I cried a lot. Seeing Taemin crying for his best friend, you can see how proud and happy seing his best friend performing on stage. #theyareforreal 😢😢👌👌❤❤
Nini Bear887 Yeah they all trained together and if I remember correctly Timoteo was rumored to debut with Taemin in SHINee but it didn’t happen and later with Kai in EXO but that also didn’t happen so afterwards he left SM. It’s sad but at least they’re still best friends and have a group of friends where they can go on vacation together 😊
sweetchimmy - yeah I remember kai saying the same. he said he thought since taemin debuted earlier he would forget him. but next day taemin came looking for him to practice dance together so he felt really happy.( I really love how sweet taemin is.) 💖
That's a true star !! one who hasn't gotten so big that he remembers to reach back and help someone else up, I hope his friend remembers to do the same !! TAEMIN ALL HEART AND TALENT!!
@@sheena4598 I really wish to be a friend like Timoteo! He didn't get jealous of them but instead continued supporting them while chasing his dream! I respect
Nurul Syuhadah: the * in the word stand for "s" and maybe because it seems to blunt to write it out he/she replaced the first "s" with a "*" another word couldhave been used would be "butt" etc.... hope this helps :)
hellu it's me it’s all luck. Sort of like winning the lottery. Success in other areas is like that too. Financial investing, becoming a top manager, etc
One of the things I want in my life is to have someone that I can have a friendship like Taemin and Timoteo, 11 years of pure and understanding friendship.
Yeah watching SHINee made me realize how beautiful and meaningful long-term friendships are and we would all be better to have those things in our lives. I hope you get your hearts desire and for those who don't have it keep searching❤️
Explore the wonders Oh yes, having a friend like that is a pure treasure. I am super lucky to have 3 best friends - we’ve known and supported each other for ages (more than 25 years) so I know perfectly the value of such close friendship. I sincerely hope you’ll find your best friend!
He was performing on Kai's song who is his bestiee and being judged by taemin who is his other bestiee.... Most wonderful thing in the world is friendship...
Ruby Rz if ALL people know about their relationship and really supported them in the first place they wouldn't have to come for a survival programm TWICE. Please don't take advantage of our fandom who is doing our job supporting them as HOTSHOT and their friendship to doubt their hardwork and hardship all HOTSHOT members are going through.
Mary Le no i mean hard work yes he did really hard but not to mention he did have that friend connection as one of the way to get through.. no worry he is awesome the way they are, just in my eyes that what i thought.. i am a fan of taehyun as well,
Ruby Rz I agree. The fact that Taemin was the mentor in this program might have helped him to be casted. I'm not a fan of Hotshot but it's sad seeing them like that. I mean Jimin, Kai, Taemin are among the most successful idols nowdays, therefore seeing your friends achieving that goal must be very hard. Also judging his friend must be very unpleasant and uncomfortable for Taeminnie as well
Taemin rarely cries. And when I saw this clip few years ago. I got really shock, shawols knew timoteo and how close he is to taemin. We understand why he cried like that. He always promotes hotshot since their debut. I am happy and proud how taemin treasures his friends. He is such a good friend. He is always there and help them as much as he could. His tears were very pure. You can tell how important timo to him. I really hope that timoteo will be very very successful someday like his friends. Hwaiting!!!
@@arissacastillo338 I feel like younmight be kidding but I'll answer anyway. Taemin is the guy crying with the striped shirt. He is the maknae of the amazingly popular k-pop group SHINee. He's also a very successful solo artist and arguably one of the top 3 dancers in k-pop history. He is amazingly popular and hard-working, incredibly talented, and also very sensitive and supportive towards his friends and loved ones. His usual personality is very shy, but savage, and he usually makes everything into a joke, so seeing him cry is hard.
@@arissacastillo338 Oh I see! Sorry I thought you were kidding :) Kai and Taemin are actually best friends since trainee days and people often say they look very much alike! So you are not alone to confuse them haha :) Also both amazing dancers and performers!
Taeminnie barely cried when they won Daesang! Seeing him cry for his good friend made me cry in an instant. Our Taembaby crying means he must have really felt bad that his friend Timoteo isnt getting the recognizition for his talent and hardwork. Taemin must have felt that he hasnt done enough to help him. Dont cry Taembaby, Timoteo loves you and is thankful for you.
I think he’s crying because he knows both of them probably worked just as hard and it is just that tad bit of luck that made such a difference in their careers. And knowing that his friend is still working on his dream no matter what..... phew~~~~ it’s so heartbreaking...
Yeah, you expressed it perfectly. It's unfortunate how chance determines so much of our lives rather than our own efforts. While effort still does come into play, the biggest parts of our lives are often left to luck.
