We will definitely need to get to that one too. That MV is just gorgeous! Taemin is such ART that all the theatricality comes off very well, not forced or awkward at all.
You are very sweet girls! I really love SHINee and TAEMIN especially. I love his Japanese songs, especially Sayonara Hitori, Flame of Love, Under My Skin. He is an amazing unique artist and a precious person ❤ Thank you very much for making such wonderful reactions and introducing people to Taemin’s work!
Taemin's "Flame of Love" is telling a story of love and passion. As Es explained, most interpret it as Taemin and the girl were in a car accident in this MV and the girl died. I think Taemin was so distraught that he was incarnated as a phoenix in order to use the phoenix's powers to bring her back to life. As you might know, phoenix are mythical birds that have healing powers, etc. But as we see in the MV, as soon as she was brought back to life, the price Taemin had to pay was with his soul and he traded places with her, where he was forced to wait for her until their souls meet up again after death. That's why when we see her hug Taemin we see his soul leave his body and he is wearing that white outfit, which is supposed to be a death shroud, as he crosses over into the afterlife to wait for her to join him. Taemin gave up his life to allow her to live -- he made the ultimate sacrifice for love. His "Flame of Love" burned so brightly and passionately that he was willing to give up everything to have her live. In the end we see their souls meet again to spend eternity together. "Flame of Love" is another one of Taemin's Japanese tracks that is true art. It's one of the most beautiful MVs. Even though this choreography was complex, I am sure it was no problem for him, after all he is one of THE BEST dancers in the industry. LOL As Es mentioned, this was another one of his songs that was choreographed by Sugawara Koharu who also was the choreographer for "Sayonara Hitori"and was featured in Taemin's "Move" MV, among others.
Honestly, everytime I see a new Koharu choreo by Taemin I fangirl her a bit harder too. Plus she is such a sweetheart, everytime she and Taemin interact it's just adorable friendship.
The story in this MV is that Taemin and his love were in a car accident that ended at the bottom of the lake, he survived but she didn't. his grief and love for her were so great that he turned into a phoenix, he then used his new powers to bring her back to life in exchange for his own life. he then waits for her in the afterlife for her to join him (hopefully after a long happy life..).

Theatrical Taemin is the best Taemin! My favorite song from Japanese Taemin is Under My Skin. The mv is a visual feast.

Thank you so much! I feel like Taemin is on artist I consider myself lucky to live at the same time as. Therefore I need to share the art!

Ah, turning into a phoenix himself, I like that!
