J Black’s ‘Neon’ Dance Goes Viral After TV Appearance

Choreographer J Black discussed A2O LITE’s “Neon” dance on the South Korean television show You Quiz on the Block.

He said he created the choreography with colleagues, rather than working alone.

Producer Lee Soo Man asked him to make the dance harder and more spectacular after seeing a simpler version.

J Black said performers Xili and Aijing mastered the difficult moves on their first day.

The choreography has drawn unusual attention for his work, which he said had often been rejected or gone unrecognized.

A clip of J Black performing the dance on the show went viral, and viewers praised his dancing.

The sources do not say whether he has been offered other choreography work.
