Breakdancing has become an official Olympic event.
The first DanceSport to appear at an the global Games.
South Korea boasts some of the biggest name in this realm, and is looking to bag gold at the Paris 2024 games.
Han Seong-woo went to find out how they are getting ready.
From the streets of New York to the grandest stage in sports.
'Breaking', also known as breakdancing, or B-boying, will make its official Olympic debut at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
And South Korea's top dance crew believes the country can take home the world's first Olympic gold medal in breaking.
"I'd say we have a 50 percent chance of bringing home gold. Those are great odds. I mean... it's like flipping a coin."
As well as running Jinjo Crew, Kim Heon-jun is also vice chair of the newly formed breaking committee in the Korean Federation of DanceSport,
The committee will oversee the athlete registration process and the organization of the national team... leading up to 2024.
"We plan on formally requesting the Korean Sport and Olympic Committee to include breaking as a competitive event at the annual National Sports Festival."
The Paris games will have two gold medals at stake: one for b-boys and one for b-girls.
16 dancers in each event will battle it out, one on one, to determine who is best.
Breakdancing legend Kim Heon-woo, who goes by the stage name "Wing", has been a judge at international competitions and expects the Olympics to be judged on criteria such as fundamentals, originality and musicality.
''Above all, I believe the dancer who can flawlessly execute all of their moves will come out on top."
Bboyrankingz.com currently ranks South Korea at number two in the world and has two Korean dancers, Wing and Hong10, ranked in the top five individuals ... raising hopes that, with proper support from the government, the gold medal is within reach.
"Looking back at all we've won, we had always thought to ourselves, 'If this were the Olympics, we'd be national heroes'... But now that it's a reality, the time has come for breakdancers to finally shine."
"With their eyes on the top prize, B-boys and B-girls nationwide will be training their hearts out for the next three and a half years, hoping for a shot at Olympic glory."

I'm from the States, and I am completely behind South Korea for the 2024 gold in Paris. They've taken this "US" sport and made it their own, taking it to a level that the rest of the world can only attempt to emulate. Hoping to see them perform live in the summer Olympics! Love and respect to all South Korean bboys and bgirls, from Germany:)
Wish they had this year's ago!
This looks dope
Hopefully, Korea will do exceptionally well in 2024. They really suffered in 2020 Tokyo (they haven't done that badly since 1984 L.A.)
Black American culture has gone WORLDWIDE
Worrd
If you don't call it "breakdancing" and change the clothes, then it's basically gymnastics floor exercise.
Its B-Boying.
Yeah, right. Take outctge flips.. There's not one gymnast that can execute moves as today's b- boys do.. Not one...period
50%? that's overly optimistic
It's really really hard work and training to breakdance believe it or not
SHEEESH!
💝💖❤️
Love this breakdancing as an Olympic sport- however, no need to separate men and women! 🙏🏾
The speed, strength and power involved in some of the moves would make it unfair.
Man Korea could take it with Hong 10 and wing alone!
🇺🇸
Yeah, but japan has really good ones to
@@floresvargas2589 trau
Both are old. Victor better
France Russia, Philippines Poland, Ukraine,USA, Japan, Korea., China are favourite.
Let's Just ALL celebrate that B-boying/Bgirl is in the Olympics, and that the next generation finally have the biggest platform to showcase their talent. No Hatin' Just Appreciating!
God Bless! All...
Thank you USA for inventing breaking
African Americans to be precise. They've singlehandedly created every form of modern culture, for the last 200 years. And get little credit for it.
They have created much but saying every single one is definitely a stretch
@@SuperMuneera close. African Americans, Puerto Rican American, Mexican Amercians.
Puerto Ricans created Reggaeton as far as I know as well as other dancing styles used for modern ballroom. As for the U.S, virtually every modern music genre created created by Americans has come from either Blacks or Whites.
@@TheBalisong5 But the Puerto Ricans you're talking about are the Afro Puerto Ricans. The Afro Brazilians created Samba and the Afro Argentians created Salsa.
But the most popular forms of music and dance have come from America, thanks to African Americans.
He no longer moves his pen aimlessly 😂
What controversy is this in reference to?
@@younot-ez3xr Go watch all the old Airang news videos. He moved his pen left and right throughout the segment for no reason.
@@danielkim7212 I didn't know about that. Maybe they got sick and tired of him doing that
YAY FBA 🏹✊🏿CULTURAL DANCE ON THE WORLDSTAGE.. THANKYOU WORLD✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
And we won't get any credit for it as usual!!!
