2011 is finished, and it’s been a great year for Kpop, with some awesome videos and dances.
And so, without further ado, we bring you HOW TO DANCE KPOP STYLE 2011!!!!
[music]
Starting off this year’s How to Dance Kpop 2011 is TVXQ’s “Keep Your Head Down”
TVXQ made their big comeback in January which racked up 8 million views.
Max Time and Yunho Time totally rock it with an awesome song and violent dance moves.
Turns out, though, that TVXQ is not only one of the most famous Kpop bands in the world,
but they're also some of the most violent.
In fact, one of the back up dancers contacted us to do a secret interview.
Gives a totally new meaning to SM Entertainment.
[music]
Yes, I was a backup dancer for TVXQ in “Keep Your Head Down”
But every night, after practice, I would come home a bloodied and bruised and broken man.
U-Know time wasn’t all too nice. He’d punch me and push me,
and even worse...he would slap my ass!
Oh God!
All those sound effects that you heard...those weren’t sound effects!
I even have a video to prove it. You’re sure this is anonymous right?
Yes! Ok good.
Keep your head down. Oh!
Keep your head down. Wah!
Weh! Duh nuh nuh nuh NUH nuh Nuh NUH weh!
Coming it at #9 it’s the Wonder Girls!!! with “Be My Baby.”
It came out not even two months ago, and has already pulled in 14 million views
and for good reason. What a great song and dance this was!
While a lot of Kpop dances this year have been pretty serious,
we’re happy that a dance that’s fun and lighthearted and whimsical made it on the list.
It combined both an old fashion dance with a Beyonce interpretive bumsmacking kind of dance move.
Now while all the hand movements and the chorus are probably the most memorable dance for most people
our favorite part of the dance is probably the least appreciated part:
The flock of happy skipping swans.
Pfft! Forget about crip walking, that’s for sissies.
Shuffling, is so last year. This year, WG swan walk is in.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BBUUUH BUHH BEEP BEEP
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BBUUUH BUHH BEEP BEEP BA DEE BEEP
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BBUUUH BUHH BEEP BEEP
Coming in at #8 on our list is Girls’ Generation’s “The Boys”
Since Mid October, this video pulled in a massive 25 million views,
and comes in as the second most viewed Kpop video on our list.
This song might be called The Boys, but it’s definitely an arm flailing dance for girls only.
Sure, it looks great when Girls Generation do it, with their smooth, and hairless armpits
but I think it should be strictly forbidden for manly, hairy dothraki man warriors such as myself,
Oh my God Simon! This is such a great song! You know this song. Come on dance with me!
Yeah, you know, let’s just wait till the next one.
Come on! Oh God! You can do it. Come on Simon you know this dance so well! Just do it.
Alright. GIRLS’ GENERATION MAKE YOU FEEL THE HEAT WHEN YOU DOIN IT YOU CAN’T BE BEAT.
Check this part out:
WE BRING THE BOYS OUT!!!!
Oooh yeah! Guess who’s having nightmares tonight. Not me. You!
Coming in at #7 on our list is MBLAQ’s “Mona Lisa,” which has pulled in almost 2 million views since July.
Mona Lisa blends ethnic sounds and instruments
with a dance that mixes salsa with cocky rock and roll air guitar playing
Ah yes! The classic Air-Guitar-and-Crotch-Grab.
But despite all the interesting dance moves in this video,
we were distracted by all the face arousal, which occurs over 13 times. We counted.
But, you know what? I think we know what happened.
On the day of filming, the director had emergency dental surgery
and when he got on set, he was still feeling a little numb in the face.
Ok guithe thorry I’m late. Ok I’m ready and Leth get tharted!
Uh...director? You don’t sound so good! Are you ok?
Oh thorry! I had thome dental thurgery and I feel a little numb.
Itth okay leth get going guithe!
You sure? Yeth! I’m totally ready. Leth get thtarted!
And acthion!
Oh God!
Oh Tho thorry about that! I can’t really feel my fathe right now I’m tho thorry. Acthion!
More pathion! More pathion! Yeth! Yeth! Thuper!
No, too thimple! We need more gath thignth on the thet!
Thirty thigns! Theriouthly guithe! We need thome more thet thtuff, theriouthly!
*screaming and crying*
THUPER PATHION GUITHE! THUPER PATHION!
Oh! Everybody to the left. Say nah nah nah nah nah. Director stop!
Thorry! I’ll Thtop!
Coming it at #6 is Super Junior’s “A Cha” which got over 6 million views since September.
It’s interesting how this video got voted in over Mr. Simple,
which is quite possibly the most viewed Kpop video of the year with over 31 million views.
Last year with Bonerama, Super Junior taught us how to do our chores, like a man.
This year, Super Junior upped the ante, by washing their sexy windows
with not one, but two hands, during a freaking earthquake.
