  • That girl is so good, but has a bad couple

  • omg, how can you not get excited when you sit there as the crowd?!?!!?!?!?

  • what was the last song?

  • Wow tough crowd...

  • either the crowd is shit or they are in awe.

  • what happened to kid boogie ....

  • @diegocwalk - Still dancing and is WAY better!

  • Right Side Owns!!! Pooping Hyun Joon SICK!!! Lol

  • right side owned

  • @AnonymousPopper i agree, left side was sick too though

  • nam hyun joon OMGGGG. his second part was sick. that spin was :O

  • hahahaha Hyun Joon and T's moves are old school but their smooth.

    Kana and Kid Boogie's moves are more new school but their pretty rough.

    And they DID have a routine but the routine was pretty dirty.

  • Comment removed

  • Damn rewatching this Kana was probably my favorite from this battle - clean and fresh

  • LOL kid boogie got smoKed

  • wow that ground move @ 3:56 is sick.. how the hell do you call such a move, and how do you do that?! :S

  • @wesjes It's a knee spin variation

  • poppin t be ridin that beat so smooth.

  • Ok -- First and Foremost I am taking all the stuff I have said in the past of Nam - and after seeing this clip he has earned my respect!!!

  • no that nigga still sucks

  • you know what -- I watched another clip of him and yeah --terrible --  this one was nice tho.... IMO

  • Yes, but its still a battle...

  • I think they're all good but, i'm sorry but nhj by himself just kills the other duo

  • he is terrible in this clip

  • hyun joon ripped that shit up hahaha

  • 3:50 was COLD!

  • I think koreans are great at keeping a continues flow of moves/popping sequence. They can go on forever but I really think they need to work on having signature taunts.

    I'm not saying I don't like the stuff they present, its great don't get me wrong but I feel they could stand out more if they have punch lines per say. Its a fighting ring for poppers and I think it would be better if they can pack a punch on each taunt. Its too friendly.

  • @crakglagin race has nothing to do with dancin lol. Dang homie!

  • whats the name and artist of the 1st song

  • Beat Box - Art of Noise

  • happen to know the name/artist of the second song? thanks

  • nvm, but since this battle was judged (im assuming) anyone happen to know who won?

  • so sexy! no homo

  • Poppin hyun joon's movements are just too smooth.

  • whats the first song  !!!???

  • Now after watchin this vid,,i like em BOTH.Kid-thats my lil homie.The girl with him had HEAT.The 2 two other dudes BROUGHT it-that slide was nasty.BUT-Kid and his partner had a routine.....nuff said.

  • To be honest with you and this may sound slightly ignorant but i dont take the EB's message as the gospel truth i beleive that as with everything in life the umbrella term popping has evolved from when it first started out, the dancers of today are technically better than most of the old school and thats how life goes. As time goes on generations get better, but the EB's beleive their dance is one dimensional and cant evolve, which i do not agree with

  • The new generation ( NGs ) are more into 'tricks' hand n finger tutsand limited space-movement. The Originals (OG,Oldschool) 'DANCED" when we pop.The Techniques are MORE than there...just take a closer look..And the EBs arent the ONLY Originals that have'truths'

  • @1976Robot Thats true in a way cuz people today think poppin is doin waves or tuttin. Like Mr. Wiggles said if u aint hitting on the beat u aint poppin.

  • well, the koreans did actually hit so.

  • Of course they did lol, Hyun Joon an Poppin T always hit hard!!

  • o was answering

    M10J10G10

  • doesnt sound ignorant at all to me. i absolutely agree with you. everything evolves over so much time.

  • the girl with kid boogie SHE FUCKING MURDERED

  • Does anyone know the name of the second song?

  • Zapp - It Doesn't Really Matter

  • Thanks heaps

  • Ay anyone know where I can get a copy of this DVD?

  • FIRST SONG IS BEAT BOX -ART OF NOISE

  • btw, can anyone tell me which is Nam and which is Popping T?

  • Comment removed

  • LOL I swear the DJ was fucking with Nam Hyun Joon & his partner at 1:50 during their set

    and people, please, learn to dance before leaving ignorant comments... there's a reason they hired competent judges instead of YouTube kids...

  • 0:48 too lmao

  • Kid Boogie didn't even wanna come out after Nam Second Set. They had to do a Routine to get with Nam Shit

  • I'll Tell you right Now just from the Pace off this Battle Nam joon an His Boy already Won, Within the First Two Minutes.

