Do you know that there are so many fun and exciting things to do in SS15 Courtyard that is of Korean delicacies and even a hair saloon opened by a Korean!
Let me take you on a super quick tour!
Come and excite your tastebuds with the BEST BINGSU in town, at Han Bing! My favourite is the Mango Bingsu and Strawberry Bingsu! They also have food here where you can enjoy a good variety of korean dishes like the Kimchi Cheese Fried Rice or the Cheese Topokki or even some yummy fried korean chicken!
Get yourself a makeover upstairs on the first floor at the Korean Hair Shop opened by a Korean! Where else better to get a good Korean hair style than to get it direct from a Korean themselves! So start styling up now!

If you'd like a twist of Korean food, you can head over to Mr. Dakgalbi, located downstairs at LG floor; where they serve up a feast of everything mixed in a post together!! It's like a buffet pot! You can have ramen, rice, egg, cheese, chilli, sausages, meat, veggie etc all in the same pot cooking and simmering together as you dine with your family and friends!

That's not all!
There will be a ss15 Courtyard K-Pop Dance Cover Competition held at the Concourse, Ground Floor at ss15 Courtyard and registrations are open to EVERYONE without limits of age or Nationality!
Why call it the K-pop Dance Cover Competition?
Well, if you are a fan of K-pop Music, then you will surely understand why! Because everytime that awesome beat plays on TV/Radio/MP3/Mobile or wherever, you just feel like breaking it down and dance away to the rhythm! Which is why the whole dance cover comes about when people aspire to be like their favourite K-Pop stars! And sometimes, it ain't just breaking it down to the tune, it's trying to mimic every single steps exactly to the MV!
Hence, if you wanna join the competition and the K-Pop group/star that you are doing the dance cover for, has to have the same amount of members for the participating groups.
Example : 2NE1 consists of 4 members and you will be doing a Dance cover of their song, your participation must also consists of 4 members doing the same Dance cover together as a team.
This competition will be judged by Danny from RJVN DC, a dance crew which focused more towards street dance. A little background, Danny Lee is the founder of the Rejuvenate Dance Crew and Peanut Butter Studio. With a Diploma in Performing Arts, he aspires to continue exploring new ideas and concepts to better build the Malaysian Dance Scene with everyone. With credits like 8TV Showdown 2013 All-stars, Astro Battleground 2013 and Asian Battleground 2016; and Thailand Seacon International Champion, he has started a few dance competitions locally like Shuddup N' Dance, Peanut Battle Jam and Novice Jam and even hosted Battle of the Year Malaysia 2016. In RJVN DC’s recent performances, they have started doing k-pop dances by a surge of clients and fans request for more k-pop performances. Incase you are still unaware, RJVN DC is involved in technicality segment of a lot of local dance competition and even K-pop dance competitions.
I don't know if you all remember when was the hype of these K-Pop hype, but I know it was when "Nobody, Nobody, but you" hit the GLOBAL music air waves! "Practically since Rain & Wonder Girls’ time. That's like in the last 5-6 years, and the competition gets to be more commercialize and popular. Like they say, everything starts of as a trend in the beginning! Even Pop culture is a trend," says Danny.
"For example like street dance, from the past it was always about break-dance, now we
have locking and many more!" (What is locking ah? I know how to lock doors je so my kids don't run out! lolx...)
Danny also mentions that, "As Korean artist keep on presenting good music videos and stage performances, their fans will continue to cover their dance steps and even fashion style! K-pop has never stopped producing new artistes and good tunes every year, and their marketing is really good. This phenomenon is not just a trend, it will last for a while. Because more and more people are learning k-pop dance."
So if you're like me and you wanna feel young again, time to keep up with trend and dance with your loved ones! Just boogie with it~!
Who said, MOMS CAN'T DANCE?! (but I not joining competition la, xiao meh lolx~!)
Time for all you K-Pop fans and enthusiasts to strut your stuff at this competiton to stand a chance to compete for amazing prizes!
If you wanna join, some tips you can start learning now is to learn from YouTube, do your own research into your own skills and talents and improvise and practice makes perfect! You can even take up classes too! You have until end of this month for the competition! Gambateh~!
