Dancer Breakdown: ILLIT (아일릿) ‘Magnetic’ Dance Practice

[@heydaedream]

I love this breakdown a lot!! Wouldn't call myself a 'stan' of the group but Clay's breakdown helped me appreciate the dance better. He's absolutely on point with the dance being so weird and playful yet it works so well!! Pretty iconic for a debut song if we're being honest.

[@steezystudio]

I honestly hope MORE routines go for this angle of weird and playful! But of course it's difficult to do because not all choreographers take such an original route like Renan and the others, and not all songs feel as... well, magnetic as this one 😅

[@Anyah.is.better.12]

Hey, STEEZY! Loved this video and how you guys broke up all the movements! I just had a suggestion for future reactions. I would love if you guys could react to Bada Lee. She is a VERY talented dancer and choreographer from Korea that has done some amazing things. She is signed under ‘Jam Republic The Agency’ for international schedules and classes. She mostly choreographs for SM artists since it’s more her style and flows with her identity well. Some of the groups and idols she has choreographed for are WayV, (Action Figure) Kai from EXO (Reason, Rover, Peaches choreographer and performance director, and has been a backup dancer for him on his tours and concerts around the world) Aespa, (Girls, Drama, and the choreography that gave her the recognition she deserves, Next Level) NCT, (90’s Love, and Deja Vu). Also some other artists form different companies such as BABYMONSTER’s ‘Sheesh’ and ‘Forever’ from YG Entertainment. She also choreographed a part of SEVENTEEN’s ‘Maestro. Which is a group signed under Pledis Entertaiment. She was also a backup dancer for BLACKPINK’s Lisa for her ‘Lili’s Film: THE MOVIE’. There are many more artists and choreographies she has done but these are just some of the more well-known ones. She also has her own KZbin channel where she uploads vlogs of her behind-the-scenes and also daily life. She also has her own little series on there called ‘Practice Room’s Bada’ where she has guests such as K-pop idols, artists, and other dancer and choreographers which she interviews/talks with them, teaches them choreo (or they teach her), and film dance challenges. She posts on her channel every Thursday at 7:00PM KST. She also appeared on the popular Korean dance competition show, ‘Street Woman Fighter 2’ with her dance crew BEBE (Lusher, Tatter, Sowon, Kyma, Minah, and Cheche, which are all also AMAZING dancers and choreographers you guys should check out individually and as a group.) Bada is the leader of BEBE, and they eventually came out on top as 1st place after months of dedication, consistency, and hard work. Team BEBE is signed under ‘The L1VE’ label and also have their own separate KZbin channel as well. She has also opened her own dance studio with her business partner, Howl. You can book the dance studio for multiple hours to practice. You can also find her classes on Urban Play Academy’s KZbin channel, JustJerk’s, and also her occasional pop-up classes at YGX, Feedback, and 1MILLION. Justjerk has a whole playlist of all of Bada’s classes and I believe Urban Play does as well. Although she does not teach as often anymore, (considering before the show she taught every week) she recently taught in NYC to the choreography her and Kirsten made, ‘Candyman’. She also taught two classes at KDC Complex in Mexico to ‘Rockstar’ and ‘Candy Paint’. All of her social media accounts are ‘badalee_’ There is much more about Bada Lee and I could go on forever, but this is just a little overview that I tried to make as thorough as possible to give you guys a good idea of who she is. I hope you guys would react to her soon! Love your videos!❤

@@steezystudio steezy I have a recommendation to breakdown sung hanbin artists of the month (AOTM) it's studio choom content. He's doing an incredible TUTTING dance there, you may love to check it out ☺️❤️

[@loredell]

They smashed their debut. Unfortunate things happened, but we are seeing the light and the evil woman has stepped down a feeeeeeeeeeew notches xD

[@AgehanaNina]

This dance, for me, is the embodiment of what I imagine dreamcore/maximalism as a dance. It's horrendous and weird but cute and lovely

[@ihatemrbean7009]

“This was unfortunately fantastic” is exactly how i felt when i begrudgingly first got into kpop.

[@steezystudio]

Totally get that! K-pop has a way of winning you over, even if it’s unexpected. 😄🎶

[@Rawrtato]

clay really took "dancer breakdown" literally, especially at the end 😂 I loved this!! can't wait for more!!

[@joed5207]

The phrase "unfortunately fantastic" is a masterpiece.

