(Stage Fighter)

(Lead role: The main character on the stage)

I'm the lead role in almost every work.

(Former National Dance Company of Korea Lead Role, Choi Ho Jong)

In the State of Ballet Georgia,

I frequently worked in the lead role.

He was a lead dancer in Georgia.

Isn't he cool?

I must be the leading role.

I love it when the spotlight is on me.

Anyone who's on stage wants the lead role.

The qualifications of a lead role...

The lead role's air.

Dazzling, popular, and acknowledged.

Someone worthy of the spotlight.

He must be able to carry the weight.

But everyone can't take on the same role.

In Stage Fighter, classes are important...

as they will decide the dancer's role.

First Class gets the lead role with a solo part.

Second Class gets the supporting role as a duo or trio.

Under Class will be in the ensemble dancing as a group.

Some people will be heartbroken.

I'm starting to get annoyed.

I wanted the leading role but ended up in the ensemble.

- Is it okay to between you two? - Of course.

Can I really be here?

It was very embarrassing.

I was desperate to break free from the ensemble.

I was jealous.

A lead role is an extremely cool position.

And others will be in total bliss.

Either way, we were brought up in such an environment.

It's an environment we are used to.

Dancers climb up from the bottom...

and block from the above.

Not everyone is fit to be the lead role.

If you're First Class, you would be...

the lead role or principal dancer in a dance company.

Only those chosen can be the lead role.

(Which dancer will become the lead role?)

(Stage Fighter)

(Stage Fighter)

(It's finally the day of the Class Battle.)

(Through the Class assigned in the Class Battle,)

(the role in Stage Fighter's first mission, Dance Film,)

(will be decided.)

(First Class is the leading role.)

(Second Class is the supporting role.)

(Under Class is in the ensemble.)

I got the lead role ever since I was young.

(It'll be the fight for the lead role.)

(I'd hate to lose my lead role. It's mine.)

(I don't want to be in the ensemble.)

(We're not here for the ensemble.)

(It'll be a deadly battle.)

(The Class Battle has become more intense...)

(with the Dance Film role at stake.)

(Who will advance to First Class and get the lead role?)

(The day of ballet's Class Battle)

The Class Battle for Stage Fighter's ballet...

will soon begin.

Ballet dancers of Group One,

please stand by on the right side of the backstage.

I'm dying to see them.

I wonder what ballet...

- they will do. - It'll be interesting.

The Under Class ballerinos will go on stage first.

Ballerino Choi Kyu Tae.

Ballerino Kim Tae Yeon.

You're looking cool.

He already has this air as he walks in.

- That's needed. - Because he seems reliable.

Kyu Tae walked in with determination.

I love this atmosphere.

Second Class. Ballerino Kim Sang Young.

Ballerino Moon Jun On.

Ballerino Kang Yun Gu.

Ballerino Jeon Tae Hu.

They must be nervous.

Lastly, First Class. Ballerino Kim Yu Chan.

Ballerino Kang Gyeong Ho.

Yu Chan and Gyeong Ho were already rivals.

I first met Yu Chan at a dance competition in grade eight.

He crushed me.

I didn't win any awards.

From what I remember, he got the Grand Prize.

I'll go to Group D, then.

I don't start fights that I know I'm going to lose.

(They finally compete against each other in the Class Battle.)

Gyeong Ho jumps really well. Gosh, seriously.

Gyeong Ho's power and masculinity...

are his strongest points.

However,

unlike Gyeong Ho,

I have a beautiful figure,

which I'm very confident about.

I should use my figure.

What kind of expression do I make?

I think a push and pull of expressions,

starting with a cool expression and then smiling,

is more artistic.

- What do you want to do, Gyeong Ho? - I will start with a smile.

I feel it's a good idea to catch the eyes...

with a facial expression first.

I received feedback...

that I lacked expressiveness.

(During the Physical and Technique Audition)

(Your techniques were great.)

(But you could make better facial expressions.)

(You lack artistic expression.)

(I hope you can work on it a little more.)

I should show my expressiveness more.

(Kim Yu Chan will use his strong points to the max.)

(Kang Gyeong Ho will improve the faults pointed out.)

(Second and Under Classes are after First Class.)

(Glancing)

The front spots looked nice.

Let's take it from them.

I think it's more entertaining...

to take someone else's spot.

Now, we will begin the Class Battle of Ballet Group One.

I'm so looking forward to this. Goodness.

I'm nervous.

First position.

Light.

Music, start.

Five, four...

(Under Class Kim Tae Yeon, Second Class Kang Yun Gu)

(Second Class Moon Jun On, First Class Kang Gyeong Ho)

One.

(The look in his eyes changes.)

Nice, Gyeong Ho.

(Under Class Kim Tae Yeon, Second Class Kang Yun Gu)

(Second Class Moon Jun On, First Class Kang Gyeong Ho)

(The ballerinos dance in their style.)

(The thrill)

Gyeong Ho pops out.

Yun Gu is amazing.

(Cheering)

(Pleased)

(A clean finish with the last pose)

(First Class Kim Yu Chan, Second Class Jeon Tae Hu)

(Second Class Kim Sang Young, Under Class Choi Kyu Tae)

(Focused)

Okay.

Tae Hu's battu was nice.

Goodness.

Good. The arabesque was great.

My gosh.

(Let's go.)

Okay.

Nice.

They're so cool.

(Ballet Group 1's 1st Class Movement Evaluation has ended.)

- Goodness. - Okay.

Good.

(Great job.)

(Cheering loudly)

Bravo!

(Jaw dropping)

- Ballet sure is cool. - Should I attend a ballet academy?

Our legs are too thick for it.

(Laughing)

(The master and coaches are discussing.)

I think Gyeong Ho should stay in First Class.

Yu Chan didn't catch my eye. What do you think?

Let's bump Kang Yun Gu up.

How about we change Kyu Tae with Sang Young?

(Kim Sang Young made a mistake.)

(Bummed out)

- Shall we wrap it up here for now? - Yes.

The promotion and demotion evaluation process...

of Ballet Group One will begin.

The dancer promoted in the Second Class is...

Kang Yun Gu.

(Kang Yun Gu is promoted to First Class.)

As Second Class Kang Yun Gu has been promoted,

the demoted First Class dancer is...

Kim Yu Chan.

(Kim Yu Chan is demoted to Second Class.)

I was bummed out. Very bummed out, at that.

Kim Yu Chan.

(Surprised)

- It's Yu Chan. - This is crazy.

- It can happen. - Of course.

- You never know. - You don't.

Yun Gu shined more on stage...

than in the practice room.

Dancers who try to stand out...

by expressing themselves really grab the attention.

Kim Yu Chan.

You know your strong points...

very well.

Contrary to that,

you failed to make up for your weak points.

Being smooth, beautiful, and pretty is great.

But from what I saw, you lacked a lot...

in power and speed.

Second Class Kang Yun Gu...

and First Class Kim Yu Chan.

Please move positions.

(1st Class Kim Yu Chan and 2nd Class Kang Yun Gu move classes.)

I wasn't happy about it.

Standing behind Kang Gyeong Ho hurt my pride.

I will go back to First Class.

The dancer demoted in the Second Class is...

Kim Sang Young.

(Upset)

The dancer promoted in the Under Class is...

Choi Kyu Tae.

You must've come on stage with determination.

Your energy, eyes, and mental attitude...

were depicted in the dance. Great job.

Thank you.

Please move to your class positions.

(2nd Class Kim Sang Young and Under Class Choi Kyu Tae...)

(move classes.)

(Ballet Group 1's 2nd Class Movement Evaluation)

One. Go.

(As expected from them)

(Kang Gyeong Ho and Choi Kyu Tae show their styles.)

Nice jump!

(Kang Gyeong Ho and Choi Kyu Tae show their styles.)

(Cheering and impressed)

Gyeong Ho is killing everyone.

Oh, my gosh.

(His heart is pounding.)

Kyu Tae started off with cool poses.

I was anxious.

It could be the last chance to get promoted.

We will watch you a second time.

(We will watch you a second time!)

(This is my chance!)

We'll keep our expectations high.

There's another chance left. Let's seize it.

We will proceed with the next Class Movement Evaluations.

This time, I should make up for my weaknesses.

One. Go.

(Cheering)

I'll show them for sure.

Yu Chan has pulled himself together this time.

(This is amazing.)

He's good.

Let's not falter.

Gosh, how clean.

- Bravo! - Well done!

They were absolutely cool.

They killed it.

Yu Chan beat everyone this round.

He kept dancing smoothly, then changed it as it didn't work.

Yu Chan is the definition of classical.

But Gyeong Ho is very charming.

- Let's decide who is First Class. - Yes.

I will reveal the dancers' final classes...

of Ballet Group One.

Firstly, the Under Class.

The Under Class dancers are...

Kim Tae Yeon,

Kim Sang Young,

Moon Jun On,

Kang Yun Gu, and sadly,

Choi Kyu Tae.

They're going back to the Under Class?

(During the third Class Movement Evaluations)

It's too unimpressive.

Kyu Tae doesn't have the fundamentals.

The first dancer...

to be in the Second Class is...

Jeon Tae Hu.

(Ballet, Group 1, 2nd Class, Jeon Tae Hu)

He didn't exactly appeal to me in Physical and Technique Audition.

But when he was actually on the stage,

he started showing his charms...

perhaps because he was more confident.

I'd like to give him a chance.

Good luck.

There are only two left.

Kang Gyeong Ho...

and Kim Yu Chan.

(Can we...)

(What is it?)

Can we...

have the two perform again?

(The judges ask for a rematch between Gyeong Ho and Yu Chan.)

Gosh, it's 1 on 1?

Just those two?

I was expecting it.

It had finally come.

I was worried because it was Yu Chan.

I badly want to win.

- This is a head-on match. - Yes.

(For the one spot in the First Class,)

(they have the final match.)

First position.

Light.

Music, start.

- I was more than determined. - Five, four...

I'll give it my all in these 30 seconds.

One. Go.

- They have such different styles! - That's too...

That's it.

(That's what I'm talking about.)

(Grinning from ear to ear)

They're like swans.

Yes!

(Clapping)

- Bravo! - Bravo!

(Clapping automatically)

That was so cool.

Now, that's...

(Clasping hands together)

Who's going to the First Class?

Gyeong Ho is good.

Gyeong Ho's technique is still just as good as Yu Chan's.

Yu Chan's moves are so delicate.

Wasn't Yu Chan so beautiful just now?

(The judges' opinions differ. Who will they choose?)

I will announce the dancer...

who proved his skills and will be in the First Class.

I was thinking that I'd beat him again.

I want to beat him this time.

The dancer in Group 1 to go to the 1st Class is...

(Who will be in the First Class and play the lead in the Dance Film?)

Kang Gyeong Ho.

First Class Kang Gyeong Ho...

will play the lead role in the Ballet Dance Film.

Congratulations.

Kang Gyeong Ho.

(Yu Chan lost his spot in the First Class.)

Yu Chan will be in the Second Class.

(Group 1, 2nd Class, Kim Yu Chan)

(Well done.)

I liked Yu Chan more in this one.

But what's more important is that I could only see Gyeong Ho...

when they were all on the stage.

It's just as crucial to stand out at first.

- That's true. - And Gyeong Ho...

- did that perfectly. - Right.

(After the Class Battle of Ballet Group 1)

Second.

Under.

(The dancers got the armbands according to their classes.)

I'm in the Second Class.

I could have done better,

but the supporting actors...

often make it bigger in a drama.

It felt good. I had done it.

I went against Yu Chan,

so I certainly felt proud when I beat him.

I want to try harder to deserve this spot.

(The ballet dancers' first practice day after choosing the choreography)

(The ballet dancers chose Shin Min Kwon's choreography.)

(Clapping)

(Welcome.)

I'm Shin Min Kwon, who's going to teach you today.

Shall we begin right away?

- Yes. - Yes.

Is this the formation we're going with?

You can tell the ones you don't like to go to the back.

No, they should come forward.

(Flustered)

I thought, "This is insane."

- That's brutal. - That's even harsher.

So, he wants to humiliate us.

I came up with the choreography, so I was confident.

Let's start.

Take one breath.

To the inside... I should face you to see your arms.

Take one breath.

To the inside. One, two, three, four.

- It's confusing. - Can you do the mirror mode?

- I will. - Mirror mode, please.

Forward.

(Master Shin's ballet class begins in earnest.)

Okay. Good.

Mr. Shin, after we do this,

do we take another step before the spin?

- Yes, take another step. - Okay.

(Is he spinning right away?)

- After the spin... - Didn't he spin right away?

Give me a second.

None of us were showing it,

but I'm sure all of us were puzzled.

We were like, "What's wrong with this guy?"

(Realizing)

I think we can go like this.

(Embarrassed)

How do we go left?

Left? I haven't thought of that.

But you're our teacher.

(Reading the room)

As we normally say, he was bewildered.

He hasn't taught anyone before,

so he seemed to be easily swayed by us.

After the jump,

- do we go right away? - Yes.

Right after the jump,

take a step... Just a moment.

It could have been way better.

He wasn't prepared for it.

I should say that he wasn't sure about his own moves.

(Min Kwon goes over his choreography again for a long time.)

(Was it this?)

It was frustrating.

This is driving me insane.

- I can't keep up. - Even he's not sure about it.

- Just do it the way you want. - But some of us...

are taking our left feet...

- Doesn't that matter? - It's the left foot.

- Is it? - We're taking another step, right?

- Yes. - After the pose.

(The ballet dancers ask each other to get the details right.)

I thought we were running out of time as it was a competition.

But we were wasting our time away,

so I was very frustrated.

(Seething)

- Mr. Shin? - Yes.

After the turn, do we spin our arms inside?

Can you show me what to do with my arms and legs...

after the entrelace?

Can you give us the directions about the beat there?

Where do we look during that part?

I should have made up my mind before this.

Your choreography has already been chosen,

so keep pushing forward with it.

(Tension builds.)

If you're confused, it ends up confusing all of us.

I thought, "Yes, keep being stupid."

"That'll be great news for me."

I was having a mental breakdown.

Although I had created it, I had such a short time...

that even I wasn't familiar with it yet.