And the agency. They did mention their agency was struggling and it can't be easy when making and promoting an album costs so much. Their most recent album has done much better than the others so I hope they make it!
I really respect Timoteo! The fact that he remained supportive and close to them despite not being as successful as they were is a beautiful thing! I want to be a friend like him
0:24 Taemin looking at his friends application and feeling nervous while recollecting a pile of old memories with timoteo. 5:02 tears in taemin's eyes 7:50 Timoteo tried hard to not to cry bcoz Taemin feel much sadder if he cries, as he was crying hard already!!

Rain: Even though he's your friend, evaluate him professionally Taemin: *not even missing a beat* I think he should work harder GET YOU A FRIEND LIKE FREAKIN TAEMIN TToTT
One of the best Taemin moments. I went from tears in my eyes struggling to hold back the emotion to laughing out loud in that split second. But seriously, what a strong friendship they have, that they can be completely honest and objective in their professional lives while still cheering each other on, and that honesty IS them cheering each other on and pushing each other to be their best. I could only dream of having a friendship like Taemin and Timoteo have!
i already have wooyoung (2pm) as closest korean friend < sooo u'll find them in JYP BUILDIND AND STAR A wonderful friendship with them but it's dream come true
Kai also cried watching Timoteo / "Monggyu" perform.... He said it in Insta live.... But he also said that song of his choreo was incorrect.... I ♥️ the friendship of Taemin, Kai and Timoteo....💕💕💕💕💕💕
"Instead of criticizing me, he always waited for me silently." the people in the comments surely know how Timoteo / Moonkyu is so close to Taemin and Jongin, they literally grew up together and had the same dreams. They were there for each other through thick and thin, especially Moonkyu, he supports them so well.
From this.. You would know that being a K-pop star is not easy... They fight for their dream!! And the moral is... *DONT HATE THE OTHERS GROUP YOU DONT KNOW WHAT THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH* *THROW A STONE AT THEM IF YOU DID AS MUCH THEY DID*
taemin and kai knowing their friend will be joining The Unit: taemin: okay, i think this shinee song really suits him, uhm, a solo song of mine will do, too- kai: no, hE WILL COVER SHIMMY SHIMMY KOKOBOP AND THE DECISION IS FINAL.
ALWAYS EXO I was actually crying when the both of them start to talk and at the same time i was scrolling the comment section and burst out laughing at your comment ...kai part tho😂😂😂😂
I remember Taemin once said in an interview years ago that to be able to achieve his goal, he sacrificed his friends and chose his career to be an idol that makes him cry in the interview, he really loves his friends and knows their struggles that makes him sad and cry.
Even if im not a hardcore fan of HotShot this still made me cry so much because I know how it feels when you see someone fight for their dreams so hard and then see them being called failures. Taemin its okay to cry for your friend! I love you guys so much!! I hope you guys can be famous together! I will support hotshot! I really do hope you guys get the recognition you guys deserve so much!
Taemin has a big heart. He really has. Even though he became one of Korea's greatest artist, he never fails to forget his friends who was with him ever since. I think the reason why he cried when he saw Moonkyu on stage was because he remembered the hardships and failures of his friend. He was there when Moonkyu had a hard time in some things. Moonkyu was a former trainee of SM ENTERTAINMENT and was supposed to debut with EXO but for some reasons he left the agency and created his own name. He is great friends with Kai and Taemin. I love this side of Lee Taemin. Really. I cried when I heard his message for his friend. ❤❤❤❤
Watching Taemin cry just hurt so much...our precious maknae have really a soft heart for his beloved ones...all I want is watching you smile brightly when Timoteo succeed in this programm and in the future probably have a collab stage with all your friends just like is your wish :-)
I agree. He is the maknae in Shinee but he is the strongest one to hold back his tears even during the passing of one of his hyungs. I watched their Japan concert as just 4 and his brothers teared up but he didn't.
i can totally understand Timoteo. you have to work so hard for your dream on becoming singer, especially in k-pop music industry, and i think reason why Taemin couldn't hold his tears was because he knows how hard it is to reach it, and he genuinely wanted his friend to reach it with him. these videos always makes me emotional
Kawaii Squishy he was the leader I believe of shinee. He killed himself december 17 2017 through carbon monoxide poisoning. The stress of the industry became too much for him but we still see him shining bright
He felt sad since it was his best friend. But in the end when it comes to feedback, without any second thought he gave it away straight forward. That is the real professionalism. He didn't gave any false hopes to his friend however gave honest feedback. I once again realised by watching taemin that whatever we do in our lives,we need to give our 100% efforts then we can become successful. Definitely, taemin represented that.
