Korean subs are now up!! Thanks to two lovely people, one of whom gave the initial translation of the video and one of whom edited and proofread. Unfortunately, because of the way the subs were published (a mistake on my part), Youtube will not credit the translators by their Youtube usernames. Many thanks to @chbserious on Twitter. If our other translator would like to be credited, please leave a comment or DM on Twitter!

Mashup credits: @iamalostwhale , @Lucio , and of course NCT U and NCT 127

Go check out @iamalostwhale 's work here on Youtube. She's amazing!

And of course, fantastic camerawork goes to ‪@devotee9571‬

FAQ's
1. "How old are you?"
A: 19 (female)

2. "Can you analyze _____?"
A: I get this a lot, especially for BTS. Unfortunately, it's most likely I will not analyze anyone outside of NCT. I am an Nctzen only, and the reason I can make these videos is because I'm highly invested in NCT. I've watched hours of their content, and I'm familiar with the way they move. I just don't have the knowledge or the interest to do other people. But it's possible I could do other groups if I am interested enough.

3. Why are many of your ballet clips from Russian ballet?
A: There are a variety of reasons, one being copyright. Companies like the Royal Ballet are super strict on copyright (I know from experience). I also like to use Vaganova because (1) I'm a fan, and (2) they're the only school that posts their exams online.

4. "When is the next video coming out?"
A: Whenever it does. I don't have a fixed schedule.

5. Can you slow down? The words go by too fast.
A: I definitely take into consideration the length of time that is needed to read the text, but I have limitations. I edit according to the music and the length of the clips I have. It's a very painstaking process, and sometimes the words don't appear for as long as I would like them to.

6. Do you do any other genres of dance besides ballet.
A: No, I only do ballet. The opinions expressed in my videos come from my discipline (ballet), and may differ from dancers in other genres.