But they were asking me about all the minute details,

and I had a brain overload.

(The 1st Class dancers from Group 2 practice first.)

(Slipping)

I thought, "I could beat him."

He didn't seem so confident.

I thought that I could make it to First Class.

This was my chance. I had to take it.

I was positive that I could move up.

I have to keep my place in the First Class.

I'm sure Min Kwon will be demoted to the Second Class.

I think I'll be in the 1st Class in Group 2.

(The 2nd Class dancers aiming at the 1st Class)

I think Min Kwon's choreography...

suits me better than him.

Whether it's Min Kwon or Tae Seok,

I think I can take their spot.

I was very worried. It was my choreography, after all.

Group Two? I believe there will be...

some huge changes.

Even the Under Class dancers could go up.

I'll crush 2nd Class and go to 1st Class.

(What's the result of Group 2's Class Battle?)

(Group 2)

The competition is fierce in this group.

Now, we will begin the Class Battle...

of Ballet Group Two.

I think I'll take First Class.

I believe I'll keep my position.

It was my choreography, so I was confident.

First position.

Light.

Music, start.

(Park Min Woo, An Si On, Jung Sung Wook, and Kim Tae Seok)

Four, three...

(Looking forward to it)

One. Go.

- How are they so good? - That's fabulous.

(Tae Seok moves his head violently after every movement.)

(Looking closely)

(The ballet dancers portray a swan in their own styles.)

I feel like they'll fly away.

That's fantastic.

He's too slow.

(Disappointed)

He's so good that I keep comparing him.

Sung Wook is way too good.

(A perfect turn)

(Impressed)

Great techniques by Sung Wook.

Tae Seok does seem a bit heavy.

(Feeling bad)

(Sung Wook and Tae Seok finished it in two very different styles.)

(Shin Min Kwon, Kim Kyung Won, Jung Min Chan, and Lee Ha Nel)

(Focused)

I can't wait to see how the choreographer does it.

Go.

His upper body movements are so neat.

(Exclaiming)

(He pulls it off neatly as he created the choreography.)

(Adding a little wave)

(His eyes grow bigger.)

I like that vibe.

(On the other hand, Kyung Won moves with power.)

It's very masculine.

They're like rivals, right?

(Slipping)

(He notices it.)

(But Kyung Won did the same part without a mistake.)

(Min Kwon and Kyung Won had very different styles.)

(Exclaiming)

(Applauding)

That was sick.

Sung Wook definitely caught my attention.

Min Kwon...

(Nervous)

seemed emotionless.

Kyung Won was great, wasn't he?

Right? He's so good.

So many changes.

(He acknowledges it.)

I will announce the dancer to be promoted from the Second Class.

The dancer to be promoted in the Second Class...

is Jung Sung Wook.

(Sung Wook is promoted to the First Class.)

I did see it coming, to some extent.

You stood out so much.

Your position and choreography were both accurate,

but your arm movements and expressions were unique too.

I saw how you kept the same distance from the dancers next to you...

when the dance switched to the left side.

Sung Wook is too good.

That's a great compliment.

As Sung Wook is promoted from the Second Class,

I will announce who will be demoted from the First Class.

To be honest, I hope it's not me.

Although I was confident as it was my choreography,

I was still a bit worried.

I don't think Min Kwon will be demoted.

- I think he will be. - No way.

The dancer to be demoted from the First Class...

is Shin Min Kwon, unfortunately.

Oh, no. He's the choreographer.

Min Kwon,

you made this choreography yourself.

It doesn't seem like you have any idea...

what you're doing as you dance.

(Dropping his head)

(Min Kwon danced without any expressions.)

(And he even made a mistake.)

The First Class is for dancers...

who play the lead role in a dance company.

I don't think you set an example to deserve that spot.

He's so harsh with his words.

It was such a shock...

that it felt like a smack on the head.

The choreographers certainly have more on their shoulders.

(Agreeing)

You can't really focus on practising.

(Agreeing)

Second Class Jung Sung Wook...

and First Class Shin Min Kwon.

Please move positions.

(1st Class Shin Min Kwon and 2nd Class Jung Sung Wook...)

(move classes.)

I didn't exactly feel bad.

I was finally at a place that I deserved.

I was relieved.

In Ballet Group Two,

I will announce the dancer to be promoted from the Second Class.

("Promoted?")

(Another promotion?)

The dancer to be promoted from the Second Class...

is Kim Kyung Won.

The dancer to be demoted from the First Class is...

Kim Tae Seok.

- No way. - They were both replaced?

Please move positions.

(1st Class Kim Tae Seok and 2nd Class Kim Kyung Won...)

(move classes.)

In Tae Seok's case, I could tell that you had your way...

of expressing it with your unique character and drama, but...

Everything was expressed only in emotions.

That could have been better.

I wasn't discouraged...

because I was sure that there would be another chance.

This place is terrifying.

Ballet Group Two,

there will be another Class Movement Evaluation.

I meant to show them everything without any mistakes.

Let's get back up there.

What you do after you're replaced...

- is what matters. - Right.

- It's the most important. - The attitude...

counts.

Music.

Start.

(Which ballerino will prove himself through this performance?)

Go.

Kyung Won is so good.

He's sexy.

Sung Wook is trying to keep his place.

(He's trying to stay in the First Class.)

Sung Wook is amazing.

I was determined to be in the First Class.

Nice.

Very good.

I haven't shown them my entire confidence about my moves.

That's fantastic.

I kept telling myself, "I can do it."

That's right!

(Cheering)

I couldn't let my guard down.

(Admiring)

(Gasping)

Beautiful.

Ballet is cool.

(Shin Min Kwon, Kim Tae Seok)

(Kim Kyung Won, Jung Sung Wook)

(Ballet Group 2's 2nd performance ends.)

It gets more dynamic over time.

He's really good.

The new guy in the First Class.

Sung Wook killed it.

Isn't it obviously Sung Wook?

He's definitely in the First Class.

Sung Wook? Right? He's so good.

We have to pick the ones for the Second Class,

- so it should be these four. - Yes.

We'd like to take another look at some of them.

(Flinching)

Kim Tae Seok, Shin Min Kwon,

Kim Kyung Won, and Jung Min Chan.

May we take another look?

- It's been decided. - They chose the First Class.

It's probably Sung Wook.

I was thinking, "I must be in the First Class."

The competition is fierce for the Second Class.

All the dancers in the Second Class are so good.

I can't wait to watch this.

I realized that I'd be in the Under Class if I didn't do well.

"If I do poorly here, I'm going to end up in the Under Class."

"Let's show them what I've got."

I meant to show them whatever I had left.

First position.

Light.

Music.

Start.

Their emotions are...

Even their facial expressions changed.

Go.

Kyung Won looks amazing.

They look great.

Min Kwon is good.

Good energy right now.

(Pleased)

How is Kyung Won so sexy?

(Oh, my swans.)

I'd like to be in the Second Class at least.

I was worried.

Going to the Under Class meant...

all of my efforts going down the drain.

I feel so bad for them.

(Getting emotional with them)

I'm not worried because I'm confident.

(Getting immersed)

(Shin Min Kwon, Kim Tae Seok, Kim Kyung Won)

Okay.

Nice!

(You can watch the dancers' full performances on The CHOOM.)

- Amazing. - I know.

I honestly can't tell.

(Fallen in the Swan Lake)

Their strengths and weaknesses are so clear.

This is tough.

I will announce the final classes of Ballet Group Two.

First,

the Under Class.

(Announcing the Under Class)

(Group 2, Under Class)

The dancers in the Under Class are...

Lee Ha Nel,

An Si On,

Park Min Woo,

and Jung Min Chan.

(Sighing out of sadness)

(One more spot left in the Under Class)

Kim Tae Seok,

Kim Kyung Won,

Shin Min Kwon,

and Jung Sung Wook.

One of these four dancers will be...

in the Under Class.

I know because I've been demoted before,

and it breaks your heart when you're demoted among four.

I don't think Min Kwon will be demoted.

He did it pretty neatly.

But Tae Seok has a lead role's appearance.

He's got the face.

How is Kyung Won so sexy?

He looks like he's not Korean.

Sung Wook showed an insane sense of balance.

It's a narrow margin.

(The 4 skilled dancers showed their unique styles.)

One of the four dancers going to the Under Class is...

Kim Tae Seok.

(Kim Tae Seok is in the Under Class of Group 2.)

Tae Seok...

has been demoted from the First Class to the Under Class.

He made it sure there.

You were demoted from the First Class to the Second Class,

and it probably made you feel anxious.

We could see that.

It's nice to turn it into your style,

but it wasn't classical enough.

I felt some of that.

I realized it after listening to his review.

That I ruined my own performance.

I kept reminding myself...

of what I've been missing.

(Nodding)

The dancer in the First Class...

is Jung Sung Wook.

Jung Sung Wook in the First Class...

will play the lead role in the Ballet Dance Film.

I will announce the dancers in the Second Class.

It's Kim Kyung Won.

My goal was the First Class, so I couldn't be satisfied yet.

But I believe this will allow me...

to keep my eyes on the goal.

Shin Min Kwon will be in the Second Class.

If only I hadn't made a mistake,

I might have defeated Sung Wook.

It was a bummer.

I started out as the choreographer...

and ended up in the Second Class.

But I'm going to finish in the First Class.

I wasn't too happy about being demoted to the Under Class.

I'll probably make a resolution as I look at that armband.

I got the First Class today.

I was exhilarated,

but I'll probably do my best to play the part...

responsibly.

(Final Ballet Classes)

Now, we will begin Stage Fighter's Class Battle...

in the contemporary dance category,

Choreographed Combination Audition.

The dancers in the Under Class will enter first.

Under Class, Oh Hyeok Heon.

Second Class, Lee Jin Woo,

Park Jin Ho,

Kim Tae Gang,

and Lee Jeong Hoon.

Lastly, the First Class of Group Two will enter.

First Class Kim Hye Hyun.

First Class Kim Young Woong.

What a good lineup of First Class.

Kim Young Woong and Kim Hye Hyun.

That is all for Group Two of Contemporary Dance.

The choreographer of this mission...

is in this group.

It's Kim Hye Hyun.

How do you feel? Are you happy?

I'm feeling very nervous because I need to do well.

He must feel pressured.

Was there any dancer who pulled off...

the dance better than you?

(Hesitating)

(Who made the choreographer feel nervous?)

I didn't look at the other dancers much.

(Stone-faced)

Kim Hye Hyun's choreography was selected,

so he must understand the flow and the texture of the dance...

better than anyone else.

So I felt a bit pressured.

(When the groups were revealed)

(Contemporary Dance Group 2 has Kim Hye Hyun, the choreographer.)

- My gosh. - Goodness.

(Jaw dropping)

(Glancing at him)

This won't be an easy fight.

One slip, and he might take First Class from you.

(A bitter laugh)

Beating Hye Hyun with his choreography?

Is that possible?

Something I was concerned about came true.

The choreographer pulls off his own choreography best.

But I'm going to take First Class no matter what.

"Let's make those movements mine."

(The morning of Class Battle)

(The contemporary dancers are practising hard.)

(He keeps looking at someone during the practice.)

This is competition.

So I observed the details of his movements carefully.

To take them.

(Give them to me.)

- Hye Hyun, can you show me this? - Okay.

Spin, and here.

I needed to make Hye Hyun's dance mine.

I asked him a lot of questions to dance exactly like him.

- "I'll steal your place." - Do I go down?

He taught me in detail even though I was his competitor.

I thought he was very kind.

It's a survival show. I wouldn't have taught others.

If I didn't teach them the details,

I thought that would be below the belt.

It was my choreography anyway, so I wasn't worried.

But I didn't want to compete against Kim Young Woong.

(Kim Young Woong and Kim Hye Hyun met in the same group.)

(He realizes it won't be easy.)

This group has such competent First Classes.

Will it be Seoul International or Korea International?

They're both solid.

I think he'll be good, so I'm a bit worried.

Young Woong...

has the untouchable vibe.

Young Woong might look good on the stage.

- I'm looking forward to him. - Me too.

It feels like a master that was hiding on a mountain...

came down to the society.

He is an ascetic.

(An ascetic)

I don't like the feeling of breaking out of the immersion.

I tend to stay alone to get immersed...

into the task I need to complete.

There's no camera to film you if you dance here.

It's fine even if I don't get filmed.

(He gives up on being filmed to get immersed.)

As I kept practising, I thought...

I could make the choreography into mine.

I could join the First Class.

I made the choreography, so I'm confident.

I'll keep being in the First Class.

Until we find the right class for the dancers,

Class Movement Evaluations will continue...

for Class Battle.

Who is the one dancer that will prove himself...

and become the First Class?

Contemporary Dance Group Two's...

Class Battle starts now.

(Contemporary Dance Class Battle)

You can do it.

Everyone, do your best.

First position.

Light.

Music, start.

Three, two,

one. Go.

(Kim Young Woong, Kim Hye Hyun)

Oh, nice.

Young Woong is doing great.

(Oh Hyeok Heon, Park Jin Ho, Lee Jeong Hoon, Kim Young Woong)

Young Woong, nice.

His movements are neat. Isn't Young Woong really good?

(Getting chills)

Nice.

Bravo.

(First, Kim Hye Hyun, Second, Kim Tae Gang, Second, Lee Jin Woo)

Tae Gang doesn't look young at all on the stage.

His expression looks relaxed.

Look at Hye Hyun. He's so stable.

Everything about his movements is neat.

Nice.

(These three dancers stand out.)

Tae Gang, Hye Hyun, and Young Woong.

Those three are so good.

(Contemporary Dance Group 2's first evaluation has ended.)

These three were so good.

Tae Gang stands out a lot more than I thought.

Tae Gang is the youngest,

but he looks the most relaxed.

He's been relaxed since this morning.

He has no nerves, no anxiety.

- This... - Then just move up Tae Gang.

That's fine, right? These two were quite similar.

They were quite similar.

I actually preferred Young Woong.

Contemporary Dance Group Two's Class Movement will start.

I will announce the dancer to be promoted...

from the Second Class.

It's Kim Tae Gang.

(Kim Tae Gang is promoted to the First Class.)

I pinched my butt because I thought it was a dream.

Tae Gang is promoted to the First Class?

It was Hye Hyun's choreography,

but when we saw Tae Gang dance,

it was as if it was his choreography.

He had that energy and expression.

So we wanted to see him again in the First Class.

It was unexpected. It gave me some confidence.

With the promotion of Kim Tae Gang who was in the Second Class,

the dancer who will be demoted from the First Class...

is Kim Hye Hyun.

(Kim Hye Hyun is demoted to the Second Class.)

- Hye Hyun looks a bit flustered. - Yes.

Second Class Kim Tae Gang and First Class Kim Hye Hyun.

please move positions.

(First Class to Second Class, Kim Hye Hyun)

I got a bit flustered...

and impatient.

"I'll be doomed if I don't show myself this time."

We'll have another Class Movement Evaluation for Group Two.

Prove that you deserve...

the current class you're in.

(Exhaling)

They didn't call my name.

"This isn't enough. I should put myself out there."

(Contemporary Dance Group 2's second evaluation starts.)

(Kim Tae Gang makes a timing mistake.)

I only focused on myself. "I can do this."

(Park Jin Ho gives off a different vibe than the 1st evaluation.)

Oh, yes, Jin Ho.

I wasn't worried about making mistakes.

I just focused on dancing comfortably.

- Young Woong is really good. - Yes.

I should jump higher.

He's so cool.

I think Hye Hyun is better than Tae Gang.

- But... - They're clearly...

in First and Second each.

- But I like Jin Ho too. - Then these four...

Why don't we see Jin Ho and them dance again?

Park Jin Ho.

Kim Tae Gang.

Lee Jin Woo.

Oh Hyeok Heon. We want to see you dance too.

I think they're deciding who should be in Second and Under.

We're sure about them.

We're choosing one Second Class out of those four.

- Right? - Yes.

I thought I only had one chance,

so I should grab the chance.

I could dance according to my style,

but I might've followed Hye Hyun's style too much.

"I should go crazy and show them. Let's dance according to my style."

I totally lost it then.

Jin Ho is warming up real good.

I know how Jin Ho dances when he is desperate.

I know how his eyes look.

But he had those eyes on this stage.

"He is serious. He is desperate."

I got a bit nervous.

(Park Jin Ho gets very serious with desperation.)

I hope Jin Ho gets promoted.

(Can he grab the chance to be promoted?)

I hope they do well.

(The 3rd evaluation starts with just the selected 4.)

Gosh, it's Jin Ho.

His name tag fell.

The sticker got stuck on my foot. "This is bad."

Oh, dear. He stepped on the name tag.

Just dance.

"The name tag can't stop me."

"Move aside. I'll show you."

He's amazing.

The second dancer will be promoted to the First Class.

Jin Ho is going all out.

- Jin Ho is good. - Nice, Jin Ho.

- Goodness. - Nice.

I should give it my all.

(His feet touched his head.)

(That's impossible.)

Goodness. Who is he?

I love it.

Goodness, so beautiful.

- Why is Jin Ho so good? - Look at Jin Ho.

- I think he'll beat him. - Exactly. He...

(Park Jin Ho is stable until the end.)

I think he went harder than taking part in a competition.

- Jin Ho is amazing. - He's insane.

Bravo.

The second from the left is crazy.

- Exactly. The 2nd dancer is crazy. - The 2nd dancer is really sexy.

Jin Ho went all out.

It feels like he finally showed himself.

Yes, you're right.

I could clearly see Jin Ho trying to do this...

while using his whole body.

I felt bad for him too.

I choked up.

My in-ear came loose.

It became totally ragged.

I really gave it my all until it became like that.

Park Jin Ho.

You can't do this.

I was so shocked.

To me, you were in the First Class just now.

(He feels grateful and relieved.)

(Thank you.)

- He danced as if he was crazy. - He did.

When he must've been tired.

I think something ignited in him at the last moment.

- It was Jin Ho. Come on. - That timing, yes.

This one performance just now must've meant a lot to Jin Ho.

I think that's why they can't choose.

Jin Ho did so well just now.

I will reveal the dancers' final classes...

of Contemporary Dance Group Two.

Firstly, Under Class.

The dancers in the Under Class are...

Oh Hyeok Heon,

(Under Class of Group 2, Oh Hyeok Heon)

Lee Jin Woo,

and Lee Jeong Hoon.

Kim Tae Gang...

It'll hurt my pride if I join the Under Class.

Kim Tae Gang is demoted...

from the First Class to Under Class.

He dropped straight from First all the way to Under.

This is so cruel.

- Yes. - What a cruel class battle.

"Under Class" means I'm a dancer that backs others up.

It definitely hurt my pride.

Out of Kim Young Woong, Kim Hye Hyun, and Park Jin Ho,

only one person will join the First Class.

I will announce the first Second Class dancer.

Hye Hyun was my rival, but I thought Jin Ho was dangerous too.

I was worried about them both.

I was very nervous.

"What if I don't join the First Class again?"

"I showed them my best performance,"

"so I could be promoted to the First Class again."

The Second Class dancer is...

Kim Hye Hyun.

He got his choreography stolen.

- Poor Hye Hyun. - Only two...

I had to take a step back,

but I intend to go back to being in the First Class.

Only two dancers are left.

Kim Young Woong and Park Jin Ho. Out of the two,

who will join the First Class?

I think Park Jin Ho will join the First Class.

He dominated it.

The 1st Class dancer of Group 2...

I was very desperate.

"I might join the First Class at this rate."

I was confident.

My position won't change.

(Who out of the two will be in the First Class?)

It is Kim Young Woong.

Kim Young Woong in the First Class...

became the lead role of Contemporary Dance's Dance Film.

Congratulations.

(Kim Young Woong, the lead role of Contemporary Dance's Dance Film)

I am Kim Young Woong.

I am in the First Class.

I feel proud of myself.

I showed them Kim Young Woong's dance,

so I'm happy.

But there's a lot more left to show about my dance.

Park Jin Ho joined the Second Class.

Good job.

(Dancer Park Jin Ho is in the 2nd Class from Group 2.)

It was very disappointing.

But Young Woong put up good and stable performances...

in both Rounds 1 and 2.

In the next mission,

I should go all out from the beginning.

Since he experienced that momentary spark,

Jin Ho will get better and better.

He'll improve so much.

He got fired up.

I saw him ignite.

Dancers improve on the stage,

- not in practice rooms. - Exactly.

(The final classes of contemporary dancers)

Mnet's Stage Fighter,

Korean Dance's Class Battle,

Dance Combination Audition will start.

Korean Dance's Class Battle Group One.

Under Class Kim Min Seok,

Lee Young Woo.

Second Class Han Sang Ik.

Choi Ji Won.

Park Jun Woo.

Sung Hun Mo.

Finally, the 1st Class dancers of Group 1 will enter.

The grim reapers enter.

First Class Choi Ho Jong.

GOAT. Ho Jong the Great.

He is so cool.

First Class Kim Si Won.

Si Won looks cool.

His hair itself...

already looks like that of a master Korean dancer.

These are the 8 dancers of Group 1...

of Korean Dance's Class Battle.

- This will be fun. - This looks fun.

It looks really cool to see the two standing in the center.

- Yes. - Right?

Goodness.

Don't they look like a tiger and a lion?

- Exactly. - Exactly. They're like beasts.

This is a big match.

(When the groups were revealed)

(Kim Si Won and Choi Ho Jong are against each other in Group 1.)

(Surprised)

(They close their eyes tight.)

(This is crazy.)

(Everyone except the two is excited in the locker room.)

"This is..."

"the fight between Ho Jong and I."

"Whether I steal Ho Jong's choreography..."

"or he secures his choreography."

I thought it was a fight about that.

This is bad.

(Laughing)

But it's fun.

I wanted to be in a battle with him later.

But we got to meet a bit early.

Ho Jong. On what count do you take the first step?

Can you show me this part, please?

Come together and...

Ho Jong, this...

Ho Jong, this...

Ho Jong, after this...

Interpreting someone else's choreography in my style...

is my strong suit,

so if I show them my style of dance against Ho Jong,

I might have the chance to win.

Even if Si Won interpreted my dance...

into his unique style,

I was confident.

Even considering that.

Drop here.

Yes, nice.

I'll continue with the next part.

- Okay. - Okay.

I felt disturbed.

Si Won on my right and Ho Jong on my left.

The world is against me.

(Focused)

When I monitored the rehearsal,

I got angry at myself.

There were Ho Jong and Si Won in front of me...

who are great dancers.

It looked like I danced poorly.

It didn't just look like it. I danced poorly.

"I shouldn't dance like this later."

The protagonist always shows improvement.

If I beat...

Ho Jong and Si Won here,

I can boast about it for the next 20 years.

You don't know until you try.

"Let's show them, Si Won."

"Ho Jong or whoever it is, I can beat them all."

I choreographed it. It's my child that I gave birth to.

I'm going to join the First Class.

Until we find the right class for the dancers,

Class Movement Evaluations will continue for Class Battle.

Korean Dance's Class Battle...

starts now.

I think it'll be a battle of the three.

- This will be interesting. - I know, right?

- It will be fun to watch. - This is crazy.

They must be nervous.

First position.

Light.

Music, start.

Three, two, one. Go.

(Lee Young Woo, Choi Ji Won, Sung Hun Mo, Kim Si Won)

Very nice.

Si Won is really good.

He interpreted the choreography into his own style really well.

(The choreographer)

Kim Si Won's dance is sharp.

So good.

It's interesting.

Lee Young Woo stands out too.

Young Woo is pretty good.

He's too good to be in the Under Class.

(Choi Ho Jong, Park Jun Woo, Han Sang Ik, Kim Min Seok)

The choreographer sure is on another level.

Jun Woo's dance is very neat.

(Very focused)

- Nice! - His dance is very detailed.

Doesn't Jun Woo stand out so much?

- He stands out the most. - Yes.

- Ho Jong... - He has no presence.

Sang Ik's movements are heavy.

He can't do these movements properly.

(Korean Dance Group 1's first evaluation has ended.)

Exciting first round.

(The dancers interpreted the choreography...)

(in their own unique ways.)

They're all so good.

- They're good. - Good job.

They're good.

Can I promote Jun Woo?

It'll be nice to swap them and compare.

The promotion and demotion evaluation process...

of Korean Dance Group One will begin.

I will announce the dancer to be promoted from Second Class.

Park Jun Woo.

(Park Jun Woo is promoted to the First Class.)

I had a burst of dopamine.

Yes, he did so well this round.

The dancer that got promoted to First has a good sense of space.

With Second Class Park Jun Woo's promotion,

the dancer that will be demoted from the First Class...

Nobody expected this.

It is Choi Ho Jong.

(Everyone is surprised.)

(Shocked)

Oh, dear.

(Choi Ho Jong is demoted to the Second Class.)

It was interesting.

I was a bit flustered.

This is shocking.

Second Class Park Jun Woo...

and First Class Choi Ho Jong, change your positions...

- and move to your new class. - This is unexpected.

I didn't see this coming.

"Is this a dream or reality?"

It was a big honour for me.

He got a big one.

Ho Jong must feel bitter.

It felt like my senses became sharper.

This is fun.

Second Class Han Sang Ik...

and Under Class Kim Min Seok, change your positions...

and move to your new class.

Second Class Sung Hun Mo...

and Under Class Lee Young Woo, please move to your class positions.

We will continue the Class Movement Evaluation...

for Korean Dance Group One.

Their class could change again, right?

- That's right. - After this...

No one knows until the end.

I had to prove that I didn't get promoted by mistake.

I felt a lot of pressure.

I must go back up.

If I triumph over Ho Jong and Jun Woo and win,

it will be very interesting.

Let's take our first positions, please.

Music, start.

(Unpredictable)

(How will Korean Dance Group 1's 2nd performance turn out?)

Ho Jong looks extremely fierce.

Instead of being nervous, his heart must be fluttering.

He's dancing with intensity.

My gosh.

- He looks hip. - It looks amazing.

Now that I'm in the front, my dancing should stand out.

It's clean.

Jun Woo stands out so much. He moves well.

He's good.

He seems to stand out the most.

I should make it look stronger.

Interesting.

Dancer Kim Si Won knows his strengths clearly.

Si Won is really good.

They move with a different groove.

Ho Jong is starting.

That's it.

Nice. He's got it.

He's got it.

Exactly. You have to show the facial expression.

I love you.

- He's definitely Ho Jong the Great. - How is he so sexy?

They're enjoying it.

They each have personality in their movements.

He's so sexy.

- His facial expression is amazing. - I agree.

It was like a drama.

- That was amazing. - He's really good.

He deserves to be promoted.

He was insanely good. He'll get the First Class.

The one in blue stood out so much.

He's extremely charismatic.

Si Won is such a good dancer.

Ho Jong, do you know what I find strange?

Why didn't you show us from the beginning?

(Smiling)

As expected from the choreographer,

you showed the character...

and drama perfectly in your movements.

Jun Woo, your facial expressions and emotions seemed less...

than others when you were dancing in the center.

Si Won,

I thought that you were lacking something extra.

You did a good job.

I will announce the dancer to be promoted from the Second Class.

It must be Ho Jong.

He's taking back his position.

(As everyone predicts, will Ho Jong go back to the First Class?)

I'm sorry for keep moving you.

It's Dancer Choi Ho Jong.

(Dancer Choi Ho Jong moves from the 2nd to 1st Class.)

I knew it. This is what makes it fun.

Is he getting demoted again?

Due to Dancer Choi Ho Jong's promotion,

the dancer to be demoted from the First Class is...

Could it be Jun Woo?

It'll be either Jun Woo or...

I could get demoted again.

I didn't feel particularly worried.

The dancer to be demoted is...

I wouldn't be able to decide.

It's Dancer Kim Si Won.

Now, I'm at risk.

I survived.

He kept his position in the First Class.

Choi Ho Jong from Second and Kim Si Won from First,

- please switch places. - That's unfortunate.

Si Won should also join the Second Class at least once.

I didn't feel good about it.

Si Won must feel disappointed.

I could be in the First Class.

Will I be the first in history?

Will I become the talk of the town?

Everyone, this is your last chance.

Please show us everything that you've got.

