. Let's stay strong for our beloved 5HINee ♥️

Fact: everyone listening to this song rn is crying

I have never seen a group love each other the way that SHINee does. I'm not just talking about Kpop, but music in general. We've had boy and girl groups around forever and a day, but I have legit never seen five people love each other as fiercely as them. The fans suffered a great loss, but they lost a brother. What they lost is deeper than losing a favorite singer or labelmate. They lost a person that became a family member. People, please love each other. If you see the signs of depression, reach out and help. Ask questions, be there for someone in need, and learn about mental health. Tell your friends and family that you love them. Be a shoulder for a stranger to cry on. Thank you, SHINee, for showing us how to love.

Can you feel it? We’re connected By our hearts that are transparent Like invisible string Tell me, vow to me in the sky No matter how difficult the road, we’ll keep going When I stand again on the road we walked on together There are five overlapping hands, tears, and memories It’s so clear, I don’t want to forget, I can’t forget The pretty words you left behind Become a poem, become a song Our voices fly to where you are We know it will reach you If a star vanishes, will everything be forgotten? The precious you is in my embrace We will fill the pages of this unfinished story together till the end I say that I miss you But it won’t fill up my empty heart tonight We’re facing each other As we always do We’re still like boys who dream today The pretty words you left behind Become a poem, become a song Our voices fly to where you are We know it will reach you If a star vanishes, will everything be forgotten? The precious you is in my embrace We will fill the pages of this unfinished story together till the end May 5th, 2005 boys The bright green waves of spring That time will flow forever again It will spread The pretty words you left behind Become a poem, become a song Our voices fly to where you are We know it will reach you If a star vanishes, will everything be forgotten? The precious you is in my embrace We will fill the pages of this unfinished story together till the end

*This masterpiece makes me feel closer to them. Like they're more than just idols, they're humans like all of us and seeing this side of themselves is just so comforting, they're so strong and they give me strength to keep going. I hope they know they're not alone, there's thousand of people who love them and admire them for their courage and their beautiful souls. Thank you for being a huge inspiration and never giving up Shinee. Jonghyun is so proud of you and wants the best for you.*

For me SM really lucky to still have Shinee in their agency, because shinee have all in this industry. The best leader, the best vocal, the best fashion, the best visual, and the best dancer. They all already in 1 package, ITS SHINEE. SM need to promote them more, shinee is a rare gem, very rare. Please keep them safe SM 🙏. I love this boys very much 😌

Those who dont understand Korean like me, we really don't need to understand this mv completely. We understand the entire meaning of the song and the all the emotions sang within. We undertand when to cry, we understand what they mean. We understand shawols.

We're all crying watching this. Can you imagine how hard the members trying to hold on their tears to shoot this mv? 😖 It feels like there's a thorn in my throat. But watching this is like the members trying to say to all that have lose their loved ones, to be strong and keep going, make yourself worthy and can be proud of.

let us not cry because he is gone but let us smile because he was here

I felt like sobbing today so HERE I AM.

i think this is the first time i genuinely cried listening to a song. i can hear the pain in their voices and i think thats what made me crack. you did well shinee. you did well jonghyun. 수고했어.

The mic for Jjongㅠ.ㅠ We won't forget you our dino, 5HINee forever

when Onew says “You did good” at the end, I swear, I couldn’t control my tears, and I’m not the type that cries. I’m not a Shawol, but i have listened to them for a while. When I heard about the loss, I did get sad. I think what made me cry was to see how much they cared, and how much their fans care about them, it’s really touching. Even though this song was for Jonghyun, it reminds me of my brother. He died on March last year, so about 2 months after Jonghyun’s death. This song is beautiful, and I will support SHINee, even if they are now serving their country, I will support.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

"My voice is important. my opinions are important. other people's voices and opinions are equally important. why are there so many people who don't understand this reasoning?"ㅡKim Jonghyun