How much manlier can you get? My prediction:
next year, Super Junior are going to be vacuuming on the backs of dragons,
and then feather dusting inside of an active volcano
on a massive meteor hurtling towards Jupiter.
Um. Simon: hate to interrupt you here, but there was no earthquake in that video.
That was just really bad camera work. Yeah.
I would avoid watching the Dance Version #1
Forget the earthquake then. But do remember the manliness of sexy window washing.
Coming in at #5 on our list is Beast B2ST! Beast, with Fiction. B2ST! It’s Beast!
It reeled in 11 million views since May.
Fiction, in our opinion, is the most non-assuming and non-explosive dance of the year,
especially compared to most of the Kpop dances that came out in 2011.
Now, although it’s simple, it’s really memorable, and one of our favorite dances of the year.
But it would definitely be the worst dance to pull out during a dance off.
HOOO! That was sick son! Go J-Iz! Go J-Iz!
Ah yeah man! Y’all ain’t ready for this. You ready? You ready?
What are you...dude? What are you doing?
This is...this is my dance!
No? It’s not.........
......
Coming in at #4 on the list is UKISS’s “Neverland,”
which came out at the end of August and racked up over 4 million views.
UKISS has really impressed us this year by having much more
intense and complicated choreography in their music vidoes.
In fact, Neverland is so complicated and intense,
that we decided to break down in an easy to follow step-by-step guide.
Cue the Pizza Music!
Wah! It’s a me, Martario!
Today I make for you some delicious pizza, U-Kiss Style.
Ok first, I take the dough. And I slam the dough down, and then I beat the dough!
and then you let the dough rest a little and then you beat the dough!
And then you take this and then you want to reach up and get some toppings
Right? So, I’m gonna reach up, and I’m gonna put on the toppings and sauces
and then I’m gonna take my pizza (It’s Complete!)
and I’m going to put it in the oven, and then I’m going to serve the pizza pie to you.
and then that’s it. It’s just so easy!
Let’s do it a little bit faster, alright?
Beat the dough, let it rest, beat the dough reach up topping put the topping put it in the oven give it to you and serve it.
U-Kiss Style...Beautiful pizza!
Coming in at #3 on our list is Infinite’s “Before the Dawn,”
which is actually our least viewed video on the list, with just around 1.5 million views
but despite its low views on YouTube, it still beat out most of the videos on our list.
Both the original and dance version of this video have a heavy feeling of fighting to them.
One has literally like, a lot of fighting in it, like a lot,
but the dance version has fight training. Fight training that went terribly, terribly wrong.
Today we will learn the HADOUKEN.
You will tap into the secret energies of the earth
and funnel them into a deadly fireball that will burn your enemies into a crisp.
It is very deadly, almost as deadly as the Lucifer, but super effective.
First, clear the air around you of impurities,
and now gather your spirit energy through a quick face arousal.
Yes, now smack your nipples and prepare for the haduken,
readyyyy, aiiimm,,,,, now throw it back --
NO WAIT I MEAN STRAIGHTT!!!! OH GAWDD!!!!
*Simon Screaming
Coming in at #2 is 2NE1 with “I Am The Best” which got a whopping 26 million views,
making it the most viewed video on our list.
The aggressive and arrogant message of this song matches the dance perfectly.
For a cocky song about Being the Best, it’s like the dance could be a substitute for telling someone off,
as many of the moves seem like insults.
Ok! When you see them tomorrow, you’re not going to take any crap ok?
You’re gonna say, I’m up here, and you’re down there, so kiss my butt ok? Kiss my butt.
You want some?! You want some?!?!
Bring it on ok?! Bring it on! I can’t hear you! I can’t hear what you’re saying. I can’t hear
You wanna take this? You wanna...maybe I should...
Maybe I should leave out that part with the bicycle.
Definitely...uh, leave out that part.
Coming in as the number one video/dance/model/actor/vegetable is.
Bee weep weep weep wee wooo wooop wooeep weep.
Beegees?
I’m singing Big Bang’s “Tonight”
Filmed in Las Vegas and San Diego, this video is less story oriented as some of their older videos,
This video has more of an atmospheric vibe to it.
But what really blew our minds, was how popular the dance for this music video has become.
It’s spread all over the world like wildfire.
TONIIIIIIIGHT
Let’s see that from the side angle.
TONIIIIIIIGHT
INTENSE.
And that’s it. That’s literally the whole dance.
OH MY GOD! I totally forgot one very important part. Let’s see that from the back angle.
TONIIIIIIIIGHT!
So that’s it for How to Dance Kpop Style 2011.
Don’t forget to like and favorite this video, and to subscribe for more.
To end this yearly countdown, we’re including our favorite dance of the year, T-Ara’s Roly Poly.
Take it away, Spudgy.