I really admire Taemin.. He didn't forgot to comment something on the other guy.. I easily cry when one of my faves cried, he don't usually cry but he still cried, Timoteo is really important on his life.
HOTSHOT DANCING TO EXO'S SONG (KAI IS THEIR BEST FRIEND) I FRONT OF TAEMIN AND SEEING ALL THEIR BEST FRIENDS SUCCEED LIKE SUNGWOON AND JIMIN...THIS REALLY HURTS MY HEART...I WILL SUPPORT THEM FOREVER PLZ SUPPORT THEM THEY'RE REALLY TALENTED AND STREAM JELLY
Himani Chand As far as I know (could be wrong) Sungwoon got into the squad before Jimin. Only Kai, Timoteo and Taemin knew each other since childhood and Sungwoon got to know them through Timoteo.
I was literally in tears seeing Timoteo perform Kai's song and performing it in front of Taemin. Their friendship is truly genuine and I am so happy that they are really good friends until now.
This made me realise. Some good people landed on some bad condition/company.. so i guess it takes their courses thus it happened like this.. a friend is struggling & another just boosted to fame when they started at the same time, on the same track...
i dont understand why there r still bunch of people who hate sweetest & softest guy like taemin. why? he deserves this world. he is the sweetest friend we'll never have in person
I love how taemin wer straight to honesty n advised his friend on working harder. Providing feedback as a professional even when they r close friends. This is a true professional n friend.
When he was professionally evaluating Timoteo, the way he spoke was definitely more like a friend poking fun at another friend. This video is so sweet. 1:38 The is the purest 'you're a dork, why do I love you' face I've ever seen.
Knowing Timoteo is still fighting for his dream after all this time and struggle while watching his friends being succesful make me respect him so much. He's incredibly strong and I hope the show brings HotShot the attention they deserve because that's some fierce determimation right there.
Clafford music if i were timoteo i would feel so bad, seeing my friends succeed while me being ignored by luck...but at the same time happy becoz i see my friends reached their dreams
Very precious, beautiful friendship. Tae Min and Kai didn't forget his friend. This is we called friendship im so proud with them. They make me cry and miss my childhood friends. But, I'm lucky that my childhood friends still with me.
My heart breaks every time I watch this. He cried thinking about all the hardships his friend went through but then 4 days later he and Shinee were hit with the news of Jonghyun' s death. My heart literally broke when I saw the date this episode aired💔😭
I felt Taemin's emotion. That's a genuine concern for a friend. The entertainment industry is really tough, only a few people made it to stardom, that's a sad truth but keep fighting!
shafaq kamran He wasn't born with a pretty face like Taemin and Kai. It's cruel but is half way to success sadly. I think they style him too badly. He will never work with this styling. His looks would look better with more "troubled rebel skinny byunshin" look. Like ripped jeans, wife beaters, shorter and messy hair with some "troublemaker" vibes. He is not pretty. Sad to say that but this differs him from his friends and he needs to find his best looks and angles (and stop smoking because it's noticeable) to favor him better. There is no charisma in his performances too. He "just" dance well. but looks totally without personality. I don't know if it's because he is insecure but there is youtube dance covers of Kokobop (in this case) far much better than his performance. Idols are brands. Walking brands. Sad but that's what it is. Unless you're from Bangtan, you can't count with a sea of teenagers looking at you as good looking even if you're not pretty.
Taemin never mentioned anything about him before the performance so as not to jeopardize, that is being professional...and his reaction and words of comfort for his friend was really touching that my tears went rolling without even knowing😊
"He never see me as someone who is lacking"-Genuine friendship, I always think childhood friends since elementary is always the best, they are the few people who really knows you deeply.
They are very jealous of his talent, angry that their favorite idols cannot surpass Taemin. They know he's a great dancer and vocalist and an art maker, not just an artisan who writes popular, ordinary songs that will be forgotten in a year 1-2
There are a lot of toxic people who hate bright, kind and talented people. They want to destroy, it gives them pleasure. They don’t seem so from life, they are insignificant, realizing that they hurt such a great artist. these are people with a personality disorder: narcissists, psychopaths, sociopaths, borderline disorder, abusers, manipulators. Such people always poison and bring other people to depression.
I feel really bad for timoteo, when all his friends get success (taemin, kai, sungwoon and jimin) and he doesn't 😞 I hope from now on people will start paying attention to hotshot, their songs are good and they have worked very hard
Taemin showed what being a true friend really is....that he wants his friends to also succeed like he did and that it pains him when they don't. In showbiz you gain more so called "friends" when you are already successful, but the ones who were with you before that success are the ones that are the real deal.