This is beautiful. It's also the most emotional SHINee song ever. I won't deny it: it was hard to watch. Why? Because it depicts perfectly how it feels to mourn. The feeling of "why is the world still spinning while my loved one is gone? does my life still have meaning after this loss?". And while your reality is spiraling out of control you keep up your daily routine because you don't know what else to do: "everything seems so meaningless now, might as well go to the gym/to work/to school etc". You go through the motions of the day and nothing feels real anymore. This video managed to describe this soul-less state very well. So it hurt a lot. Art is supposed to hurt, sometimes. We must acknowledge the pain to heal. Thank you SHINee. You work hard. We will love you forever.

shawols, let's stay strong together, like the song says, *even though the road is difficult, let's walk together*

10 years passed. it's unbelievable how it was fast, they have grown together in happiness and sadness. they are..... 5 from a boy become a best man 5 Multitalented 5 Vocals 5 Rappers 5 Visuals 5 Actors 5 Hardworking 5 Humble 5 Very soft heart 5 Models 5 Funniest 5 Dancers 5 Song writers 5 Smartest 5 Performers 5 Maker us happy and laugh 5 Everything and anything All their songs are awesome The best fandom SHINee is a born to shine the brotherhood, the family, the love not just as a group, but a true family. no matter what happen, i will see SHINee as FIVE. i'm so proud of you SHINee. i love them so much, thank you SHINee has made my life more colorful❤❤❤❤❤ 5 KINGS

May 25, 2008 13 years passed, But our boys will forever shine.

*This song now means the world to me. I can't thank Shinee enough for this. Now I have one more reason to feel like Jonghyun is still here with us.*

Wow, personally what i got from the mv: Jonghyun loves to make music (onew did that in the video), work out( taemin did that), dance (key) and minho resemble him as a hardworking person in the industry. Each of there action is base on what jonghyun love to do. And at the end he love the most is to be SHINEE so each of them will contineus for him. Also, i think that after the event that happend whrn onew taemin key and minho think of continues or not, they follow the blue moon and stand on stage again mean that they contineus to because what jonghyun had impacted on them. This is so beautiful. Jonghyun must be very happy that he had brothers that loves him and will continues his legacy.

*The fact that they include our fandom color in the music video makes it even more meaningful because through thick and thin shawols were always there to make them feel better and that won't change.*

처음 나왔을때 진짜 완곡 듣기 힘들었는데... 이제 조금은 웃으면서 들을 수 있는곡 그럼에도 여전히 보고싶다

This song. Their vocals. I'm crying tears of happiness and sadness.

*i forgot to use my tissues and my whole house is full with my tears*

After seeing that 5th microphone I couldn't stop crying.

오늘 2025년 5월25일 샤이니 데뷔 17주년이에요....평생 샤이니는 다섯명입니다 이진기 김종현 김기범 최민호 이태민 항상 응원합니다 16년차 샤월..너무 뿌듯합니다 항상 좋은노래 너무 고맙습니다♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎

I knew I would cry. I knew it. And here I am.

4:35 ‘수고했어’ (you worked hard). He really did. They all did.

*I haven't still read the lyrics, my heart will break into million pieces if I do. I'm just going to keep listening to their calming voices till I feel a bit better.*

お元気ですか？ 久しぶりに聞いて感動したよ 17周年おめでとう、いつまでも大好きだよ

Omg SHINee, now how am I gonna explain why I'm crying to my parents sitting in front of me. Thank you for the best 10 years anyone could ask for

Our page going fill again 2020 *SHINee's back back*

The beautiful thing is that I'm pretty sure we all knew what was being said before we went and looked up the lyrics.

