Then I just find out before she was Funky Lia, so I want check out her old video. She still look so cute like today but a bit more mature & she look lost alots of weight, she was so fine here!!!

[@AppleValentine]

Wow. I will never have the "GUTS" or Confidence like her to dance in the streets, mall or subway. She is amazing! She has the best popping skills ive ever seen. Superb!

[@kingstonlor9969]

that was me but now i want to be a street performer by immersing yourself in front of an audience constantly, the pressure is slowly getting adjusted for me :D im so happy because it makes myself improve in every aspect of performing!

[@havenarmstrong4675]

SHE HAS COME SO FAR IM SO PROUD. looking back at this and her now is so cool. She’s so great and a huge inspiration.

[@Lionelltd]

Lol. I really liked this video. I like the woman clapping at the end of the mall segment. And I appreciated Lia having the courage to do that in front of all those people. What a great dancer.

[@miliarteaga2812]

2012 Funky Lia 2018 Versatile Lia (Funky, Sexy, HipHoper, Contemporany Lia Kim)

[@lapkatu539]

Уже 8 лет смотрю этот бомбический танец и не перестаю восхищаться, обожаю Лию Ким, когда нет вдохновения отрабатывать движения этот ролик очень помогает мне💖🌻🤗🐈

[@TheEricLin]

YAKfilms Do you guys play music during the actual filming for reference, or did she dance to no music? I can tell that you guys added this song when editing, I'm curious about the actual filming process. Thanks!

[@tungming5749]

Eric L. I have the same question too!

[@Dmeech100]

Eric L. They probably used a jambox or portable speaker while filming. Theres NO WAY she could be THAT on beat without actually hearing the music. Also, i'm pretty positive she planned the routine beforehand - ie this is pre choreographed by her.

[@TheDrums33]

+Eric L. You can see some walkers moving to the beat ( i don't remember if it's this video or another ) so you can guess there's music ^^

[@tevita101]

10 years later and its still the best cinematography/edit till this day

[@Kindtheory98]

Legend 😢❤

[@mikek1635]

1:49 Lol! The ajuma in back stopped dead on her tracks.

[@shodai4]

that one dude chilling having a smoke in the background at the beginning was sending me for some reason

[@victorreyes2998]

1:58 respect

[@ZeePark21]

The first two places I can endure, but the subway one I would've literally ended up laughing with embarrassment (Lia herself was holding it especially on her way out) 😂

[@photomorti]

she is amazinbg!

[@soundxcrash]

I love it Yak films always captures amazing footage i love that they always incorporate the streets i loved the subway dance .

[@teylahorus3867]

You are such an inspiration!

[@chobomsj]

I love her! I would pay good money to watch her show or concert. I can't help but dance along when I watch this. Funky Lia I challenge you to a dance off! I would probably end up losing so bad LOL

[@BN-ep7tq]

Lia you are a great DANCER

[@Wilksy01]

A legend creating herself!

[@sherkhanumbetali4737]

[@todzifushigur0]

[@oybeutu]

She is amazing.

[@simonaa.cristianaa]

I love her dance!

[@hematime808]

this is why YAKfilms is my favorite channel on youtube...so many cultures brought together as one for the love of music and dance

[@FuturDancer94]

So insane,funky and original!! I wish to have this style! So lovely and this needs a lot of more views!!!!

[@funkypree]

Go Liaaaa!!! Sick wit it! Love her style the most out of alot of the female poppers today...

[@S101_video]

One of the best YAK videos...Great ambience in the 1st part under the rain. And she rocks!

[@jimjamsalien4083]

fresh as fuck

[@skanderbendaoud6811]

i love how in korea they respect the dancers and how they support them i can see that in the video

[@TytoPhodilus]

Very talented... I can see the passion in her moves.

[@hakanlindhen500]

I still cry rivers when I watch your old videos. You dance in my heart❤️. There is no one like you!

[@AllthatmakesFall]

You should all check out her videos now

[@SpicyPumpkin001]

she´s so amazing and inspirational...and very good music choice *_*

[@inventfmc]

I wonder if it was intentional having Lia in a bright green shirt, so many people in the background had drab and usual colors on, it really made Lia standout. Whether or not it was intentional, it was dope.

[@serranaferrer3343]

hermosa!!!!!!!!!

[@TheGamerChica]

OMG she's frickin awesome and a blast to watch! I LOVE THIS!!!! :)

[@AryaNFirE]

As much as I'd love to see that... No way. Dancing, especially hip hop, is about expression and art. You cannot make it an official sports competition, where marks and deductions are given by judges. It's very subjective, Red Bull BC is enough. Don't need more!

[@ducavzla]

i'd to know sth, if there is really one camera in front of her? idk the ppl are like.. ''this girls it's weird wth is wrong with her?'' or sth like ''she's good but wth?'' or they can't see the camera idk but i think they ain't xdd

[@snorelaxx]

@zetton funk thank u both versions sounds dope and tight work sick and dance is a universal language and a art form and hahahahahaha the faces in the end of the subway priceless

[@93faze]

Great video, the lady clapping was funny but not as funny as the people on the train, they didn't know what was goin on, Lia killin it that's what & she looks great with short hair!

[@lucarossi8442]

Hooooolyyyyy shhhhhhhh.....awesome

[@orphenx1]

omfg, shes so amazing!!! one of the best poppers i've seen.

[@sketchwish5982]

LOVE the spontaneity in all this…. SWEET

[@thchoi88]

bet they said that about the athletics in olympics, there's too many variety of sports...... but hey... its working....