Ok. I just discovered Taemin it has been like 3 days... I have known kpop for 8 years... I have slept under a rock..Just how in the world is someone so talented and by that i mean that he is with no doupt the best dancer in kpop. I had to look for only one MV to prove that to myself. And not only that,- the visuals, the VOICE it's so seductive and AMAZING. You know when you watch someone and you dont blink and breathe. I am so happy that people are appreciating him. Maybe he is not no the most mainstream artist in the world but people will recognize his talent by time like I did after all this years. And yes I know he is big in Korea, and i believe that each and every one of those idols no matter how big they are feel the same way like i do, and can only put a red carpet in front of him. U can't denie this talent .Thank you Taemin. And you have a big heart too.
Seeing Taemin cry like this for his dear friend who worked so hard...while also knowing that this took place 3 days before Jonghyun passed away...it really hurts so much to think of what Taemin went through during this time
And sadder still is that he will be going through the loss of Jonghyun for the rest of his life because that is the price of love -- to carry Jonghyun within a broken heart.
Taemin is so sweet...everytime I watch this part, I cry...(it was my fourth time already in total omg)!!! Actually, Taemin deserves more attention and love too...he works really hard...from the time when he debuted (9 years ago), he spend lots of time in practicing and he has his own thought to fulfill his dreams..it's been 9 years that Taemin didn't spend his time with his family in Christmas, new year etc...Taemin from someone who named as a deaf-tone....to now, a SOLO ARTIST, who is good-looking, cute, talented, sexy and humble...really needs more recongition! Of course SHINee too!!!!!
Taemin is very a hard crying person. I could tell so many times he wanted to cry and didn't cuz he hates crying in front of other people. There were times before like this, in SHINee World I, in a SHINee anniversary, last episode of WGM, rookie daesang in 2008, our sad concerts this year. He starts blinking and calmly draws a smile with his lips. Then just try to look something else and you can tell he wants to cry just pay attention to his eyes. But he finally cries when it's too much to handle like SHINee award in 2013 and the radio program in 2008. And now here, he's such a good friend, we all know how much he loves his friends and always keep in touch with them. I just watched this video today. I'm so proud of him
Taemin is such a...how do I explain this..this guy just does something to the heart. It's a gentle and sweet feeling, it's a soothing feeling..the butterflies in your stomach like feeling
when they finished their performance, i literally started crying because I was so proud of them, their hard work paid off. And when Timoteo revealed that he was close friends with Taemin, I started crying even more oh my god. xC
It only proves what a beautiful heart Taemin has . One that feels for things that really matters to us as human beings ! Staying humble yet having will power to achieve the new heights every single time. Keep inspiring Taemin.
The part when he said people even called them a failure is sad😢 it’s something no one needs to hear especially after training for years and finally getting to debut but end up hearing those words, Timoteo even went to SM and trained there but left and then trained again..😢I feel bad, I wish people would give them more recognition
taemin cried so hard in here how much more when Jonghyun Left us in this world permanently, just thinking of it want me to breakdown already. Cant bear seeing SHINee crying.
I feel so bad for Teamin when he keeps on saying he usually doesn't cry. You don't have to justify yourself! We know you can keep your emotions in very well but sometimes they are just too much. It's human!
These two doesnt have that hype..they have different hype..like fast beat song disnt make them appeal..They have this slander type like winner..very relaxing style..well thats what i feel..i think they can pull off better with winner genre..
performing his best friends song while his other best friend judges him this is so...painful
It's brave. That's what it is. Brave!
I cried a lot. Seeing Taemin crying for his best friend, you can see how proud and happy seing his best friend performing on stage. #theyareforreal 😢😢👌👌❤❤

I started sobbing
I started balling my eyes out I’m currently recovering

Kai also cried watching Timoteo / "Monggyu" perform.... He said it in Insta live.... But he also said that song of his choreo was incorrect.... I ♥️ the friendship of Taemin, Kai and Timoteo....💕💕💕💕💕💕
If you guys noticed this was posted 4 days before JONGHYUN Death!!!😭😭😭😭💜🙌
Also with Sungwoon and Jimin, Taemin said in Night Night radio 'Kai, Sungwoon, Timoteo, Jimin and one non-celebrity are his team.'
It's now jimin, kai,taemin,timotoe,ravi,sungwoon and a non-celeb friend what a iconic squad i could never
BESTIE GOALS.
@@sadssssss never see ravi and jimin in the same pic. Are they close?
