I wouldn't say that Kai is inspired by Taemin but they were trainees together and friends for a long time so much so that they thought they were going to debut together. The industry does acknowledge that they are two of the best performers in the industry. Taemin is inspired by Michael Jackson and in some regards Kai is as well. Even today the Nov. 30 is the anniversary of Michael Jacksons Thriller Album.
I must say it also reminded me of Taemins Style. But that doesn't mean anything bad. Since they're besties there could be also a possibility that they are influenced by each other. So I guess u guys need to chill. FO Squad didn't have any bad intentions by saying that
@@SamyTMalik listen, You agree with them because you’re just as ignorant (in this case about Kai). And no, not everyone has to know everything about him but since they chose to make a reaction on his video they could’ve made a quick research about him and his history as a dancer or they could’ve simply refrained from comparing him to others if they chose to react without making a research.
this mv is basically a slap in the face for the antis that said he wouldn’t be a good soloist bc he has “bad” vocals. kai really has it all, from the dancing to the visuals to the singing to the rapping. he’s perfect. make sure to stream y’all!
Not fan of soloist EXO I'm more of grp and trust me.. Now I see EXO individual artist in music is big than any other boygrp out their . EXO is more of aesthetic than others out their you can see the music in them, they are arts.
Not hating on taemin or denying the fact that he is an icon himself, however KAI does not need to “give credit” to anyone but himself he is KIM KAI THE IDOL OF IDOLS.
Yeah,I don't really like that "credit to Taemin" comment.I love Taemin because they're like best friends for a long long time and he's also very talented.But this is literally Kai's style and he works so hard on this solo.The credit is all to Kai and his team.
It was a nice reaction! It kinda upsets me that when everyone in kpop was popping and locking, Kai went to the biggest award show stage in 2014 and changed the game performing alone a contemporary piece, showing his dancing roots, and it shocked everyone even celebrities there. Then the kpop boys and girls started doing it too, but he gets no credit for it today :/
@@bstmeg5237 Which just proves my point, people only know his name and that he's a great dancer but not how he influenced the kpop scene and all these boys ppl keep comparing him to. Well now you know. Was not a second rude to you, thanks for the reaction anyway.
@@antidave hahaha true😅. But still there are things you will notice, as if the two were related to each other, I mean like brother's hahaha. Love them😍. BEST FRIEND GOALS!💖
@@cattleya_8998 No he didn't. Kai has always been this creative he just never had the chance to show it off. Please stop making assumptions. Let Kai explain it himself. His favourite artistd are Michael kackson and Chris Brown. And he just to have ballet and jazz classsz when he was younger.
@@cattleya_8998 what trolls? lmao those are facts. oh so you've been his fan for a very long time huh? then you knew the trend of male idols solo dance was completely changed after 'Deep Breath' and basically after kai did it he set the trend with his own style and artistry
he did this all by himself, not influenced by taemin or anyone. put some respect on his work please all i hear yall saying he resembles taemin taemin has credits in this blabla NO he does not its all kai and his team JUST PUT SOME FUKICNG RESPECT ON HIS NAME FFS
This is Kai style, everything is Kai. When he debuted years ago, his debut teaser videos have this vibe though this is really way better. Kai made contemporary dance famous in Kpop. He started and as the Idol of majority of Idols, people followed his foot steps. Just King things
Kai doesn’t need to give Taemin credit. This has been his style for years, in fact since he was a kid, he’s a professional ballet dancer who actually has more experience in dancing than Taemin. I don’t really see Taemin coming out with something this trap influenced. I get you guys are using it as a compliment but it does come off as a bit disrespectful to Kai’s craft. Kai and Taemin are best friends so of course they would influence each other.
I remember Taemin once said that,he is afraid Kai will bury him to the floor when they dance together,something like that...i think that's the time when taemin debut as a soloist and he featured kai to one of his song...pls correct me if I'm wrong...
when the two of them did not debut yet kai and taemin often watch each other dance and give comments to each others dances... maybe the reason why they somehow influence each other but ... kai and taemin has their own style... I hope people will stop comparing him to taemin. Kai work hard so much for this solo album.
Nah I’m a shawol but even I know kai is incredibly unique. I think it’s just people who aren’t into kpop as much. They’ll find out soon enough as they see more of his work, I’m sure
That’s exactly what I’m thinking too. Kai just had his first solo album, he didn’t have the opportunity to show off his skills before. He was hidden in SM’s basement.
But nah Kai has been dancing contemporary longer than taemin. He literally started jazz and ballet as kid lol Too bad he didn't get the opportunity to show it off before I guess.