종현이가 이 노래를 듣고 있었으면 좋겠다 그리고 마지막에 스탠딩 마이크 5개 있는거 보고 울었음 ㅠㅠ

*I'm really offended right now, who actually had the audacity to dislike this? Shinee deserves only positivity and love.*

Someone mentioned that the MV shows them after 18th, how they were surviving through it all but not really living until they found comfort in each other and Shawol (pearl aqua lights) and the end, getting up on stage again surrounded by these lights (love and comfort from people around them) representing them starting to live their lives again as Jjong would've wanted them to do. I love that and agree, they have shared how they struggle at the beginning to the point they got counseling, I also think this is they way to show us that we can go through this together and keep going even if it's hard 💕🥀🌕

The fifth microphone at the end killed me 😔

February 2021, Decided to cry here again after watch how they can perform don't call me so powerfull. So proud for these boys! They were the one who choosed to go through that hard time and they did it. I love these boys so full. their love for each other make them strong till this point. Please love them, please. cz they deserve it.

This is so beautiful. You're so strong, Shawols love you, 5hinee💜💜💜

I heard that Key said on an interview that there were people who said that Shinee was taking advantage of Jonghyun's death to become more popular. What is up with this world? Are we monsters now? This is the proof that this boys miss Jonghyun and that he was really really special to them! We all miss him and it's hard not having him by our side. This song made my heart flutter because I can't imagine how strong the other members must have been to do a comeback and continue as a group. Let's all give them support, more than we have ever did, because they need us as Humans not as Monsters who take advantage of their sensibility to hurt them even more. I love you SHINEE! Thank you for being strong and to love us so much in a way that I can't explain

It has been 2 months since they released this MV, and I’m still crying, I still feel the pain that December left us. I love SHINee since I was 15, now I’m 19 and I suffered a lot bcause of Jonghyun’s dead. Please give them the love they deserve.

종현아 태민이가 군대갔구,, 범이가 앨범냈어 엄청 멋있다?!ㅎㅎㅎ 분명 난 기범이 뮤비를 보고있었는데 네가 생각나서 들어왔어 사랑해 종현아

English lyrics for whoever wants to cry more: Can you feel it? We’re connected By our hearts that are transparent like invisible string When I stand again on the road we walked on together There are five overlapping hands, tears and memories It’s so clear, I don’t want to forget, I can’t forget The pretty words you left behind become a poem, become a song Our voices are flying, we know it’ll reach you wherever you are If a star vanishes, will everything be forgotten? I’m holding the precious you in my arms I want to fill the pages of this story that isn’t over yet Until the very end I’ll say that I miss you But it won’t fill up my empty heart tonight We’re facing each other, we’re still the same We’re still the boys who are dreaming The pretty words you left behind become a poem, become a song Our voices are flying, we know it’ll reach you wherever you are If a star vanishes, will everything be forgotten? I’m holding the precious you in my arms I want to fill the pages of this story that isn’t over yet Until the very end May 25, 2008 Boys shining brightly Like green waves of spring That time will spread and flow forever The pretty words you left behind become a poem, become a song Our voices are flying, we know it’ll reach you wherever you are If a star vanishes, will everything be forgotten? I’m holding the precious you in my arms I want to fill the pages of this story that isn’t over yet Until the very end (cr. popgasa)

3:59 the tears that I'm holding back bursted... 5HINee always and forever SHAWOLs will never forget

4:34 "You did well." I'm crying so much

김종현이 보이진 않지만 저 마이크 앞에서 멤버들 하나하나 부드럽게 쳐다보면서 누구보다 열정적으로 같이 노래 불렀을 거라 믿어

The most beautiful, sincere and meaningful song of the comeback. They said everything they needed through this song. I just need to say: thank you so much! We are crying with you and doing our best to support you, always remembering our Poet and Artist. You, SHINee, are doing a good job, too! I don't know what more to say... so... Just know that we love the 5 of you so much! Live a good life, take breaks, cry when you need to cry and smile when it's worth it. We love you, guys!