@@sterlingturner5420 The thing is THE WORLD KNOWS and KNOW YTS ARE CULTURAL THIEVES AND THAT HAVE NEVER INVENTED ANYTHING BUT THE ARTS OF THEFT n LIES A SPORT THEY'RE WELL SKILLED AT.. GOLD MEDAL SKILLED IN FACT☝🏿💯
So many deserving sports .
Physix was #1
and I was hoping they would make eating contest an event.... ya'll keepin' f'real
In the breakdance guys and ladies your must to down many kilos to dance breakdance very well guys and ladies AND to drink water forever
bboy lil zoo from morocco gonna take it
Lol breakdancing is included but squash isn't. Absolutely sorry state of Olympics
Why tf is breakdancing in the Olympics?
Cause it's international
Its amazing Poor Marginalised black and Latino communities created this dance and now its in the Olympics and going to be monetized by the same type of people that would Marginalised them..how amazing
Bboys an Bgirls... My money's on the Chinese acrobats, or Russian carnival worker's. What brands of cardboard an what styles of corrogation will they use 😑 Hope some rock the k-swiss low top classics. Don't dirty this with your rassist bull pie, it's never been anything but fully inclusive.
Paris 2024 got rid of baseball for this?!
thank god
ruclips.net/video/85nGY4-oMRI/видео.html yes for this
ก็สมละ เกาหลีใต้ เป็นลีค bboy ระดับโลกแบบนี้ ชาติที่น่ากลัว มีเกาหลีใต้ ญี่ปุ่น และก็ชาติในโซนยุโรปอะ น่ากลัว ตอนนี้ เด็กน้อยอย่าง shigekix น่ากลัวมาก
That's a beautiful scripture.
If they stick to power moves, this will be great. I really hope they don’t start showing 6 step and style on Olympics. Air flares, 90’s, halos, elbow spins, etc. variations and combos of these are very difficult and like gymnastics very few people can do. Shuffling feet uniquely is something anyone can copy and for the average person looks silly rather then impressive. If someone can learn to do what they see on tv in 5 min. It shouldn’t be Olympics. “Watch as he does the worm, then grabs his nuts. Now he’s going to shuffle his feet to the beat of the music and finish with a simple yet awkward freeze, perfect execution” please no.
Imagine doing 6 steps in Olympics🤣
Are they can just mix it up to any extent they please?
@@blackbeltjones2903 I feel it’s a about the audience. Mostly hot Asian girls specifically. I really don’t care about break dancing as a hobby or sport. Did it in the early 2000’s and I sure the hell picked up what I wanted. With power moves. Today, I’m older and can’t take injury risks. But more importantly, good looking girls just aren’t into it anymore in the U.S. Piano is a much better usage of my time to impress the women I’m interested in, or at least get their attention. Or money and owning a house. Cars seems to no longer be a factor. To be honest, I think 100% of hot women stay at home and hide from men unless they take the risk of eating out. Maybe being a waiter is the key today.
@@blackbeltjones2903 Oh, that might not make sense how that is related to our discussion. Power moves are what impresses. The only people that care about style are other breakers. Take street performers. You have 1 crew doing style and foot work. The other is busting out one handed air flares, chair flares double halos, etc. who’s going to have the crowd and a fatter bucket full of money? I saw one street crew and only 1 guy did regular windmills. It was the only thing that got some oohhs and awwws, which is said that’s the best they had in 2022.
@@lexevo I think there's a place for less flashy techniques because it's ultimately a form of dance, not merely feats of athleticism. I imagine they'll judge based on athleticism and creativity. Creativity exists to a large degree in style. Best of both worlds is what I'm getting at, basically. You see that mix of artistry and power in figure skating and gymnastics.
Now add singing also in Olympics further 🤦🤦🤦🤦shameless Olympics committee
@@OAT86 breaking is a dance form or sports ?
My dumbass read that as 2014 smh
I want to represent breakdance for The United States of America.
Korea is always #1
Especially when they cheat. Like when they hosted the olympics and the Korean guy beat Roy Jones Junior, one of the best boxers of all time? Or when Korea hosted the world cup with Japan and the refs didn't call fouls on the Korean team and they beat teams like Portugal, Italy and Spain, lmao!!
I really love breakdancing but this would be dumb as fuck. Urban sports are fine: Skateboarding, Freestyle BMX, Surfing, Street Basketball, Climbing are sports. Breakdancing is an urban DANCE. What’s next, salsa and tango? Grafitty?