He used his teleportation power throughout the whole video. He is changing the game with this album!!! He made a visual album! First in Kpop I think. Kai and Taemin Besties and they were mistaken for each other since they were trainees. They trained together and practiced till the early morning after everyone went home. Kai studied ballet and jazz since he was 8 years old
Kai himself said he has no role model, when someone mentioned that he was the next Michael Jackson (or sumn like that) he said he respects him but he doesn’t want to be him, so it’s kinda annoying when people compares him to Taemin and say things like you said, he doesn’t have to give credits to anyone for his hard work, he has his own style and he loves dancing since he was a kid so no, Taemin is not his inspiration. They belong to the same company that’s why they might have similar taste in music but other than that there’s nothing to compare here.
When you said he kinda have taemin moves that when I understood that you haven't really watch many of Kai's work .. he participated in choreo and literally everything from styling ,editing,even the track picking ..even auditioned back up dancers just to work with him in the mv ..he'son another level of soloist debut .. he did asked advices from taemin but this full of Kai's hard work ..
@@stellachela483 it's a common sense to not include others name to ones hard work .. just because they saw many taemin videos doesn't mean they have to shove it to every other idols .. Was I being rude or something for you to be rude to me ????
no credits shouldn’t be given to anyone else but KAI. Yes, it’s his first official song as album but Kai has been doing for years like his “Deep Breath” performance in MAMA 2014.
Exactly! Taemin has something to do with his smooth hip move while Kai can dance with his foot (everyone dancing with foot, I mean Kai footwork is just something that u can't ignore) and Kai kinda give us his strong aura and that's make him more unique than everyone else
Inerpretative/Contemporary dance was popularized by Kai in Kpop. The whole kpop industry should give credits to him. Your screaming and simping the entire video is so me btw lol. I was also wrecked
its so damn sad that people aren't looking at Kais hardwork and appreciating his masterpiece for his own! he has very carefully thought out every part of this and you guys just throw it away by saying "i better see Taemin in the credits" have some respect for the artist please. Taemin is so different from this idk how you cant see that. this video and music and choreo is nothing like Taemin. PERIODT. THIS IS KAI ONLY. and if you cant be respectful and notice that please dont react to him
Kai and Taemin have been in SM for the same amount of time, have been friends since trainee days but Taemin has nothing to do with things KAI came up with Especially when he's the one who popularized more contemporary and ballet influenced moves that every idols use now AND croptops that yall went crazy over in Taemin's last MV
Kai created his own sound aint no need to give credit to ANYONE if someone inspired others that would be Kai since he is the idols of idols and even made the crop-tops popular among kpop idols
When u don't know he is called idol of idols, he is a master and a genre himself that's the problem . Because u always see hem in group u haven't seen he solo dance
actually taemin is called the idol of idols everybody says that even other artist taemin can out sell a staduim with out help for shinee by himslef again not hate to kai but he is not idol of idols he is the prince of kpop taemin is the king both great dancers but i feel people think kai is better than taemin when really they both are great two differnt styles
@@91mercedez lol you must living under the rock or you only focus to teamin? You don't know that Kai has been called as the Idol's idol? Literally almost idols idolize Kai it just that jongin debuted late.
@@rochirp1576 nah i havne't a lot of people have called taemin one of the best dancersin kpop nobody can do it like him yes kai is a good ass dancers to me top2 dancers in kpop
@@91mercedez U made me laugh so hard, honey if u don't know kai u need to stfu., idol of idols is wirrten in the national tv itself , I need to show u the pictures, kai admitted by over 100 idols and more ,who the fuck are u to say he is not. Go back to ur Taemin and educate urself before u talk about kai. He is literally called the legend and the nation treasure idol in the last radio interview. No one said anything about Taemin stop ur delusion
KAI (开) isn't just an album, it’s a cultural reset, a reason to breathe, and an escape from this cruel world. It's an art, the first gift you open on christmas, a hug from a loved one. It's everything you’ve ever wanted, everything you've ever need.
All my respect to exo-ls who aren’t taking these taemin comments and disrespecting taemin because of it. I know some other fandoms would be acting different.
we love and respect Taemin - he deserves every praise he gets, and at the same time just because non-fans don’t know/acknowledge Kai’s impact, we aren’t dumb to hate Kai’s literal bestie ❤️
@@baexolife7782 yh even as a shawol, it feels disrespectful to me too. i know how long he waited for this, how hard he worked, & how unique his style is. you guys are right for calling them out.
