South Korea - B-Boy Badness!

South Korea r3wlZ the breakdance scene

And it seems pretty much true. Almost any event you go to has some kind of B-boy competition and there are hip-hop dance studios all over the place. Korea is pretty serious on dance and song anyway, so this particular combination seems to make a lot of sense.

From the article:


June 26, 2008 | This summer, the United States is reaching new heights of dance fever as TV shows like Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance" and MTV's "Randy Jackson Presents: America's Top Dance Crew" have returned to the airwaves. MTV's runaway hit is considered especially cutting edge, showcasing hip-hop dance groups from across America. But if MTV really wants the best dance crew, it should be looking in South Korea.

"Of the top six or seven crews in the world, I'd say half of them are from Korea," says Christopher "Cros One" Wright, 33, an American dance promoter and b-boy who was recently in Suwon, South Korea, to judge the second annual global invitational hip-hop dance competition, called R16, that was held at the end of May.
