    From rookies to hotties ♥ I just wish SM would stop using Yoona as a special guest in
    every MV they make. I mean, I have nothing against her, but SM has so
    many other beauties…ah, and the ‘matrix effect’ is annoying too.

    Nice PV but its not my style of music, their Japanese speaking skills are pretty decent though.

    I love it.

    The storyline is nice , for once, kpop mvs have a “storyline” to them and not just them singing or dancing.
    The dance is really cool, but the song isn’t really my thing. It sort of gets boring.

    Their Japanese is pretty good though, understandable which is nice :).

    I sorta wish they used a Japanese girl since they are debuting in Japan. Just my opinion though, it would have been nicer.

    Kya~! I love Taemin’s hair like this. And Minho is officially too skinny to be wearing skinnies. I don’t think i like either video versions more than the other, but this version  didn’t show Minho rapping his part. Is my bias obvious? :P

    A gorgeous video. And i think it does sound sweeter in Japanese for some reason. 

  • http://twitter.com/shixie03 Shixie Li

    I’m loving this. this sounds really good.

  • http://twitter.com/shixie03 Shixie Li

    Yeah. I would love them to be a Japanese girl in this PV. But I think Yoona is also a great choice.

  • http://twitter.com/shixie03 Shixie Li

    I’m with you! I watched this multiple times.

  • CanadianGirlKpopLuv

    well they probably put yoona in to promote SNSD since they debuted/are debuting (not sure which im not really a fan) and also having yoona in it makes SNSD fans want to go see their mv and shinee might get more fans (or atleast thats what i think since it makes the most sense :P)

    ***Edit*** sorry meant to post this to shixie li xD

  • neemy

    i like it. the mv was awesome and this song actually sounds good in japanese… it didnt sound funny or anything :D or maybe i love shinee too much xD

  • Anonymous

    Same here!

  • blahblahbah

    The extra sound effects and the matrix shot was lol to me haha. But I still like the song.

  • Anonymous

    i love shinee i really dont think this song is bad or anything
    but i’m still wondering why they chose this for their japan debut.
    i was expecting something more flashier.

    kyea!!! love both versions but i think minho should get more lines……

  • http://twitter.com/nunu_dyania Dyania ハナーフィ

    YES! i thought they use a Japanese girl or maybe one of the girls in AKB48 or maybe Hirokita Maki, buttt they didnt :( oh well. but the song was awesome though.

  • http://twitter.com/nunu_dyania Dyania ハナーフィ

    WOW. so good. and Taemin’s EXPLOSIVE dance is woah. but i agree, minho should get more lines. overall, it may be one of the best korean-song-translated-to-Japanese song, ive heard so far.

  • http://twitter.com/arteech0kee Althea Daculan

    I like both! I don’t care, it’s still SHINee at the end of the day!
    But wow, they’ve really evolved to men!

  • bm

    What did they do to onew’s hair? His hair before this was the best. At least taemin finally looks like a boy with his hair. And lol. The karate chop sound effect is killing me. Overall, it’s a very cute PV. I prefer their clothes and the dancing in this PV than the original, but I liked the “story” of the original better.

  • http://twitter.com/Ren_Eleven Ren Eleven

    SHINee, GOGOGOGOGO!
    Shawols are behind you supporting you! *^*
    /goes to REPLAY again hehehe

  • bm

    Lucifer? I don’t think it would suit Japan. I think debuting with Replay is fine. But if they have to choose other songs, I think that Juliette or Love like Oxygen would be good because those songs sound like Michael Jackson songs and Japan loves MJ.

  • syimato

    Minho’s hair makes him look like a poodle =/

  • dragonheart

    loved it! how was their Japanese? i’m don’t really speak Japanese so i don’t know if they did a decent job with their pronunciation. 

  • dahlers

    loved it both. this has a more mature feel to it compared to the first one! Go Team Shinee!!! and <3 u Yoona :))

  • atarashi.michi

    wow, i actually rele rele loved this <
    i usually hate remakes, but this sounded rele good.
    im loving jjong's hair here~
    the mv feels so different.
    in the original, they were so young, and here they've matured
    i feel like this music video would have not worked if they were still using noona neomu yeoppo.
    the original story was better, but this wasnt bad.
    key with glasses was cute <3
    they made the right choice in using replay for their debut over something like lucifer.
    it was sweet <3
    loving it~
    shawols are supporting you guys!

