Looks like it's gonna be pretty sick. You should go, especially if your one of those people that thinks they hate hip-hop culture because you actually know nothing about it. Also, to anyone even remotely interested in dance/gymnastics/yoga/martial arts/graffiti art/real hip-hop, this is where it's at - the height of modern dance.

I hate Hip Hop but Break Dancing is really awsome. One of the hardest physical feats that any one can do in my opinion.

I checked out the site and couldn't seem to find a schedule of any times for the actual events.

Any links or information would be appreciated.

I called the English Information line yesterday since the English site for the festival seems a little lacking. They said the Korean site doesnt have much more information. However, gates open at 2pm and the main "battles" start at 6pm. Its the same schedule for Saturday and Sunday. They could tell me another other times or events that we taking place.

Anyone else have any info?

The individual competition will be on Saturday, and the crew battle will be on Sunday. Apparently most of the tickets are already sold out, so you may have to just show up and hope to buy a ticket in person.

Who won on Sunday? I went on Saturday and was shocked to see that the Russians came in first place in the performance category. I thought Pockemon or the group from Denmark would come in first.

I appreciate incredible althletic feats , but what the heck does throwing stupid gangsta wannabe poses and wearing stupid clothes have to do with that ?

I appreciate this for example .....

Either you're a gangster...or you're a skinny little kid who likes to dance around like a muppet in front of a mirror 5 hours a day. You're never both , so drop the silly pretense.

Thanks for proving my point. That's exactly the level of (or entire lack of) intellectual sophistication and argument I'd expect from someone who liked"B-boying".
