I like when Zhang Li Yin speaks, her voice is soft then when she sings it's like woah o_o even Wang Lee Hom could not believe a voice came out of someone as young as herself back in the days & this has to be my fav. Version especially as these 2 look comfortable with each other; in an interview Chen mentioned her being a noona yet he wants to protect her like a younger sister & how they spent a lot of time together in order to perfect Chen's Chinese ^___^ ahhh so sweet this duet
The way she was looking at him, especially near the end, was heartwarming. To me, it seemed like she was smiling at him and telling him that he did well ^^ I loved this version. Chen's pronunciation sounds magnificent and Zhang Li Yin's voice is amazing
One of the things I love about this duet is you know Jongdae's not holding back. He doesn't have to worry about overpowering powerhouse Liyin. Flawless performance. Seamless harmonization. These two should be each other's official duet partners.
I'm so impressed by Chen's mandarin :) His pronounciation improves after every performance! and I can't imagine how difficult it must be for him to memorize the lyrics.. kudos to him.
Agree with everything you said... I can't imagine how difficult to memorize all the lyrics for him :'( However now he is wonderful whenever he sings in Mandarin and Korean :-)
@@emmacho6470 ofc that's great he's in EXO-M and having great time with them... also kudos to chinese / non korean trainee who must learn korean ...And fans who can memorize all of their idol's songs even though the languange is different🤣🤣👍
Comparing to his duet with Taeyeon, Chen sounds better her. I think it's because his voice is more powerful than Taeyeon while Liyin's voice is just as powerful as his. But all three of them have great voices
To be honest, it's hard to judge one of these versions being better over the others... But, I guess that the Chinese version was more...emotional? Maybe because it's live, but I felt like Chen and Zhang Li Yin really connected and built a climax in the song and it was amazing x
To add to that, Liyin was actually sick that day. That's why her face here is a bit puffier looking than how she typically looks because she went to the hospital to get a drip before the performance.
listening to this version again. I wish that SM would make more project for this duet. Liyin and Chen's voice are perfectly fit each other, the both of them have the same power in ballas songs. if SM would release and album of this duet, I will surely buy it without second thought. so please SM, don't waste their talent especially Liyin
Chen is my favourite member in exom but he gets the least attention which makes me wonder. In super junior m, ELFs hate members from china and doesn't support them, why is it that Chen is form Korea and yet has the least number of fans. CHEN FIGHTING
I agree with you, Chen has the least number of fans. However, it't not like what you think. In my opinion, the reason are: 1. Chen doesn't have a baby face like Luhan or Xiumin in ExoM. He has a manly face and most people (espically in Korea) like baby face idols. 2. The people who like Chen is in their 20's or mature, cause they admire his powerful voice and efforts. They have known how difficult did he experience when he choosed ExoM. 3. He can't speak Chinese. That's a problem. Luckily, he can understand now and maybe, we can wait 1 or 2 years to listen his Chinese. 4. In China, he has mature image and not usually smile but in Korea (his country), he smiles too much (>v
I don't think he's the least popular at all - just scan the crowd during their performances and it's not hard to spot a fair few Chen signs. He might not (yet) be one of the most popular members, but he's definitely not the least popular, either. I think the reason it still appears that he's not getting as much attention as some of the others is because his popularity has taken longer to build - it wasn't until Growl era that fans got to see the real bubbly & chatty Chen on Korean shows, and Miracles in December + Breath really got fans acquainted with Chen's talent (which was previously hidden). Just look at how quickly the number of Chen fansites have grown since December!
Chen is actually growing very popular in China. During his performance with Exo M on the Chinese Immortal Songs, he was actually the one member who got the most cheers singularly from the audience!
Other than Kyuhyun, I think Chen has now become the one Korean who can sing Mandarin with the best pronounciation to me. He has improved so much since his debut, even I can't help but feel proud for him!
YES ZHANG LIYIN IS BACK!!! Chen is an amazing and stable vocalist, but the Chinese version really shines because of her :) Ughh she deserves to get more of her own music out. Too much talent kept under a rock for too long....
