NI-KI: kpop’s 4th gen main dancer | killing moments & dance break compilation (2020)

NI-KI COMING FOR WORLD DOMINATION!
fr though. he's literally, imo, the best dancer of kpop's 4th gen and he's only FIFTEEN...
kpop's best dancers are taemin, hoseok, jimin, and kai,,, and in the future, ni-ki'll inevitably join that tier :D i see him on the same level as nct's ten atm~
ni-ki can do acrobatics, ballet, hiphop, popping, female styles, and literally any other style of dance you can think of,, this boy's range is insane
(also hey guys it's been a while! wanted to upload a little compilation of ni-ki's best performances of 2020 before the end of the year~~ missed u all! )

in 4th gen there are only a few that give competition like yunho(ateez), bic(mcnd), yeonjun(txt). But the best dancer in kpop is rocky from astro without doubt, he is the best dancer that i have ever seen in my life. But niki is incredible and has definitely the best popping in 4th gen, and he only is 15.

Woooow. So as a Taemin fan who just stumbled upon Ni-Ki -- I'm so impressed. He's really unlike any other dancer I've seen. For example, Taemin has this way of looking effortless when he dances, like it's just sort of flowing out of him, almost like he's *becoming* the music... But with Ni-Ki, it's almost the opposite. It's more like he's *controlling* the music. He's in 100% control of his entire body at once, and he has a totally unique aura. If he's only moving a little, it's because of his deliberate restraint. If he's moving quickly, it's sharp, powerful, and precise. He never overdoes it or looks like he's trying too hard, just that he's in total control and very confident. That's such a cool quality to see in a young dancer. He's super talented. (That dance in the practice room??? What?? Insane.) I'm really looking forward to seeing how he matures!!

I have three favorite dancers in K-pop. Teamin, Jimin and now Ni-Ki. They are all of them on another level of dancing. Teamin has a very special style very close to Michael Jackson’s style .Well and there is Jimin the guy who made me love K-pop and BTS . And now I have Ni-Ki too. Incredible beautiful dancer and extremely good visual. All 3 of them. I love watching Enhypen because I followed these beautiful guys from the very beginning and I see how great they became after such a very short time. Bravo .

[@user-hr3lp4eb1h]

He was literally born to be a dancer Plus everyone in Enhypen has insane dancing skills

[@melrzhs]

many people actually underestimate ni-ki. as a dancer of all genres, his technique and control is SO impressive, and the fact he is still so young is insane. and he has become even better as the years have gone on. if you really study his dancing, he is SO fluid and smooth but such a power-based dancer. he is also creative with the way he stylizes choreo moves.

[@aayushmarae]

Ni-ki is insane no doubt..he can beat everyone in coming future ..Fact he is not good at only one , he is good in every genre 💅 Lastly his foot steps is insane ..while me can't have a proper walk

[@velvetlove7746]

As a shawol, i have to say this that after Taemin, I think Ni-Ki is going to be the one who will carry on this "hard choreos" legacy that only he himself can execute and cannot be imitated by others. After Taemin, Ni-Ki is becoming my favorite idol dancer.

Yes, I love him too, are Shawol fans of Shinee? I didn’t see him dance but I saw when he danced with Jimin, and my favorite dancer was Jimin and after him my favorite and best dancer is NI-KI

He worked so hard dancing for hours everyday from 3 years old just following along to his Michael Jackson DVD and it was because of his hard work and passion that he is where he is today.

There are a lot of amazing idol dancers, but Niki is the only 4th gen with the ability to flesh out a story with just his movements, the versatility, and the presence to be in the same league as the 3rd gen kings (Taemin, Jimin, J-Hope, Kai) imo. AND he's only 17 and in his 2nd year after debut so he may out-dance them all by the time he's done. just, WOW (shout out to Taeyong, Haechan and Ten for holding down the 3rd gen Prince tier)