Don't worry,I think people will understand that it's not Taemin's fault.And most of the Kai's fans know Taemin is one of his closest friends.They're both talented and work hard.I personally really love their friendship.
dudes? you dont know this is KAI style? He literally brought ballet/contemporary/lyrical interpretative style in kpop as the one who professionally trained in those since he was like 7. He learnt hiphop and stuff with taemin when he joined SM and he is the one who influenced and popularized this style in Kpop. That's why he is voted best dancer in kpop for 3 years in a row by KPOP IDOLS themselves. He is the only one who doesnt get compared to any western counterpart or senior. He is just KAI.
They only know about BTS. They half ass learning about other groups but that's it. I'm not surprised they did something like this. Disappointed but not surprised.
@@faaizakauthar4068 It's pretty deep. FO Squad should know some things first considering Kai was the first to popularize Contemporary and Lyrical dance and make it work in the Kpop scene. His dance background is very different compared to most dances in Kpop, but despite that, he still managed to adapt to the style of dance Kpop choreographies have. Them saying Taemin must've been credited for the choreo or Taemin is a role model for Kai is kind of disrespectful. Kai and Taemin may be friends but none of them have took, copied from their dances or have the same style, both have different dance backgrounds respectively, most of all, Kai has stated many times that he has no role model in dancing. Not to mention that they're just freely throwing out Taemin's name, making it seem like he had to take some inspiration from Taemin just because Kai has recently debuted unlike Taemin. And no hate to Taemin of course, these guys are just weird as hell for mentioning Taemin like that
You guys and the people in the comments need to know a few facts. Jongin is trained in ballet and jazz and has been dancing since he was 8 years old. He won the SM best dancer award and got into the company and trained for 5 years. Shortly after he debuted he started something that people tend to overlook. He popularized and revolutionized contemporary dancing and contemporary solo pieces. His performance of Deep Breath in 2014 at award shows was something that has never been done before in kpop, soon enough people starting piling up and doing their own versions of that. Which is fine, but he never got the credit he deserved for it, everybody and their mama was still poppin n locking before Jongin came in. Every time you see an idol doing a solo contemporary piece now just now that's Jongin's impact, and it doesn't take away from their talents it's just facts. Everybody always thinks of crop tops and red suits and gucci and facial expressions (popularized that too) and whatnot when it comes to him but this is much bigger and much more important and needs to be addressed more. So if anyone is doing up inspirations here it's Kai. It's always Kai. His album is self titled KAI for a good reason. He was in control and overseeing everything from concept to visuals to styling to picking the songs to choreography to choosing the dancers. He worked on this project for 9 months, no one else has worked on a solo debut for that long. Put some fucking respect on his name or don't speak it at all. Kai is synonymous with legend, and his solo career has only just begun and he's set for greatness. Thank you.
This is KAI SOLO, he's been dancing since he was a kid. He dance like this since before debuted, and TAEMIN is such a good dancer, but he has his own style. TAE and KAI are bffs :)
Kai and Taemin trained together and are best friends since teenage years , no wonder they have similar tastes/ style, but Kai was being hidden by SM so never got the creddit he deserves
@@BlackRose-gd8zl ??? lmao not really? Kai literally revived contemporary/modern dance when everyone else was doing popping n hip hop dance and after Kai did it every one followed. its been always like that, go search kai 'deep breath' solo performance or his baby don't cry fancam at exo concert.
Naaah that's Kai. He's always sexy. That's why idols want to emulate him. But Taemin is his best friend. You should see Kai's fancam focus throughout the years. He's that sexy!
I’m a taemin stan but I love Kai too. They’re both masters, and both have their own unique styles. Love you guys but you gotta show a bit more respect to someone who has worked incredibly hard & contributed so much artistically to his debut, & give credit where credit is due.
Lol tf??? He did it himself!??? Yeah i knew they both were bff..but no need for that?? Kai did it himself.. he's working hard for it ..lol..at least appreciate his hard work..
If you look closely, you’ll see how kai and taemin have different styles. Both good dancers but their styles are very different. None of them copied/copies the other.
This is Kai's work, he poured his soul into it, it's disrespectful to say "I better see Taemin in the credits". This man can only be compared to himself and nobody else.
Lmao the fact that he set the contemporary trend in kpop with his 2014 mama stage to all the other kpop boys just for everyone to discredit him LMAO they should be giving credit to KAI
Taemin is Taemin, Kai is Kai. Both amazing performers but if there's someone Kai would give credit to is himself. No one else.😉 As usual you're full of energy.👏😁
I haven't watched their reaction yet, but I can tell that the two almost 'perfect' reactions are from Dezzy and JREKML. They appreciate without overhyping, know some EXO lore, and don't pause too much. Dezzy does say Taemin's name, but only to say that Taemin and Kai are both on another level.