    They Just Had way more Poppin Moves. Go head, Get Down Boys Get on Down. LOL

  • kid boogie got it in the ass......

    nhj raped.

    he was more clean

  • nam hyun joon won dur....

    cleanest popping

    his ticking is sick

    and he def. had the most unique moves on the floor

  • Kana was ight!

  • Hyun joon totally owned that fellow...

  • Kid Boogie's style has changed SO much since this video. Just watch Co-thkoo vs. MGF to see what I mean. More of a waving style.

    Man I wish I was there to see this in person...

  • lol original american boogaloo versus asian style hip hop poppin =P i choose hip hop =D better crowd pleaser hehe

  • well that is no way the gonna win hyun joon with that dance moves XD

  • im sorry but, i actually think

    nam hyun joon like killed them.

    no offense for people who like kid boogie.

    i just thought nam hyun joon style was much better and clean.

  • nam eliminated those two no doubt ... this is an unfair contest haha joon on the tune!

  • this video has officially been ruined by childish "youtube" comments .... lmfao

  • I agree. They can't see that every dancer int his video is just an amazing dancer and that they're all pros in their own respectful way.

    Oh well.

  • Does anyone know the name of the last song please???

  • And they say Hyun Joon can't battle, shiiiiiet! He just ripped both of those guys a new one

  • hyoon joon was sssooo on beeatt

    kid booogie is tottaly outclassed

    if u hate on joon ure unmusical:(

  • who won?

  • i dont understand poppin in battles vs entertainment..how is it diffrent someone plz enlighten me??

  • Poppin in battles: Outdo the other popper, Show moves that are technically astounding

    Poppin for Ent.: Moves that look cool, Overall good performance, make audience excited.

  • alright thx im getting it alittle better know.but whats technically astounding..is it like being clean??

  • hmm means building up ur foundation well? dancing with skills

  • There really is no difference. People bash on Hyun Joon saying he is not a real popper because he is an entertainer and does not battle. But he has studied the culture, practices for hours a day, and has been doing so since he was in the 5th grade and he's not a REAL popper? Check the man's history before you judge him. And search him up here and sort the relevance by newest video and see him NOW.

  • its a Dacne off, ur not gonna be popping like u were preforming are u cuz thats not ment for battle, REAL dancing is for Battle , Funk style popping always beats technical. some technical are so dope they can beat Funk like Salah

  • And stop with this NHJ sucks and who is better, just watch the video. And most of you who are commenting probably can't even dance. Watching other poppers doesn't make you one. And realize people this battle was 05, its 2009 people have improved since.

    And NHJ said himself he's not a battler, he dances just because he likes to and its how he makes his living, who the hell cares if he took it mainstream. Yes there are many other poppers who are better but again, watch the video for the enjoyment.

  • YOU are soooo right man~

  • Thank you

  • You are so right ~

  • And thank you as well.

  • great comment!! also people don't even know hyun joon is a true STREET dancer the guy was actually homeless and lived on the street and dancing saved him.

  • a yeah? thats cool if its true.

  • I agree with your comment. Ironic that some of the biggest loudmouths are those with the least experience. Anyone on YouTube can be a critic...

  • dud u r right....i agree 100 percent i hate how every1 has to rip on the other popper bc they either hate them or like a dif style....its dif styles that make poppin interresting sum people do big moves sum people are more technical but its dancing and have fun watching it and respect other peoples abilities u know?

  • 3rd song is

    Zapp & Roger-Doesn't Really Matter

  • Dope shit!

  • Kid boogie doesnt even look like hes trying. Then again hes facing NHJ so why should he. People dick ride him so much only because hes a flashy performer. Kid boogie would murder him even worse now.

  • I don't see why people constantly say Hyun Joon's a bad popper. He's not. I do agree that people exagerate by calling him the best popper, but he has his own unique style.

    Nam Hyun Joon doesn't like to battle and you can see that in this vid. He likes to perform and doens't like to compete, why is it so hard for people to see that?

  • kid boogie is the truth

  • kid boogie is dope

  • AMEN MY BROTHER ..... kid boogie is the truth

  • haha i liked when nam got going, i usually dont like him but he changed my mind on this vid.

  • I'm sure no actual dancer is as disrespectful as some of these idiots on YouTube who CLAIM to know dancing. Every dancer is just doing their thing, I see no point in this "mainstream vs. underground," "sell out vs. OG" bullshit. I'm getting pretty annoyed with internet trolls and petty flame wars. Shut the fuck up and enjoy the videos.

  • Yes. I completely agree.