Break a leg.

- You can do it. - Good luck.

(The last performance to determine the First Class dancer)

I should show myself as much as possible.

I'll show you from the Second Class.

I'll show you what I am.

I thought that I had to be in the First Class no matter what.

First position.

Music.

Start.

- Three, two, - Okay.

one. Go.

Look at him smiling.

- Okay. - Choi Ho Jong is having a blast.

(Choreographer Choi Ho Jong dominates the stage.)

Ho Jong is...

He's insane!

Ho Jong definitely changed...

after being in the Second Class.

I'll show you what talent is.

His facial expression changed.

(Kim Si Won is performing with richer skills.)

Nice.

- Si Won suddenly became amazing. - Right? Hasn't he changed?

What is wrong with him?

He's starting to use new skills.

- He's trying. - Yes.

We can tell that Jun Woo is younger.

Si Won has more years of experience.

Si Won gobbled him up.

Oh, no.

- Gosh. - Bravo.

That was much better.

Bravo.

That was really amazing.

(The dancers did their best in their places.)

My goodness. I might fall in love with him.

Seriously. I can't deny his skills.

You did a wonderful job.

We will announce the final classes.

Under Class dancers are...

Choi Ji Won,

Sung Hun Mo,

Lee Young Woo,

Han Sang Ik,

and Kim Min Seok.

Kim Si Won, Choi Ho Jong, and Park Jun Woo.

Among the 3 of you, the one in the 2nd Class is...

Park Jun Woo.

(Dancer Park Jun Woo is in the 2nd Class from Group 1.)

Dancer Park Jun Woo.

Good job.

- Good job, Jun Woo. - You worked hard.

(Good job.)

I lost again, but I fought well.

However, defeating Ho Jong once...

made me feel confident.

I'm satisfied.

Between Kim Si Won and Choi Ho Jong,

the First Class dancer from Group One is...

Who will be in the First Class?

Whatever the result may be, I'm ready to accept it.

I want to stay in the First Class.

It's Dancer Choi Ho Jong.

Congratulations.

(Dancer Choi Ho Jong is in the 1st Class from Group 1.)

Good job, everyone.

(As expected)

That's right. This is more natural.

You became the lead role of Korean Dance's Dance Film.

Congratulations.

(This is the best reaction he has.)

I feel so happy.

The leading role that I earned today is...

like a reward or proof...

of the hard work I put in until now.

I feel very grateful at this moment.

Dancer Kim Si Won is in the Second Class.

Great work.

(Disappointed)

I don't like placing second.

(Sad)

He definitely didn't show it in the beginning.

Ho Jong didn't dance with energy.

He changed all of a sudden.

He's special.

Korean Dance Class Battle, Group Two.

Choreographed Combination Audition will start.

The one in purple in the Second Class looks like an idol singer.

He's very handsome.

(Did he burst out laughing?)

There's something... He has the quality of a star.

Yes.

(The stage is filled with tension.)

(Watching intently)

The First Class dancers look weak.

I feel bad for the youngest dancers.

They look so nervous.

Dancers in the Second and Under Classes have a chance...

in Group Two.

I'll dominate this round.

(When the groups were revealed)

- Gosh. - Nice.

I'm jealous of Group Two.

Group Two is extremely lucky.

The choreographer isn't in it.

There are no strong dancers either.

- The youngest... - It's them.

(In Group 2, the youngest are in the 1st Class.)

Winning the First Class might be easy.

I thought that I could make it.

There aren't good dancers in the group.

(While learning the choreography)

(Dancers in Group 2 find Ho Jong's choreography too hard.)

It's confusing.

(Kim Jong Cheol is learning the choreography quickly.)

Jong Cheol is good.

Jong Cheol caught my attention.

His moves look sexy.

- He's good. - He's extremely good.

He might take away my place.

I was scared that I wouldn't be able to keep it.

I felt convinced.

What? I might be able to make it.

He didn't push himself too hard.

Sang Gil's dancing seemed unique and had its own colour.

Among everyone in the studio,

I don't think anyone danced it more interestingly than me.

I thought that Sang Gil might be able to move up.

He's too good to be in the Under Class.

I started in the Under Class, and it hurt my sense of pride.

(Korean Dance Group 2 is checking their rehearsal.)

Us in the back look weak.

You can't see us because we're behind others.

Exactly.

I realized it as soon as I saw the placement.

Due to the other dancers in the front,

I might dance in the shadow.

I have to move up no matter what.

I'm in the lowest class possible.

I must join the First Class.

(Gulping)

Group Two dancers,

please do your best and join the class of your choice.

I should join the First Class.

What I do best is...

enjoying the dance and performing onstage.

I already feel...

anxiety from this group.

Korean Dance Class Battle will start...

for Group Two.

First position.

Light.

Music, start.

Let's get it.

Gosh, this will be fun.

Five, four,

- three, two, - Let's go.

- one. Go. - Let's go.

(Kim Min Suk, Choi Jong In Kim In Su, Kim Sang Gil)

Sang Gil changed the emphasis.

That's crazy.

Kim Sang Gil is much better than the First Class dancer.

He's very charming.

(Shin Doung Woo, Kang Seong Bae Kim Jong Cheol, Cho Tae Yoon)

He's good.

All right. Tae Yoon is good.

First Dancer in black is good.

First Dancer in black is good.

Nice.

- He looks very sexy. - He's bewitching.

They're really good.

(Korean Dance Group 2's 1st performance is over.)

- It gave me goosebumps. - Gosh, they're good.

His lingering movement.

(His lingering movement was great.)

Jong Cheol is definitely good at making sexy movements.

- Tae Yoon is good. - Yes, he did a good job.

Everyone did well. No one was bad.

Wasn't Min Suk less competitive?

- It looked very weak. - Exactly.

- He should get promoted. - You think so?

- He has to get promoted. - I love him.

He's so sexy.

I loved it.

Dancer Kim Sang Gil and...

He can stay.

Or should we switch these two?

- It sounds good. - Yes, like this.

The promotion and demotion evaluation process...

of Korean Dance Group Two will begin.

How will they move the dancers in this group?

The dancer demoted in the Second Class is...

Dancer Choi Jong In.

(Dancer Choi Jong In is demoted to the Under Class.)

I wasn't sure if your dancing fit...

Choi Ho Jong's choreography.

I need to see how you dance a little more.

The dancer promoted from the Under Class is...

Dancer Kim Sang Gil.

I felt that...

Dancer Kim Sang Gil enjoyed dancing a lot.

He tried hard to show himself.

I found it very meaningful.

You were amazing.

Second Class Dancer Choi Jong In...

and Under Class Dancer Kim Sang Gil,

please move positions.

This is good. I just need to move up slowly.

I should be more energetic and nail the next performance.

I will announce the dancer to be promoted from the Second Class.

It's Dancer Kim Jong Cheol.

(Kim Jong Cheol is promoted to the First Class.)

Jong Cheol did well.

The dancer demoted from the First Class is...

Kim Min Suk.

(Kim Jong Cheol and Kim Min Suk switch places.)

It's only beginning now. Don't let it go.

We will continue...

the Class Movement Evaluation for Korean Dance Group Two.

Prove to us again...

that you're in the class that's appropriate for you.

The First Class dancer is me. This is where I'll show them.

I have to go up to the First Class no matter what.

First position.

Music.

Start.

Finally, I'm in a place where they can see me.

Let's show them more of my personality in my dance.

(Korean Dance Group 2's 2nd performance starts.)

He's good.

His lines are beautiful.

The one in purple is really good.

- Kim Sang Gil is good. - Yes, he's good.

He's better now that he's promoted.

He turned it into his dance. Look at that.

(Kim Sang Gil shows off his own style.)

The one who was in the Under Class is good.

I love that guy in white.

- Nice. Yes, that guy. - He was...

- amazing. - He was in the Under Class.

- Amazing. - His lines are clean.

(You can watch the dancers' full performances on The CHOOM.)

- The one in white is good. - He got promoted for a reason.

I didn't know Kim Sang Gil danced that well.

Isn't he good?

I was very impressed by Sang Gil.

That was really good.

- Can he be in the First Class? - I agree.

- We both thought so. - Me too.

He's in the Second Class, so we will...

(Staring)

Let's move up.

Here's why I like him. It's because...

he's trying to prove himself.

I can feel that he's trying to move up the rank.

Let's switch Kim Sang Gil and Cho Tae Yoon.

Okay, that sounds good.

After that, we should watch these two.

- Let's watch him and Jong Cheol. - I agree.

Let's go.

Just one more step.

I will announce...

the dancer to be promoted from the Second Class...

from Korean Dance Group Two.

(Gulping)

It's Dancer Kim Sang Gil.

(Kim Sang Gil is promoted to the First Class.)

As Kim Sang Gil got promoted from the Second Class,

which dancer...

will be demoted from the First Class?

It's Dancer Cho Tae Yoon.

Second Class Kim Sang Gil...

and First Class Cho Tae Yoon.

Please move positions.

- Did he move up from Under Class? - From Under to First Class.

Gosh, he moved up two classes.

- Dancer Kim Sang Gil. - Yes?

Could you please look at where you were standing?

(The Under Class position at the rear of the stage)

It felt very emotional.

I fell asleep while listening to the song.

I also listened to it in my shower.

Those moments flashed before my eyes.

It felt like I was writing an epic.

How far did you get?

(Pleased)

- I moved up a little. - How do you feel?

I'm not satisfied yet.

- Because it isn't confirmed? - Right.

Are you confident?

Yes, I am.

- I look forward to it. - Okay.

You can do it.

If he makes it to the First Class, it'll be dramatic.

You have one last chance.

You'll have to prove yourself now.

Please prove yourselves once again.

This position has always been mine.

I always belonged here.

Now, I must show them my everything.

Gosh, I'm at risk.

I felt like I was getting behind.

Will Sang Gil beat me as well?

Will he be able to stay in the First Class?

Let's go.

First position.

Music, start.

Kim Sang Gil also changed the first position.

He's the only one starting differently.

Let's make the performance fun without leaving regrets.

I'll gobble them up.

(Look how relaxed he is.)

(The last evaluation for Korean Dance Group 3)

(The Under Class rebellion)

(How will Kim Sang Gil perform?)

First position.

Music, start.

Kim Sang Gil also changed the first position.

He's the only one starting differently.

Let's make the performance fun without leaving regrets.

I'll gobble them up.

(Look how relaxed he is.)

(The last evaluation for Korean Dance Group 3 starts.)

- He's good. - He changed the emphasis.

He's good.

(They're getting absorbed in it.)

- He's good. - It's like a concert.

I can only see him.

Hey, go.

He looks amazing.

Hey, go.

He nailed it.

(Shuddering)

I can see why he's in the First Class.

- This is fun. - He deserves to be in First Class.

(Exclaiming)

(That was incredible.)

(Kim Sang Gil's fancy finale pose)

(Blowing)

- That was insane. - He's really good.

It gave me goosebumps.

Why was he ever in the Under Class?

- That was great showmanship. - He can't do that, can he?

He changed the choreography.

I didn't follow the choreography at all.

(From the starting pose to movement details)

The audience would have fun only when I'm having fun.

The judges would also have fun.

Even if I dance differently from others,

I wanted to show what I wanted.

Is it okay to change the choreography?

I think he just enjoyed himself.

He did, but it was outside the bounds.

- He should take responsibility. - Right.

He's holding a double-edged sword. What will the judges think?

I will reveal the dancers' final classes of Group Two.

(Korean Dance Group 2's final classes are revealed.)

Dancers in the Under Class are...

Shin Doung Woo, Kang Seong Bae, Kim In Su,

Choi Jong In, and Kim Min Suk. Five people in total.

(Shin Doung Woo, Kang Seong Bae, Kim In Su, Choi Jon In, Kim Min Suk)

Kim Sang Gil, Cho Tae Yoon, and Kim Jong Cheol.

Among the 3 of you, the dancer in the 2nd Class is...

Cho Tae Yoon.

Cho Tae Yoon has been demoted from the First Class...

to the Second Class.

(Demoted from 1st to 2nd Class)

Only two dancers remain.

Dancers Kim Sang Gil and Kim Jong Cheol.

The 1st Class dancer from Group 2 is...

It's impossible not to want it.

I hope that I'll be at the top.

Sang Gil was competing against me,

so I felt anxious.

Who will it be? Jong Cheol or Sang Gil?

(Which one will be the final First Class dancer?)

It's Kim Jong Cheol.

(Dancer Kim Jong Cheol is in the 1st Class from Group 2.)

(Relieved)

Good job!

Anyone can change the choreography...

to adjust it to their liking.

But I believe that you should respect the basics.

You should express your personality...

while following the original choreography.

I think we should point that out.

He was being too greedy.

Dancer Kim Jong Cheol will be...

the lead dancer in Korean Dance Film.

(Kim Jong Cheol became the lead dancer in Korean Dance Film.)

I see the star quality in you.

I would just like to see and feel that you feel...

that you have the star quality as well.

So I need to feel your confidence.

Dancer Kim Sang Gil is in the Second Class.

You were amazing.

He still got promoted from the Under Class.

(The dancers receive armbands according to their class.)

I got the lead role.

It made me feel so good.

Why did you do that, Sang Gil?

Why did I do that?

I feel so disappointed.

Under Class Sang Gil is gone.

Now, I'm in Second Class.

See you again when I'm in First Class.

Who will be the one and only dancer...

that makes it to the First Class by proving himself?

Korean Dance Group Three will start.

Gosh, I know him.

For competitions, he learned choreography from Choi Ho Jung.

- I think so too. - He probably knows...

Choi Ho Jung's style inside and out.

From high school to my senior year in college,

he's been my teacher in competitions.

It's Ho Jong's choreography.

My dancing style is the most similar to his,

so I feel confident.

I was keeping Kyu Nyeon in check.

I must do better than him and win.

I practised much more than usual.

(Kim Hyo Joon practices hard until the end backstage.)

(Looking around)

My sleeve got torn.

I tried too hard to defeat you.

I wasn't worried about you at all.

- That's why you'll lose today. - Let's see.

I found it strange that neither Kyu Nyeon nor Hyo Joon...

was keeping me in check.

I'm also in this group.

