Yoyo, its back for more of my dance journey, its now the Kpop dance side!
I've started to know about Kpop in 2009 aka Sorry Sorry era.
I started to know about Kpop because of Boys Over Flowers, RMD even bought me a BOF OST album LOL.
I got to know SuperJunior through Yoboie YongWenXin, she introduced me to SJ. Nawwww.
She only hears SJ songs though, while I listen to the songs of most groups, unless the latest songs by those rookie groups. Sorry.
Then I introduced Kpop to the people around me slowly, AHHAHA sorry too bad.
My whole i-tunes consists of 70% Kpop, 20% classical Mpop and 10% some English songs that I know of.



Anyways, I didn't like to watch/perform Kpop dances in front of people in the past.
As in, I dance to Kpop in my room or when I'm alone but to people, nah its okay.
But then RMD was supposed to perform 'Nobody' for Teacher's Day 2009.
It was a short one, more of a comedy for my dear Erica ;) to 'shine' but I guess it was the first time I performed Kpop in front of people.
Then slowly when I was still in Wanna Studio, Teacher Eileen asked me and Charlene to teach the kids during their Christmas Party and some during some performance.
We did The Boys and Abracadabra respectively.

And I also went for classes at Celine Jessandra, for K-Hiphop open classes.
Simply, using Kpop songs to dance Hiphop LOL.
That was when I was in Sec 4?
Celine Jessandra also had their open house promotions, where they open their classes to people at a promotion price, that time I went I think it was $8 per lesson.
I went twice for the open house promotions, once with the Kids at Wanna Studio, the other with Sherlyane then Shufen.
It was such a loooooooooooooong time ago.

Celine Jessandra also had a Kpop overnight dance off event, Kpop before the dawn, where I went with my brother as Sherlyane was one of the competitors in year 1.
Oh and also with Amanda and BingXiang, which I met them at the venue itself.
The event had a highlight of Deoksher, who is the Regional Dance Choreographer for SHINee, T-ara, B.A.P, Bang & Zelo, After School and many more, teaching the crowd some dance.
OPPPAOPPPA OMGOMGOMG
He started teaching the dance without on-ing the song so everyone was like what song is this.
As he continued, it was so familiar but I didn't know which song was it, then omg OPPAOPPA OMG.
/fangirls
Was very honored to be chosen and get to dance with him on stage for oppaoppa as in omg look at him.



Then I went to Brave Dancers Studio.
Because Deoksher was one of the instructors there, but I didn't even attend his class even once LOL.
Another reason was because Karen's friend is also an instructor under BD, teaching waccking so she asked me to purchase the one month unlimited dance pass.
So I went for IGAB lessons, Special Girl lessons, Waccking with Catlady and Contempt Jazz with Amin.

Then, after that I went for crew auditions for Studio De S in year 2.
Initially I went because they said you can share a stage with SNSD, but apparently no wtf.
/igotscammed
I got in the crew and then they say there is going to be a performance, I'm like woah. chill guys.
But I couldn't make it for the first training due to Dreams Modern Training, thus I went for the second one and I swear it was soooooooo awkward.
I knew NOBODY 没有人 in the whole crew.
I asked Shufen to join with me she don't want so I'm a awkward turtle in the crew like walao.

And then their trainings will start at 8.30 and end at 10.30 but you know dancers never end their practices on time so 11. and the studio is at Chinatown someone save me.
The first performance I was only involved in one song, Whats Your Name.
Initially Growl too but I declined.
And then they slowly had more performances which I couldn't make it because of GEM.
And this was my second performance in DeS  LMAO.




Then I came across a facebook advert about the Korean Night Festival competition.
WHICH CLEARLY STATE THE WINNER WILL GET TO REPRESENT SINGAPORE IN KOREA.
/igotscammed AGAIN
So I asked Yan about it and she also wanted to join.
So she created the whatsapp group and so and so for, we got ready for auditions.

And then slowly finals.



The whole road was not easy, everyone had their own commitments and I swear we seriously have communication problems LMAO.
You can watch 1.43-1.45 where my members keep mimicking my reaction. oi.



So basically no, we're not confirmed going to Korea.
We need to be the top 15 of the teams for Kpop World Festival 2014 determined by video views, online voting and professional markings.
So WATCH LAI LAI.


xoxo
Lots of Love;
Joey