I love the way Zhang Yi Lcontrolled her voice to due softly with Chen, thats so professional :(( She made it even deeper and more tormenting. It is truly a duet ballad love song. Red Velvet Teacher yyyyaaannngggg
SamMagic97 she sings this way lately... i think she actually changes her way of singing in general. i agree both of them sing this duet song very well. i actually miss hearing this.
To tell you the truth I'm not to fond of Chinese songs but Zhang Li Yin *o* Her voice is so smooth, sweet and powerful, it makes me like the Chinese version more than the others.
her voice is rich and more womanly, it's so sad that she's not well promote and she left now bcs the contract come to an end 😭😭😭 i wonder if she enter the final revision line up of SNSD, she must be really famous and as favorite as Taeyeon. Both are amazing.
Their voices took me on a rollercoaster ride... filled with emotions. At first, even though I didn't understand what they were singing about I felt their story!! Chen you blow us away everytime you sing & Zhang Liyin has a beautiful voice!! Both are talented singers!! Loved it!!
***** lol, ok dude. Many people make mistake considering him Chinese. I thought so in this case. XD. And you wrote Chenese. My bad. Sorry man. But that was a good wordplay.
+Nameless Kai explained before that he got his stage name because Kai means "open" in both Korean and Chinese and he wants Exo to open doors to all countries to share their music or something like that lol
Zhang Li Ying's voice control, technique, dynamism and vocal color are so good. She's really one of the best singers SM have. You can really hear in this song how she attacks the notes. Her voice is so powerful but she knows when to soften it to match the voice of her partner, damn, such amazing control. This basically proves how professional and how matured she is in singing. I can imagine her having duet to different type of voice because of her superb control. Really rare in SM. Too bad she's not promoted that much. Chen's voice is also awesome, definitely good for any type of songs but really shines more in ballads. :)
well done, Chen!!! Zhang Liyin sing pretty well too.. but it seems a little burden for her? maybe Taeyeon sing too well.. hahaha.. anyway, nice duet!!! (better than Jonghyun version.... >.
But I Think li yin sang this song with spiritful & evokable to the audience , not only this song but everysong of her cuz you just prefer Taeyeon than Liyin aspects of personal.
Even I love Taeyeon but I can't deny this version gets the best effect! Cuz' Chen and Li Yin' voices were combined perfectly! Korean Ver: JongHuyn didn't do it very well, his voice is a little bit lower than the song, so it's difficult for him to sing Japanese Ver: Krystal's voice may not really siuts the song even she has a great voice
The emotions they evoke when they sing cannot be compared with the others in sm ballad. This duo has the best compatibility and their voices are amazing!
Zhang Li Yin voice is so unique when she speak and the interview from The Show. Argh so cute and Chen too~! Pronunciation is getting better, throw hearts!
This song reminds me of Walt Disney songs, like A Whole New World (listen closely to the beginning of the chorus 1:20, doesn't it sound a bit like it? :3 ), but only the Chinese version, because of their vocals. Liyin's vocals are so clear and beautiful, like a Disney princess' singing voice, and Chen's like Disney prince's :). Can these two please cover a Disney song? I would die happy. T___T
Honestly it's such a waste that Zhang Li Yin staying with SM. She's hardly promoted or put in front of the Korean TV. I think that she should have waaaaay more publicity with such a talented voice.
Chen and Li Yin performance are way better than Jonghyun and Taeyeon......They really showed more interaction and emotion with each other during there performance.....And that's how duet song should be performed........
If it was a normal love song I'll be 100% in agreement with your comment but the Korean song is about a couple who just broke up, they're regretting their decision, but they don't want to let the other person know so instead of saying I’m sorry or let's get back together they just breath trough the phone. Do you think a couple like that would be making eye contact and laughing, no they'll be awkward and frustrated I think that's the feeling they were trying to transmit and you can see they're effort at the end when they're trying their best to not smile and have a grim face. (Taeyeon even had to close her eyes because she laugh easily, lol that dork :P).
I don't know if the Korean and Chinese version have the same lyrics because they sometime change them but the main theme should be the same, if we analyze just base on than Taeyeon and Jonghyun version feels more natural, it feels more like a sad ending witch go very well with the lyrics.