"Instead of criticizing me, he always waited for me silently."
the people in the comments surely know how Timoteo / Moonkyu is so close to Taemin and Jongin, they literally grew up together and had the same dreams. They were there for each other through thick and thin, especially Moonkyu, he supports them so well.
who is moonkyu
@@emerald442 oh it's timoteo (the one in stripes and red shirt under) :D kim moonkyu is his real name
@@첸니양 oh hahahah i know timoteo but i didnt know his real name dhkaska
oh i know this is random question but euijin bigflo has siblings?
Eet
From this.. You would know that being a K-pop star is not easy...
They fight for their dream!!
And the moral is...
*DONT HATE THE OTHERS GROUP YOU DONT KNOW WHAT THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH*
*THROW A STONE AT THEM IF YOU DID AS MUCH THEY DID*
TAEHYUNG IS BEAUTIFUL A STONE HAHAHAHAHAHA
Right not matter what fandom we are
true :'( fandoms can drag each other down for all i care, but don't drag the idols with them :( each of them does not deserve any hate from people.
True...if only all the fans could understand that
taemin and kai knowing their friend will be joining The Unit:
taemin: okay, i think this shinee song really suits him, uhm, a solo song of mine will do, too-
kai: no, hE WILL COVER SHIMMY SHIMMY KOKOBOP AND THE DECISION IS FINAL.
ALWAYS EXO
Taemin: BUT I think the shinee song suits him better!!!! Why? Because he reminds me of myself!!!!
ALWAYS EXO I was actually crying when the both of them start to talk and at the same time i was scrolling the comment section and burst out laughing at your comment ...kai part tho😂😂😂😂
This made me laugh
I remember Taemin once said in an interview years ago that to be able to achieve his goal, he sacrificed his friends and chose his career to be an idol that makes him cry in the interview, he really loves his friends and knows their struggles that makes him sad and cry.
Even if im not a hardcore fan of HotShot this still made me cry so much because I know how it feels when you see someone fight for their dreams so hard and then see them being called failures. Taemin its okay to cry for your friend! I love you guys so much!! I hope you guys can be famous together! I will support hotshot! I really do hope you guys get the recognition you guys deserve so much!
well said ! fighting HOTSHOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AmBeR LiU hotshot fighting!! Do not lose hope!!
The most painfull moment when you see your friend having hard time oh his tears mean his true friendship
Taemin crying for Timoteo because he got super boot. and Kai crying for Taemin because he got Daesang. what a friendship goal i wish i wanna be
Taemin has a big heart. He really has. Even though he became one of Korea's greatest artist, he never fails to forget his friends who was with him ever since. I think the reason why he cried when he saw Moonkyu on stage was because he remembered the hardships and failures of his friend. He was there when Moonkyu had a hard time in some things. Moonkyu was a former trainee of SM ENTERTAINMENT and was supposed to debut with EXO but for some reasons he left the agency and created his own name. He is great friends with Kai and Taemin. I love this side of Lee Taemin. Really. I cried when I heard his message for his friend. ❤❤❤❤
He left the agency bcs the agency didnt have any intention to put him in exo, he is losing to other trainees thats debut
Watching Taemin cry just hurt so much...our precious maknae have really a soft heart for his beloved ones...all I want is watching you smile brightly when Timoteo succeed in this programm and in the future probably have a collab stage with all your friends just like is your wish :-)
I would love to see all of them collaborate tho! It would be epic :)
Yes!!...maybe in some Gayo could be?
Latin Shawol and jonghyun died shit
Taemin is just too kind hahaha i envy his friends
Taemin never ever cry a lot, even when he is sad, so it surprised me a lot hearing him sobbing like that, makes me wanna hug him
I agree. He is the maknae in Shinee but he is the strongest one to hold back his tears even during the passing of one of his hyungs. I watched their Japan concert as just 4 and his brothers teared up but he didn't.
Taemin made me cry while watching this
Yeah ❤️
i can totally understand Timoteo. you have to work so hard for your dream on becoming singer, especially in k-pop music industry, and i think reason why Taemin couldn't hold his tears was because he knows how hard it is to reach it, and he genuinely wanted his friend to reach it with him. these videos always makes me emotional
Knowing that this was posted just 5 days before Jonghyun comitted suicide and taemin saying,
"I don't usually cry"
Made me cry so much😭😭
Omg noooooo I just read the comments and watched the video. I'm crying this is so sad
It still hurts. The news broke right after I confirmed him to be my bias. The poor babies
I just saw the date tooooo
Who’s jonghyun....
