I was watching a reaction to VIXX’s Shangri-La dance practice and I had a thought..
There’s a lot of focus on in sync dance nowadays in KPOP. Like its always been something that people notice, but I feel like its almost expected now?
What I think is interesting about VIXX is that they’re not trying to be in sync. If any members, or all members as happens sometimes, are in sync its because it just happened.
From what I’ve seen, VIXX’s dance focuses on and amplifies the members unique dance styles. For example Hakyeon’s moves emphasize how graceful he is, and the full control he has over his body. Leo’s moves often show off how long his body line is, with lots of sweeping arm movements. Leo is also twirling all over the place every time he moves position its funny. Hyuk and Ravi are very sharp powerful dancers and I feel like they try to show that off when choreographing the dances.
In some of their choreo’s half of the dance is the members doing completely different moves, in some beautiful formation or something. Its nice.
The VIXX members have very different dancing styles and also personalities and thankfully Jellyfish has never been interesting in smothering that.