[@esestlloco]

dope music from onra dope popper funky lia dope video yak films ... perfect match

[@TheExacto]

I would love to see Funky Lia vs Marie Poppins. Unless it has already happened. They both have solid musicality!

[@8Jud3]

Why's everyone stopped?LOL Isn't having a camera hovering around part of the KR lifestyle LMAO*

[@AfroReactions]

There are too many different styles of martial arts, yet the most renowned are part of the Olympics.

[@Boonicat71]

HORLY CRAP 2:27 she goes OFF!!! 2:37 she just starts hitting hella hard!

[@MichaelJohnsenOslo]

Wow...I smiled through the entire thing :D

[@BigJyeTV]

the people are looking at her like 'she must have been around some black folk again' lmao

[@SpaceTunes]

dang she is really good, she should fix her haircut tho, idk Asians always have weird hair

[@FenrirLupo]

dw, i don't need to imagine. Even better, this is what i saw in the video. When she is at the stores of the subway. 1:19 girl on the back, 1:32 dude with the cellphone on the left, 1:47 grandma on the back. Clear examples of what you say. Now, 1:34 the two girls behind the dude on the left, 1:37 the girls on the right, 1:57 and the woman from the store. Of course there are other things involved, like the camera and the music, but that response from the people is for what it is worth...

[@croix444]

I think it has to do with our fear of illness. Dancing without music could seem like one has a mental illness. Despite the (mostly) commonly known fact that psychological problems aren't contagious, we still make the association with illness. We behave in a hostile, or cautious manner towards weird, out of place behavior, myself included, and I know what popping is. Imagine someone who doesn't know what it is.

[@croix444]

My statement is awkward, I was pretty tired when I wrote it. But yeah. The whole point of dancing is that you're moving to music. Even if I recognize the moves, it's still really odd to see someone popping to nothing. It kinda looks like they're having a seizure, makes it really awkward for everyone without the context of music. In an ideal world, you could burst into dance whenever you want, without music, and not be thought less of for it, but we don't live in an ideal world.

[@FenrirLupo]

so you are saying that you dance popping, but if you see someone dancing popping without music you are like WTF is this guy doing?... your statement is kinda awkward... but like i said, true, people may have a different reaction on this, some may like it, others not, and these dancers don't need to be played the music for them to dance, the music is in their heads, and that's what makes it even more awesome, but again, that is my perception..

[@brnghkmrs]

youtube won't let me reply anymore, someone having the same issue?

[@LionelBaronArtiste]

ah !!!? si j'avais eu la chance de me trouvé près de toi dans le metro ....cela aurait été un plaisir de dansé avec toi ! dommage pour toi !

[@FenrirLupo]

haha, well... if you are not good at it or you are shy or you feel intimidated, then yes, YOU do it at home, but when someone's really great, show to the world, its streetdance after all, on the STREETS, and its part of making a statement, a shoutout to all hip hop dancers and lovers of the urban dance culture. If you dont like it, why do you watch it, go watch something else...

[@MichaelCarterNoSymfienz]

This video just brought tears to my eyes. She is amazing if your ever In america you can join my groups sessions in Cali any Day. NoSympathy Dance Kings

[@osearthesp]

relax maybe it's for attention a bit and well deserved. sometimes positive attention is worth earning. maybe instead, you could look into working that mouth into a more useful smile, someday.. peace be with you. ;] On a second note I made quick FB fanpage for Funky Lia wwwfbcom/BGIRLFUNKYLIA

[@thethreeamazingmen]

that would be like introducing music or painting..it wouldnt make sense because they are an art form, not a sport. Dance does involve physical exercise but its purpose is to be an artform... besides they already have gymnastics...have you seen that!!! O__O amazing stufff

[@TheGokussj3030]

there r many fighting styles but they choose certant ones and but you r right if they did make dance part of the olmpics they would have to classify it but bboy would be a great one to add since its so flashy and group dance battles would be nice to srry for spelling

[@RealKoman]

IMO dance shouldn't be ever called a sport. Dancing is an art, everyone makes it different, everyone should be looking for his/her own style, so it's rules wouldn't be as simple as all the sports have. This is what makes it beautiful and this is what makes it evolve, right?

[@TheWariorPrincess]

The dancing is unquestionably awesome.. but I can't help looking at the people's expressions like... 'is she okay?' or when they wonder how to walk pass her. hh... I tell you people, when you see one like this, you STAY and WATCH! BTW, The subway scene is the best part!

[@MrDubsteppopper]

great people at 1:40 they watch her performing and the people loved it ! so cool

[@FenrirLupo]

well, not everyone, but yeah, some people, and like i said, maybe because some people are shy or feel intimidated, by the "society" in general, that they will be labeled as something, as you put it, but for me its part of making a statement, to the society...

[@Ivorysama]

AHAHA SHE IS JUST LIKE KITE! She must love Kite, those are all of his moves :D

[@lostny76]

I love it when videos are done in public and so raw like this. I just love to see the on looker in the back ground saying "what the fuck!" just love it. Wish I could give 2 likes but just one will have to do.

[@FenrirLupo]

maybe, everyone has a different reaction/perception on things, /watch?v=VLcKX1f9tnM < this one the music was added in pos, and though the crowd was somewhat surprised, they did welcome it...

[@Rotasu_]

No way dancing can ever be a sport. It's mostly and all about forms of expression and creativity. If there were Bboy battles as an olympics then that just ruins the culture and hip hop to dancing.

[@dbbreaking]

Popping in public trying to show off trying to be seen, why can't u just do it at your house, trying to show off nobody cares they got there own lives go pop below the river bed.