@@jaetaegang71 Deacs is good too. The only group Lou and Ous really know is BTS. They haven't put much genuine effort into educating themselves about any other groups. They've been doing this for years now. The lack of interest is disappointing.
Kai is already a legend to begin with. He is already the idol of idols. Taemin is another brilliant artist who debuted solo 6 years ago, however this whole album is Kais creation, its literally only kai, nobody else, he took 10 years to get to this point, to be ready to put out his solo album, he prepared 9 months for this solo, if it was inspired by taemin, it would not have took this long, trust me. Its completely his creation, his hard work and his creativity, so please watch on your words when you say it was inspired by any other artist artist. Taemin is another god, who exols all respect and love.
Kai studied jazz and ballet since he was a child so his dance style is his own. Him and Taemin are best friends and Kai did ask advice from Taemin about releasing a solo but the whole style was based on music that Kai likes to listen to.
What’s Ironic is Kai is trained in Jazz, Ballet and Contemporary while Taemin is trained in Pop and Lock and hip hop. Taemin can not inspire Kai because those are the genres Kai trained in. This is the reason why they both choose those genres in the SuperM performance video. They went with their strengths. Further to this, contemporary performances were none existent in kpop until Kai had a contemporary solo stage during the MAMAs in 2014, 2 years after his debut and Six (6) years ago. The stage got so much buzz companies started looking into getting their idols to perform more contemporary pieces. Kai is the blueprint for so many things you see in kpop today, which is why they call him the idols idol, so please put some respect on his name.
👑🐻🙌🏼 Preach it!! Sorry that I pushed the dislike button for that credit statement. Too bad that I can only push once. Ugghh... Do ur research before throwing such strong statement! Pfftt 🙄 Definitely won't take it as a joke.
Kai HELD AN AUDITION for his backup dancers. He doesn’t need to give anyone credit but himself and his team. Taemin is an undeniable ICON and his childhood bff (literally look at his insta). They are so close paparazzi tried to find a "scoop" that they were gay because they always hang out together 😂 anyways, both of have similar styles since they did train together but they are different. Kai is the idol of idols, and is only now getting to showcase his talent despite being the same age as Taemin~ so it might look like he was "inspired" by Taemin, but he wasn’t!! Kai has always danced as Kai, Kai made contemporary dancing in Kpop a THING in 2014 - revolutionary, and that’s why now you see idols like Jimin and more doing it. If you can respect BTS’ strides and achievements, I’m sure you can respect Kai. Kai is a brand, is an art and is a style. Even non-fans know the K in Kpop stands for Kai. Oh, and forgot to say thanks for the reaction ❤️
@@lazybum9732 Oh they know, thats why they said Kai and Taemin been hanging out lately. They just didn't know they've known eachother since they were teens.
He doesn't need and have to credit someone else. Taemin is great, but don't discredit Kai's hardwork. He didn't copy anyone's dance style. Kai is Kai. Taemin is Taemin. They're both different artists and have different dance styles. This is my boy's debut album, focus on him please. If you've been into EXO for so long, you wouldn't confuse his dance with Taemin. He didn't worked hard for how many months to make this album just for anyone to say that that's Taemin's dance style. Respect his hardwork please. Please try to react to someone else's mv without bringing another artist. Thanks for reacting tho
He's been dancing like that for so long. That has been his style from the very beginning. The difference between him and Taemin is that Kai wasn't given enough chance to show off his VOCALS and STYLES alone. Imagine how long it took for him to release this solo only to hear that he needs to give someone a credit for ALL HIS EFFORT. No hate for Taemin because I love him so much. I just don't like how their name pops up EVERY TIME they are releasing their own songs/projects. TAEMIN IS TAEMIN. KAI IS KAI.
@@stellachela483 yes my butt is hurt rn but the question is- how did u know? Lol.. since u r an army, imagine if someone said that BTS hardworks all this time need to be credited to someone else. What did u feel as a fan that has support BTS since their early peaks and have been through together their hard time? Isn't it hurts? Well if it's not, I don't care
Kai didnt worked hard for this album almost 9 months just for you to say he needs to credit someone else. THIS IS THE FIRST VISUAL ALBUM IN KPOP FOR A REASON KAI MADE IT FOR HIS OWN GENRE AND CONCEPT. THE CREDIT IS FOR HIM TO TAKE.
I think since Taemin and Kai are BFFs for so long they resemble each other in many ways, that may include their art. Fun fact they are SO close that even Taemin's manager asked him if they were in a relationship LMAO. Also, Kai said he received advice from Taemin so yeah, I think it's natural to see some form of resemblance.
