  • My daughter's been listening to KPop, and I took a closer look. Let's consider Girls' Generation *Into the New World*. You can watch the Ballad versions, with NO dancing, at the [Tokyo Dome for the 2011 Girls Generation Tour](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_ZUmMzP5ts), and [Girls and Peace concert in Seoul](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmQVpxrWeZE).
  • Here are the versions with dance, [at their debut on Show! Music Core on 2007 08 11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdjhDjKbcUg) and the [nine girls practicing it](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DETxIxN6pEQ).
  • 1. First, I don't understand what the racking dancing adds?
  • 2. Second, I can understand some easygoing dancing to accompany the music, but why's the dancing so toilsome? This dancing definitely wearies on these youngsters. YouTube has so many videos of KPop Idols [fainting and collapsing](https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=kpop+idols+fainting)?
  • I'm assuming that ordinary listeners aren't trained and can't dance like this. Thus why don't these KPop Idols and KPop Management Companies stick to laid-back dancing or dancing that their fans can realistically mimic?

You can see their racking dancing in other parts of this same Tokyo Dome performance.