  • perfectly said man i hate it when people turn it into whos better and jus enjoy the shit....and yes ur right ther r so many people that dont even dance giving advise and acting like they know everything

  • BestOfTheBest

  • what is BOTB ???

  • just clear your thoughts about this, nam is a performer, but they are there for the competition.

  • acky gucchon kite, etc.. ye they are the best battlers but,, they are only recognised among dancers,,ok? its not because salah and NHJ is shit, its because they are SMART ok? i know that winning major competitions = good money but it is nothing,, like NOTHING compared to what Salah and NHJ earn by performing overground. NHJ is no longer just a dancer he's a moviestar, choreographer and a singer/rapper,

  • Comment removed

  • WHAT IS THE FIRT SONG PLEASE

  • art of noise - beat box

  • wth is bodypopper talking about

    and both teams here... are pretty bad lol

  • poppers like salah and pacman for example G it in battles as well as doing well in the commercial side of it with their participation in talent shows.

  • i have respect for Nam but i understand when peeps who pop&know their shit say hes lacking a little something in battles. No one doubts his ability, but where poppers like Bionic, pacman, j smoothe, etc. have developed&got better&more experienced every year.Nam has resorted more to the commercial side of it, like training korean stars, commercials, music vids etc.noobs usually see Nam&think hes the best out there. Nam is not the best out there.

  • exactly

  • NHJ is only impressive to non poppers. NHJ is to popping what chris brown is to krumping. a commercialized watered down version.

  • tatz a retarded critic, even though Chris Brown does suck at Krumping, Hyun Joon is an awesome popper

  • i disagree. i believe Joon to be an awesome performer.... but not an awesome popper. i'm not saying he sucks by any means. he's just overrated

  • hyun joon is 1 of the best poppers.. wat u on about..his style is unique.

  • yeah yeah. i forgot where i am. youtube is full of a bunch of NHJ humpers that are all on his nuts even though he can't compete in battles with the big boys... because the judges actually know something about popping.

  • lol.. wat big boys r u tlkin about.. NHJ is betta then all of them.

  • gucchon. acky. salah. hojin (oh yeah he did battle hojin and lost) hm...poppin zero... kite... j smooth...popula.... mike... of course theres wiggles and pete... the list goes on. NHJ gets eaten up in battles. he dances too fast for music, his musicality is lacking and he has no boog

  • ok.. 1st.. he should have 1 the battle with hojin..cuz hojin is shit.. 2nd the only ppl frm ur list who would probably beat him r salah and maybe jsmooth.. 3rd mr wiggles was very gd but not anymore cuz hez old.. 4th hyun joon duznt batlle he performs.. wach his performances 2 remind urself how gd he is.

  • Actually hyun joon beat that retard hojin..wat u tlkin about? he 1 that with ease!!

  • hahaha gucchon would stomp on NHJ so would acky. actually have u ever even seen any of those other poppers' vids? they all would stomp on him. you have to be kidding. and hojin's musicality is sick as HELL. and your right. joon is a performer. he choreographs shit to music and then performs it...which doesn't impress me. at all. and when he battles...its freestyle...and he loses....

  • lol.. all i can say is..if u think that hojin beat hyun joon in that battle u r CONFUSED!.. and yes i have seen acky and gucchon perform and there just like ordinary poppers.. people like hyun joon and salah have got there own unique moves wich makes them different.. also.. dnt tell me crap lyk hyun doesnt go with the beat cuz thats just bullshit.. if that was the case he wouldnt be a professional! how many vidz hav u seen of nhj? cuz i dont think uv seen wat he can do. wach 1 of his prfrmances>

  • lol i dont think you understand. performances and choreography don't mean anything. and yeah NHJ dances the same no matter what the song is. he has no boogstyle. he's one dimensional. and his musicality isn't on par with the new era poppers... i'm not responding to you after this. because you obviously just don't know what you're talking about. salah doesn't even really pop. he just performs and does tricks. thats why he gets beat by gucchon and acky who you call normal. anyway get off NHJs nuts

  • let me sum this down 4 u.. if salah and nhj were 2 battle ur bum chums gucchon and acky they would get fukd!! end of conversation.

  • lol... salah loses to gucchon and acky because he does the same tricks every battle and he's played out compared to them. NHJ can't even begin to battle them. their musicality and boog would eat him up... if you don't know that much i suggest you start to open your eyes and mind and go learn a little more.

  • lool..i thaught u sed ur not responding 2 me after this.. anyway i dnt care wat u think.. lool i didnt even know who those shit ppl were b4 u told me.. and dont bother writing bak 2 me after this cuz i aint gonna read it..jus delete it.. cuz ur confused.