It hurt my sense of pride so much.

My priority was making up for the first audition...

where I performed poorly.

(During the Korean Dance Physical and Technique Audition)

Goodness.

(Ki Moo Gan joined the Second Class for making mistakes.)

I should show...

what others expect of me.

I must move up to First Class.

It would be very interesting if he did well.

It's hard to predict what Moo Gan will show when he's determined.

That's why I can't wait to see him.

First position.

Music, start.

Three, two, one. Go.

(Korean Dance Group 3 Class Battle starts.)

(First: Kim Hyo Joon, Second: Park Cheol Woo, Ki Moo Gan)

(Under: Kim Min Su)

Nice.

Hyo Joon is good.

(That's it.)

Gosh, Moo Gan.

Isn't he great?

Didn't he get better?

His dance has a decadent charm.

(Full of decadent charms)

Moo Gan was good.

(Under: Jang Sung Bum, Second: Baek Sang Ha, Bang Seong Hyun)

(First: Kim Kyu Nyeon)

The one in white is good.

That looks amazing.

He dances so tastefully.

(His teacher feels proud of him.)

He's not bad.

Kyu Nyeon's dance looks too light.

(You can watch the dancers' full performances on The CHOOM.)

(Perfect ending)

The last pose is nice.

I can't tell who will win.

(Korean Dance Group 3's 1st performance is over.)

I saw some potential.

- Moo Gan did better than I thought. - Really?

(Calm)

- His dancing was weak. - I agree.

Compared to him, Moo Gan danced better.

- He didn't catch my attention. - Mine either.

During the second half,

he was a little...

He should be demoted.

Korean Dance Group Three.

Promotion and demotion evaluation process will begin.

Won't it be Moo Gan?

The dancer promoted in the Second Class.

(Which Second Class dancer will get promoted?)

It's Dancer Ki Moo Gan.

(He made it.)

That's insane.

Due to Ki Moo Gan's promotion from the Second Class,

which dancer from the First Class...

will be demoted?

Who will it be?

How did I do? Did I do well?

Something felt off.

The dancer demoted in the First Class is...

Kim Kyu Nyeon.

Goodness.

He can be promoted again.

Second Class Ki Moo Gan and First Class Kim Kyu Nyeon,

please move positions.

Ki Moo Gan, how do you feel about your position now?

It feels like I've found my place.

(Controlling himself)

(Everyone is shocked.)

It feels like you've found your place?

- Yes. - Then will you do much better...

from now on?

I will have to do better.

Yes, we look forward to it.

As expected, he's very unusual.

I got used to it now.

Korean Dance Group Three's Class Movement Evaluations...

will continue without further change.

(Expecting a lot of fun)

"Without further change?"

We'll take a look one more time.

I felt very relieved.

It was a bummer.

Let's take our first position.

I had to move back up.

"Let's make up for it today."

That's all I thought about.

Music, start.

Three, two, one. Go.

He's good.

He's smiling.

I just got goosebumps.

Nice dancer.

- Kyu Nyeon changed. - He did.

Go, Kyu Nyeon.

Hyo Joon's lines are upright.

- He's calm. - He's good.

(He loves it.)

(What was that facial expression?)

Cheol Woo did a good job.

(You can watch the dancers' full performances on The CHOOM.)

The last pose is amazing.

(Korean Dance Group 3's 2nd performance is over.)

Moo Gan nailed it.

Kyu Nyeon danced with determination.

This is difficult.

Didn't he stand out as well?

- Cheol Woo? - He has good energy.

(Park Cheol Woo showed explosive energy.)

They must have practised a lot.

It's so hard to decide for this group.

(Closing his eyes tightly)

- Matthew keeps talking about him. - Yes.

- Kim Hyo Joon? - He's very trustworthy.

Yes.

His lines are clean, but...

- His dancing is generic. - It doesn't change much.

(Kim Hyo Joon showed the standard choreography in every round.)

It's neck-and-neck.

Shall we take another look?

- Let's just watch the four. - That sounds good.

(Her judge mode is on.)

We'd like to take another look.

(Surprised)

- We'll watch only these four. - Gosh.

Ki Moo Gan, Kim Hyo Joon,

Park Cheol Woo, and Kim Kyu Nyeon will dance again.

Am I not showing them enough right now?

I had gotten my hopes up, but...

This is where the final decision will be made.

I could even aim for First Class if I'm lucky.

The rest of you, Jang Sung Bum, Baek Sang Ha,

Bang Seong Hyun, and Kim Min Su are Under Class.

Hey, then one of these guys is an Under Class.

(1 of these 4 will become an Under Class.)

Kim Hyo Joon didn't falter at all.

It's great that you've maintained the same level until now,

but you don't have that big punch.

I wish you could have some spice to your dance.

Yes, please.

- Please. - Among these four unique dancers,

we'd like to see one big charming punch from you.

I could lose my First Class.

What do I do?

If I slip up, I could go to Under Class.

It's time I show them.

Let's hang in there just once more until the end.

I have to go up to First Class, no matter what.

Music,

start.

Three, two, one.

Go.

(Korean Dance Class Battle)

(This is it.)

I love Moo Gan's gestures.

(Giggling)

That's awesome. You saw how much he controlled the dynamics, right?

Nice and neat.

I like Park Cheol Woo's facial expressions.

(Korean Dance Group 3's final evaluation performance ends.)

(You can watch the dancers' full performances on The CHOOM.)

They're all so good.

(The final 4 performed in their own style.)

That was entertaining.

That's awesome.

He changed his direction to moving slightly differently to the beat.

He elongated the beat.

(Kim Hyo Joon drew people's attention...)

(by controlling the dynamics perfectly.)

That had a good effect.

Hyo Joon wasn't that bad.

I think Ki Moo Gan was...

He has great talent and all that.

And in Hyo Joon's case, he doesn't falter.

I think he could be a stable lead in a performance.

- He is very stable. - He is.

And Kim Kyu Nyeon...

isn't someone who should have gone down to Second Class.

- That's why I'm like... - It's confusing.

They're so serious.

I don't know who will become First Class in this group.

We will now reveal the final classes.

Firstly, among Ki Moo Gan, Park Cheol Woo

Kim Kyu Nyeon, and Kim Hyo Joon,

who will become the Under Class dancer?

It's Dancer Park Cheol Woo. Good job.

(Disappointed)

(You worked so hard.)

(You did well.)

Next, among the three dancers, Ki Moo Gan, Kim Hyo Joon,

and Kim Kyu Nyeon, 1 will become 1st Class,

and 2 will become 2nd Class.

I'm confident I can become 1st out of the 3.

I can't become Second.

Please.

We'll reveal the dancer who has been confirmed as Second Class.

Hyo Joon?

I don't know.

(Who will be 2nd Class among these 3?)

(Group 3's results are hard to predict.)

It's Dancer Kim Kyu Nyeon.

(Dancer Kim Kyu Nyeon is confirmed as 2nd Class from Group 3.)

(The Korean dancers applaud Kim Kyu Nyeon who did his best.)

Dancer Kim Kyu Nyeon has been...

demoted from 1st to 2nd Class.

I thought, "I'm still lacking in many ways."

Still...

I lost but did my best.

The remaining two. Between Ki Moo Gan and Kim Hyo Joon...

(There can only be 1 who gets 1st Class.)

The 1st Class dancer from Korean Dance Group 3 is...

I think Moo Gan will be First.

I think Hyo Joon could be First.

Which dancer will become First Class?

I'm looking forward to becoming First Class.

(All-rounder Kim Hyo Joon showed stable talent...)

(and excellent expression.)

Let's get back to becoming First Class.

(Ki Moo Gan drew people's attention with his unique charm and aura.)

The First Class dancer is...

(Who will take the top spot in the fierce Class Battle?)

Who will it be?

It's Dancer Ki Moo Gan.

(Dancer Ki Moo Gan is confirmed as Group 3's 1st Class.)

Oh, my!

(A round of applause)

Indeed, Moo Gan was a strong contender.

(Everyone applauds the dancers who showed an impressive competition.)

(Choking up)

Dancer Kim Hyo Joon has been demoted to Second Class.

I felt a mix of emotions,

but I thought I should do better next time.

I'm relieved because I think I did well by getting back to First Class.

No matter what I end up doing,

I have to do well now.

Because now, I have to make people believe this.

I'll get my head on straight.

(Korean Dance Final Classes)

(Taking place at a huge palace)

(It's the shoot of the Korean Dance Film.)

(It's raining so much.)

(They face obstacles from the beginning.)

(Running away)

(The scene of the shoot seems to be a ritual for rain.)

(And the main lead role even makes a mistake.)

(Goodness)

(Doubting his eyes)

(The Dance Film for Korean dance is in crisis.)

(How will it turn out?)

(Stage Fighter)

(The next day, STF Dance Studio)

(The ballerinos' classes have been changed after the Class Battle.)

(Jung Sung Wook was promoted from 2nd to 1st.)

(Shin Min Kwon and Kim Yu Chan were demoted from 1st to 2nd.)

(Kim Tae Seok was demoted from First to Under.)

How do you feel? Tell us what it feels like to be a First.

I feel shy.

Honestly, it felt good.

I think it shined more.

There's really no safety net for when you come down.

I feel totally awful.

- Yu Chan, - Yes?

- how do you feel? - I just let him have my spot once.

You let him have your spot?

(Feeling uncomfortable)

I took the First Class in the end. It's mine.

(The practice room is silent except for the sound of breathing.)

(Dancers Kim Jong Cheol and Ki Moo Gan were promoted to First Class.)

(Dancer Choi Ho Jong kept his First Class position.)

Aren't we being too quiet?

Actually, the atmosphere felt very heavy.

I felt rather anxious.

The concept of classes felt painful to me.

(Contemporary dance had the most changes in First Class.)

(Dancers Jung Hye Seong and Kim Hyun Ho were promoted to First.)

(Dancers Yang Seong Yun, Go Dong Hoon, and Jang June Hyuk...)

(were demoted from First to Under Class.)

Just wait and see what happens if the 1st and 2nd Classes do badly.

I'll come at you with my fangs.

My life is at the bottom anyway.

I can just start over now.

I should become the First of the Firsts now.

What's this?

(What is it, all of a sudden?)

Hello, I'm Kang Daniel, the MC of Stage Fighter.

Through the Class Battle,

your classes have been decided.

However, even if you have the same roles in the same performance,

not everyone can have the same screen time or level of importance.

Oh, my gosh.

There isn't a single moment of rest.

Some lead roles become main lead roles,

the position where they can get the most attention.

And some lead roles will become...

sub lead roles who support the main lead roles.

They're dividing the Firsts again.

They're dividing us again.

Darn it. What do we do?

I thought that it would obviously be hard for three lead roles...

to have the same level of importance.

And there are main supporting roles...

and sub supporting roles to support them.

This is a war.

I fought hard to get this Second Class position.

It's another competition. An endless competition.

Now, we'll reveal the casting board for the Korean Dance Film.

(The King's Wish: Reign of Peace)

(In a world without worries, the king calls the spirits...)

(of past kings for a peaceful nation.)

(A reverent rite is held along with a performance.)

The choreographer...

Choi Ho Jong.

(Lead roles, Supporting roles, Ensemble)

There's a King?

You should become the King.

I'd love to get that role.

It's either me or him. Ho Jong.

As long as I don't make mistakes, I'm confident I can get it.

Hey, for the supporting roles,

there are only two main supporting roles. Everyone else is a sub.

- Really? - Yes.

So we have to get the main roles. Even more so for supporting roles.

I thought I must get the main supporting role, no matter what.

The 3 lead dancers will choose the 2 supporting dancers they want.

You will audition together.

A supporting dancer may be chosen multiple times by lead dancers.

You have as many chances to audition as you were chosen.

The lead dancers can choose the supporting dancers.

So, we have to be chosen by the lead dancers?

- Then, we get to audition? - Right.

(The lead dancers choose...)

(two supporting dancers to audition with.)

(The people who will be auditioning with me are...)

(The supporting roles)

(I will audition with this dancer.)

(It hurt my pride.)

If I'm a supporting dancer and get zero votes, I might go crazy.

It will be very important to be chosen by someone.

Still, wouldn't at least one person choose me?

Here is how the audition will go for the main lead roles.

(I will have 3 loyal vassals.)

(The lead dancer decides on the formation of the ensemble.)

(There is no audition for the ensemble.)

(Please do your best to practice for the main lead role's audition.)

That breaks my heart.

I felt that not even having a chance to audition...

was the role of the ensemble.

The different treatment for each class?

That's so harsh.

(The Under Class doesn't even get a chance to audition.)

I didn't become a First.

I should get the best part here at least.

I just thought that I should do my best.

(The First Class is fighting over the main lead role.)

(The 2nd Class needs to be chosen by the 1st Class...)

(to get the main supporting role.)

(How will the Casting Audition go for the Korean Dance Film?)

(Korean Dance Film 1st Class, lead role practice room)

(Lead role practice room)

(The 3 main lead role candidates gather together...)

(after the Casting Audition's reveal.)

The only person who's on my radar is Ho Jong.

It's either me or him for the main lead role.

I'm hoping it will be me.

(Choi Ho Jong begins forming the ensemble's movement first.)

I will have three loyal vassals.

Simple is best.

I'm confident about coming up with movements for a choreography.

(Meanwhile, Kim Jong Cheol keeps contemplating it.)

Gosh, how should I do this?

Like this?

The mission where we had to change the movements...

in the scene with 15 ensemble members...

made me feel really pressured.

I think you should do better in forming the ensemble's choreography.

Moo Gan and Ho Jong have experience in choreographing.

So, I think you should think about that more.

I've never handled this many people before,

and I don't have experience in choreographing.

All I could think was, "What will I do?"

(Kim Jong Cheol)

All right, guys.

This, and here.

Come back, and go down like this.

How far does the right hand go up?

- Let's go as high as the temple. - The temple.

Go to the temple.

(The first main lead role candidate, Choi Ho Jong, appears.)

- Hey. - Hey.

Come on.

The lead role.

(Nervous)

I just want to make things simple.

At first, I want to start in a V formation.

And there is one formation change.

So, you will stand in two parallel lines like this.