SHINee you did well ❤️

Me: It’ll be sad and emotional but I won’t cry Onew: wait 5 seconds then tell yourself that

샤이니 늦덕해서 하나씩 하나씩 따라잡으시는 분들 또 있으시나여

Lyrics - SHINee the word you left behind (our page) can you feel it? they’re connected these invisible, thread like, transparent hearts i pledge my words to that sky no matter how difficult the path, i’ll keep going when i stand again on the road we’ve walked together five hands overlapping each other, tears and memories are so clear, i don’t want to forget them i can’t forget the pretty words you left behind become a poem, become a song our voices will fly and reach the place where you are, we know if the stars disappear, would everything be forgotten? i embrace you, so precious, in my arms i want to fill in the page of this unfinished novel together until the very last i try saying “ i miss you” but this empty heart won’t fill up tonight we face each other we’re the same as ever today too, we’re just like young boys with a dream the pretty words you left behind become a poem, become a song our voices will fly and reach the place where you are, we know if the stars disappear, would everything be forgotten? i embrace you, so precious, in my arms i want to fill in the page of this unfinished novel together until the very last the boys of may 25th, 2008 the waves of green on spring days that shine so bright those days will flow on and keep spreading forever the pretty words you left behind become a poem, become a song our voices will fly and reach the place where you are, we know if the stars disappear, would everything be forgotten? i embrace you, so precious, in my arms i want to fill in the page of this unfinished novel together until the very last

So I’ve been crying non stop since watching this and I’m sure I’m not the only one. This is beautiful and the “you did well” spoken in Korean at 4:35 just makes it all the more touching. Shinee was my first kpop group ever and I’ve spent 6 years with them since. They will forever be one of my favorites and I can’t express all that they’ve done for me. I miss Jonghyun so much but Shinee is still here and I will continue supporting them to the best of my abilities. I love all five of them ❤️

4:35 "you worked hard" :-(

어제 기범이가 종현이 얘기 할 때부터 눈물나서 노래 끝날때까지 멈추질 않았다. 아직도 네가 보고싶어 종현아

I’m speechless. The symbolism in this video is so beautiful and breathtaking

EP 3 is the last chapter of *The Story of Light trilogy* and they gave us this song, from a piece of the lyric this song is about Jjong and we got to hear Jjong voice again in *Lock you down* I'm sure the remaining members want us to always remember him❤

Shawols, we may be small in number right now but I know that we are all united as one in this. This is Our Page.

그때도 그랬고 지금도 여전히 첫 멜로디부터 눈물이 나오는구나. 언제나 함께하고 있다는 말이겠지?

I love these boys with all my heart. Stay strong and keep our angel Jonghyun in our hearts forever... Shawols are here for SHINee and SHINee are here for us

사랑해 샤이니!

It is amazing that they made me cry, because I didn't understand what they were saying. I just felt the emotions. And that's the power of music

5 years now and I always come back here and watch the same videos every year. I miss you Jonghyun ♥️ You did well Angel 🌹

and they really gave us 5:10 minutes like 5 peoples 10 years im- /burst into tears/

I just looked up the english translation of the lyrics and daaamn :( I hope SM would put up an option to view this MV with english subtitles since SHINee has many international fans. The 4 boys contributed to writing the lyrics to this meaningful song dedicated to Jonghyun and its beautiful.

보고있어 종현아? 널 위해 빛내주고있어

종현이 생각 나서 왔어. 항상 듣지만 의미를 생각하지 않고 들어 이 노랜. 그냥 듣는다? 의미를 곱씹어 보며 들으면 그냥 눈물이 나와. 보고 싶고 버텨줘서 고맙고 항상 사랑해 김종현 그리고 샤이니.

Jonghyun you are loved Taemin you are loved Jinki you are loved Kibum you are loved Minho you are loved All of you, be happy, know that we will be here whatever happens. It's okay if you ever need a break, it's okay if you need more time, as long as you are all okay. Don't be scared, you will never make us angry or disappointed, we will love you. Shinee is not just the five of you, it's all of us as well. Like a family, we'll be here, *forever*

So, my theory is..each of them potray a characteristic of Jonghyun. Like Onew is a composer, Key is a dancer, Taemin is seen working out and Minho is shown passionate with his action skills and photoshoot. The emotion conveyed in this MV is indescribable. And there is this scene where there is an empty spot for Jonghyun. His characteristics need him to be the complete Jonghyun. When the members of SHINee is seen walking towards the stage which was lit up with beautiful pearl aqua green bulbs which is SHINee's fandom color and maybe it indicates that Jonghyun's characteristics are and will be always close to Shawols heart because the members felt at ease when they were there on the stage. This is just my thought. 🌸✨💕

