And when people look at us at a first glance, they wonder "What the hell are those people doing...?"
It's not until a few seconds later, when the play button is pressed, people start having a general idea of who we are.

As for me, my personal hobby is to dance; I love dancing do music.
I love dancing to Asian-Pop, specifically K-pop (Korean pop).
The San Diego K-Pop Flashmob (SDKFM) is a group where people who love K-pop can come together and dance out in public after learning a mix for the season. The group always welcomes new members; after all, the more who love K-pop, the more we'll be able to spread the love of Korean pop culture in a fun manner.
I joined the group a week before college started, invited by a friend at a dance meet up. Just days before my first day attendance at the practice session, I was already thinking about wanting to join a flashmob thanks to this video:
My wish came true just a week later-- I was overly ecstatic to become part of something fun! Ever since I joined, I practiced every Saturday with the rest of the group from 2-7 p.m. for a six minute mix.
On October 6th, our flashmob went public out at Balboa Park.
I was incredibly nervous right before! My heart was pounding and I was really worried that I might forgot the dances, even though I practiced everyday. I just get nervous too easily.
However, the moment I joined in the mob, I was at ease. What I thought was going to happen was the opposite; my mind was set to just dance and have fun, and the feeling of nervousness went away. I was having fun and just doing my part. Finally, our hard work has been paid off. However, this isn't the end: we still have more to do! At least for this season, we're planning to perform a few more times before we take a break.
Overall, I'm very proud to be part of this community, and I really do look forward to continue dancing alongside everyone. Fighting! SDKFM!
I had no idea it was a group, I really thought you guys were all just together having a like get together day. I was going around balboa that day looking like purple Cinderella with black hair,walking places for my debut photo shoot and I spot you the moment I saw the entire crowd. Wow I was amaze! You're really good and I honestly hope you'd show us one day! I was completely entertained when you guys when on and did Gangnam style and it honestly made my day. My sister is a major K-POP fan, maybe she'd be interested in this too :). Keep up with the practices and such, maybe one day I might run into one of your flash mob performances ! :)
ReplyDeleteYup! We always try to make it look like that to deceive people xD
DeleteI was definitely surprised after knowing it was you XD Watching us do Gangnam Style out of all things, I feel kind of embarrassed, haha!
Do let me know if she does want to join, after all, the more the better! :D And thanks so much! c:
