Sorry the 2nd post is later this week, I wasn't able to get it finished yesterday. :)
Back in March I wrote a post featuring dance covers of songs by Japanese girl group XG. You can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/03/dance-in-public-xg.html
Today I'm doing a follow up featuring more dances. They are covers of the singles from the group's debut mini album NEW DNA, which was released in September.
Note: As I've said before, while XG are Japanese, they are considered a global group and their singles so far have been in English, so that's why their dance cover videos tend to be listed as "Dance in Public" (and sometimes J-pop in Public or X-pop). :)
[DANCE IN PUBLIC ONE TAKE] XG- GRL GVNG dance cover- Mermaids Taiwan
First up is a dance cover of GIRL GVNG, the first pre-release single from NEW DNA, which came out in June. The cover is performed by Mermaids Taiwan, a dance cover group from Taiwan.
The Mermaids have teamed up with some other dancers for this cover, which was uploaded in August. The dancers are Mermaid members EE as Chisa, Yi cin as Juria, Ling as Maya and Mia as Jurin, plus ShuShu from Zoomin as Cocona, Coling as Hinata and Zoe as Harvey.
This is a one-take video, meaning it was shot all in one go.
