I LOVE this performance! I've always had eclectic taste in music as well, and i do love classical music and orchestral pieces. This was so well done. I wish there were more songs like this that combined classical music with modern pop or hip hop, it makes for such a beautiful but intricate sound to listen to.

Watching all those epic performances must be hard for the judges

So the captions were actually a little misleading for you, lol. They referred to "Move" as being "by Max Changmin" purely as a joke because Changmin decided to imitate the dance to introduce it. It's not actually his song. "Move" is a solo song by Taemin who's the youngest member of SHINee (btw, it's pronounced like shiny, since i've heard you mention you weren't sure how it was pronounced). SHINee is a legendary group, honestly. I'm not really a fan per se, but I have a lot of respect for them. They're one of the only groups that have been around for almost 15 years and is actually still relevant and popular. They've been through a lot as a group, including one of their members committing suicide back in 2017. Super sad time. Everything in the kpop industry just froze, for like a week. Even groups that were supposed to have a comeback that week (including BTS i think) postponed out of respect for the funeral, which almost everyone in the industry attended. And yet somehow, the rest of the members decided to stick together and they are still going strong 5 years later. I can't believe it's been 5 years already. Crazy. Anyways, that was a tangent. But Taemin has a very successful solo career as well. He's kind of a legend in and of himself.

Behind Hongjoong when he starts his first rap you can see other dancers in costumes from their previous kingdom performances, so this stage is really telling their kingdom journey as well. I remember when this first aired I was in the middle of exam studying and was trying to watch it on my cell phone in the library. It's much better on a bigger screen ;D

Thank you for the pronunciation help and for pointing out how they were just joking around. I was thinking that was maybe the case after a little while, but I wasn't sure. And wow, I didn't know that about SHINee. I'll hopefully be able to check out and learn some more about them.

So cute to see you fan-girling all through this episode. This was another great performance. Kingdom was filled with them. But my favs are the Mayfly-teams. I love fusion, in music as well. And love how they combined their own song with opera. La Poem are fantastic vocalist with clear classical technique. Really good. Again, like with Ikon bringing in Lisa, I wonder if in the end it was a smart decision to bring in a famous vocalist group. Not sure if that was what worked against them in the results. I think they deserved better than they got. The beginning made me rather sad. I can't imagine how horrible it must have been for them, not being able to perform. WEll, maybe I can a little. I have friends in the musical / music industry, who couldn't perform. And they are not big names whatsoever so struggled financially...and mentally because of that. And if I look at myself, I know I am not the type to cry much at the end of a show. I've had cast members bursting out in tears and falling in each other's arms and I never could. But the first show we did when we were allowed to perform again....I had tears falling down my face. It was THAT emotional to be able to be in front of the audience again. So yes, I can relate a bit. And as you said, it all happened SO sudden. The show before that show for us, was the last weekend before the lockdown started here. And we were just happily doing our thing. Covid was something that was a tiny worry pushed to the back of our minds...and then it was there. So surreal that one weekend we were on stage and the next on lockdown. Anyway, I do think that through covid we international fans were spoiled a little, because there was so much streaming of concerts and fanmeets etc etc.
