Battle of the Year 2006


Last for One in DC

If you have been following the B-Boy scene like I do, after editing a b-boy documentary film no less, you would be interested to know that last year's champion, Last for One, won 2nd place this year in the Battle of the Year 2006. Although they didn't win back-to-back, they proved themselves and the rest of the world that Korean B-boys are still reigning champs.

I had the pleasure of meeting them personally at DC three weeks ago, as they were invited to perform at a Korean festival. Although I missed their performances, but I found they were young and incredibly talented guys who matured beyond what the movie captured them two years ago.

The B-boy scene in Korea is exploding now, as so many world-class b-boy crews are show off some crazy moves and dances that are pushing its limits. I hope the documentary finally ignites the same passion in the states as well as the rest of the world to join this exquisite art form.
