A RETIRED DANCER'S POV- Baekhyun "Candy" M/V+Dance Practice

WTF DOES “OG KPOP STAN" EVEN MEAN?!⬇️
Supposedly "original gangster”, can be seen as “old generation", personally viewed as “old-school”.🤓 I’ve been into Korean music since 1998 when I was 15, and using “kpop stan” is more catchy (super cringe or not) than “person who’s listened to Korean music since 1998”, amirite or AMIRITE.😂

XTRA 411-
I became an avid Korean music aka Kpop listener/lover since 1998. Korean and rap music were my coping mechanisms from the bullying I experienced in middle school through high school and my love for the genre has stuck by me ever since. The genre, along with artists like Michael Jackson, Aaliyah, Britney Spears, etc. then motivated me into becoming a hip-hop/pop dancer, which was a very active lifestyle for me literally throughout my whole 20s. (XTRA DANCE 411- I danced for, trained, and performed with 4 different dance teams. My first and main dance team who started my "dance life" was with Marvelous Motion (who later became IaMmE, America's Best Dance Crew Season 6 Champions). A lot of my dance training came from Di "Moon" Zhang, Brandon "747" Harrell, Emilio Dosal, SOREAL, and from attending many dance classes in Houston and L.A. (from amazing local talent to widely-known talents such as Parris Goebel, Keone Madrid, Kyle Hanagami, Lando Wilkins, Mister Wiggles, Rino Nakasone)
Unfortunately, I took a huge break from Korean music and dance around 2015 when I was officially diagnosed with lupus nephritis, seizures, and a heart murmur. I was receiving and battling years of chemotherapy and dialysis along with taking 32 pills a day, so I had no mental/emotional/spiritual room to keep myself updated with Kpop or dance. Luckily, I'm in remission now. That doesn't mean that lupus and seizures are gone because I am still very capable of frequent flare-ups if I don't take care of myself, but I make sure to do so enough to manage and live as "normally" as possible. I am also not capable of being an active dancer like I used to be due to my chronic illnesses, but I’m still a dancer in my mind, heart, and soul.
ALSO! Just to be SUPER clear- me calling myself an "OG kpop stan" does NOT mean that anyone who's listened to kpop after me is inferior or less-than. A kpop lifestyle is a kpop lifestyle regardless of time. Please don’t get that sh*t twisted.😛 Sooo I am currently and actively keeping a weather eye on the KPOP horizon and also using what I’ve learned from my dance years to give credit where it’s due!

    Thanks Thina! Yes, D.O. is my bias, but Baek is a definite wrecker...he can steal your heart with his voice, and from years of being in Exo, his dancing is very seasoned and he has that groove of any song type down...now since you know how Baek is a natural born singer, any chance you could react to the lyric video for his "All I Got" song from the "Bambi" album? Many reactors were left with reacting to the lyric video after countless requests...reactors around the world on YT....have been hyped to do this song. So I'm asking you to do the same please. I think the "Bambi" album came out this March or April, but no time for promotions, stages or any dance practices except for the "Bambi" mv, because he had to leave for military on May 6th. I don't think this song could have a dance anyway. You gotta do "All I Got" lyric video Thina...I know you want to see and critique dance, but this song is out of this world. Shows why he is one of the best vocals in all of Kpop. So worth it Thina. Thanks again girl! 💙🌺

    Baekhyun is so cute. He's the young man who will carry your groceries to your door for you without being asked. 🥰 I'm surprised you didn't hear Candy because it was everywhere last year. I was introduced to this song via Wheein's vocal cover but I have a different appreciation for the original because of the choreo. Baekhyun has so much charisma and when someone who has god tier charisma is also an amazing dancer magic happens.