Honestly it doesn’t matter if this will win a Song of the Year because as long as we acknowledged, love, and support this song and these boys esp JH, that would be enough. They wrote this song song for JH. Not because this song was created during their hard times we will demand (?) a song of the year. And we all do know korean award shows doesn’t work that way. But overall, this song is so amazing. I’ve been listening to this on repeat while having teary eyes because I can’t stop thinking of JH.

내가 다시 샤이니 무대를 마주할 수 있게 해준 노래

i have no words. 5hinee means so much for me (and for us as well). it’s incredible to see how strong we are and how other fandoms help us and stuff. sorry for my shitty english, but i hope that everyone is okay, that YOU ARE okay. if you are not, don’t hesitate to talk to me or someone. don’t forget that there is always someone who loves you (me eheh). *OH AND I HAVE TISSUES* ((;

This is so beautiful. My tears came out so easily...

WHO LOVES SHINee? ME ME ME ME ME until end.....

It’s almost the end of 2024, I hope our boys are doing well. I found myself here again after 6 yrs. How time flies but the memories are still here. I miss you!

This is one of the best examples of how music is a language that tells a story whether you understand the language or not.

"Our voices are flying, we know it'll reach you wherever you are." My heart breaks when I listen to this song and read the english translation. 💔 Such a beautiful song. Thank u, Shinee! I am a new fan and will be a fan for a very long time for sure.

End of an era A new chapter will begin soon

Happy 14th Anniversary dear SHINee. I love you Onew I love you Jonghyun I love you Key I love you Minho I love you Taemin Shinee always 💙💙💙💙💙

I'm not a shawol, but the hurt in this song was so real, and it doesn't take a dedicated superfan or a Korean speaker to understand it. I'm crying so much

for a second Jinki was heard very similar to Jjong and my heart quickened ❤😭

The moment the video reached the ending with the mic, i couldn't hold my tears, I'm just... I got reminded on how I miss jonghyun dearly but it doesn't hurt as before. I'm glad that Shinee are still here for us really...

문득 그런 생각이 들었어 책을 계속 읽으려면 다음 책장으로 넘어가야 하잖아. 금기어 처럼 말을 하지 못했던 분위기여서 한동안 참 마음이 아팠는데 이제는 그 시기를 잘 지나온 것 같아. 추억을 같이 나누고 공유할 수 있는 시기가 페이지를 채우는 것 처럼 자연스럽게 찾아왔으면 좋겠다. 보고싶고 수고했어

4:14 the background vocal sounds like jonghyun

I feel it A transparent mind like an invisible thread I promise to walk in the sky I will go on any hard way Looking back on the road It's so clear I do not want to forget I can forget The pretty words you left behind It becomes a poem and becomes a song Where your voices is flying We know you will reach it If the stars disappear, all will be forgotten I hold you in my arms Page of this unfinished novel I'll fill it together till the end I want to see you Empty heart tonight It's like boys dreaming today The pretty words you left behind It becomes a poem and becomes a song Where your voices is flying We know you will reach it If the stars disappear, all will be forgotten I hold you in my arms Page of this unfinished novel I'll fill it together till the end May 25, 2008 Boys The bright green waves of springtime That time is forever I'm going to spread more The pretty words you left behind It becomes a poem and becomes a song Where your voices is flying We know you will reach it If the stars disappear, all will be forgotten I hold you in my arms Page of this unfinished novel I'll fill it together till the end Page of this

*TO ANYONE WHO IS READING THIS* I MAY NOT KNOW YOU, BUT I JUST WANNA SAY THAT : YOU ARE AMAZING, YOU ARE STRONG, YOU HAVE THE POWER TO OVERCOME EVERYTHING YOU COME ACROSS.

7 years withour Jong...