He received advice from Taemin regarding being a SOLOIST not regarding the dancing or anything related to the album. Don’t come up with fake sh!t on your own
I’ve been streaming it 😭😭 I don’t even know how many times I’ve watched it Kai and Taemin are childhood best friends they trained together since day 1 of trainee years.. and Kai also took ballet lessons growing up which explains his smoothness while dancing... but I guess you could say they kind of influenced each other and have the same dancing style for sure since they trained together
Keep with the bts reactions because EXO is just too much for you to comprehend. EXO are the standard and the inspiration for all the other idols and that's just FACTS.
KAI's power in EXO's concept is Teleportation, thats why you see him teleport in the mv KAI and TAEMIN are bestfriends since trainee days. plus KAI learned Ballet since he was a kid, thats why he is smooth af. their dance style are almost similar :) IM IN LOVE! SM have that best dancers :)) and the scene at the end is related to XIUMIN and D.O (as Xiumin is going to be officially discharge from the military next month and D.O in January 2021) :))
Kai should be appreciated for the unique artist he is, he really set himself apart. But a lot of people draw similarities out of love, because they’ve been best friends forever. I hope these specific comments are not taken the wrong way.
@@fayla8127 saying he should credit another person for influencing HIS own personal style after the hard work that he's put into this? an album that's been years overdue and a style that he has cultivated himself since he was a child..the comparisons are completely unnecessary and unfounded. I do agree that Kai has set himself apart and that is what should be leading the conversation when it comes to his artistry.
@@temp_408 exactly 👏 this comment was really disrespectful. the comparison comments I was talking about are more like fans matching similar scenes from their mv (like taemin/Kai with their female dancers & outfits etc)
Naah. Kai has a different style. Tho they’ve been best friends ever since, they have different dance styles. Even back in 2011 when Taemin first introduced Kai. Kai actually did Ballet when he was young then went to Classic and Jazz. EDIT: Back in 2012, EXO’s concept was based on abilities/powers. The symbols you saw are from Xiumin (frost/ice) and D.O (earth). They’re actually coming back from military and I think SM is plotting something real good. Let’s stay tuned!
@@RacheleKC93 Y'all are speaking some dumb crap. They constantly threw Taemin's name like it was that much of a big deal. Kai has no role models and him and Taemin have different styles. This isnt about "9 positive things and 1 negative thing", get a damn grip
Taemin has nothing to do with anything involving his solo. Kai has no idols since he doesn’t want to be inspired by anyone and just wants to be Kai. He has said that this solo is where he shows his true self. It’s truly irritating when people don’t see that
Kai himself has said in a radio show a few days ago that Taemin has helped and supported him a lot for his debut and he valued his critique, input and knowledge. We should stop deluding ourselves, of course the greats study the greats, as it has always been and should be.
@@iamyoungernow yes! He supported him and i guess he helped him in what to do and not as a soloist but for dance Kai has his own foundation, Baekhyun also helped him in making his album like helping him finding his vocal tone.
@@taijini6312 absolutely agree. And it's not a good look if we disregard his members, friends and seniors. It doesn't take anything away from Kai as an incredible performer and artist. Of course it's HIS amazing (and successful!) debut and performance but since when is it not a compliment to be named along other great artists?
Kai and Taemin are best friends (brothers) and share many common tastes. It doesn't surprise me that they both share ideas. Each knows everything about the other.
Kai likes ballets since young. His vibes always that one type of gentle alpha male. He is not inspired by anyone. If anyone knows him better, they will know how he is since the beginning. That's his style. Anyways, I like your reaction. U both are so hype for him hahahha
Kai and Taemin are best friends from 13 years old trainee days..... the end scene is d.o and xuimins logo they are finished with military service soon.
Their friendship.have nothing to do with this weirdo in fact kai is the was dancing ballet when he was a kid he's the one who popularized contemporary &modern dance him being being a friend with x won't change facts one who

KAI IS KAI, Taemin is different!! many kpop idols picked KAI as the best dancer so don't compare them even though they're friends but they're different!!
Y'all might want to quit comparing artists while watching that is like sayin "he ain't nothin on this and that" stop bringing up bts in every video, thank you
Taemin and Kai are literally best friends. they respect each other a lot and are from the same company too. Taemin evolved into the beast he is today but his original dance style and gene is popping and locking but no official training while Kai is classically trained in Jazz and ballet but he can pull off any style. both are artists in their own right. Taemin just debuted early so thats why you might be reminded of him.
kpop music videos don’t even have credits 🤷🏾♂️ Twas a joke folks
that last part was so you don't get cancelled LMFAO
I wouldn't say that Kai is inspired by Taemin but they were trainees together and friends for a long time so much so that they thought they were going to debut together. The industry does acknowledge that they are two of the best performers in the industry. Taemin is inspired by Michael Jackson and in some regards Kai is as well. Even today the Nov. 30 is the anniversary of Michael Jacksons Thriller Album.

