Preface: On October 20, 2021, Youku held the China Merchants Association and announced the list of variety films for 2022, including a program called "The Great Dance Society" that caused heated discussion because it was too similar to a Korean hip-hop competitive reality show "Street Girl".
The positioning of "Great Dance Club" is: the first domestic women's dance club selection reality show, the contestants will compete for 3 awards - the strongest dance club leader, the best dance work, MVP choreographer. Wu Qinggong, a non-famous entertainment critic, pointed out that "The Great Dance Society" intends to invite Chen Weiting, Liu Yuxin, Song Qian, and Li Yongqin as mentors.
Every time a dance variety show is launched, Yang Yang's fans will be very much looking forward to it, and they hope that Yang Yang can serve as a mentor for dance variety shows, after all, Yang Yang is a dancer, but Yang Yang has too few opportunities to show dance. Coincidentally, Yang Yang was interviewed not long ago, just to explain why he did not participate in the dance variety show.
Yang Yang said: "I don't have enough time to practice, so many years without contact, for me, in dance, I am already an outdated person." In this case, I participated as a mentor and a judge, and I felt that I did not respect the people who participated. To this day, there are still dance variety shows to invite Yang Yang, and Yang Yang's team also encourages him to participate, but he refuses.
Indeed, Yang Yang has not danced for many years, his skills are a bit rusty, and he is responsible for the contestants. The 4 mentors invited by "The Great Dance Society" have recently been dancing: Chen Weiting is the mentor of "Blood Street Dance Troupe" and "Next Station Legend", and Song Qian is the mentor of "Blood Street Dance Company", "Next Station Legend" and "Creation Camp 2021".
Liu Yuxin is the captain of the active women's group THE9, debuted through "Youth with You 2", and she has also participated in many dance variety shows in recent years, such as "This! It is street dance" and "The Masked Dancer King", etc., dancing is her strong point. Li Yongqin is a member of the active boy band Weishen V, NCT, NCT U, superM, and dancing is his daily job.
"Dance Student" also planned to invite Liu Yuxin to serve as a mentor with Tong Liya and Jin Chen before, but because of the schedule, Liu Yuxin withdrew, and the program team found Meng Meiqi to replace, hoping that Liu Yuxin would not quit this time because of the schedule. Tong Liya and Jin Chen are also dancers, and they have many opportunities to dance, at least more than Yang Yang.
Nowadays, the most popular dance variety show in China is "This! It's hip-hop", and no other show can shake its status. Hunan Satellite TV did two seasons of "Dance Storm", which was not done this year. Oriental Satellite TV did "Dancer" last year, but this year did not do it. Jiangsu Satellite TV has done two seasons of "The Masked Dancer", and I don't know if it will continue to do it next year.
Discussion: Who do you expect to be the mentor for The Amazing Dance Club?