The three of you here...

are the tallest, I believe. So, I took you out.

- How tall are you? - I'm 194cm.

(In disbelief)

I will go back and forth,

and we'll keep this formation.

I will make contact with each of you.

This formation will let me enjoy the entire space.

That's it for formation changes. It's so easy, right?

(They totally understand.)

- That's good. - Nice.

It was very effective.

The formation was exactly for the King.

It's simple, but the formation was symbolic

You can use both hands too.

I thought he had lots of experience in teaching.

Don't loosen up too much.

I think it would be great if we were in sync.

Please have a seat.

I think he's a choreographer who's calm and considerate.

That's so nicely in sync.

(Perfectly in sync)

(Nice!)

That's it!

- Good work, everyone. - Good work!

(Main lead candidate Choi Ho Jong is done teaching his formation.)

That was impressive.

Since this is a group dance,

it would be best to refrain from being too unique.

I'm afraid of the next people. How will they do things?

(The second main lead role candidate, Ki Moo Gan, appears.)

(Gulping)

That formation looks complicated.

Did Ho Jong have a lot of stuff for his formation?

- It was pretty simple, right? - Yes.

(Grinning)

First of all,

I'll be in the middle, and you'll be along the same line...

as me.

It's a charging formation.

There will only be one formation change.

They'll come out a little bit here.

(The formation will change so that the hidden dancers move a little.)

To become like this.

- It's not that complicated, right? - Is that it?

Yes.

A round of applause for now.

(The ensemble is satisfied with the simple formation.)

It would allow everyone to be seen as much as possible.

I liked it because the formation spread out...

so no one would feel disappointed.

It will let everyone be seen.

We're all the lead roles.

This would look really cool.

(His gaze suddenly changes.)

(Ki Moo Gan checks the dance after putting people in place.)

(Tilting his head)

- Don't go out too much. - Oh, okay.

Think of it as your chest...

- overlapping with his. - Oh, just the chest.

- I think that's the gap I want. - Okay.

- You're on the same line. - Oh, okay.

In a triangle, like this.

I think Moo Gan is the type who makes his demands clearly.

We could feel the details coming together ourselves.

- You must do well on the outside. - Yes, okay.

- You must do well here. - Okay.

Moo Gan seems to fit the role of the King.

He seems like either Yeonsangun or Gwanghaegun.

I think everyone tried a little harder...

to make Moo Gan stand out.

(The second candidate, Ki Moo Gan, is done teaching his formation.)

You can do it.

Both Ho Jong and Moo Gan...

handled the King's character well with their own unique points.

- Hello. - Here's our youngest lead dancer.

Why does he have two boards?

I feel like this will be the toughest.

The youngest lead dancer has some spirit.

We'll start with this formation here...

and do the chorus in straight lines like this.

I think I'll have to see the size.

Why doesn't it feel like a circle?

- How about we do 1.5 spaces here? - Or...

- Should we move apart? - In a round shape...

You can get into a straight line here.

- So we kick and go in? - It's like...

I think it'll work if you bow as much as you can...

and twist like this.

(They try it as he explained.)

Oh, but that's tough.

He should've made his directions clear since we were changing big.

"We're going this way, but how do we get there?"

"I'm not sure about the movement." Since that thought kept coming up,

I felt like he hadn't prepared that much.

One more time. I'm really sorry.

Due to my inexperience,

I feel like the teaching didn't go well.

I was really worried.

(Will Kim Jong Cheol's group performance be okay?)

(Korean Dance Film 2nd Class, Supporting role practice room)

(Meanwhile, the 6 main supporting role candidates practice the dance.)

Is it winding?

Darn it. This is confusing.

So it went like this?

It was actually very tough. It was really hard, but...

(They must memorize both the right and left choreographies.)

We have to memorize both sides. That's hard.

It's tough.

- I'm in big trouble. - This isn't easy.

(Most are struggling to learn the choreography.)

(But Park Jun Woo continues with the dance without hesitation.)

There weren't many hard moves.

It'll just be a matter of memorizing.

It'll just be a battle of focus.

Jun Woo, is this arm movement right? This hand is here, right? Or this?

- I think it's like this. - Okay.

Jun Woo learned the order...

pretty quickly and executed it.

Oh, I should learn this.

- Keep practising with me. - Okay.

- One, two, three... - Seven, eight.

(The dance practice centers around Park Jun Woo.)

Seriously, why did they make it so complicated?

Go up.

What was after that?

As I watched people during practice,

I became really wary of Jun Woo.

I thought I had a chance...

to become the main supporting role.

Well, I didn't become a First.

I should get the best part here, at least.

(The first candidate, Jong Cheol, came to pick supporting dancers.)

- The First is here! - He's here already? Hang on.

You're all sweating so much.

(Sweating profusely)

I must be chosen by the lead dancers...

to have a shot at being the main supporting dancer.

I was so nervous.

I'll watch you in pairs.

The first pair is...

Hyo Joon and Jun Woo.

The second is Sang Gil and Kyu Nyeon.

And Si Won and Tae Yoon will be the last.

Good luck.

- Incredible supporting dancers. - I feel good right now.

Hyo Joon is a pro,

and I thought we could have a synergistic effect.

(The first pair is Kim Hyo Joon and Park Jun Woo.)

(Jun Woo's foot bumped into Hyo Joon's hand.)

(Startled)

That really put me off,

and I think I finished the rest of the dance in a daze.

(I see.)

Are you okay?

(Kim Jong Cheol has an unsure look on his face.)

(Feeling disappointed)

It's okay.

(The next pair is Kim Kyu Nyeon and Kim Sang Gil.)

- Feel the vibe. - Okay.

(Staring)

(Perfectly in sync)

(Impressed)

You were so perfectly in sync.

It was an honour.

(Forcing a smile)

(Kim Jong Cheol contemplates for quite a while.)

You can keep switching pairs and making us dance.

(Keep pairing us up differently.)

For now, I'd like to see Hyo Joon and Kyu Nyeon.

I want to see you two as a pair.

- Good luck for now. - Good luck.

- Let's do well together. - Yes.

(Kim Hyo Joon and Kim Kyu Nyeon dance as a pair next.)

(Kim Hyo Joon avoids his foot and just lies down.)

(Impressed)

- That was good. - They did so well just now.

They were so synchronized.

The two Seconds who will be auditioning with me are...

(Who will it be?)

I'll audition with Hyo Joon and Kyu Nyeon.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Let's practice a lot together.

We've got this. I'll show you.

(Nodding)

Let's practice.

I'll do everything I can.

I made a mistake, so I felt really disappointed.

I should get the part next time, no matter what.

(The second main lead role candidate Choi Ho Jong)

- We meet again. - This is insane.

Rather than synchronicity,

I'll look for uniqueness.

Let's show him.

I was waiting for Ho Jong's turn, and I was confident.

A pair with Sang Gil and Kyu Nyeon.

And Jun Woo and Si Won. I'll see these two pairs for now.

(First, it's Park Jun Woo and Kim Si Won.)

(Next, it's Kim Sang Gil and Kim Kyu Nyeon.)

- Let's do it together. - Okay.

Let's start.

(Glancing)

(A bright smile?)

They were unstable.

(Kim Sang Gil and Kim Kyu Nyeon's pair choreography ends.)

Good job.

Sang Gil's pretty good.

Those who will join the audition with me are...

Kim Sang Gil and Kim Kyu Nyeon.

(Choosing Kim Sang Gil and Kim Kyu Nyeon)

Should I say I felt rather restless?

What if I don't get chosen?

That was so much fun.

It was fun? I felt like dying.

Because you were chosen many times.

It's hard to do it even once.

It hurt my pride since then.

I'll have to do my best.

(The last lead role candidate, Ki Moo Gan, appears.)

- Hello. - Hello.

How is it?

It's tiring.

(Tense)

Si Won and Hyo Joon should pair up.

Let me try between you two.

- Okay. - I haven't tried it yet, so...

(Ki Moo Gan practices with Kim Si Won and Kim Hyo Joon.)

Here.

(Turning)

(Did he like it?)

I think it's okay.

I think we should go this way.

(Glancing)

It's a relief.

What do you mean?

It's not easy to do both.

Did you get selected once?

- Twice. Yes. - Twice?

- Is Kyu Nyeon good? - He's good.

It hurt my pride so much.

I couldn't hide it.

He'd select you.

He has faith in you.

Wait.

Let me try it with Jun Woo and Kyu Nyeon.

This is my last chance.

I must do my best.

(Ki Moo Gan practices with Park Jun Woo and Kim Kyu Nyeon.)

- That combination isn't so bad. - No.

It's a good combination.

- Jun Woo is stable. - Yes.

I've thought about it a lot.

I choose...

Kim Si Won as Chief State Councillor...

and Kim Hyo Joon as Left State Councillor.

(Bummed out)

I'll be the kingmaker.

Honestly, I was upset.

It was a shame.

Well done. You did great.

- How can I get zero votes? - It's cruel.

You'll be dehydrated. You're sweating so much.

I know.

We should try it together.

- Do you want to? - Yes.

Wait. Okay.

Sure. Let's do it.

I'll redeem myself in the audition later.

I was waiting for the moment.

Let's do it.

(Park Jun Woo practices with his all.)

It's not that I might have a chance.

I must do it.

I will slam into everyone.

I'll beat them all.

(How will Park Jun Woo do in the audition?)

(Kim Jae Seung and Jung Bo Kyung are here for the lead role audition.)

(Welcome.)

I was more nervous than usual.

I'm a Korean Dance Film Choreographer Kim Jae Seung.

(A Korean dance coach and a Dance Film choreographer,)

(Kim Jae Seung)

The lead role, King,

is the one who governs the country.

He's powerful and charismatic.

The King. I can play that.

I feel confident.

Of course, I want to play the King.

Chief State Councillor and Left State Councillor...

are intelligent, powerful, and energetic.

Although I didn't make it in First, I have to pull it off here.

I've been demoted already.

But being demoted to the supporting role?

I can never imagine that.

Now, we will begin the Casting Audition.

(Korean Dance Main Supporting Role Casting Audition)

The supporting role candidates who danced with Choi Ho Jong.

Please come forward.

(Ho Jong, the lead role, Kyu Nyeon and Sang Gil in supporting roles)

First position.

Music, start.

(The Main Supporting Role Casting Audition finally begins.)

(Focused)

They're very calm.

Their teamwork wasn't so bad.

(Scanning quickly)

(Kim Kyu Nyeon and Kim Sang Gil's pair choreography ends.)

(Applauding)

- They were calm. - They were very calm.

But the judges wouldn't like that.

They said they wanted to see energy.

Was I too loose?

Still, I did a good job.

- Kim Sang Gil has a limit. - He has a limit.

Kyu Nyeon is too weak.

It was comfortable to watch,

but what we needed was tension from tight choreography.

It was a bummer.

(Kyu Nyeon and Sang Gil received a disappointing comment.)

I feel confident.

I thought I should show my energy...

and get more chances.

Because I got selected twice...

I decided to take this chance to prove myself.

(Kim Jong Cheol in the lead role,)

(and Kim Kyu Nyeon and Kim Hyo Joon in supporting roles)

One. Go.

Nice energy.

(Exclaiming)

(They're good.)

I have to say they are good.

(That's right!)

(Kim Kyu Nyeon and Kim Hyo Joon's pair choreography ends.)

(Good job!)

They showed what the judges wanted.

Kim Hyo Joon was very close to it.

- Yes. He's always accurate. - So...

I'm doing great.

I think I have a chance.

We should use a lot of space...

as if we're close.

(Ki Moo Gan in the lead role,)

(and Kim Si Won and Kim Hyo Joon in supporting roles)

Charisma.

I can see that he's manly.

- I can't wait. - This will be fun to watch.

(Amazed)

I'm getting the chills.

Okay. Nice.

(They're cool.)

(Kim Si Won and Kim Hyo Joon overwhelms the audience...)

(with perfect teamwork.)

(Kim Si Won and Kim Hyo Joon's pair choreography ends.)

(Applauding)

(Proud)

That was really cool.

Since I'll be playing a supporting role,

I focused on my role.

I thought it should be someone held in check yet obedient.

I danced as if I was glaring at the King when I was behind him,

but tried to look down when I was in front of him.

(Exclaiming)

You're right about your analysis.

Your presentation was the best.

Oh, nice.

I might get the main supporting role.

There are dancers we haven't seen yet.

Let's see Park Jun Woo and Cho Tae Yoon.

Kim Sang Gil and Cho Tae Yoon.

Park Jun Woo with Kim Kyu Nyeon.

(Choi Ho Jong in the lead role,)

(and Cho Tae Yoon and Kim Sang Gil in supporting roles)

He's not energetic at all.

(After bumping into Choi Ho Jong, Cho Tae Yoon had a sloppy finish.)

After you bumped into Choi Ho Jong,

you lost the rhythm.

You should've hidden it as a dancer.

We're ready.

(Park Jun Woo is waiting for his audition.)

To be honest, I was embarrassed the whole time I was there.

It hurt my pride so much.

(Park Jun Woo only watched others' auditions.)

Still, I might get a chance for an additional audition.

(Park Jun Woo kept practising in the back for his chance.)

I must seize my last chance.

All I have to do is focus on my job.

I will slam into everyone.

Two, one. Go.

(Park Jun Woo and Kim Kyu Nyeon in supporting roles)

(Exclaiming)

Nice.

They have perfect teamwork.

(Glaring)

(Perfect teamwork)

(The three put on crazy teamwork as if they were a team.)

(They nailed it.)

Oh, this is...

Jun Woo was amazing.

He suddenly became a rival.

I redeemed myself.

They gave me my last chance,

and I seized it.

Park Jun Woo.

Jun Woo did what Jun Woo was good at.

You showed that you'd eat them up.

I loved that tension.

Why do you think...

you were not chosen?

I think I had ups and downs.

Can you do it in a different position?

I will try.

(Passionate)

(That's cool.)

Lastly, I want to see you dancing...

with Kim Si Won and Choi Ho Jong.

(Park Jun Woo is given a second chance.)

We need to check this.

I knew that once I proved myself,

they would want to see more.

Since then, I've become confident.

Three, two, one. Go.