Kawaii Squishy he was the leader I believe of shinee. He killed himself december 17 2017 through carbon monoxide poisoning. The stress of the industry became too much for him but we still see him shining bright
He felt sad since it was his best friend. But in the end when it comes to feedback, without any second thought he gave it away straight forward. That is the real professionalism. He didn't gave any false hopes to his friend however gave honest feedback. I once again realised by watching taemin that whatever we do in our lives,we need to give our 100% efforts then we can become successful. Definitely, taemin represented that.
It's not that these idols aren't talented, it's their companies who don't go the extra miles for them. Which is sad.
Taemin is so funny when he gave comments to his friend. He's like "WORK HARDER. STOP DOING THAT STRANGE GAZE. ACT MORE NATURALLY" GAHAHAH XDDD
taemin rarely cries, at concerts when everybody is weeping he’s laughing. it must’ve truly broke his heart. 😞
TAEMIN SEE HIS FRIEND.....
AND HE IS CRY😢😢😢
THEIR FRIENDSHIP❤❤❤
The ending Comment...
Seems like "Yaaah, please work hard..theres still a lot of team who are so good"...my Taeminnie
..
I really admire Taemin.. He didn't forgot to comment something on the other guy.. I easily cry when one of my faves cried, he don't usually cry but he still cried, Timoteo is really important on his life.
HOTSHOT DANCING TO EXO'S SONG (KAI IS THEIR BEST FRIEND) I FRONT OF TAEMIN AND SEEING ALL THEIR BEST FRIENDS SUCCEED LIKE SUNGWOON AND JIMIN...THIS REALLY HURTS MY HEART...I WILL SUPPORT THEM FOREVER PLZ SUPPORT THEM THEY'RE REALLY TALENTED AND STREAM JELLY
Oh. Wanna one Sungwoon is also a friend of Kai, Taemin and Jimin? I didn't know this. Are they schoolmate or what? No doubt they are so great dancers.
Himani Chand As far as I know (could be wrong) Sungwoon got into the squad before Jimin. Only Kai, Timoteo and Taemin knew each other since childhood and Sungwoon got to know them through Timoteo.
omg i even didnt know that Taemin , Kai and Jimin are friends.
“Sorry I can’t do this” Someone hand me the tissues
🤧
Taemin's duality sure is something eh. He went from crying and being proud to constructive criticism very quickly. That's why we stan .
The way they look at each other gosh they must really love each other
I am glad that they are good friends!
“a lot of people said that we were a failure.”
i lost my shit. i’m crying now.
You can see how proud taemin is for his friend through his eyes.
I was literally in tears seeing Timoteo perform Kai's song and performing it in front of Taemin. Their friendship is truly genuine and I am so happy that they are really good friends until now.
This made me realise. Some good people landed on some bad condition/company.. so i guess it takes their courses thus it happened like this.. a friend is struggling & another just boosted to fame when they started at the same time, on the same track...
That's true that why taemin and kai is supporting timoteo
That is painful at a very different level.
...Life...
This is painful to watch, but humbling. I hope he succeeds too just like his friends.
@@snoopotato4332, I hope he succeeds too.
i dont understand why there r still bunch of people who hate sweetest & softest guy like taemin. why? he deserves this world. he is the sweetest friend we'll never have in person
I love how taemin wer straight to honesty n advised his friend on working harder. Providing feedback as a professional even when they r close friends. This is a true professional n friend.
When he was professionally evaluating Timoteo, the way he spoke was definitely more like a friend poking fun at another friend. This video is so sweet.
1:38 The is the purest 'you're a dork, why do I love you' face I've ever seen.
7:21 really true. Judging your best friend on such a stage is the toughest...
Knowing Timoteo is still fighting for his dream after all this time and struggle while watching his friends being succesful make me respect him so much. He's incredibly strong and I hope the show brings HotShot the attention they deserve because that's some fierce determimation right there.
Clafford music if i were timoteo i would feel so bad, seeing my friends succeed while me being ignored by luck...but at the same time happy becoz i see my friends reached their dreams
Very precious, beautiful friendship. Tae Min and Kai didn't forget his friend. This is we called friendship im so proud with them. They make me cry and miss my childhood friends. But, I'm lucky that my childhood friends still with me.
Choi Ra Yoon Woollim Stan I hope to achieve that friendship level
Good
The way he cried shows how sincere he was. Such a pure soul ❤️
I like how Taemin went from so happy for you as his friend that he cried to laughingly roasting him a second later
friendship goals
My heart breaks every time I watch this. He cried thinking about all the hardships his friend went through but then 4 days later he and Shinee were hit with the news of Jonghyun' s death. My heart literally broke when I saw the date this episode aired💔😭
No doubt Timoteo was one of the people who made the nightmare that came days later more bearable.