Yoyo Armani I disagree. Singing with emotion doesn't necessarily mean singing with happy emotions. Chen and Liyin perfectly portrayed the emotions of heartbreak and pain while singing to each other with a feeling of yearning and regret. They broke up, and are apart, but they still look to/for each other. And really, that's the interesting part of a love ballad performed by two people, their interaction/eye-contact and exchange. If that's not shown in the performance, what's the difference between the performance and the studio version of the song? Might as well just listen to it on iTunes if there's no interaction in the performance to make it stand out in some way.
gigo518 Ok I think I didn't express myself well on my last comment I didn't say vhen and Liyin sang happily, they expressed the sadness of song very well Chen voice is the best for me it suit the song perfectly and Zhen Liyin I didn't know about her till now but she's definitely on my radar now. What I was trying to say is that compared to Taeyeon and Jonghyun version, they looked more happy (their way of acting nor their singing) when you see their performance it feel like they broke up in the heat of the moment but now that they calmed down their love for each other is stronger than the reason they broke up so they're most likely geeting back together while in the korean version even thought they haven't forgotten each other at all they haven't gotten over the reason they broke up so it feels much sadder. As to the reason why the korean version lacked so much interaction is obviously because she was having problem with her earpiece, if you've seen some of Taeyeon live performance you should know she tend to close her eyes when she's singing high notes or difficult parts but in this case she had them close almost the whole time, if you looke close you will notice she start acting weird after pressing her earpiece that mean she couldn't hear herself very well that's why she lost track of her surrounding, this of course is not an excuse as she is a professional and she should be prepared yo handled all kind of situation but even if is not an excuse, it is the reason of why she did that. Now if you watch some of Taeyeon and Jonghyun lives on inkigayo(best one) or music bank you may see why I say their version suit better the lyrics(or the korean lyrics at least) or you might not as it just a feeling I get so it doesn't mean everyone will feel as I feel. I love both version thought because they feel loke to completely different songs to me (only when watching then live).
This is sure the BEST live! Have been waiting for this live T~T OMO,TOO PERFECT *sobs* Both of their voice matches SO well!Also,they can hit the note.I'm like ;-; 'I can't' Chen Chen,you amazing piece of human! Li Yin,nice voice you have!Wanted to hear your voice ever since I know you have a chi duet with Chen. These two just blew me away with their voices~~~
I get that everyone here thinks that this version sounds the best but am I the only one who thinks that the live version sounded better then the studio version?
dont worry.. its not only u.. me too.. i even converted this video into mp3. XD but i have the habit of listening live version when it sounded so much better than studio version.
you can tell artists are good if you prefer live over studio :D i can only listen to their live versions. studio version just pales in comparison (even though i know it's still them). i also convert the video lives to mp3! XD even though the sound quality is overall lower i just love the vocal quality so much more
I love how they smile at each other at the end. And I thought: THIS is what a duet is about. Singing together, connecting through music. I've always been a fan of Zhang Li Yin and was super happy when I knew Chen has a duet with her. I love his voice and I love it more when it blend perfectly with hers. This is definitely my favorite version of of the three. Chenchenn you're getting better! Fighting :)
I like this version the best, not to say that the other versions aren't good (I'm an Aff(x)tion actually). Something about Zhang LiYin's voice...... It's just so soothing and nice... Oh SM, you should promote her more!!!!
Ma'am I miss this duo so much Zhang Liyin was one of the best SM's vocalist ever, glad Jongdae had the honour to collaborate with her Wish SM can bring SM The Ballad back
This version is far the best for me among the others. So happy to have discovered this talented singer as Zhang Li Yin, her voice is so powerful and it matches very well with Chen's. This song makes me have chills. Good job.
Eliška Spejchalová well i mean i never said he doesn't like younger girls at all lol and he says he doesn't like calling older girls noona so... he probably likes both. Chensus does not discriminate age lol
Changmin fans made their own version with ZLY instead. although i like TVXQ, i still love this version the most. Chen interpretation excell far more than the others. maybe it's the expression, or his voice, or the emotion.... cuz i can't pinpoint why i love this the most, i'd just say the blending of Chen & ZLY's voices that got me loving this version.
this is a very good version. She has such power but also so much control in her voice. About matches the power Taeyeon in the Korean version. And Chen can just keep being amazing
I just love this version. SM, can we get more Zhang Liyin? Her vocals are amazing. I'm still kinda sad we weren't able to hear the Japanese version live :(
Also, the fact that she sung this when she had a fever and went to the hospital just before this performance. I don't is she is better than Taeyeon though. :P
im not saying that she is better than anyone artist in sm what im saying here that she is the ONE of best sm artist ASIDE from taeyeon and tiffany and other female vocalist in sm.