[@sarahlady5306]

"it's so weird. And I love that" 😂😂😂

[@aggrogahu]

Nice that the lower body work was pointed out. Obviously they're professionals, but there's so many details there that elevate the performance so much.

[@Gina_bps-cs2289]

"I hate this" never sounded more lovingly.

[@steezystudio]

99% love, but that lil bit of hate just adds some ✨ spice 🌶

[@leedontknow1]

8:17 “I hate it but i like it “ bro is soo real for that one

[@okaylesssgo]

The thing with some moves in this dance is that they're WEIRD but good weird because someone would never even think of putting or doing those moves with this song but strangely they go with this song and it's so addictive at the same time! Because they're weird and everyone wants to try them. The hand movements are so precise and detailed it aches my head. At the same time it's CUTE. I don't get how someone could possibly put all this together to get all these effects.

[@idkjustk1]

"This is unfortunately fantastic" I love that 😂

[@LoafII87]

Magnetic's choreo is so addictive and I loved you breakdown of it!!!

[@RRr86445]

And that's why I think Magnetic is a song they can't actually sing very well. The dance is so complicated and detailed that it takes much more than coordination. I would totally say this is one of the hardest dances of kpop.

[@steezystudio]

I couldn't even dream of singing while doing this routine

[@megankeightley9018]

They are the cutest group I’ve ever seen in kpop

[@pilotkey6526]

This choreo is so fun it made me stand up after a two years of break and learn the chorus. It was a challenge but man was it satisfying!

[@omnitvz]

I'm not even a K-Pop fan, but for some reason I was drawn to this song and dance.

[@minayuna715]

So excited for this series to be back - the new set-up looks soo nice!! Can’t wait for more Episodes hahah

[@taenyhi]

Loooooove this appreciation to Magnetic and Illit! The melody and dance are sooo catchy and the girls just did it look soo cool! Thanks so much for this reaction!

[@explogeek]

This dance got into KPOP dances, and dancing in general. I made a video of me doing it horribly and it got popular 😂 I'm 36 male and never danced in my life before

[@ItzNidzy]

OMG U DID SO GOOD

[@udance4ever]

yes, y'all should watch it! love that it inspired you to dance! 💝

[@Belbecat]

Lol, I think this goes for the group and the song as well how nothing feels like it should work or be liked but it's just somehow undeniably addicting and loveable.

[@HannyGarba]

YESSS thank you so much for reacting to ILLIT they also have more songs with cool choreo like Lucky girl syndrome! Enhypens fatal trouble is also a really amazing choreography

[@togarmah9848]

@@HannyGarba i’m all for lucky girl syndrome🫡

[@isaiahbenoit2319]

Irona is the main dancer and used to be a hip hop dancer girl in all pink

[@paulinaguerrero3928]

I really like the promo of the classes on the video, helps me know what to look for, thank you ❤

[@HailToTheMeep]

My favorite dance breakdown 2024 😊 This song and dance are so catchy and addicting. Didn’t know anything about ILLIT until this song. Love it. Love the loving playful sarcastic detailed technical reaction. ❤

[@jenniegimm]

we think they’ll be having a comeback in September maybe August… check in for an announcement!!!

[@steezystudio]

So glad you loved the breakdown! ILLIT really does have a catchy vibe. Thanks for the awesome feedback! 🎶

[@TheJacqueswong]

That's it! I just got new words from you "bad good", "unfortunately fantastic" these are phrases that i can use! Thank you! I love that you knew and can detect every dance they made. I love it!

[@lLLIT_official]

i would love you to rate lucky girl syndrome by illit!!

[@user-sl5tt8jf2k]

아일릿 귀엽고 마그네틱 노래 귀에 쏙쏙 들어오는 멜로디인데 춤을 이렇게 자세히 보기는 처음이네요~ 재밌었어요 ^^

[@udance4ever]

@4:53 omg - thank you for calling out the Charleston & so many other ole skool moves! i just couldn't put my tongue on any of them & it *is* fascinating how they made these moves fresh again!

[@steezystudio]

Right?! We love how they blended those old-school moves with a fresh twist-it’s dance magic! ✨

[@gnsdl116]

노래랑 안무자체는 진짜 완성도 높은 곡 같습니다

[@wolfyblue]

9:21 it could be, the concept is well versed with modern japanese culture concept, it has the lolita harajuku concept and even anime references like sailor moon, the you you you pose is actually the sailor moon "in the name of the moon i will punish you" pose

[@Vivyah]

I love their whole album ❤

[@QUIVOT]

This was a really fun watch with super engaging and hilarious commentary. Please make more!