I dont think you guys have watched Kai enough to know that HE DANCES LIKE THIS😂😂😂
I’m sayin
Same thoughts
His debut teaser videos from 8 years ago actually is Mmmh's vibe. It's Kai style
Exactly
This is how you correct someone respectfully.
Kai doesn't have a role model because he is KAI.
Kai and Taemin are bestie from trainee days (high school i think).
they were friends since trainee days when taemin was 14 , Kai was 13 i think.
@@fayla8127 yes with Timoteo.
Yes, Kai said it himself. He doesn't have role models because he wants to find his own style and not being influenced by other people's style
This is Kai style, everything is Kai. When he debuted years ago, his debut teaser videos have this vibe though this is really way better. Kai made contemporary dance famous in Kpop. He started and as the Idol of majority of Idols, people followed his foot steps. Just King things
Kai doesn’t need to give Taemin credit. This has been his style for years, in fact since he was a kid, he’s a professional ballet dancer who actually has more experience in dancing than Taemin. I don’t really see Taemin coming out with something this trap influenced. I get you guys are using it as a compliment but it does come off as a bit disrespectful to Kai’s craft. Kai and Taemin are best friends so of course they would influence each other.
I remember Taemin once said that,he is afraid Kai will bury him to the floor when they dance together,something like that...i think that's the time when taemin debut as a soloist and he featured kai to one of his song...pls correct me if I'm wrong...
when the two of them did not debut yet kai and taemin often watch each other dance and give comments to each others dances... maybe the reason why they somehow influence each other but ... kai and taemin has their own style... I hope people will stop comparing him to taemin. Kai work hard so much for this solo album.
Looool deluded. If they say taemin than go clearly don’t know what kai popularised or whatever
@@maliamalis6389 or they just saw taemin before they saw kai... use ur brain?
Non exol do not know that's ALL KAI..even before that's his style. No hate to Taemin.
Nah I’m a shawol but even I know kai is incredibly unique. I think it’s just people who aren’t into kpop as much. They’ll find out soon enough as they see more of his work, I’m sure
@@fayla8127 thanks for telling
That’s exactly what I’m thinking too. Kai just had his first solo album, he didn’t have the opportunity to show off his skills before. He was hidden in SM’s basement.
But nah Kai has been dancing contemporary longer than taemin. He literally started jazz and ballet as kid lol Too bad he didn't get the opportunity to show it off before I guess.
He used his teleportation power throughout the whole video. He is changing the game with this album!!! He made a visual album! First in Kpop I think. Kai and Taemin Besties and they were mistaken for each other since they were trainees. They trained together and practiced till the early morning after everyone went home. Kai studied ballet and jazz since he was 8 years old
Kai himself said he has no role model, when someone mentioned that he was the next Michael Jackson (or sumn like that) he said he respects him but he doesn’t want to be him, so it’s kinda annoying when people compares him to Taemin and say things like you said, he doesn’t have to give credits to anyone for his hard work, he has his own style and he loves dancing since he was a kid so no, Taemin is not his inspiration. They belong to the same company that’s why they might have similar taste in music but other than that there’s nothing to compare here.
When you said he kinda have taemin moves that when I understood that you haven't really watch many of Kai's work .. he participated in choreo and literally everything from styling ,editing,even the track picking ..even auditioned back up dancers just to work with him in the mv ..he'son another level of soloist debut .. he did asked advices from taemin but this full of Kai's hard work ..
uhm they literally said this is their first reaction, are u deaf?

WHY IS KAI SO DIRESPECTFUL LIKE IT TOOK 10-15 MINS FOR ME TO GET THROUGH THE FREAKING VIDEO
SAME i had forgot how to breathe 😭
😂😂😂
uhhh taemin and kai's movements are so distinct from each other, they have their own style........
Exactly! Taemin has something to do with his smooth hip move while Kai can dance with his foot (everyone dancing with foot, I mean Kai footwork is just something that u can't ignore) and Kai kinda give us his strong aura and that's make him more unique than everyone else
Exactly!!! Watch Super M. U can see clearly their distinct style while dancing to the same choreography. Unless you're blind 😂
they areas different for real, I think their dancing styles are the opposite. Like Ying to Yang
Inerpretative/Contemporary dance was popularized by Kai in Kpop. The whole kpop industry should give credits to him.