Honestly, the only problem with her (watch Zhang Liyin's old videos) is lack of stage presence, which is VERY unfortunate. Her voice is beautiful, and I'm glad she is no longer AWOL, because I miss her a heck of a lot.
It also amaze me how much SM waste their artist' talents,and you always hear people say SM artists are untalented pretty faces,as an SM artists stan I know better,and I know how SM misuses their talents.Listening to Zhang Li Ying,Zhou Mi from SJ-M singing for SM the ballad just reminded me of that.They have talents like J-min wasting away with no popularity,that kid Jino in the basement.And while I'm okay with it that Go Ara and Lee Yeon Hee are mainly actresses,these two girls' singing talents are completely ignored.What is SM doing? they deserve a beating whoever is in charge.Too much talent being passed by.
There's no doubt vocal wise this duo outshines the other two versions. I strongly believe Chen is born to be a ballad singer and Zhang Li Yin is just amazing. she has so much control, her techniques are great and can effortlessly put so much emotions into the song.
Before SM the ballad vol. 2 I actually haven't heard of Zhang Li Yin before. But after watching the MV n her performances with Chen, I just realized what I've been missing. Hope that SM will let her have her comeback this year cause I'm sure it's gonna be AWESOME.
just watched jonghyun and taeyeon perform breath on music core livestream... omg, still i had to come here directly after to listen to chen and liyin. shinee is my #1 bias but - sorry jjong T__T - chen and liyin are just TOO amazing singing this. i feel their emotion so much more than jjong/taeyeon duet. i really hope that chen/liyin can perform breath on a korean music show just once :
i don't get it. how can a live performance sounds a lots better than the recorded version?? and the feelsss... as if both of them were a lover & have just broke up that's why they could conveyed such emotion in the song. what's more can i say? exo stan & chocolyn are so proud of you two! ^^
Oh my God I can't lie this is the best duet here in the SM The Ballad. They comfortable with each other. It both pleasant to look and hear. Both of them nailed the song. No one voice over power each other. They sang with damn good comfortable chemistry. And they both got the feeling of this song. They understand how to express the song. Even I'm acknowledge a big fan of Taeyeon and Jonghyun but Chen and Ri In (Li Yin) did the best here. And also Changmin and Krystal ummm you know.
Zhang Li Yin got an angel voice,I have no idea why SM do not promote her!!She is very talented,I hope SM can organize more activities to her and stop wasting her talent
I've been following Liyin for years and despite a 5 year hiatus, she has never given up on her dreams and come back stronger and mature than ever. Such a nice performance from the two.
i just came here after listening to the live korean version, and i have to say, chen and liyin did much much better... in all aspects of the performance
I like when Zhang Li Yin speaks, her voice is soft then when she sings it's like woah o_o even Wang Lee Hom could not believe a voice came out of someone as young as herself back in the days & this has to be my fav. Version especially as these 2 look comfortable with each other; in an interview Chen mentioned her being a noona yet he wants to protect her like a younger sister & how they spent a lot of time together in order to perfect Chen's Chinese ^___^ ahhh so sweet this duet
***** u could check it out from exoticsub's channel. it's called IQIYI interview :)
The way she was looking at him, especially near the end, was heartwarming. To me, it seemed like she was smiling at him and telling him that he did well ^^ I loved this version. Chen's pronunciation sounds magnificent and Zhang Li Yin's voice is amazing
One of the things I love about this duet is you know Jongdae's not holding back. He doesn't have to worry about overpowering powerhouse Liyin. Flawless performance. Seamless harmonization. These two should be each other's official duet partners.

I'm so impressed by Chen's mandarin :) His pronounciation improves after every performance! and I can't imagine how difficult it must be for him to memorize the lyrics.. kudos to him.