[@karimaltamira4221]

No puedo creeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrloo Steezy mi canal favorito reaccionando a un video de ILLIT, el grupo favorito de mi hija....GRACIAS

[@maudebenoit9101]

I missed these videos so muuuch!

[@steezystudio]

I missed making them 😌

[@Vellona]

Your use of oxymorons in 9:02 was seriously funny.

[@HJ-lk2od]

I like this choreo. it’s unique and fun

[@adamyarajput5136]

Would love a breakdown of Taemin's dance practices!! Missed this series let's go!!!

[@hawleyolsen170]

Oh my life, yes, all of the Taemin, please. Steezy did a video with Ian Eastwood, who's choreographed for SHINee and Taemin, but I always need more.

[@steezystudio]

Which ones would you like to see most?? 👀

[@hawleyolsen170]

The Rizzness is fantastic. No dance practice vid for that, but there's a Music Bank video that gives a really clear look at the choreo. I also love One (Monster & Infinity), which is SuperM. Maybe take a look at Sherlock, which is SHINee, a lot of cool group choreo in that one. And then Move is a definitive choreo in Taemin's solo career and is an absolute classic. I don't know if anyone would consider this a Taemin standard, but Advice is jaw dropping to me. I still can't believe they are moving that fast, it doesn't quite look real.

[@adamyarajput5136]

The rizzness, criminal, idea, advice, move are all top picks

[@soangiewrites5639]

Clay's slinky slimy slip to the floor at the end! LOL!

[@megnolia1989]

So glad this is back!! Please break down Enhypen Fatal Trouble or XO!

[@steezystudio]

Great recs!!

[@ayxtie]

PLEASE i need this, especially fatal trouble

[@nikkehsky]

Dancer breakdown is back and it didn't disappoint! Love these, so much insight, and now I have a better idea why I was so obsessed with this choreo 😂

[@steezystudio]

So glad you enjoyed it! Happy to hear the breakdown gave you more insight into the choreography! 🌟🙌

[@Neon2.00]

2:50 Help he ATE that up!!😮

[@parktasha8287]

i loveee this song and the dances and i also noticed the dance are kinda sharp or snappy for a cute and bubbly song like they really nailed that perfectly. amazing

[@steezystudio]

Glad you loved it! The sharp moves really do add a unique touch to the song. Thanks for noticing! 🔥

[@wdnzgj93161]

The song, the choreo, and the group all came together to embody what they were going for. It's a delightful composition. Interesting breakdown

[@steezystudio]

Glad you enjoyed it! The combination really does create something special. Thanks for watching! 🌟

[@aldengroves5193]

Really happy to see Clay doing these again. Would love to see a breakdown of Armageddon by Aespa or Walk by NCT127

[@EkM-cl2bn]

@aldengroves5193 omg yes Aespa please!

[@steezystudio]

I could be convinced 👀 Could you tell me what you love about those dances?

[@aldengroves5193]

@@steezystudio 'Aespa - Armageddon' has some really excellent use of formations, and the hits(?) in the choreo during the hook have really excellent texture (both things that I really appreciate your specific analysis of!) There's a lot of moments that have a really tactile bounce/weight to them and-kinda like the Magentic choreo-there's a lot of unique shapes that I think you'll appreciate. 'NCT 127 - Walk' seems like the choreo is just dozens of different takes on the concept of walking. There's lots of really excellent footwork and musicality to it. Lots of fast-and-slow, big switchups in momentum. Tons of classic hip-hop steps that are reinterpreted in cool ways. Lots of stuff that's super relevant to the Intermediate Hip Hop course too I think. Plus it's just a VIBE and the NCT 127 guys wear the choreo well. Total aside: want more choreography vids from you Clay! I love and am inspired by your style. Thanks for all that you do and for helping to make Steezy what it is!

[@chuuri]

i would add supernatural and/or how sweet by newjeans or because there are so many fundamental hip hop/popping moves i'm sure clay could shed light on! edit: also +1 to nct 127 walk!!

[@WolffBlurr]

Clay melting onto the floor at the end lmao XD but like for real yeah what a unique and fun dance! Looking forward to seeing of your breakdowns again, I’ve really missed them
