Body Rocks：Inroads of the Korean Pop Culture

South Korea with its entertainment and music industry mushrooming, has been imbibed with quality music and dancing cultures from other countries in an active manner, and it has then created its own unique genre called K-Pop which has set in motion the trend of “Korean Maniac”. Many youngsters in this generation have been indulging in adulation for Korean celebrities, dramas and dances zealously, which has moved South Korea up the echelons to become the great power of Asian creative culture.

K-Pop is regarded as a music genre, but it is more a style of performance which integrates different dances in synergy with popular and capricious music styles, and transforms every song into dance music. Since K-Pop does not have any choreographic boundary, which resembles the choreographic style of Urban Dance that has grown popular in recent years, many choreographers have come to the fore after K-Pop has gone viral worldwide, which makes Korea a performance platform with diverse dancing styles in coexistence.

Lun, an introvert and sentimental dancer, resolves to dabble in South Korea in order to surmount his limits and bring a more thorough performance onstage. Shrouded by this multifarious entertainment culture, he visits different dancing studios and art schools to experience the diversity of South Korean dancing techniques as well as the stories of young dancers in pursuit of their dreams through dancing.

Will Lun be able to bring the passion of these dreamers back to Hong Kong and inspire other members of his dance regiment, so that they can complete their competition? Will Lun improve his choreographic skills through his first visit to South Korea for learning dancing?
