==Artistry==
===Musical style===
Zhou Mi's musical style primarily blends K-pop, Mandopop, R&B, and ballad elements, with a strong emphasis on smooth, melodic delivery and emotional storytelling.{{cite news | title=Super Junior-M debuts today | date=2008-04-08 | work=Jinhua.cn | pages=1 | url=http://ent.jinghua.cn/c/200804/08/n921675.shtml | access-date=2008-04-08 | language=zh | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080412011326/http://ent.jinghua.cn/c/200804/08/n921675.shtml | archive-date=2008-04-12 }}
===Influences===
Zhou Mi has cited Kangta as a major role model and mentor in his musical career. He has mentioned turning to Kangta for guidance, particularly when facing vocal difficulties or creative challenges during the production of his 2014 solo mini-album Rewind, where Kangta provided advice on song arrangement and vocal delivery.{{cite web| title=The 1st Mini Album 'Rewind'| date=November 3, 2014| url=http://zhoumi.smtown.com/Discography| publisher=[[SM Entertainment]]| accessdate=November 18, 2014| archive-date=August 12, 2020| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200812171227/http://zhoumi.smtown.com/Discography| url-status=dead}}
Zhou Mi's early interest in music was shaped by listening to a wide range of CDs as a child, and he drew inspiration from diverse sources including movies, personal life experiences, and love stories shared by friends when writing lyrics.
===Voice and timbre===
Zhou Mi typically operates in the tenor range, which often spans around C3 to C5, focusing on a brighter, higher register common in Mandopop ballads and K-pop performance. It is recognized for his warm, smooth, and emotive vocal timbre, which features a rich yet gentle resonance particularly well-suited to R&B, ballads, and mid-tempo pop tracks. His voice is often described as melodic and clear, with a distinctive tone that conveys warmth and vulnerability without heavy belting or sharp edges. As the main vocalist of Super Junior-M, he has demonstrated stable live delivery in both Mandarin and Korean, blending softness with subtle depth that allows for expressive phrasing and emotional storytelling.
===Videos and stage===
Zhou Mi's music videos and stage performances reflect his elegant and expressive artistry. His solo music videos, such as the 2014 title track "Rewind", typically feature stylish choreography with simple yet effective dance moves — including signature hand gestures like the "rewind" motion — combined with polished visuals, outfit changes, and narrative elements depicting emotional regret and longing.{{cite web| title=The 1st Mini Album 'Rewind'| date=November 3, 2014| url=http://zhoumi.smtown.com/Discography| publisher=[[SM Entertainment]]| accessdate=November 18, 2014| archive-date=August 12, 2020| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200812171227/http://zhoumi.smtown.com/Discography| url-status=dead}} On stage, Zhou Mi is recognized for his strong live vocal ability, delivering crisp, emotive, and stable performances even during demanding Super Junior and Super Junior-M concerts, solo stages, and music show appearances.
