DAY 21
After Midnight

This song........this SONG. It is so impossibly hard to have /just one/ favorite song but this is such an addicting track of theirs that I think it has to be. I feel like it perfectly encapsulates all of my favorite qualities about ASTRO's music and to me was the perfect concept for them. Back when the song first dropped, (first of all, I taught it in class! lol) I filmed this dance video really late at night (after midnight confirmed) in my garage, so to make it a little different this time I added on the ending choreo as well!

------------------------------------------

Welcome to Day 21 of my side quest to learn (nearly every) ASTRO choreography!

This is something that I have talked about doing for a long time, but it can be really challenging to get going. I'm sure many others can relate, but I put a lot of pressure on myself to do well and the idea of trying to dance just like someone I idolize so much seemed like a recipe for disaster. I had actually attempted to learn quite a few of these in my room over the years, but would get discouraged and never finish or document them anywhere.

I'm grateful to K-Pop-Up which allowed me to try learning/teaching a few songs of theirs post-2020! I even convinced enough friends to complete an entire dance cover of Candy Sugar Pop when it was released!!
I thought there would be an infinite amount of time, that I had found the best group, that they would be together for the long haul, that I would get to enjoy their music for years to come... 2023 hit me like a ton of bricks.
The one that I admired the most...

I cannot for the life of me communicate what I'd like to in this moment, so I will instead cut this short and thank you all for your patience as I bombard you with content this month. I wish that I had done this sooner on even the slightest chance that he would have seen it and known that I was grateful to him, and all of ASTRO. Thank you∼