Agree with everything you said... I can't imagine how difficult to memorize all the lyrics for him :'( However now he is wonderful whenever he sings in Mandarin and Korean :-)
Karen S. And i think he was so lucky to has been a member of exo-m.. at least he knows how to be friend w/ mandarin 😅😅
Karen S. What’s hard is he also sang it with so much emotion even though it’s in a different language
Then u must think how much difficult chinese trainer at SM to learn korean and practice
@@emmacho6470 ofc that's great he's in EXO-M and having great time with them... also kudos to chinese / non korean trainee who must learn korean
...And fans who can memorize all of their idol's songs even though the languange is different🤣🤣👍
Comparing to his duet with Taeyeon, Chen sounds better her. I think it's because his voice is more powerful than Taeyeon while Liyin's voice is just as powerful as his. But all three of them have great voices
Really. Of the 3 language covers, this duo is the best. The best harmony and chemistry.
To be honest, it's hard to judge one of these versions being better over the others...
But, I guess that the Chinese version was more...emotional? Maybe because it's live, but I felt like Chen and Zhang Li Yin really connected and built a climax in the song and it was amazing x
SM should treat Zhang LiYin better, her voice is just amazing! LiYin fighting!
I'm really impressed by the female vocalist. Chen's veins are popping out while homegirl is just chillin' as she performs. So effortless.
To add to that, Liyin was actually sick that day. That's why her face here is a bit puffier looking than how she typically looks because she went to the hospital to get a drip before the performance.
listening to this version again. I wish that SM would make more project for this duet. Liyin and Chen's voice are perfectly fit each other, the both of them have the same power in ballas songs. if SM would release and album of this duet, I will surely buy it without second thought. so please SM, don't waste their talent especially Liyin
I like this version better than the korean one.. that woman's voice gave justice to the song...
Mei Chu her name is zhang li yin
Agree, I think it's better than Korean version
Mei Chu her name is Zhang Li Yin
I love Chen voice his Chinese have improved so much over the year!
I cant wait until the day he speaks Chinese fluently!
Chen is my favourite member in exom but he gets the least attention which makes me wonder. In super junior m, ELFs hate members from china and doesn't support them, why is it that Chen is form Korea and yet has the least number of fans. CHEN FIGHTING

Other than Kyuhyun, I think Chen has now become the one Korean who can sing Mandarin with the best pronounciation to me. He has improved so much since his debut, even I can't help but feel proud for him!
I didn't know that Kyuhyun sings in Mandarin,but I just checked a video where he talks with Chinese people,like talks
I hope chen can speak well of chinese 😍😍
His pronounciation in this live is much better than the studio version!!
YES ZHANG LIYIN IS BACK!!! Chen is an amazing and stable vocalist, but the Chinese version really shines because of her :) Ughh she deserves to get more of her own music out. Too much talent kept under a rock for too long....
I love the way Zhang Yi Lcontrolled her voice to due softly with Chen, thats so professional :(( She made it even deeper and more tormenting. It is truly a duet ballad love song. Red Velvet Teacher yyyyaaannngggg

I wish Zhang Li Yin get to dolled up like Taeyeon T___T. She sings so well yet is so underated
Anh Nguyen forget about the techniques she sings with her heart out i trembled while she was singing that's what it means to be a singer for me.
i think she isnt underrated. but she is so popular in china
Not really
her voice is rich and more womanly, it's so sad that she's not well promote and she left now bcs the contract come to an end 😭😭😭 i wonder if she enter the final revision line up of SNSD, she must be really famous and as favorite as Taeyeon. Both are amazing.
Their voices took me on a rollercoaster ride... filled with emotions. At first, even though I didn't understand what they were singing about I felt their story!! Chen you blow us away everytime you sing & Zhang Liyin has a beautiful voice!! Both are talented singers!! Loved it!!
Chen's Chinese is so good! Live ver makes me want to cry.TTTTTTTT.TTTTTTTTT
and Chen is not even Chinese :')
+nati60606 umm,no. He is actually Korean(real name Kim Jongdae). He just used to promote with Exo-M. Xiumin is also Korean.
***** lol, ok dude. Many people make mistake considering him Chinese. I thought so in this case. XD. And you wrote Chenese. My bad. Sorry man. But that was a good wordplay.