  • LOL <---that's all i can say

  • Hyun Joon totally beated Kid Boogie

  • Good use of Art of Noise.

  • both sides did sick, NHJ was my favrite on this one tho.

  • This must be a joke post. Joon destroyed both of them. Even his sidekick was better haha. You do realize joon was the one wearing the hat right? Maybe you were confused.

  • nam huyn joon cleaned up his moves now, if you compared him from today to whats in this video you'll see that he changed into a different dancer.

    i'd like to see him battle today...

  • yup hes a lot cleaner now and has a lot of new shit too

  • it seem nam hyun joon style is more hard to do!

    i still like nam hyun joon!

  • i personally love NHJ style more then kid boogie. I think creativity is better then repetitive moves. kid boogie is good, but he doesnt surprise me

  • yeah, I saw him at homeland. Even so... slim boogie is better than him. More friendlier too... he's freaking crazy. Anyways, both of them are crazy what can I say :)? Seeya :D.

  • I met up with kid boogie last week on monday and his popping is on a whole different level. This guy is insane. I don't even know why he has to battle hyun joon, he has nothing to prove. I'm korean, and I love hyun joon as an entertainer... but his popping is NOWHERE close to kid boogie, slim boogie, pandora, waveomatic, shoon boog, aka kin, or anyone else. Even popping J is better than PHJ.

  • some of the poppers u name i must disagree and say are not lagues better then joon, waveomatic is a dope ass waver but ive seen hyun joon do every move that guy has done and would only say hes better at waving then joon, pandora she is a good tutter but if you really watch her she's not the cleanest popper, joon can even do leg movements ive seen that can match up to shoon boog

  • leagues*

  • Damn Kid Boogie scraped them.

  • First song is Beat Box-Art of noise.

    NHJ FTW! One of the best battles I've seen.

  • wat were the songs? can someone plz tell me

  • lmao i wonder who won =p

  • this is one of nhj best battles or?

  • Nam joon took over of course!

  • nah OMG the girl in the black holy shit man both crews hit the beats nice as hell

  • man good battle

  • mamn dem dudes n da black r garbage! dat lil asian kid n da white t murdered dat hoe!!!

  • what is the name of the second song???

  • zapp and roger it doesnt really matter

  • Nah, I think it's Beatbox by Art of Noise, actually. It's a remix though, so it doesn't sound exactly the same.

  • Wow...Kid Boogie was boring. Didn't see anything fancy and he looked stiff.

  • pace, timing, flavour, personality look for that!

  • Somehow it still doesnt impress many people compared to NHJ i guess :(

  • i just freakin hate kid boogie, his style is so boring. nam hyun joon is the shit.

  • Is that suga pop, with the afro?

  • yes

  • I thought so but was not 2 sure. Thanx man! :)

  • bad camera angel and it was too far back why did this person not zoom in? i could see any hits or tricks. I hate it when people put good battles with bad camera angles!!!!!!!!!

  • what is the name of the song????????

  • Art OF Noise - Beat Box 2

  • SALAH pro VIP poppin'...salah is king of king poppin'

  • salah huh? yo man you need to check out my friend Mike Watson he is the best popper in ATL and can get salah anyday. he is the true king

  • this crowd is soo dead...lols PHJ was killin it like crazy and not a single sound...lol

  • T has gotten way better man, joon is just another league altogether

  • Poppin T was on point.

    and im gonna learn that spin eventually.

  • cashbg ur retarded hyun joon improved so damn much since this

  • 3:57 WTF thats insane

  • can someone tell me what is the name of the second song

  • left lost so hard

  • hahaha kidding ?!?

    Hes improving everyday..

  • The reason why he doesn't look that good is because he doesn't like to do battles. He's a performer, one who loves to steal the show and in a battle he can't do that. So, Hyun Joon isn't a battler, he's a performer and he's Godlike at what he does.

  • thats exactly on point.

    Popping Hyun Joon is a performer not a battler.

    Popping Hyun Joon has a lot of crowd pleasing moves, and a lot of those moves of his can only impress people who aren't poppers themselves, like everyday people. Everyday people can't see the sloppyness of his popping, they can only see his insane crowd pleasing illusions.

  • i dont know if i would call his popping skills sloppy, but u do hav a point

  • i mean compared to other top of the line poppers lmao

  • I would say the only problem with your statement is that in any battle with popular figures, the masses are going to be the overwhelming judge of the outcome in any public discussion. In which sense, performance does become the battle.
