So I kinda thought this during “Burn” but with “Icarus” I’m sold.
It looks like Icarus era is a big win for them, and I can see it. Apparently their extended length MV is a hit, at 4M views in 2 days https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-bEGflpV9k.
I think we have a couple looks at the group choreo from music shows, https://youtu.be/4gbXkU1j54A and https://youtu.be/qNSNPxnla1U
Here’s “Burn” at a local news show https://youtu.be/_mPRQRSRh2M it’s slight potato but I wound up really liking this small stage, close to static camera view.
Just sharing what I’ve noticed from “Icarus” as not really a dance/choreo person but seeing a lot of details I like:
- Very flowy, very elegant, quick, feels precise. Most of the arm motions carry through into the wrist and hand position.
- It has some concept nods like bow and arrow and angel/wing shapes.
- I’ve felt the girls have decent stage presence instinct with winks and nods and stuff.
- Pretty complex with a lot of use of the stage space instead of being sync intensive. There’s a lot of motion going on all the time.
- Some of these moves with touch down to knees and back standing up are not too easy, like I don’t think every kpop dance group could get this one. This is interesting to me because didn’t they all debut in gen3, like, before the bar got really high with kpop girl group dance? They had to work their butts off for this lol