Your screaming and simping the entire video is so me btw lol. I was also wrecked
its so damn sad that people aren't looking at Kais hardwork and appreciating his masterpiece for his own! he has very carefully thought out every part of this and you guys just throw it away by saying "i better see Taemin in the credits" have some respect for the artist please. Taemin is so different from this idk how you cant see that. this video and music and choreo is nothing like Taemin. PERIODT. THIS IS KAI ONLY. and if you cant be respectful and notice that please dont react to him
THIS IS HIS STYLE SINCE HE WAS DEBUTED WHY HE NEED CREDITS?! BUT YEAH THEY ARE BESTFRIEND
Kai and Taemin have been in SM for the same amount of time, have been friends since trainee days but Taemin has nothing to do with things KAI came up with
Especially when he's the one who popularized more contemporary and ballet influenced moves that every idols use now AND croptops that yall went crazy over in Taemin's last MV
YESSS THIS.
kai is the one who made contemporary/modern dance a trend in kpop after he performed his first solo dance stage 'deep breath' in 2013/2014
TELL THEM.
omg yesssss!!! HE DO IT BEFOREEEE
YOU BETTER
stating straight facts
Kai created his own sound aint no need to give credit to ANYONE if someone inspired others that would be Kai since he is the idols of idols and even made the crop-tops popular among kpop idols
When u don't know he is called idol of idols, he is a master and a genre himself that's the problem . Because u always see hem in group u haven't seen he solo dance

All my respect to exo-ls who aren’t taking these taemin comments and disrespecting taemin because of it. I know some other fandoms would be acting different.

dudes? you dont know this is KAI style? He literally brought ballet/contemporary/lyrical interpretative style in kpop as the one who professionally trained in those since he was like 7. He learnt hiphop and stuff with taemin when he joined SM and he is the one who influenced and popularized this style in Kpop. That's why he is voted best dancer in kpop for 3 years in a row by KPOP IDOLS themselves. He is the only one who doesnt get compared to any western counterpart or senior. He is just KAI.

@@faaizakauthar4068 they're stating facts tho🙄
@@faaizakauthar4068 It's pretty deep. FO Squad should know some things first considering Kai was the first to popularize Contemporary and Lyrical dance and make it work in the Kpop scene. His dance background is very different compared to most dances in Kpop, but despite that, he still managed to adapt to the style of dance Kpop choreographies have. Them saying Taemin must've been credited for the choreo or Taemin is a role model for Kai is kind of disrespectful. Kai and Taemin may be friends but none of them have took, copied from their dances or have the same style, both have different dance backgrounds respectively, most of all, Kai has stated many times that he has no role model in dancing. Not to mention that they're just freely throwing out Taemin's name, making it seem like he had to take some inspiration from Taemin just because Kai has recently debuted unlike Taemin. And no hate to Taemin of course, these guys are just weird as hell for mentioning Taemin like that
Kai is his own artist.
why are you keep saying kai got inspired by taemin?? he is in the industry since 2007 put some respect to his name.

@@stellachela483 not you replying to me after a month move your ass
You guys and the people in the comments need to know a few facts. Jongin is trained in ballet and jazz and has been dancing since he was 8 years old. He won the SM best dancer award and got into the company and trained for 5 years. Shortly after he debuted he started something that people tend to overlook. He popularized and revolutionized contemporary dancing and contemporary solo pieces. His performance of Deep Breath in 2014 at award shows was something that has never been done before in kpop, soon enough people starting piling up and doing their own versions of that. Which is fine, but he never got the credit he deserved for it, everybody and their mama was still poppin n locking before Jongin came in. Every time you see an idol doing a solo contemporary piece now just now that's Jongin's impact, and it doesn't take away from their talents it's just facts. Everybody always thinks of crop tops and red suits and gucci and facial expressions (popularized that too) and whatnot when it comes to him but this is much bigger and much more important and needs to be addressed more. So if anyone is doing up inspirations here it's Kai. It's always Kai. His album is self titled KAI for a good reason. He was in control and overseeing everything from concept to visuals to styling to picking the songs to choreography to choosing the dancers. He worked on this project for 9 months, no one else has worked on a solo debut for that long. Put some fucking respect on his name or don't speak it at all. Kai is synonymous with legend, and his solo career has only just begun and he's set for greatness. Thank you.