*****
Lol. I didn't mind. I made the mistake in the 1st place.
+Anna Pal Ikr, and his Chinese pronunciation is great! So proud of him. :')
+Nameless Kai explained before that he got his stage name because Kai means "open" in both Korean and Chinese and he wants Exo to open doors to all countries to share their music or something like that lol
Zhang Li Ying's voice control, technique, dynamism and vocal color are so good. She's really one of the best singers SM have. You can really hear in this song how she attacks the notes.

I can imagine her having duet to different type of voice because of her superb control. Really rare in SM. Too bad she's not promoted that much. Chen's voice is also awesome, definitely good for any type of songs but really shines more in ballads. :)
Chinese version is always with expression and the lyrics makes the song feel deeper ;)
CHEN was so young back then but his voice was already a powerhouse! That's something anyone can learn to have. It's pure T-A-L-E-N-T. 💗
Seriously.. Zhang Li Yin need a Comeback!! ~💪💪💪💪💪
chen you are so goregous.
jongdae~amazing voice!!!!
well done, Chen!!!
Zhang Liyin sing pretty well too.. but it seems a little burden for her? maybe Taeyeon sing too well.. hahaha..
anyway, nice duet!!! (better than Jonghyun version.... >.
no, her voice makes you feel so, i dont know but sometimes liyin's voice is quite...burdensome like singing opera
But I Think li yin sang this song with spiritful & evokable to the audience , not only this song but everysong of her cuz you just prefer Taeyeon than Liyin aspects of personal.
Her voice is beautiful
Even I love Taeyeon but I can't deny this version gets the best effect!
Cuz' Chen and Li Yin' voices were combined perfectly!
Korean Ver: JongHuyn didn't do it very well, his voice is a little bit lower than the song, so it's difficult for him to sing
Japanese Ver: Krystal's voice may not really siuts the song even she has a great voice
would it have been better if it's Ryeowook and Luna doing the Korean version?? The idea just hit me~ =P
The emotions they evoke when they sing cannot be compared with the others in sm ballad. This duo has the best compatibility and their voices are amazing!
I love this version the most... They melt my heart, especially, Chen...OMG

zhangliyin,i‘ll support you 4ever..PLEASE CB!
am i the only one who thinks chinese version is the best? they connect so well much better then Taeyeon and Jonhyun even tho they sing great too!
I love zhang lyin singing
Honestly it's such a waste that Zhang Li Yin staying with SM. She's hardly promoted or put in front of the Korean TV. I think that she should have waaaaay more publicity with such a talented voice.
CHEN's the best!
Chen and Li Yin performance are way better than Jonghyun and Taeyeon......They really showed more interaction and emotion with each other during there performance.....And that's how duet song should be performed........

Now if you watch some of Taeyeon and Jonghyun lives on inkigayo(best one) or music bank you may see why I say their version suit better the lyrics(or the korean lyrics at least) or you might not as it just a feeling I get so it doesn't mean everyone will feel as I feel. I love both version thought because they feel loke to completely different songs to me (only when watching then live).
zhang li yin... please come back soon.... T.T
This is sure the BEST live!
Have been waiting for this live T~T OMO,TOO PERFECT *sobs*
Both of their voice matches SO well!Also,they can hit the note.I'm like ;-; 'I can't'
Chen Chen,you amazing piece of human!
Li Yin,nice voice you have!Wanted to hear your voice ever since I know you have a chi duet with Chen.
These two just blew me away with their voices~~~
Chen's Chinese has improved a lot
You know they're treasures when the lives sound just as good as the studio recordings.
THE BEST!!!! AMAZINGG!!! KIM JONG DAE ZHANG LI YIN WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
I get that everyone here thinks that this version sounds the best but am I the only one who thinks that the live version sounded better then the studio version?
dont worry.. its not only u.. me too.. i even converted this video into mp3. XD but i have the habit of listening live version when it sounded so much better than studio version.
