parallels between sm groups/artists - a totally random and useless thread

yifan, tao, luhan (exo) are the old version of sicheng, yuta, johnny (nct)

'SM repeating old mistakes'

Starring:
Yuta as Yifan
Johnny as Luhan
Sicheng as Tao

taeil (nct) is the new kyuhyun (suju)

- perfect voice
- underrated vocalist
- really soft looks

kun (nct) has the sound of luhan (exo)

honest to god if you know luhan's voice just go listen to without you (chinese version) and you'll know what i mean

sm really likes keeping that same visual in their groups : nct ten, suju yesung, shinee key
(i SWEAR there were pictures where they looked nearly identical)

ok i get they have a preferred sound and look... but they literally casted and debuted sisters with a damn near identical voice

powerhouse vocals:

dbsk - jyj + changmin
s.e.s - bada
suju - kyusungteukchul
snsd - taetiseosic
shinee - jongnewtaebum
exo - baekchensoo
f(x) - luna
rv - wenrengi
nct : dojaeilwookunlejunhyuck

(sorry idk well about groups before snsd :()

dance legends:

youngho
heechul, obviously
hyoyeon, yuri
taemin, key
victoria
kai, sehun, lay
seulgi
ten, yuta, winwin, jisung, taeyong

chinese members with tons of flexibility:

victoria
tao
winwin

rappers who could/should be more than sub-vocals:

hyoyeon, yuri, sooyoung
amber
chanyeol, kai
mark, yuta

chenle, renjun and haechan (nct) are currently growing up to join the list of power vocals as well as compete with jaehyun, doyoung, taeil to be the next vocal trio of nct

the musical geniuses of sm:

seohyun, henry, chenle, chanyeol

did i mention sm seems to be raising nct to be the epitome of sm in general, because they are. look at how often they appear in this thread.

visual parallels 3:

donghae (suju) and jeno (nct)

visual parallels 4:

it's... really just the lips that are different. jaeyoong also reminds me of another idol but i can't relate who.

jaeyoong (dbsk, jyj) and taeyong (nct)

visual parallels 5:

'who looks the closest to our already debuted idols? get them and train them.'

lucas (nct) and minho (shinee)

visual parallels 6:

ok it's getting slightly ridiculous

jungwoo (nct) and taemin (shinee)

visual parallels 7:

mark (nct) and xiumin (exo)

visual parallels 8:

blame it on the hair

amber (f(x) and jonghyun (shinee)

visual parallels 9:

i haven't seen anyone talk about this, but? their personality? their smile? they could be twins not gonna lie

suho (exo) and kun (nct)

SOMEONE SHOULD'VE CORRECTED ME I SPOUTED SO MUCH BULLSHIT SMH
