The other thing is I hope that they will not take there sweet time trying to change California Adventure over to a more Disney theme.

That said, this presentation is pretty underwhelming, IMO. I watched the show for about 15 minutes last week, and it all seemed to consist of step step wave arms, step step point toe wave arms, repeat ad nauseum. There just didn't seem to be anything to this. I've seen enough Japanese and Chinese dance to at least be able to appreciate the artistry. This effort from Korea really left me bored and puzzled.

Originally Posted By danyoung I'm not familiar with Korean dance either, so I really have nothing to compare it to. I'm not going to tarnish all of Korean dance after seeing this one troup. But sadly there was nothing there that was even remotely interesting to me.

All the other shows I watched were excellent and entertaining. (I especially enjoyed a group called Flower.)

For those who didn't see them they are kind of like a Korean all female 'Barage'. (Of course if you have never heard Barage then I guess that doesn't help that much!)