@@OAT86 Dance is an art, and as such, it’s form of expression. For that reason I think that any form or artistic criteria is made by subjective standards, dancing judges use their own experience and knowledge to make a decision, he determines who’s a better dancer based in his appreciation and understanding of the dance, but at the end of the day, it’s subjective. Sports in the other hand, are physical disciplines that involve skill and performance, and specially: rules that are fixed and non negotiable (If the surfer’s board tip touches the wave, he/she loses points, if an athlete steps outside a line, he/she can be disqualified, subjectivity has little to no room in sports.
Actually back then they even had painting. I would love to see it return and some new games like Tug of war, squash, probably bowling and chess boxing.
@@carl_anderson9315 That's why artistic swimming, gymnastics and sometimes boxing have created many controversial results in the past and now too.
It's a black dance not urban
Olympic sports WTFF????

What's next pole dancing next Olympic sport?
Probably waving long flags on poles, trampoline jumping, throwing balls or something like that.
I'd watch that for sure 😃
@@girtisholland trampoline jumping is already an Olympic sport
@@Indiandrumproject They all are. I was being sarcastic towards the OP

🫡🇰🇷🇫🇷 👍😊
Beer chugging should be in the Olympics
발음봐라 ㅋㅋ
If you can call breakdancing a sport you can call marching band a sport, and other activities that are not classified as sports can be called sports.
You, ma’am, are a stooge.
I disagree, breaking is extremely difficult, keeping your stamina is very hard, and requires alot of strength and discipline
Better than Equestrian
People who say this have only seen amateurs who do beginner routines. There's no way you can deny the insane athleticism of some of the top dancers.
You have no idea what your talking about. Those two can not compare. Yet you call curling, equestrian, and synchronized swimming a sport. GTFOH
You do know that some of the things that the gymnasts do on their floor exercises where invented and first performed by break dancers right?
Another artform Blacks created that we never get credit for smh
It's blasphemy that bboying is an olympic event but twerking isn't. It takes hard work and talent too
Leets see you try doing airflares, air chairs or some power and freeze combo then you can talk shit about breaking. Its better if you just shut your mouth than talk about things you know nothing about.
@@diazmaklincarld.1286 dude, i have seen many average high school kids who can do those. Same as basketball. I'm sure you can make a 3 pointer if you tried. But that don't mean you can train and discipline the same way that real athletes and olympians do. Try train with them, it take a HECK alot more effort and sacrifices than some bboys. Omg you gotta be kidding me if you think bboy can stand on the same pedestal as Michael Phelp, Jesse Owens, Muhammad Ali, Simone Biles, or Usain Bolt. You can't compare Olympic with some street performances. Only reason olympic want to include this is because they want to look cool, which just means that they want the crowd and their money.
@@whiteemerald1083 Are you braindead? most bboys have trained their entire life to get to the level they are now, they have just as much hard work and discipline as these athletes you just mentioned. If you have never breakdanced then you know nothing about how hard it is. Stop talking shit when you know nothing about breaking.
@@laurlore11 oh sure and why not fishing then? because it also requires discipline, dedication, and hard work.
next, blowing bubble gum is also an olympic sport. train those mastication muscles and learn the head tilt moves. LOL
Bboying is more physically demanding than half the olympic sports clown...
And yet, practically every other form of dance is more complex in its artistic and technical elements. Breakdancing doesn't belong at the Olympics (seriously, over ballet?), and this is just a desperate attempt to keep the games cool/relevant for younger generations.
tell me which form of dance is more like sport to you?
This comment shows you know nothing about breaking
Yes, ballet being a bit similar to gymnastics should be there now that they are including dance forms.
Literally no other dance form is as complex as breaking, high level breakers are superhuman, you are just talking out your ass
@@ronk2307 You don't know what you're talking about. Breaking wouldn't even crack the top 10 for the most complex form of dance.
Please no Break dancing! I officially declare it's not a sport, next it will be yo-yo added!!!! Ridiculous!!!!!!
Breakdance is sport...full power dance...take 7 years to learn
@@pecacaiyt8330 they might be fuck up the dance tho. It better not based on powermoves
Twerking better get in next!
Oh hell no
My goodness. The Olympics is slowly being bastardised by trash
Have you ever tried breakdancing, I see where you are coming from but it’s very hard too
WOW!! How cool, break dancing in the Olympics. I wonder why the the break dancer do not look like the people who created break dancing.
Systemic racism?