This is KAI SOLO, he's been dancing since he was a kid. He dance like this since before debuted, and TAEMIN is such a good dancer, but he has his own style. TAE and KAI are bffs :)

Its completely his creation, his hard work and his creativity, so please watch on your words when you say it was inspired by any other artist artist. Taemin is another god, who exols all respect and love.
totally agree with u
He is the ultimate ACE of kpop!! My man can do everything and he does it with such perfection!! ❤️
Kai studied jazz and ballet since he was a child so his dance style is his own. Him and Taemin are best friends and Kai did ask advice from Taemin about releasing a solo but the whole style was based on music that Kai likes to listen to.
Lmao the disrespect when KAI the only one who does contemporary dance since his debut days
I swear R&B is EXO's genre. They don't disappoint. Btw please listen to the whole album when it's out!
Fr, I want kyungsoo r&b solo debut album next he'd slay it too 😭
kai is one of his kind
no one can come close to him
he is insane
Actually kai and taemin are best friends and their dancing style is similar in a way so no it's not inspired by taemin
Their dancing styles aren't similar at all.
What’s Ironic is Kai is trained in Jazz, Ballet and Contemporary while Taemin is trained in Pop and Lock and hip hop. Taemin can not inspire Kai because those are the genres Kai trained in. This is the reason why they both choose those genres in the SuperM performance video. They went with their strengths. Further to this, contemporary performances were none existent in kpop until Kai had a contemporary solo stage during the MAMAs in 2014, 2 years after his debut and Six (6) years ago. The stage got so much buzz companies started looking into getting their idols to perform more contemporary pieces. Kai is the blueprint for so many things you see in kpop today, which is why they call him the idols idol, so please put some respect on his name.
👑🐻🙌🏼 Preach it!!
Sorry that I pushed the dislike button for that credit statement. Too bad that I can only push once. Ugghh... Do ur research before throwing such strong statement! Pfftt 🙄 Definitely won't take it as a joke.
Ditto!
Kai HELD AN AUDITION for his backup dancers. He doesn’t need to give anyone credit but himself and his team. Taemin is an undeniable ICON and his childhood bff (literally look at his insta). They are so close paparazzi tried to find a "scoop" that they were gay because they always hang out together 😂 anyways, both of have similar styles since they did train together but they are different. Kai is the idol of idols, and is only now getting to showcase his talent despite being the same age as Taemin~ so it might look like he was "inspired" by Taemin, but he wasn’t!! Kai has always danced as Kai, Kai made contemporary dancing in Kpop a THING in 2014 - revolutionary, and that’s why now you see idols like Jimin and more doing it. If you can respect BTS’ strides and achievements, I’m sure you can respect Kai. Kai is a brand, is an art and is a style. Even non-fans know the K in Kpop stands for Kai.

Please try to react to someone else's mv without bringing another artist. Thanks for reacting tho
He's been dancing like that for so long. That has been his style from the very beginning. The difference between him and Taemin is that Kai wasn't given enough chance to show off his VOCALS and STYLES alone. Imagine how long it took for him to release this solo only to hear that he needs to give someone a credit for ALL HIS EFFORT. No hate for Taemin because I love him so much.

No he's not inspired by Taemin.
Kai always had this vibe to him (idk how to phrase this lol)
He is bestfriends with Taemin tho.

Kai and Taemin are best friends (brothers) and share many common tastes. It doesn't surprise me that they both share ideas. Each knows everything about the other.
Kai likes ballets since young. His vibes always that one type of gentle alpha male. He is not inspired by anyone. If anyone knows him better, they will know how he is since the beginning. That's his style.

Kai and Taemin are best friends from 13 years old trainee days..... the end scene is d.o and xuimins logo they are finished with military service soon.

KAI ES ARTE....KAI ES PASIÓN...KAI ES DE OTRO MUNDO DE EXOPLANET....ES ETEREO ...ANDROGENO...FASCINANTE...CON ESTILO Y GRACIA...KAI ES EL IDOL MAS SENSUAL DEL KPOP... KAI ES PERFECCION....IPNOTIZA...SEDUCE CON SU BAILE...SUPER HOT Y SUBLIME
This man is pure art no one is on his level
KAI IS KAI, Taemin is different!! many kpop idols picked KAI as the best dancer so don't compare them even though they're friends but they're different!!
and no, he's not inspired by Taemin in any way. Kai sai himself he doesn't look up to anyone
Y'all might want to quit comparing artists while watching that is like sayin "he ain't nothin on this and that" stop bringing up bts in every video, thank you
Taemin and Kai are literally best friends. they respect each other a lot and are from the same company too. Taemin evolved into the beast he is today but his original dance style and gene is popping and locking but no official training while Kai is classically trained in Jazz and ballet but he can pull off any style. both are artists in their own right. Taemin just debuted early so thats why you might be reminded of him.
