Yeah… I know that I learned that Cravity also went movie reference but the structure of the other elements helping carry their storyline more effectively. I will give ONEUS a second watch out of courtesy of the fact I focused more of the performance direction over the choreography so we will see if I have a better lens there!

I completely love that they have more confidence in FOLLOWING THROUGH their choices and going against the grain. I really enjoy their live vocals and hope they don’t revert back like they did in RTK1. I plan on giving theirs a second watch out of courtesy of looking and focusing on the other elements outside of concept! Hopeful they get to continue to be a heavy contender throughout the season!!

Yeah I think you spent a lot of time on the Oneus performance critiquing the concept which probably would have made more sense if you realized it was a Kingsman reference, which I believe they have done before. It's valid though if you don't know what they're referencing it does seem scattered.

ONEUS brainstormed their performance themselves. Even when it comes to their regular releases, they are very involved in the decision-making for their songs and their styling/concepts. Hwanwoong has also been the performance director for two of their comebacks so far. I also wish they'd lean into the traditional elements, but they may be concerned about typecasting themselves as their whole concept from Day 1 has basically been to not have a singular concept that they stick to but rather to constantly try different things. They also could just be saving it for later rounds. Either way, I'm glad they're continuing to perform live even though I think it puts them at a bit of a disadvantage to other groups since they have to take the fact that they're actually going to sing into consideration when designing their performances. When this was the case in RTK1, they stopped singing live after the Intro round when they placed at the bottom. Now, they seem to be sticking to their guns and keeping their mics on, which I love.

That is a fun connection! Yay for a good performance direction moment!

Forgot to mention this as well but it's funny that you mentioned how the door in Cravity's performance reminded you Quasi Una Fantasia from The Boyz on RTK since Jungmo from Cravity said that's one of his favourites from the entire series.

Love all this background info!! Thank you for sharing such great details!

I believe I have encountered Hwaga before! But I won’t know 100% until I look at the links you sent! I’ll be looking at the episode tomorrow (alongside literally everything else like SWFV and GDC 😂😂 but we will be fine so I’ll be able to understand more after the fact !!

Jessica Holyfield

Ah! Gotcha… so what happened was similar to Deadpool with SKZ. I think the LEDs were not the most helpful for them in aiding with this idea 😭

I was debating whether or not to mention the ace thing with Hwanwoong and Hyeongjun but it's a spoiler for the episode so I ended up not saying anything, haha. Anyway, for Cravity, yes, their team for Sugar Rush Ride is the same team as Veni Vidi Vici. The choreographer for Dance with the Devil is also the same choreographer as Odyssey Into Gravity. It seems like this will be their official team for the whole of RTK2. However, they also had a new choreographer for the tutting portion as well as Hyeongjun's solo dance break with the arm illusion. Not sure if you've heard of her but her name is Hwaga. Here's her insta post: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DAs5fgbyVHo/?igsh=MXU2ajdxMjQ0ZXdkeA== about the performance. She personally taught Wonjin (red hair) and Taeyoung (the one standing at the beginning) some of the basics of tutting. Wonjin and Taeyoung mentioned that they had really sore forearm muscles for days when they were trying to learn this: 💁‍♂️ move(?)/pose(?) since they couldn't get a 90° angle at first. They were on youtube live today and talked about a lot of small mistakes they had in the performance (Jungmo's shoe falling off when he was lifted causing him to miss the timing, Allen's mic pack falling out, etc.) but thankfully none of them were extremely noticeable. My other thoughts… I'll save for when you've watched the episode since it'll give more context.

Oneus concept was the movie Kingsman.