(Falling in love)

Oh, I like that too.

He's so good at dancing.

(The Casting Audition becomes ripe.)

- He was good. - Yes.

Nice.

I think I was on a roll.

Kim Si Won, where do you prefer?

I prefer the Chief State Councillor.

Park Jun Woo, where do you prefer?

I also prefer the Chief State Councillor.

Then you two can't dance together.

If you have to make a concession, will you?

Yes. After trying just now,

I feel confident to pull off both.

He's ambitious.

The dancers who are cast for the main supporting roles are...

I knew I had what it took to be the one.

It could be me.

I might have a chance.

The dancers who are cast for the main supporting roles are...

Kim Si Won and Park Jun Woo.

Congratulations.

(Congratulating)

(Park Jun Woo won the supporting role in the end.)

It was thrilling.

I went to both paradise and the inferno today.

I won the main role among many candidates.

I should dance with responsibility.

You're doing great, Si Won.

I'll pull off the supporting role well...

and get my class back.

(Korean Dance Supporting Role Casting Audition Result)

(Kim Si Won and Park Jun Woo as main supporting roles)

(Korean Dance Main Lead Role Casting Audition)

The lead role candidate, Kim Jong Cheol, please come forward.

Good luck.

(Will Kim Jong Cheol be able to pull off?)

First position.

Music, start.

Three, two, one.

Go.

He must be under pressure.

(Will Kim Jong Cheol be able to get the lead role?)

(Also getting nervous)

(Kim Jong Cheol comes forward as if a path opened.)

Nice.

I like how they open up.

So sexy.

Jong Cheol isn't visible.

(Focused)

(Kim Jong Cheol's audition ends.)

The ending fairy.

He was good.

That was refreshing.

(What did the coaches think?)

Kim Jong Cheol.

The disappointing part about your performance was...

(The comment begins with criticism.)

You used an asymmetrical formation that spread open.

To me, Baek Sang Ha stood out more.

It felt like you lost your position of King...

to Baek Sang Ha.

You used the asymmetrical formation.

If it were a concert, it would've been a very charming formation,

but it was somewhat ambiguous for the Dance Film.

- Thank you for your work. - Thank you.

(Kim Jong Cheol's audition ended with harsh criticism.)

(The next main lead role candidate is Ki Moo Gan.)

(Ki Moo Gan begins with a surrounded formation.)

(Will Ki Moo Gan be able to get the main lead role?)

(Thinking)

(Appearing)

(That's right!)

(Eyes opening)

(What was that just now?)

(His lips are getting dry.)

(Nodding)

He has nice gestures.

(Focused)

(A neat ending)

(Ki Moo Gan's Casting Audition ends.)

(Automatic applause)

He looked like a real king.

He had the best acting.

- He was good. - Yes, in terms of acting.

- I knew he'd be good here. - He's good at the real thing.

When I first saw your formation,

I thought you wouldn't be visible,

surrounded by the ensemble.

But when the ensemble spread...

and began dancing, you dashed out.

Your eye-catching character.

That also played an integral role.

Thank you.

(The last main lead role candidate is Choi Ho Jong.)

I'm worried about the ensemble.

They'll get confused after every choreography.

It requires everyone's attention.

Isn't it too tight?

Can you check your marks again?

Stand in line. The square.

Line. Square.

If there's any problem, don't hesitate to tell me.

Three, two, one.

Go.

(Grinning)

(Intrigued)

(Exclaiming)

(Choi Ho Jong shows unique steps as usual.)

Nice.

Nice.

It's like the king's path.

Nice.

I'm getting the chills.

(Focused)

I see.

(Ho Jong's Casting Audition ends.)

That gave me the chills.

I like how he narrowed the space.

- It felt like the king's path. - Yes.

Here comes His Majesty the King.

I appreciate the ensemble's effort.

Even though you only had little time,

you danced like a team. I appreciated it.

What was on your mind when you came up with that choreography?

I thought the King should stand out.

I came up with the formation inspired by...

the rituals and One Dance.

He's smart.

He mentioned One Dance since it was about a king.

Still, it wasn't impressive enough.

(Coach Kim Jae Seung seems to find Choi Ho Jong's performance a shame.)

Choi Ho Jong.

As if the One Dance choreography had gone inside my head,

it was just perfect.

But what we needed was tension.

Your idea of the King and my idea of the King...

were different.

I believe the King...

sometimes has to hold a sword.

You should express...

the King's charisma more.

- Okay. - If you can.

- Okay. - Okay.

For the King role...

- It should be Moo Gan. - It should be Ki Moo Gan.

But in terms of choreography, Choi Ho Jong is more appropriate.

The fact that he adopted the One Dance...

But his character analysis was...

Will it be choreography...

or expression of character?

I will now announce the dancer...

who's cast for the main lead role.

It's the role I'm used to playing.

I thought I'd pull it off well if I got it.

(The perfect idea for the theme and the unique formation stood out.)

(Choi Ho Jong's choreography skills)

I should make them understand why I'm First.

(He seized attention with his unique charisma)

(Ki Moo Gan's expression level)

I will now announce the dancer...

who's cast for the main lead role.

(Who will take the lead role of Korean Dance Film?)

For the main lead role,

Ki Moo Gan is cast.

Congratulations.

(Approving)

(Unfortunately, Choi Ho Jong missed the main lead role.)

Moo Gan is just...

He's perfect.

I feel a sense of responsibility...

to end it with a good result.

I know it's hard to believe, but I'm very happy.

(Very happy)

Let me give Choi Ho Jong a word of advice.

We expect more from you.

We were expecting you to meet our expectations.

But this is our conclusion after contemplation.

Thank you.

I want to thank all three of you.

- Well done. - Congratulations.

Thanks.

I felt a lot of pressure.

I played the lead role in the National Dance Company of Korea.

"The leader of Korean dance."

Because I'm blinded by those bywords,

I can feel that people are expecting something from me.

That's kind of tough.

In future missions,

I want to prove myself.

(Korean Dance Main Lead Role Casting Audition Result)

(Ki Moo Gan as the lead role)

(The day of the Korean Dance Film shoot)

(The ensemble green room)

(The ensemble green room seems too crowded.)

(Packed)

There were only about ten chairs in the ensemble green room...

and a couple of mats.

The lead roles are given a personal couch.

(The lead role green room)

(The three lead roles are resting in a spacious green room.)

(This is refreshing.)

I know people in the other room will be upset,

but I loved it.

This is what it means to be in the ensemble.

This is how the Under Class is treated.

I was sad.

I can't wait to move up and receive a nice treatment.

(The lead role dancers are here to get changed.)

Isn't that Ki Moo Gan?

You need to wear the king's clothes.

(Ki Moo Gan changes into the king's clothes.)

(Flashy)

And the other lead roles, the ancestor's clothes.

(Is this the ancestors' vibe?)

If I don't do it right,

I might look like a beggar.

Can you help Ki Moo Gan get changed?

Okay.

(The production crew...)

(only gives the lead roles intense care.)

(Glancing)

You're a real king.

(Jealous)

We play lead roles too, but it's the supporting role.

We received different treatment from the main role.

Now, it's time to show who I am, so I'm excited.

- Try it. - Try it like this.

- He has been a bit dark all along. - Really?

Oh, there's a coffee truck.

(He found something more interesting.)

"We are expecting to see Dancer Ki Moo Gan's great performance."

Goodness.

That truck has come only for you.

(Everyone is quite excited.)

What's all this for?

That's awesome!

In the dance scene,

that kind of truck rarely comes when we perform.

To be honest, I was envious.

That's why I should be in the higher class.

- Thanks for the coffee. - Thank you.

I was quite surprised but felt so good.

I thought I should keep my position, no matter what.

(Truly happy)

Seven, eight, nine, and one.

- Two - Three, four.

- What's that? - What?

Hello. I'm the MC of Stage Fighter, Kang Daniel.

- He appeared again. - It's making me nervous.

In this program, your position is never secure.

- What? - Oh, my!

(They will change again?)

Through the Dance Film Mission,

your abilities will be evaluated,

and the Class Movement Ceremony will be held.

(Do you even know how hard it was to get here?)

(Seriously?)

(Then, I will have a chance too.)

The Korean Dance Film for the ceremony will be...

evaluated by other classes.

"Evaluated by other classes?"

Other classes will judge us.

(Really?)

Things are becoming cruel.

A dancer in First...

will judge Second and Under Classes.

(The voting method of other classes)

(Dancers in 1st will judge dancers in 2nd and Under Classes.)

A candidate for promotion...

A dancer in Second...

will judge First and Under Classes.

(Dancers in 2nd will judge dancers in 1st and Under Classes.)

Is this the way to choose candidates for promotion and demotion?

Today, we have 6 dancers from 2nd.

So 2 of them will be promoted, and 2 demoted.

A dancer in Under...

will judge 1st and 2nd Classes.

- We also have a chance to judge. - Gosh.

- They should gain our favour. - Indeed.

The two promotion and demotion candidates...

will be selected by popular vote.

- What? - Oh, my!

If a dancer overlaps, there will be a minimum of two candidates.

If not,

a maximum of 4 candidates are selected by the 2 classes.

(The 4 selected by 2 classes will be the candidates.)

I got goosebumps.

- Gosh. - I saw it coming.

(It's not a still frame.)

Candidates for promotion and demotion will be decided...

after Masters and Coaches' final judgment.

As of now, make your assessments.

From now on?

(Young Woo is confused.)

We only have one path. The promotion.

- We have no going down. - That's right.

- If things go bad, we just go home. - That's the only way.

We should decide who would be the right fit.

I should give my best.

(For dancers in First, only demotions are possible.)

(His time is still stopped.)

They'll start practising hard.

As of now, we should all stay tense.

This is a great opportunity for me.

I will step on them and go up.

"If I were there, I could've done better."

I will make sure they won't dare have such thoughts.

I've always undergone discrimination and have been pressured.

(Under Class was full of sorrow every time.)

(We're so envious of them.)

Now is the time to gain confidence.

We will judge you.

You're all dead now.

(Writing on the death note)

There was a reason Moo Gan treated us to coffee today.

He saw the bigger picture.

(Did you all enjoy coffee?)

(Grinning)

(Korean Dance Film shooting has begun.)

(Yongin Dae Jang Geum Park)

It's amazing.

(It is as big as a palace.)

It's like a palace!

Three, two, one. Music, start.

(The first shoot starts with the lead dancer, the King.)

(Determined)

That's cool.

(As the King spreads his arms,)

(rain clouds form.)

(It's beginning to sprinkle.)

Oh, my goodness.

It's raining so heavily.

(Can we still shoot in this weather?)

Dancers, please come over to the eaves.

It started raining as soon as we started.

(Laughing)

- It was a ritual for rain. - It was so quick.

(Their ritual is a great success.)

(They keep watching the monitor despite the rain.)

(Focused)

(He looks at it as if he'd penetrate it with his eyes.)

The weather was bad,

and I felt that many were wary due to what was coming.

I saw some of them were not eager...

to perform passionately.

As we were standing in one line,

it was easy to catch one slight mistake.

Si Won was standing at the very front,

but he kept missing the beat.

(The wave)

(Why can't we move as a team?)

(First and Second Classes shoot together.)

They're starting!

Watch carefully and find out who should be eliminated.

(Ki Moo Gan starts with a light hand movement.)

(Charismatic)

- Gosh! - Gosh!

His expression is amazing!

What's that pouting?

Is that movement really cool?

His facial expression is insane.

- Look at his facial expression. - Amazing.

His facial expression is absolutely amazing.

Ho Jong is really visible, isn't he?

He has his own charms.

That movement from Ho Jong was stunning.

(Wary)

(Jong Cheol seems a bit strained between them.)

What is Jong Cheol doing?

- He's quite... - He seems very unstable.

- Who made a mistake? - Jong Cheol.

Oh, my.

- He appears to be very tired. - He's not visible at all.

(The pressure of the two experts made him exhausted.)

Tae Yoon and Sang Gil behind them are just...

I can't see them at all.

(Supporting dancers are also quite invisible at the back.)

To be honest, as I saw Sang Gil,

I couldn't see any of his strengths.

- I clearly see it now. - We see who will be eliminated.

It was all fine before.

But after hearing the news about the vote,

I can't help but find their flaws and compare them with others.

(As the sun sets, the shooting nears its end.)

(The ensemble shooting of Under Class)

- They don't mix well. - We can see from a distance.

He said, "Let's go" to me, but...

- He said, "Let's go" to us. - He's like a fox.

Jong In said, "That's not how you dance ensemble."

(Let's see how you do.)

Let's try the count one more time.

(The ensemble is all about the fighting spirit.)

Now!

- We can start now. - We'll begin with the music.

(Jong In, the ensemble leader, burns with passion.)

After this, you guys should move right away.

In the ensemble,

Jong In is our pillar.

He has a great spirit and accommodates us.

Would this perfect teamwork be possible without him?

Let's focus a little more.

We're almost there!

(The sharp ensemble is ready to be perform.)

They're good.

(Fully focused)

(In the perfect ensemble, Baek Sang Ha's performance is quite striking.)

(That's it!)

(We acknowledge that.)

- Two, three. It's the end. - That was amazing.

- Baek Sang Ha. - Sang Ha.

Sang Ha was...

Sang Ha was quite overwhelming.

He crushed the stage alone.

(The 24 Korean dancers' Dance Film...)

(will be revealed shortly.)

Let's talk about the other classes frankly.

- Say whatever you want. - We're on Mnet.

What should I do?

They must be ready to bite all of us.

What do you think about the lead dancer?

The theme was "Reign of Peace."

But I felt like he was more of a tyrant.

Yes. I felt the image of a tyrant.

Speaking of Moo Gan,

I'm not sure he'd be the right fit...

as the lead role in other genres.

The aura from his face was so powerful,

so when he performed Ho Jong's choreography,

it was a bit disappointing.

His performance couldn't express the character.

Tae Yoon and Sang Gil should go down.

This is not a place to expect applause...

after performing the backhand swan.

Their dance was not mature enough.

Tae Yoon and Sang Gil behind them are just...

I can't see them at all.

Sang Gil was not powerful enough.

When practising,

Jun Woo kept his position, at least.

