As you may know, "Atlantis" is a mythical city that is part of a story within Greek mythology, referring to the Lost City of Atlantis. The story of Atlantis is most often depicted as a utopian society on an island that became submerged and lost in the middle of the ocean. SHINee's MV is referencing the lost city of Atlantis, so it's supposed to look like they are visiting Atlantis at the bottom of the sea. The whole MV is a reference to the story of Atlantis, which is why you see them selling seafood and why they are underwater, etc. As I interpret the MV, the convenience store is a cover for the fact that it sits on top of a portal to the city of Atlantis. To the average person, the store just looks like a regular store, but if you are in on the secret you know that if you head to the storage room or basement, etc. you will find a magical elevator/submarine that will take you to "Atlantis." I think that move in the choreography where Key and Minho make the circle is them gathering all their power and love and they are blasting it all to the fans (Shawols) or they are sending all their love to the girl who they are singing about in the song, etc. Like a superhero who is summoning all their powers. Because the SHINee members are sort of supposed to have power as the keepers of the portal to "Atlantis," etc. Plus, if I had to guess it also might be something linking SHINee to SM's Universe. As an SM Entertainment group, most of SM's groups' storylines are connected in some way and they are all part of one big story. Because Taemin is also a member of SuperM -- the Kpop industry's very first supergroup -- which is made up of members from 4 of SM's most popular male Kpop groups -- EXO, Taemin/SHINee, NCT and WayV -- I'm pretty sure SM is using the storylines within SHINee's most recent MVs to connect SHINee to EXO's/SuperM's storyline. Within SuperM's storyline the members of SuperM are supposed to be coming together to help EXO fight the Red Force and to prevent or stop the Red Force from corrupting and taking over the world, etc. As "The Avengers," SuperM is taking the "best" members from each of SM's groups and joining forces to take down the Red Force. And just like how the movies "Avengers Identity War" and "Avengers Endgame" eventually had each of the Marvel Avengers members recruiting their whole crew to help in the fight, I think SM is setting it up so that all of its groups' members will eventually be brought into the fight. So, because of this, I think people need to pay attention to all of the storylines with all of SM's groups, because I think at least all of SM's third generation groups' MVs and storylines -- and probably even now their 4th gen groups -- are being designed to connect stories and plots. Each group has their own individual storyline and concept, but when you put them all together, there are threads of connection between the groups. And that includes SuperM, EXO, Red Velvet, NCT/WayV, aespa, and maybe even Taemin's solo work, and possibly even SHINee. Even though SHINee are a second generation Kpop group, they actually fit within the age group of third generation groups, so they sort of bridge that gap between 2nd and 3rd gen. And yet again, the outfits SHINee are wearing in this "Atlantis" are chosen and designed by Key.
You should check out the behind the scenes MV shoot for "Atlantis", th-cam.com/video/jn6qkSNro9A/w-d-xo.html, to really see how detailed everything in the MV was. Fun fact: Although all the aqua blue you see in this MV is supposed to represent water and the city of Atlantis, because SHINee's fan color is pearl aqua, all the aqua blue and green colors you see in the MV also represent SHINee as a group and their connection to their fans. Also, SHINee will forever be a group of 5, so, they always make sure to include Jonghyun, in everything they do. So, if you notice the MNet date in the bottom left corner in the opening scene of the MV, it says April 8, which is Jonghyun's birthday. And if you pay attention to the choreography when the members put their arms on each others' shoulders, you see Taemin stretches his arm out as if he is resting it on an invisible person next to him, which is thought to be a nod to the fact that this is where Jonghyun would be, and even in other parts of the choreography they leave a wide gap in the middle which fans also think was done as a reference to Jonghyun's spot in the group. Onew is known for the fact that he can hold super long notes. If you were impress with his long high note in "Atlantis," just wait until you see his cover performance of the song "Friend" he did in concert years ago. th-cam.com/video/l5wJDyko5z8/w-d-xo.html He literally broke the record for the longest held note without changing tone or pitch, at 40+ seconds, just because he could. That is why he is one of the absolute best vocalists in Kpop. And that is why, even as a rookie, he was a mentor and vocal coach to a lot of SM's trainees, such as several of the members of EXO, etc. Yes, all the members of SHINee have amazing high note abilities. Even Minho, who is the main rapper and has the deepest voice out of all of them, has been known to hit some impressive high notes on occasion. That is what makes SHINee so outstanding and why they are so highly respected in the industry. They are idols' idols and legends of legends for a reason.
Thanks for your reaction! This song is tight! I sure hope that you also react to SHINee's Code -- there are a number of live performance videos. I like it best from the recent album! Also, I hope you react to SHINee's live cover of IU's "Dear Name" on IU's Palette. Onew slays - what a wonderful voice!
This is a superb mv - the theme, the wonderful orange and blue colours, the choreo, the outfits, all the little decorative touches, the spaces made for Jonghyun. As for the song, I felt a bit like Steve when I first heard it, but after playing it a number of times I'm now in John's camp and I love it. Those vocals!! I think when you hear it a few more times Steve you will increase your 4 & a half to a 5!! Anyway, both songs are a 5 for me. And yes, it's so good to have SHINee back.
@@monicahernandeza8645 most people do like Atlantis better... But the ones who like don t call me better are just more vocal about it, they are usually younger people already fan of 3rd or 4th generations. Fans of NCT or EXO (and by extension SuperM) for the most part are the one liking don t call me more....
it’s not unpopular, actually a lot of shawols like atlantis better and don’t like don’t call me but anyways, i like both, they’re both shinee so i love them equally.

I love both! We get to jam to 2 different vibes

@@TaeminnieLee i don't know because the other people don't think the same way than us
