YesAsia Editorial Description

SHINee declares 2009 their year with the new mini-album 2009, Year of Us! Five months after Romeo, the boys trade in their colorful threads for monochrome tones and sharper, more mature looks that highlight their effortless charm and charisma. SHINee's new title song Ring Ding Dong is a bopping "Afro-electro" number that combines pop electronica and African congo beats. The song likens the moment of falling in love with bells ringing in the head. The mini-album comes with five other hot new songs including leader Onew's first solo number "The Name I Loved" (Track 6), an alternative rock ballad featuring Kim Yeon Woo.

SHINee, 강렬한 카리스마로 파격 변신 컴백!
19일, 세 번째 미니 앨범출시! ‘Ring Ding Dong’으로 가요계 강타 예고!

컨템퍼러리 밴드 SHINee가 오는 19일 세 번째 미니 앨범 ’2009, Year Of Us’를 발표하며
화려하게 컴백한다.
이번 미니 앨범은 지난 5월 25일 발매한 두 번째 미니 앨범 ‘로미오’ 이후 약 5개월 만에
발표하는 새 음반으로, SHINee가 데뷔 곡 ‘누난 너무 예뻐’ 부터 ‘산소 같은 너’, ‘아.미.고’
‘줄리엣’까지 히트 행진을 이어왔던 만큼, 발매하자마자 폭발적인 반응을 얻을 것으로
예상된다.

또한 차세대 패셔니스타 SHINee답게 스타일도 파격적으로 변신, 네오 고딕 스타일을
가미한 글램&시크 룩을 선보여, 모노 톤의 시크한 의상과 화려한 오브제를 사용,
자유분방하면서도 몽환적인 느낌의 스타일링으로 변신해, 앨범 발매 전 공개된
사진만으로도 화제가 되고 있다.

타이틀 곡 ‘Ring Ding Dong’은 아프리칸 콩고드럼의 그루브, 현대적인 컬러의 일렉트로
신디가 결합된 편곡으로 완성된 Afro-electro 장르의 노래.
가사에는 이성에게 자신도 모르게 빠져드는 상황을 “나 왜이래”라고 하소연하듯
고백하는 내용이 담겨있으며, 사랑에 빠진 순간을 머릿속에서 벨이 울린다는 만화 같은
상상력으로 풀어내 ‘Ring Ding Dong’으로 표현했다.

‘Ring Ding Dong’이라는 독특한 제목, 강하고 중독적인 사운드가 듣는 이의 귀를
단번에 사로잡는 이 곡은 기존에 보여줬던 SHINee의 컬러풀하고 경쾌한 이미지가 아닌
강렬하고 카리스마 넘치는 새로운 모습을 보여주기에 충분하다.

한편, 이번 음반에는 타이틀 곡 ‘Ring Ding Dong’, 온유의 첫 솔로 곡으로 가수 김연우가
피처링으로 참여한 ‘내가 사랑했던 이름’ 등 SHINee의 다양한 매력이 담긴 6곡이
수록되어 있어 뜨거운 반응이 기대된다.

fantastic elastic! :P Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
i have been anticipating receiving this album ever since i knew it was on yesasia to pre-order!!!
being a hardcore SHINee fan, i enjoy everything they produce.
and i'm telling you, if you LOVE SHINee and your don't buy this mini album, you're missing out on something!!!
The first time i heard Ring Ding Dong i repeated it 100 times in a row. It was just so catchy and addictive!Though my friends thought the "fantastic elastic" bit was "lame", i LOVED it!!Y.O.U. is also a really good song!! the "nothing can stop me from loving you~ you~ you~" is so soothing to listen to (:
Another one of my favourite tracks from this mini album is JoJo, there's something about this song that appeals to me. It's also very catchy and all of their voices sound amazing!!!Get Down...well Minho and Key definitely SHINE!!!! even though i don't understand the language i can feel the improvement in their rapping ^^
haha i must comment on Onew's solo though, 'Naega Sarang Haedeon Ireum'...it's such a beautiful song and his vocals with Kim Yeon Woo intertwine perfectly (:
this is a great album ^^
so 10/10 for me (:


it really is music to my ears ^^

Y.O.U (Year of Us) Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I made a mistake earlier when I said SHINee Girl sounds like their other songs - it doesn't. It has a somewhat chaotic feel to it...makes me think of roulettes for some reason. Awesome song still.

I highly advise people to purchase this mini-album. All their songs are different in genre, many of them have a 80, 90's feel to it but modernized. It's a lovely mix all in all. Everyone, and I mean everyone, has improved and shown a different vocals. I have heard a voice I don't quite recognize in SHINee girl...it could be Minho!

Y.O.U Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
100% satisfied with their mini-album Y.O.U. The mix of songs they have show their growth and maturity (in style and vocals). I absolutely love that Y.O.U, Jo Jo, and Get Down have an old school feel to them. Ring Ding Dong has a strong beat that is addictive to listen to. Shinee Girl sounds more like their other songs (which is a good thing). Onew's solo is so beautiful - fell in love with it in one listen.

The only thing I didn't like was the way the CD is packaged - it's inserted right into the photobook. I have no idea how I'm going to protect/preserve the CD and photobook since it's all paper and no hard covering.... Other than that, I love this mini-album! The photos are dark and...grungy. It's black and white with a splash of red and sometimes blue.

I bought the Korean version - very well worth every cent I spent.

Very Creative... Daring even! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Once again, K-Pop is going through a transitional phase where all the boy groups are making a comeback. New groups are debuting and older groups are coming back, yet SHINee tends to stand out the brightest.

I must say that this Mini Album is VERY different. I don't think anyone has heard this part of SHINee, but I find it very charming. The very first song 'Y.O.U' threw me completely off. It has a REAL oldstyle a cappella/R&B style. The procession of 'You~' throughout the song is very charming and I immediately LOVED this track. 5/5

Ring Ding Dong is the title song and I'm sure everyone's heard it. It has an Afro-tectonic feel. The constant African drum beat makes you want to dance and the dance beat smoothes the harsh drum sounds over. If you haven't seen the PV, I say see it NOW! lol The boys look amazing and their dancing is very skilled with such a strong beat. 5/5

'Jo Jo' was another shocker song that I eventually fell for. It has an techtonic/maybe even Christmas feel, lol. (None of the songs really sound like a song of this century, all have a oldies feel.) 4/5

'Get Down'... is crazy. o.o Its like oldschool rap and Minho and Key really shine in this track. This is not my favorite track but its creativeness is daring. 3/5 'SHINee Girl' is fun with a jive mixed with techno sound. the chorus makes you want to do the quickstep. ^^ 4/5

Finally, Onew's solo 'Naega Sarang Haedeon Ireum' is amazing. His voice mixed with Kim Yeon Woo is a real treat. It's like a ballad and once the chorus hits, you get sucked it. This track is really beautiful. 5/5

Overall, I give this Mini Album a 9/10. Good Job SHINee! This is definitely your year! ^_^

Must Have !!! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
From the preview and mainly based on their sound material on this new mini album I was really impressed, much more than their 2nd. Everything is changed: sounds and images turn to the next level, they're grown up but still look cute. I wished they would have released the new full album but by the way this is definitely worth buying..

So plz support our SHINee ;) Buy their album :x