    I hope Shinee maintains this sound in Japan. Seems fitting for the market, but also for the boys. R&B suits them better i think. 

  • brontesaurus

    havent looked up much of their stuff before, but theyre really cute ^^. their style suits japan i hope they do well :3

  • http://twitter.com/sofiavanilla Vilma

    I hate the pronunciation. It’s just .. horrible.

  • AGIL

    haha,love how they divided jjongs parts and gave them to taemin, who didn’t even really sing in the original and now he has like legit parts…that is too funny. He must be the most popular one in japan or something for them to promote him like that by giving him jjongs parts. He sounded good though, so no complaints from me. Im glad they are slowly getting away from the jjong and onew show that their songs normally are; it was what always slightly irked me about shinee, its like you can see all the talent and everyone is always talking about all their talent but every song basically turns into the jjong and onew show where both of them are basically singing the whole song(belting and adlibs included-minho I won’t count cause he raps). I like that they are incorporating taemin into the singing more. hope key can get more parts also. 

  • Sony1Mx

    good sound.. the jp version is cute and wow more sexy jejeje but the first is my favorite and korea version is most lovely and i like more with victoria ^^
    i missed noona neomu yeppo

  • http://twitter.com/KeyLovesMegga Megawati Chen

    I miss the old SHINee T^T but this MV is just awesome! SHINee did great ^^ and I love when jonghyun was dancing and yoona came in! haha it’s awkward! :p

  • beltofvenus

    This is the first Japanese song from a kpop artist that I understand every single word without relying on lyrics. I watched because of Yoona but ended up falling in love with Taemin lol. Miss his mushroom-head days but the new Taemin is sizzling hot.

    I like both versions really much! (♥o♥)

  • Lei Di Angelo

    because i heard the korean version firs,t i think i like the k-version more. HOWEVER, i love this music video more …. Ever since SHINee debuted, tehir hairstyles right now are the best. Key and Tae are totally rockin’ those hair … and of course, Yoona ♥

  • Anonymous

    whyyy are they so good?! ahh I really love it, they all look so handsome, I miss the Replay choreography, I remember I was stunned when I saw them debuting in Music Bank *was new to kpop* i was like “How come they dance like that?! so awesome *_*” ahh this brings the old memories back :D! I love it! SHINee fighto!

    It’s by far not the worst pronounciation, though… For people who are still learning it, they’re actually not that bad.

  • Anonymous

    It actually doesn’t matter with which song they debut in Japan, because the Japanese already know all of them in Korea.

  • Anonymous

    Not bad, not bad:) Of course, they have an accent, like all people who learn a foreign language at that age, but they did a good job:)

  • Anonymous

    Why not? At the concert in December, the people went crazy over Lucifer. As a debut song, I was expecting the one they sang in Japanese during the concert, though…

    SHINee got the look, voice, dance, entertainment skills~ just a perfect idol group!
    p.s. YOONA NEOMU YEPPEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! definitely the most beautiful woman in this world~ <3 gosh~ even though she is not my favorite bias in snsd, but she is definitely the most beautiful woman i ever seen~ <

  • http://twitter.com/TheWuppie Aimée Verbunt

    Japanese, because I can’t understand Korean. This way I can at least understand what they’re singing about.

  • Jovan Williams

    I can understand Japanese just fine, but I feel the lyrics sound a lot better in Korean. To me, the lyricism lost a lot of its flow and fluidity because of the language change… Not to mention, the MV was hard to watch.

  • BlossomsJae

    I like the Japanese version better. :) Hope the boys’ promotions are going well… 

  • Gwen1

    that’s good. For the music video, Victoria was better cause she gives innocent look and feeling. Yoona doesn’t give that feeling.

  • Mochi-chan

    i liked Vic better but i guess it’s SM method to do 2 promotion at the same time. i don’t think the japanese ver is about a “noona” though….

  • Anonymous

    This boys are really talented.. I hope they have the chance to show everyone in japan their talents and how nice, funny and cute they are. I think people in japan will love them ^^

  • Anonymous

    are they keeping their korean names, or they have japanese stage names now?