Me too..their live is much better than the studio ver. I think.
you can tell artists are good if you prefer live over studio :D i can only listen to their live versions. studio version just pales in comparison (even though i know it's still them). i also convert the video lives to mp3! XD even though the sound quality is overall lower i just love the vocal quality so much more
this, and set me free are soooo much better live
GREAT CONNECTION!! .. I luv ZLY vibrato!! :)
เพราะมากกคือดีงามเลิศที่สุด อินเนอร์มาเต็มเสียงเข้าคู่กันเลิศเลอที่สุด
beautiful song
Perfect Duo
Yup, live performance is better than the recorded one. Thumbs up! Chen Chen Chen!
DAMN Chen sounds awesome here!!!!!! And I'm loving Zhang Li Yin's full tone as well =D!! Loving the Chinese version
I love how they smile at each other at the end. And I thought: THIS is what a duet is about. Singing together, connecting through music. I've always been a fan of Zhang Li Yin and was super happy when I knew Chen has a duet with her. I love his voice and I love it more when it blend perfectly with hers. This is definitely my favorite version of of the three. Chenchenn you're getting better! Fighting :)
I wish SM will put this on spotify
중국어로 불러서 들을 때 뜻은 바로 알 수 없지만 뜻 해석 찾아보니까 가사가 정말 예쁘더라,,, 개인적으로 둘이 목소리 합이 너무 좋음
Chen chen love his voice :)
I like this version the best, not to say that the other versions aren't good (I'm an Aff(x)tion actually). Something about Zhang LiYin's voice...... It's just so soothing and nice... Oh SM, you should promote her more!!!!
Chen, i miss you so much. I love you. Praying for your happiness, ALWAYS.
Why do I feel this version more than Korean one...She needs an album like REALLY Sm you can promote her in China of you think she can't in Korea :D
Ma'am I miss this duo so much
Zhang Liyin was one of the best SM's vocalist ever, glad Jongdae had the honour to collaborate with her
Wish SM can bring SM The Ballad back
I'm thrilled!! such a beautiful harmony...I think Chinese version is much better than the Korean version! especially in the female singer part
Zhang Li Yin's voice is pure beauty
장리인 부른게 개인적으로 더 좋았음ㅜ
I like this version the most,, omg this gonna make me cry
This version is far the best for me among the others. So happy to have discovered this talented singer as Zhang Li Yin, her voice is so powerful and it matches very well with Chen's. This song makes me have chills. Good job.
둘다너무예쁘고잘생겻다..ㅜㅜ
this was done SO well!! i like it better than the korean ver. tbh. This woman's voice is so perf, as well as Chen's
Im impressed by Chen's vocals, beautiful.
I love their duet too
People talking about Zhang Liyin being too old for him when Jongdae totally has a thing for noonas lmao
+Nurul Omar Lol it'd be like Taeyeon with Baekhyun tho, she is only 3 years older than jongdae
+Nurul Omar lol yeah but I don't think that's true anymore... Lately he is going around saying that he wants fans call him oppa lol
Eliška Spejchalová well i mean i never said he doesn't like younger girls at all lol and he says he doesn't like calling older girls noona so... he probably likes both. Chensus does not discriminate age lol
What the f? Are they marrying or just singing?
@@EllieS3125 n now hes married to smone older than him hahaah he do like noonas
Facial expressions of Chen🔥
Changmin fans made their own version with ZLY instead.
although i like TVXQ, i still love this version the most.
Chen interpretation excell far more than the others.
maybe it's the expression, or his voice, or the emotion....
cuz i can't pinpoint why i love this the most, i'd just say the blending of Chen & ZLY's voices that got me loving this version.
this is a very good version. She has such power but also so much control in her voice. About matches the power Taeyeon in the Korean version. And Chen can just keep being amazing
I just love this version. SM, can we get more Zhang Liyin? Her vocals are amazing.
I'm still kinda sad we weren't able to hear the Japanese version live :(
Breath-taking performance!!!
that girl brilliant voice i thnk she is the best vocalist in sm aside frm taeyeon and tiffany i like her voice so much :) i like chen also
Also, the fact that she sung this when she had a fever and went to the hospital just before this performance. I don't is she is better than Taeyeon though. :P
And J-Min.
im not saying that she is better than anyone artist in sm what im saying here that she is the ONE of best sm artist ASIDE from taeyeon and tiffany and other female vocalist in sm.