I really respect all the kpop idol for their hard work just to be an idol.
Me too, i started to cry after I read the date
i cant enjoy any shinee video on this app without dec 18th showing up somewhere in the comments.
Victoria Valendo because people are still not over the fact that Jonghyun passed away🌹
I felt Taemin's emotion. That's a genuine concern for a friend. The entertainment industry is really tough, only a few people made it to stardom, that's a sad truth but keep fighting!
Thats why talented idols are angry when no talent or lack skill female can debut in girlgroup
Entertainment industry is so cruel..😭😭
shafaq kamran Life is cruel.
So true
shafaq kamran He wasn't born with a pretty face like Taemin and Kai.
It's cruel but is half way to success sadly.
I think they style him too badly.
He will never work with this styling.
His looks would look better with more "troubled rebel skinny byunshin" look. Like ripped jeans, wife beaters, shorter and messy hair with some "troublemaker" vibes.
He is not pretty. Sad to say that but this differs him from his friends and he needs to find his best looks and angles (and stop smoking because it's noticeable) to favor him better.
There is no charisma in his performances too. He "just" dance well. but looks totally without personality. I don't know if it's because he is insecure but there is youtube dance covers of Kokobop (in this case) far much better than his performance.
Idols are brands. Walking brands. Sad but that's what it is.
Unless you're from Bangtan, you can't count with a sea of teenagers looking at you as good looking even if you're not pretty.
It's oversaturated with idol groups and has been since the late 2000s when kpop blew up.
shafaq kamran Ikr, but it's what makes our idols today
the way he attacked his friend at the end and praised his groupmate shows how much he cares for him
Taemin never mentioned anything about him before the performance so as not to jeopardize, that is being professional...and his reaction and words of comfort for his friend was really touching that my
tears went rolling without even knowing😊
"He never see me as someone who is lacking"-Genuine friendship, I always think childhood friends since elementary is always the best, they are the few people who really knows you deeply.
Taemin is really strong but so emotional lovable and caring at the same time.
Taemin never cries. Hearing him sobbing like that it heartbreaking. His friend must have been through a lot. Wow 🥺
omg Taemin is such a kind heart..i really admire the friend group they have Kai-Taemin-Timoteo-Sungwoon-Jimin
everydaydreamer1 and ravi of VIXX too
Damn that’s good team bro
I love how taemin never really tell the judges everytime a performer is close to him. Like he doesnt want an unbiased opinion.
taemin is the kindest,the sweetest,the cutest boy in the world i don't know how some people can hate him💔
Same. That's why we find it hard to understand what people think!
They are very jealous of his talent, angry that their favorite idols cannot surpass Taemin. They know he's a great dancer and vocalist and an art maker, not just an artisan who writes popular, ordinary songs that will be forgotten in a year 1-2
There are a lot of toxic people who hate bright, kind and talented people. They want to destroy, it gives them pleasure. They don’t seem so from life, they are insignificant, realizing that they hurt such a great artist. these are people with a personality disorder: narcissists, psychopaths, sociopaths, borderline disorder, abusers, manipulators. Such people always poison and bring other people to depression.
I cried real hard as it reminded me how cruel is life ,fortunes and failure
I feel really bad for timoteo, when all his friends get success (taemin, kai, sungwoon and jimin) and he doesn't 😞
I hope from now on people will start paying attention to hotshot, their songs are good and they have worked very hard
Hot Shot
When teamin won Daesang kai cried when timoteo got recognised by people which he deserve teamin was crying, ah their friendship
"You should work harder!"
Yeah that's our Taemin😅
Taemin showed what being a true friend really is....that he wants his friends to also succeed like he did and that it pains him when they don't. In showbiz you gain more so called "friends" when you are already successful, but the ones who were with you before that success are the ones that are the real deal.
Ok. I just discovered Taemin it has been like 3 days... I have known kpop for 8 years... I have slept under a rock..Just how in the world is someone so talented and by that i mean that he is with no doupt the best dancer in kpop. I had to look for only one MV to prove that to myself. And not only that,- the visuals, the VOICE it's so seductive and AMAZING. You know when you watch someone and you dont blink and breathe. I am so happy that people are appreciating him. Maybe he is not no the most mainstream artist in the world but people will recognize his talent by time like I did after all this years. And yes I know he is big in Korea, and i believe that each and every one of those idols no matter how big they are feel the same way like i do, and can only put a red carpet in front of him. U can't denie this talent .Thank you Taemin. And you have a big heart too.