  • niteangel

    Taemin got more parts because he’s the most fluent in Japanese out of all the Shinee members

  • Miki165

    Ok. First of all I’m not digging the song (I loved the Korean version, but the Japanese one… Ugh). But I think the video prolly makes up for it :D I mean, everyone’s SO GORGEOUS that I almost can’t stand it ;__; I had a lil’ shock at the beginning when I heard Taemin singing what was Jonghyun’s part in the Korean version, but oh well. And Yoona <3 Gorgeous can't even describe her. Still I miss Victoria as the noona ._. Also Yoona isn't really their noona (like the rhyme? xD), since she's same age al Jonghyun and younger than Onew, but I guess her beauty makes up for it all :D

  • faifantc

    I so agree. Every word of what you said. <3

  • Jumanax91

    both of the vers sound great but  i still prefer the K.ver, they looked so cute back then in the korean MV n here they look so hot :) but i still prefer Vic as their noona  :P

  • http://twitter.com/rhennsr rhennsr

    I don’t dislike Taemin, but I don’t think they should’ve changed Jonghyuns part…I know Taemins most popular in Japan, but it just doesn’t have the same charm as the Korean mv. It had a storyline of 5 guys falling for a Noona, then all the dancing…it seemed more ’innocent’. This mv…something just feels missing, Yoona is beautiful but she shouldn’t of been the Noona, I don’t see the same chemistry, as with Vic. The background and the clothes, seems more suited to Juliette rather than Replay…I still like the mv, but I don’t think its better than the Korean version. To me, it just seems to be a few individual shots with Yoona, then some dancing…and thats it. Wouldn’t be it nice if they did a different storyline or with well known Japanese girl? Don’t hate Yoona or SHINees mv, just an honest opinion…great mv, but could’ve been better.

  • MinahMyu

    …because having the most commented/popular article isn’t really important.. .and it’s a bit annoying when someone has to

    make a

    new comment

    on every sentence

    or phrase

    they right

    just to boost popularity

    and also

    if they make

    a typo

    as if an edit

    button

    doesn’t exist

     (me just typing this was annoying sheesh)

  • Guest

    at least they didn’t half ass the PV unlike a certain group.

  • chocoxxxholic

    Lol…matrix effects.
    Key is a fashion designer, completely fits the diva…hehe
    Ummm….song didn’t really do it for me though. I love the Korean one, particularly because of Jonghyun (that man can SING!), and well, you can tell here how the different language has affected them vocal-wise, Replay here is much softer to the ears than when it’s sung in Korean. In Korean it’s more powerful.
    Eh…just my little grain of salt.
    Either way, good luck on the charts ^^

  • shinester

    the korean version sounds better ;____;
    but whoawhoawhoa the boys are looking good and GAHH YOONA freaking definition of gorgeousness :’o

  • imestelle

    This PV isn’t about noona anymore but about 5 boys falling in love with a beautiful adorable girl. Hence I think Yoona suits more to this PV. Victoria is good looking too though. But….Yoona!!! hha. too pretty :)

  • Anonymous

    wow… this is so cute!*o* I knew their pv wouldn’t disappoint (although my opinion regarding the weirdness os the song remains unchanged o__o) It is really cheerful and colorful, but I think overall i like the korean version better (the original one usually is…) maybe because they were younger or maybe because that’s the version I’m used to!xD And it has been sooo long since I’ve seen Taemin dance this choreography so enthusiastically! I love them now but I miss the fresh, carefree look from their debut days so much!

    p.s. …Yoona is pretty in this pv but I still think they shoud’ve kept Victoria!>.<

  • Inas Haryanto

    I think they should’ve used a japanese girl rather than yoona, i dont have a problem with yoona, but i was hoping for someone like yuna ito or something

  • iHeartHyde

    they have it all! They are young, talented, have AWESOME voices, nice dances, and style!

    Me too, I was hoping it would be someone from AKB (even though I don’t think that’s likely) but Korean groups always seem to have that “border” between Kpop and Jpop when they debut. It would have been nice to mix it up a bit.

    Yes SNSD Yoona is really popular these days..but she really suits the music video.
