The show centers on 6 different K-Pop female acts performing against one another every week, with all groups releasing a new single by the end of the competition to see which single reaches the most success on the music charts. The first season featured lauded acts like Park Bom, AOA, MAMAMOO, Lovelyz, OH MY GIRL, and (G)I-DLE as contestants. After Mnet announced an upcoming second season of the show set to be hosted by Girls’ Generation’s TaeYeon, many fans began to discuss which groups they wanted to see featured on a second season of “Queendom” until Mnet officially announced the six female K-Pop artists set to compete in the show. Kpopmap opened a vote on Feb. 25 asking fans which groups they were highly anticipated, don’t miss to check out the results here. With the start of “Queendom 2” coming soon on Mar. 31, Kpopmap has compiled a list of dazzling choreographies by these six artists in anticipation of the show’s release. These choreographies prove these female artists are dancing queens and can execute choreographies with precision and power. Hopefully, we can also see them perform these songs and choreographies on the show.
1. Brave Girls - ‘We Ride’
After their 2017 song ‘Rollin’’ went viral on the internet and rose on the music charts, Brave Girls are continuing to rise as a formidable girl group in the K-Pop industry. ‘We Ride’ is the group’s latest comeback and the song’s choreography perfectly reflects the mellow and groovy vibe of the city-pop inspired track. The choreography has simple movements but is riveting because of the girls’ execution. This choreo is a good choice for anyone looking to learn more K-Pop choreographies.
2. VIVIZ - ‘BOP BOP!’
Rookie group VIVIZ members EunHa, SinB, and UmJi are no strangers to spectacular choreography. Formerly part of GFRIEND, a group commended for their complex dances, the girls re-debuting together with ‘BOP BOP!’ shows off their dancing abilities and stage presence. The inclusion of backup dancers is able to create unique formations and the overall playfulness of the choreography is able to highlight the girls individually and as a whole unit. This is certainly a debut choreography nobody will ever forget!
3. WJSN - ‘Secret’
WJSN (also known as Cosmic Girls), is a girl group adored by K-Pop fans domestically and internationally. One of the group’s earliest releases, ‘Secret’ employs the “cosmic” concept that would become the group’s signature image. Not only is the song itself very catchy, the choreography is a marvel to watch. Having all thirteen members create lines and form unique formations allows the choreography to feel regal and grander. If we had to choose, the choreography for the chorus where the members are moving their arms with grace is arguably the best part of the whole dance. WJSN continues to have detailed and energetic dances but ‘Secret’ will always have a special place in fans’ hearts for its choreography.
4. LOONA - ‘Butterfly’
LOONA has become a global sensation frequently recognized for their synchronization and stage presence while dancing and ‘Butterfly’ is no exception. The choreography utilizes everything great about LOONA’s choreographies. The synchronization is out of this world and LOONA uses the number of members the best here to create never-before-seen formations. Let’s not forget the ripples and risky choreography they pull off at this section. Moreso, the group uses their hands and arms to resemble the butterfly motif present in the song. Ultimately, the elegant and majestic choreography of LOONA’s “Butterfly” perfectly represents the free-spirited and elegant nature of a butterfly.
5. Kep1er - ‘MVSK’
Formed on the hit Mnet survival show “GIRLS PLANET 999,” Kep1er is already making their mark as a powerhouse rookie group. While nobody can forget the iconic dance for ‘WA DA DA,’ it’s their B-side release ‘MVSK’ where the group shows their ability to pull off a mature concept. Choreographed by Kang EunJoo and “GIRLS PLANET 999” dance mentors Jang JuHee and Mihawk Back, the B-side’s intricate choreography utilizes more mature and sleek dance moves. The ripples and formations require so much precision and timing (the dance break at the 2:10 timestamp is a highlight). Fortunately, the nine members of Kep1er are able to flawlessly execute this concept and choreography.
6. HyoLyn - ‘Layin Low’
Seen by many as one of the best K-Pop female dancers and vocalists, Former SISTAR member HyoLyn’s solo releases have always shown off the superstar’s charms and performance skills. The choreography for her song ‘Layin Low’ exudes the confidence and sexy concept HyoLyn is known for, embodying a lot of sensual movements and floor work. The fact she looks effortless dancing while wearing high heels is a feat of its own. While HyoLyn will be the only soloist competing in the season, she still will be a force to be reckoned with.