Seeing Taemin cry like this for his dear friend who worked so hard...while also knowing that this took place 3 days before Jonghyun passed away...it really hurts so much to think of what Taemin went through during this time
4lifeSHINee it's prerecorded
And sadder still is that he will be going through the loss of Jonghyun for the rest of his life because that is the price of love -- to carry Jonghyun within a broken heart.
Taemin is so sweet...everytime I watch this part, I cry...(it was my fourth time already in total omg)!!! Actually, Taemin deserves more attention and love too...he works really hard...from the time when he debuted (9 years ago), he spend lots of time in practicing and he has his own thought to fulfill his dreams..it's been 9 years that Taemin didn't spend his time with his family in Christmas, new year etc...Taemin from someone who named as a deaf-tone....to now, a SOLO ARTIST, who is good-looking, cute, talented, sexy and humble...really needs more recongition! Of course SHINee too!!!!!
I started crying as soon I saw Taemin getting emotional I swear he's the sweetest angel ever
I love Taemin's brutal honesty at the end. That's the real love of this friendship.
Taemin is very a hard crying person. I could tell so many times he wanted to cry and didn't cuz he hates crying in front of other people. There were times before like this, in SHINee World I, in a SHINee anniversary, last episode of WGM, rookie daesang in 2008, our sad concerts this year. He starts blinking and calmly draws a smile with his lips. Then just try to look something else and you can tell he wants to cry just pay attention to his eyes. But he finally cries when it's too much to handle like SHINee award in 2013 and the radio program in 2008. And now here, he's such a good friend, we all know how much he loves his friends and always keep in touch with them. I just watched this video today. I'm so proud of him
Taemin is such a...how do I explain this..this guy just does something to the heart. It's a gentle and sweet feeling, it's a soothing feeling..the butterflies in your stomach like feeling
agreed,he seems like such a gentle and sweet soul.
when they finished their performance, i literally started crying because I was so proud of them, their hard work paid off. And when Timoteo revealed that he was close friends with Taemin, I started crying even more oh my god. xC
This break my heart to pieces. I'm gonna support Timoteo and HotShot. Fighting!!
It only proves what a beautiful heart Taemin has . One that feels for things that really matters to us as human beings ! Staying humble yet having will power to achieve the new heights every single time. Keep inspiring Taemin.
I don't know.. But when taemin started crying i also cried😭💔
Taemin is so pure, the more I know him, the more I amazed
SN_WOO that's the charm of Lee Taemin...a man with many charm and left you captivated
It’s 5:24 am. I came across this video and cried along with Taemin. He is beautiful inside and out. Love his sweet smile.
Gosh.. I'm crying so hard rn.. Performing to your best friend's song and judged by your other best friend..
HOTSHOT members are very talented and deserve so much love! If you don't know them, please listen to their song "Jelly"!!
+rohotshot
Okay!!!
I felt Taemin has a beautiful soul.God bless him .
Timoteo was supposed to be an EXO member and now he is singing EXO's song aigoooooo this makes my harteu harteu melt 태민 오빠 얼지마
Shaerin Choi what happened? He backed out??
Exactly like boys republic suwoong. He supposed to debut with bts and he sang their song twice in this show.
His time will come soon enough.
Look at Johnny, he was supposed to debut with EXO but now he has his chance with NCT 127.
Ong's Ongnable Taemin do not freeze? I'm confused on the Korean
Wifey Ally I'm pretty sure op meant 울 as in don't cry
The part when he said people even called them a failure is sad😢 it’s something no one needs to hear especially after training for years and finally getting to debut but end up hearing those words, Timoteo even went to SM and trained there but left and then trained again..😢I feel bad, I wish people would give them more recognition
PLEASE stan my boys from Hotshot, theyre so talented and it BREAKS MY HEART to know that they'll disband or just fade out of existence eventually.
They didn't yet right ? What happened arter sungwoon left ?
derrie moon i think sungwoon didn’t left the group but he is just working with his solo currently
Yes! So many good groupsthat went unnoticed and faded away, I don't want hotshot to fade too
I thought they disbanded??
@@masochisticdoll welp, now they have...
Taemin said "I've never cried pike this before" but now is see the date this was aired/filmed I can stop crying
Like*
방시혁 same...imagining he is in a deep sorrow break my heart😢
taemin cried so hard in here how much more when Jonghyun Left us in this world permanently, just thinking of it want me to breakdown already. Cant bear
seeing SHINee crying.
I feel so bad for Teamin when he keeps on saying he usually doesn't cry. You don't have to justify yourself! We know you can keep your emotions in very well but sometimes they are just too much. It's human!
These two doesnt have that hype..they have different hype..like fast beat song disnt make them appeal..They have this slander type like winner..very relaxing style..well thats what i feel..i think they can pull off better with winner genre..
