Dancer Baek Gu-young shared his thoughts upon returning as a participant in 'Street World Fighter : Directors War' (hereinafter 'SDF').
On the 18th, a press conference for Mnet's survival program 'SDF' was held at Ellyena Hotel in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Attendees included PD Choi Jeong-nam, choreographers Nine, Lennan, Bada, Baek Gu-young, Baby Joo, Shimizu, In-gyu, Jung Min-jun, Casper, and Hash.
'SDF' is a new expansion of Mnet's dance series that sparked a 'dance syndrome' in Korea, starting with 'Street Woman Fighter'. While the previous series focused on the competition among world-class 'dancers', this time 'performance directors' who plan and complete stages take center stage.
Previously, Baek Gu-young appeared as a choreography master on the boy group survival program 'Boys2Planet', showing a strict side. In this 'SDF', he appears as a participant.
Baek Gu-young said, "Returning as a participant again, I feel sorry every day to the participants of 'Boys Planet'."
He added, "I am also spending desperate days just to survive myself, and I am sorry that I cannot understand their feelings."
He further stated, "Having tried being both a teacher and a participant, I think I have become a strict teacher who pushes myself hard, so I am working diligently."
Meanwhile, 'SDF' will premiere on the 18th at 10 p.m.