Si Won was criticized a lot...

due to his mistake of going into the center...

almost every day.

That was a bit disappointing.

"One, two, and..." He never did this...

at the right time.

He was the only one who moved slowly until the end.

He did that until the end.

Si Won was at the very front,

but he kept missing the beat.

If he were performing alone, that doesn't matter.

But this was an ensemble, so it wasn't so good.

I have...

a high expectation from Jong Cheol.

He couldn't show what his role was.

Personally, I couldn't see any from him.

(Jong Cheol made many mistakes during the Dance Film shoot.)

He seems very unstable.

I think...

that he showed his great abilities...

through his steady practice.

To me,

It didn't feel like he tried.

When it comes to Under Class, I can easily see...

Anyone could tell who was the worst.

- Sang Ha? - Yes, Sang Ha.

In today's shoot,

Sang Ha was dominant.

Actually, Jong In doesn't deserve...

- to be in the Under Class. - Right.

The first impression I got from Jong In...

during the Physical and Technique Audition was that he seemed cheap.

I'm really sorry.

But as I kept watching him, I could see he wanted to dance.

And he was good.

I want to see him in the upper class...

and enjoy it as much as he wants. I'm curious.

During the practice,

- he led them in a way. - I know.

Let's count together.

- Five, six, seven, eight. - Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, and do it right away on three.

The quality of the group dance was good this time.

I think it would've been impossible without Jong In.

He's a good dancer himself too.

I wrote, "The core of the ensemble."

It's really hard to pick the First Class.

During practice,

I think Ho Jong led them,

not Moo Gan.

From what I saw during practice too,

Ho Jong was almost a perfect dancer.

Even when I saw him from time to time,

it felt like his presence filled the entire space.

Whenever the camera panned to him, it raised the quality.

Right.

His hand moves.

It's still in my head.

When the camera zoomed in on his hands.

(Korean Dance)

(Ballet)

(Contemporary Dance)

(3 genres and 3 classes will come together.)

What's this?

(What is this grandeur and reverent place?)

- It's interesting. - It's for the class evaluation.

(The contemporary dancers enter in neat suits.)

The scale is so big.

(Confident)

Amazing.

It's crazy.

(What is this place for?)

Look at the chairs.

- What's this? - This is ridiculous.

People in the Under Class...

- should sit on the ground. - I know.

I'm upset.

The chairs are different.

They got sofas for the First Class.

They should've given us cushions, at least.

We're in the Under Class. What can we expect?

(At that moment, the 3 people in 1st Class make a casual entrance.)

The VIP seats.

These seats are for the kings.

The First Class.

This is awesome.

They treat the First Class differently.

I'm very satisfied.

It's a gift for the First Class...

and motivation for the Second and Under Classes.

I envied them.

The 1st Class we were in at 1st wasn't a true 1st Class.

- Right? - Yes.

I really want to sit there.

It's a society based on class.

(The ballet dancers appear later.)

(The princes march with an upright posture.)

Hello.

(Half clapping, half scanning)

The ballet dancers are in the center.

The seats for the First Class are amazing.

I think he's really good-looking. Was it Kang Gyeong Ho?

This seat puts me under pressure.

- They're different. - Yes.

They do all look like ballet dancers.

The princes.

Real princes.

We're like beasts, while they're...

They look like...

- over-sheltered flowers. - Yes.

- But it's the beasts that survive. - Right.

You can just pull out the flowers in the greenhouse.

- We're born different. - Yes. We're born different.

Nothing can be done.

We're born to be royal.

Right.

Do you like it there, Sung Wook?

- It's so uncomfortable. - Do you like it?

(No words are needed.)

That seat.

- What is it like to be there? - You're annoying.

I was so jealous and annoyed.

I wanted to pull the chair back.

Here come the scholars.

(The scholars are entering.)

Everyone has great proportions.

They're all good-looking.

They give off different vibes.

- They're scary. - They're scary.

(The Korean dancers in the First Class take their seats.)

The Korean dancers look unique.

The Korean dancers are definitely charismatic.

They're scary.

The long hair makes them look charismatic.

He has come.

He came out.

(Turning his head)

(Ta-da)

(The MC has come.)

He has very long legs.

The class battle of dancers...

where they fight with their bodies. Stage Fighter.

Hello, I'm MC Kang Daniel.

(Everyone is cheering.)

(Welcoming applause)

Stage Fighter has a strict class system.

You have played your assigned roles...

and finished the genre-specific Dance Films.

Dancer Go Dong Hoon, you were in the ensemble.

Were you jealous...

of the lead and supporting dancers?

I'm sharpening my knife for the next time.

What if you become an ensemble again in the next mission?

I can assure you that I'll never become an ensemble.

- That's good. - It hurt my pride a lot.

I thought I should shut up and go up.

Dancer Kim Tae Seok.

You were demoted from the First Class to the Under Class.

What did you think, looking at the lead and supporting dancers?

Their seats are mine now.

(Surprised)

They won't have a chance from now on.

- That was good. - Bravo.

People can have different opinions.

I respect that, but nothing more.

I want to be promoted to the First Class, no matter what.

From now on, we will begin the class evaluation...

through the Dance Film.

We've conducted a vote to select candidates...

for promotion and demotion...

from classes other than your own.

Which one among us will go up?

"I think we need to communicate."

I think my comment was too harsh.

Think that their comments will be harsh as well.

It's a survival.

The ones that stood out to me the most are...

They stood out to me.

Even during practice,

- I wondered... - His moves suited it.

why he was in the Under Class.

You've selected the final candidates for promotion and demotion.

Among these candidates,

the Master, the Coaches, and the Rehearsal Director...

will decide on the dancers to be promoted or demoted.

I'm interested to see what the finished product will look like.

Shall we check the candidates...

chosen by the dancers?

I guess they picked him as he took the lead many times.

- And I think it would be... - But...

- He'll have to go. - two candidates for demotion...

(The evaluation was conducted carefully after a lengthy meeting.)

What do I do?

He's going to go down from the top. It's a cool-headed...

Who are the candidates for promotion and demotion...

picked by the dancers in the same genre?

We have nowhere to go down.

I think it's possible this time.

I don't want to think that I will be demoted.

I should keep my position. Who else can be in the First Class?

Some of the dancers in the Second Class...

should be demoted.

The change should be made quickly.

We will begin the class evaluation...

through the genre-specific Dance Film.

The first class evaluation...

is Korean dance.

(The first Dance Film class evaluation is Korean dance.)

- Come on. - Let's go!

(The lead dancer is calm.)

The class evaluation will be conducted...

through the Korean Dance Film,

"The King's Wish: Reign of Peace."

(The Korean Dance Film is revealed.)

I'm nervous.

It's a battle.

I'm excited about Korean Dance the most.

Me too.

I think it'll come out well.

It's already cool.

- "Reign of Peace." - The scale must be big.

It has a huge scale.

I'm so excited.

My heart has never beaten so fast since I came here.

(Korean Dance Film)

I hope it turned out well.

I think it will show a palace.

It'll be epic from the beginning.

(Lead dancers, Supporting dancers, Ensemble)

- The scale is different. - Oh, my gosh.

It's crazy. What's this?

I'm excited.

(Everyone is impressed.)

(Korean Dance Film)

I hope it turned out well.

I think it will show a palace.

It'll be epic from the beginning.

(Lead dancers, Supporting dancers, Ensemble)

- The scale is different. - Oh, my gosh.

It's crazy. What's this?

I'm excited.

(Everyone is impressed.)

The Chief State Councillor.

It looks like a period drama.

He's the King.

Oh, my. Moo Gan.

It's so cool.

It's so cool.

The King is so cool.

- Oh, my gosh. - Why does it look so cool?

(The King's figure)

It's a period drama itself.

He's so charismatic.

Choi Ho Jong.

The way he expressed that with his fingertips is crazy.

(Choi Ho Jong's delicate fingertips)

Ho Jong is so good.

Ho Jong and Jong Cheol.

They're so cool.

Beautiful.

It's insane.

(Captivating eyes)

(Exclaiming)

(It's so cool.)

It's really cool.

The group dance.

(It's time for the group dance.)

(Impressed)

It's crazy.

Nice!

Min Suk.

- Oh, my gosh. - My goodness.

I love this part.

It's cool.

It's his solo dance. The main one.

(Play the instruments)

They shouldn't have filmed the video there. It's too good.

They're in sync. The group dance is so cool.

It's so good.

Right here.

Come on.

(What's this?)

Look at the transition.

(The atmosphere changes...)

(as the Chief State Councillor and the Left State Councillor appear.)

- What? - The atmosphere is crazy.

The quality is amazing.

It's cool.

- The line is beautiful. - Jun Woo was nice.

Dancer Park Jun Woo... I don't know what to do.

He stands out so much.

It's crazy.

The Chief State Councillor and the Left State Councillor catch eyes.

Yes.

(Come on!)

Korean dance is vibrant.

I like it.

Korean dance is vibrant.

(Play the instruments)

(It's so exciting.)

(Grooving)

I like the music.

It's an EDM beat drop.

It's so exciting.

Oh, my.

- Ho Jong and Jong Cheol. - And Jong Cheol.

They stole the spotlight.

There you go.

(Show us the group dance!)

Let's go!

It's cool.

It's so cool.

The outdoor shoot wasn't easy, but it's worth it.

It's so cool.

- They're in sync. - It's incredible.

(Jaban)

(Impressed)

They're doing the jaban.

- Look at the quality. - I got goosebumps.

Jun Woo looks so cool.

This is awesome.

(Come on!)

The dancers are upstairs too.

This scene is so cool.

- Yes. - Oh, my.

(Cheering)

It's so cool.

(You can watch the dancers' full performances on The CHOOM.)

(You can listen to the music in the Dance Film on various platforms.)

(This is Korean dance!)

It came out well.

- This is Korean dance. - You got this.

- What's with the standing ovation? - It's so cool.

Bravo!

(It's the best!)

It was cool.

The group dance was crazy.

First off, the group dance was nice.

The group dance was insane.

- Why are you so handsome? - Me?

- Your face came out. - I looked like this.

(He's ecstatic.)

The ensemble owned the moment.

Sang Ha was overwhelmingly superior to the others...

that I didn't even wonder about the 2nd or the 1st Classes.

It was insane.

The ensemble couldn't have done better.

Everyone did a great job.

If I make a mistake, it looks like everyone makes a mistake.

So I thought I should pour everything into it.

It came out well.

But they didn't show us.

They didn't show us.

The trio dance could've been a little better.

Sang Ha was the main character.

I couldn't see the lead dancer.

I'm the main lead dancer.

But the group dance scene was the best.

I'm a little worried.

I thought the ensemble was amazing.

Some of them will be promoted from the Under Class.

From now on, we will reveal the final number and names...

of the candidates for promotion and demotion in each class,

chosen by the Korean dancers themselves...

in the other classes.

Korean dance, the First Class.

I'll announce the candidates for demotion.

- I can't make any predictions. - Here it comes.

I don't know which ones in the First Class are candidates for demotion.

Right?

How should I put it?

I was...

quite indifferent.

The number of final candidates for demotion in the First Class...

chosen by people in the other classes is two in total.

(Exclaiming)

(Sulking)

Only one of them survived?

The 1st candidate for demotion in the 1st Class is...

Jong Cheol?

(Gasping)

(Jong Cheol?)

I have no expectations.

I was ready to accept the result.

The video was so cool.

But why do I feel like I'll be demoted?

I hoped they would compete against each other without an issue.

Because it wasn't my business.

The candidate for demotion in the First Class...

is Dancer Ki Moo Gan.

(He tries to stay calm.)

(Surprised)

(Surprised)

(The unexpected result surprised the dancers.)

He's the first one to be revealed.

I've had a bad feeling since the morning.

I had a bad dream.

The dancer who picked Dancer Ki Moo Gan as a candidate is...

Please don't say my name.

- This is bad. - Please.

I have a bad feeling.

- Who would it be? - Dancer Kim Kyu Nyeon...

- in the Second Class... - Hey.

Dancer Kim Kyu Nyeon in Second Class...

wrote that the Main Lead Dancer Ki Moo Gan in First Class...

suited the role,

(Interested)

but his dancing skills were lacking.

(Glancing)

Goodness.

(I saw him writing it!)

He talked about his dance?

- This is bad. - Dance?

(Kim Kyu Nyeon isn't here.)

This is what Dancer Choi Ji Won in Under Class wrote.

- It's you. - Why did he mention my name?

"Is he the King that suits the Reign of Peace?"

He read exactly what was written.

He was really good,

but he felt like a tyrant, rather than a king.

A tyrant?

(He was like a tyrant.)

"I liked his expressions and moves,"

"but Dancer Choi Ho Jong caught my attention more."

That's his comment.

- I can tell Moo Gan is mad. - Dancers in the other classes...

(Aura of anger)

I'll keep that in mind.

(I'm scared.)

I think we made a mistake.

I'm so scared.

I can't breathe.

"Everyone was talking about Ki Moo Gan,"

"but he's not special." I'm afraid they might say that.

I'm embarrassed.

Listening to their honest opinions,

I thought, "I'm sure I'm still better than you."

(Next Week, the Class Movement Ceremony for Korean dance begins.)

(Another candidate in the Korean dance First Class...)

(for demotion is revealed.)

(Dancer)

(What? What happened?)

(Everyone is frozen.)

(Jaw-dropping)

(It's cruel.)

(Is this a dream?)

(This is the comment on Dancer Choi Ho Jong in the First Class...)

(made by Dancer Kim In Su in the Under Class.)

(I do think Ki Moo Gan...)

(executed his role well.)

(It's vicious.)

(It's cruel.)

(I was really surprised.)

(Does it mean it was relatively worse?)

(Choi Ho Jong and Ki Moo Gan, please check your classes...)

(in the Class Confirmation Zone.)

(I didn't expect it.)

(It got me surprised.)

(The two dancers became speechless after checking their classes.)

(Please go to the Class Locker Room.)

(First, Second, Under)

(The locker rooms are divided according to the classes.)

(All the blood rushed to my head.)

(My hands were numb...)

(and shaking.)

(My heart is beating so fast.)

(What will happen to the Korean dancers in the First Class?)
