shotaro in this was incredible, i feel like you can pause at any moment of the video and watch him and his moves will be worth analyzing. a great team overall.

@raibebe5058 2 года назад

I don't remember where they revealed it but I vividly remember Jeno saying that when they learned the choreo, all of them thought it would be basketball based and then they were surprised when the MV was staged around baseball. So you where right!

@ailourosn 2 года назад

It's an intense unit, especially since majority are main/lead dancers. though it's so crazy, how many of us just get stolen by shotaro's little nuances and overall movements. shotaro is just crazy outstanding in this art called dancing!

@aliceindreamlands 2 года назад

This proves the reason why shotaro's fancam always go viral every time he performs. His moves are eyecatching and interesting.

@MRosezhahira 2 года назад

I togally agree with you on Jaemin. My bias is Haechan and so I almost always pay attention to him & everyone just fades out but I watched the dance practice again just to see Jaemin. I think he really worked his center time well in Universe! He really stood out to me. In my opinion, this is the best performance from him so far. It’s such a pity that Universe came out so late in the year and they only went to music shows once. Also, SHOTARO WAS AMAZING. I was honestly shocked at how good this unit was cause it seemed so random (😅) but their stage at Inkigayo was great. I saw someone tweet about how Shotaro probably made this unit dance better and somehow I agree 😂 Shotaro, you’re a star! I hope he gets his own unit soon 🥲

@Yoru15127 2 года назад

Yes, it's true. Haechan does have a habit of leading with his elbow when doing hand/arm movements and it is a very Haechan kind of style that really suits him. Haechan has really been going off lately this year, with NCT 127, DREAM and now NCT U, his dancing has improved soo much and not only that but he's getting a lot more lines and more center time now than back when NCT first debuted. I'm soo glad that you take notice of Haechan's movements and how it's different from the other members but at the same time breaking it down for us and telling us why it suits him and how amazing Haechan is as a dancer, very much appreciated Jeff, thank you!!😊😊😊

@imadramatrash 2 года назад

My gosh finally somebody talked about Shotaro’s hip thrust at 10:25!!! I LOVE THAT DETAIL SO MUCH and it was such a outstanding move that makes my eyes keep falling on Shotaro the whole time. He never misses a single detail and really is specific in his movement. Thank you for pointing that out. That hip thrust must be highly appreciated! 😭

@PaperDoll127 2 года назад

Shotaro was born to dance. God blessed him with so much talent. He is living his dream life now. He started dreaming K Pop when he saw an NCT127 concert in Japan and now ~ I mean he could have joined a Japanese group but the world should see his talent. Yes, you’re right this group is 🔥 I also love the choreography of Universe. The transitions that leads to the formations are so good. I don’t know which member said they only practiced the choreography to do the MV for 3 days. Maybe they just did the parts that are needed in the MV?? Then they suddenly decided to shift from baseball to basketball in the real dance??? Okay, I am just guessing.

@funkytownyeah 2 года назад

At 10:10 you’re pointing out how Shotaro started with the hip first (bottom up). I’d like to point out how Mark leads that move with his shoulders (his specialty, come on). He kinda shakes (?) it at the end, following the beats, left to right (if that’s make sense), while other members don’t rly give the same nuances as they do it bottom up like Shotaro minus the hip. Love both styles!

@rebeckaroy6790 2 года назад

I am not at all surprised that Shotaro stands out in this choreo. Not only is it a jam packed choreo in his style, there is no mistaking someone who has been dancing (and professionally) since they were 5 years old. It's unmistakable. :D And he got into SM because they saw an amazing dancer who also had potential to develop the all-round skills of a kpop performer. So he will just grow and grow in his vocal abilities as well over the next few years because you know he is a hard worker. It must be so fun to be a choreographer who can just give these boys a choreo and know they will totally deliver on it, they are all such skilled performers.

@@sk8ergalx ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3pIFqzPdwrk.html The choreographer talks about Xiaojun a couple times. I think the comment above from his comments around the 10.00 mark. He mentions that he's worked with all of NCT at some point (excluding sung taro?), but now mostly works with WayV. I think WayV has a special place in his heart, particularly Ten and Xiaojun as students that enjoy making their own choreography.

@aysimanik 2 года назад

It's probably because his vocals kind off overshadows his dancing skills. He is a really good dancer and keeps up with every group/song/performance he is in but his vocals are insanely beautiful and strong, he is one of the best SM vocalists out there. We have so many members in nct and that's why most of the time members do not get a chance to show other sides of their talents. Most of them are aces, we have great rappers, great dancers and great vocalists. Doyoung is one of the best vocalists in nct and kpop too. I think that's why their managing team mostly focus on his vocals in performances and push him more on to the side of being a singer/vocalist. His dancing abilities are so good too but it gets overshadowed cause his singing abilities are much more stronger than his dancing abilities. What an amazing artist to stan... idk i just love him so much dhsjshj
