Missions

[edit]

Mission 1: Hey Mama Choreography Copy Mission

[edit]

Contestants must learn and memorize two choreographies of "Hey Mama" by David Guetta created by Street Woman Fighter crews HolyBang and LACHICA. Contestants will then dance these choreographies back to back starting with HolyBang's choreography in groups of three to be evaluated by HolyBang and LACHICA. Each crew will then give each contestant either a "Respect" ranking or "Retry" ranking. A contestant must receive a "Respect" ranking from both crews to be able to pass the mission and be labeled a "RESPECT" dancer. "RESPECT" dancers may choose any non-"RESPECT" dancer as their opponent for the next round and label them as "NO RESPECT" dancers. If a contestant receives at least one "Retry" ranking, they must go back to the main area and try again. Contestants can only attempt to be evaluated twice. If a contestant receives a "Retry" Ranking on their second attempt, they are automatically labelled a "NO RESPECT" dancer. If a contestant goes to be evaluated and they have been chosen as a "NO RESPECT" dancer, they cannot be evaluated and must leave the evaluation room. This mission ends when 20 contestants pass as "RESPECT" dancers or when the time limit of 3 hours is over.

Mission 2: 1 on 1 Battle Evaluation

[edit]

Each "RESPECT" dancer calls out their chosen "NO RESPECT" dancer. They will compete in a one on one battle with the winner advancing to the next round. The one on one battle consists of two parts, a choreography section and a freestyle section. For the choreography section, the "RESPECT" dancer will create a choreography to "SMF" by Changmo (Prod. Czaer) and then teach their opposing "NO RESPECT" dancer. Both dancers will then compete after some time of practice and will be evaluated by the dance judges. The dance judges will vote on who will advance to the next round, with the advancing contestants receiving an "IN". Each round will either have one or both contestants receiving an "OUT". A total of 20 contestants will be eliminated.

Color key:

  •   IN
  •   OUT

Final results

[edit]

The final crew, Mbitious, will consist of 8 members. The members will be chosen through evaluation by a crew selection committee combined with an online popular vote.[3]

  • The Crew Selection Committee can award up to 600 points.
  • The voting period is from June 1, 2022, after the airing of the third episode to June 4, 2022, at 23:59 KST. [f] Scores are calculated as Views + Likes X 100. Contestants are ranked from this score and awarded points starting at 400 points for the highest score.

Final scores are calculated as the sum of the Crew Selection Committee's Score + Global Popular Vote Score

The final results were announced on the one-episode television special Be the SMF, presented by Kang Daniel.
