Fantastic Friday KPop Showcase #2: Prepix

Friday is here again and as mentioned from last week’s showcase on Jay Park, I’ll be highlighting a group he’s worked with for many years. For this one, do yourself a favor and find some open unobstructed space… because you’re going to want to dance along-


Artist Group: Prepix
Song: Project Prepix Asia 4th Practice

I was actually introduced to Prepix by my little brother who was head of a dance troupe in college. He was astounded, as I am today, that more Koreans and people in general did not know the group, since within the dance and entertainment world Prepix stands at the top. If you Youtube search their performances worldwide, you’ll understand why.

Prepix is a dance group, to put it simply, that is composed of Korea’s best hip-hop, contemporary, and break-dancers as well as top choreographers who also perform. Their accolades are innumerable and are known for their ongoing innovation.

But what sets Prepix apart from nearly all dance groups in the world is their integral role in the pop music industry in Korea and abroad. They are arguably the biggest influence, directly and indirectly, in the rise of highly choreographed music videos and training regiments for pop groups. They are the go-to specialists for new dance and help train aspiring stars from a very young age, even performing with them in debut videos.

  • Megastar Groups that Prepix has trained - 2PM, G.NA, BEAST, Jay Park

They’ve capitalized on this position as well, offering dance classes in Gangnam for aspiring dancers. One of my bucket list items is to jam with the group. Let me know if you want to tag along!

Ah heck, here’s another one ‘cause this stuff is incredible!


Song: Prepix & The Rookies | Off The Walls

Until next week, dance on!