@shigh96 well everyone have their different opinions haha
Honestly, the only problem with her (watch Zhang Liyin's old videos) is lack of stage presence, which is VERY unfortunate. Her voice is beautiful, and I'm glad she is no longer AWOL, because I miss her a heck of a lot.
It feels like their voices are meant for each other.
It also amaze me how much SM waste their artist' talents,and you always hear people say SM artists are untalented pretty faces,as an SM artists stan I know better,and I know how SM misuses their talents.Listening to Zhang Li Ying,Zhou Mi from SJ-M singing for SM the ballad just reminded me of that.They have talents like J-min wasting away with no popularity,that kid Jino in the basement.And while I'm okay with it that Go Ara and Lee Yeon Hee are mainly actresses,these two girls' singing talents are completely ignored.What is SM doing? they deserve a beating whoever is in charge.Too much talent being passed by.
how can i don't like this just like others i also think that this is the best version. more live of this will be good for chen and zhang.
These two sounds best live, more in sync with each other and so passionate
เพราะมากเลยจงแดด ฟังแล้วอินมากกก
I'm half Chinese, and seriously, I'm so proud of Chen 😊. His pronunciations were good. 👏🏻
There's no doubt vocal wise this duo outshines the other two versions. I strongly believe Chen is born to be a ballad singer and Zhang Li Yin is just amazing. she has so much control, her techniques are great and can effortlessly put so much emotions into the song.
ZHANG LI YIN'S VOICE ! PERFECT ! AND WITH THE BLEND OF CHEN'S , SO PERFECT ! :D
Before SM the ballad vol. 2 I actually haven't heard of Zhang Li Yin before. But after watching the MV n her performances with Chen, I just realized what I've been missing.
Hope that SM will let her have her comeback this year cause I'm sure it's gonna be AWESOME.
Wow!! Why do I feel this is so amazing? Too perfect maybe.. Love both of them~
I think this is the best version aaaa chen! Daebak!
just watched jonghyun and taeyeon perform breath on music core livestream... omg, still i had to come here directly after to listen to chen and liyin. shinee is my #1 bias but - sorry jjong T__T - chen and liyin are just TOO amazing singing this. i feel their emotion so much more than jjong/taeyeon duet. i really hope that chen/liyin can perform breath on a korean music show just once :
They have. They performed on SBS The Show and Simply Kpop. :)
ohh! thanks i will look that up! ^^
This video is gold. Love this song so much, and their performance is just breathtaking.
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL
this is unbelievably amazing
i don't get it. how can a live performance sounds a lots better than the recorded version?? and the feelsss... as if both of them were a lover & have just broke up that's why they could conveyed such emotion in the song. what's more can i say? exo stan & chocolyn are so proud of you two! ^^
good performance!
Oh my God I can't lie this is the best duet here in the SM The Ballad. They comfortable with each other. It both pleasant to look and hear. Both of them nailed the song. No one voice over power each other. They sang with damn good comfortable chemistry. And they both got the feeling of this song. They understand how to express the song. Even I'm acknowledge a big fan of Taeyeon and Jonghyun but Chen and Ri In (Li Yin) did the best here. And also Changmin and Krystal ummm you know.
Zhang Li Yin got an angel voice,I have no idea why SM do not promote her!!She is very talented,I hope SM can organize more activities to her and stop wasting her talent
I'm fan of taeyeon and krystal
l love whole songs but chinese ver is best for they fit each other so well
Love u chen
NO ONE SCREAMED FOR LI YIN WHEN SHE STARTED SINGING
ITS OK I DID
BEHIND THE SCREEN
//cryING
amazing vocals!!
I fall in love with his voice and her voice. Even through i hate sm but i am a kind of person who admit if the artists have talented
I've been following Liyin for years and despite a 5 year hiatus, she has never given up on her dreams and come back stronger and mature than ever. Such a nice performance from the two.
Umm excuse you Chen, I don't remember anyone giving you permission to be perfect.
+Hannah Burch he gave himself permission because Chen don't need nobody else's permission
Angeline Ma lol why r u being salty, can't u tell its a joke?
i just came here after listening to the live korean version, and i have to say, chen and liyin did much much better... in all aspects of the performance
