The World of Street Woman Fighter (WSWF) concert electrified 5,000 fans at Seoul’s Jamsil Arena on September 7, turning the venue into a massive celebration of dance, music, and fan energy.
After RHTokyo member Rena shared her heartfelt thoughts in Korean, the audience erupted with cheers, chants, and glowing light sticks, sustaining three hours of pure adrenaline. Every “Ready?” from the MC was met with a thunderous “Fight!” as the performances unfolded one after another, filling the hall with explosive energy.
Korean crew BUMSUP wowed the crowd with a stage inspired by traditional elements like sangmo spinning and taekwondo kicks, earning praise such as, “It feels like KPop Demon Hunters came to life.” Later, the crowd celebrated dancer Aiki’s 36th birthday with a surprise on-stage moment.
Proving the global reach of the franchise, Australia’s AG SQUAD delivered a powerful live version of the viral “Soda Pop” challenge, winning loud ovations. Initially, the roaring music and shouts felt overwhelming — like being drained of energy — but as fans danced, shouted, and sang along with every beat, many described the experience as the opposite: they felt recharged and energized.
The post-show “farewell ritual” extended the warmth, as fans waited in the parking lot to gift snacks, plushies, and request autographs and photos from the dancers.
Street Woman Fighter, first launched by Mnet in 2021 and followed by a second season in 2023, evolved into the global competition World of SWF with crews from Korea, Japan, the U.S., Australia, and New Zealand. Riding this global wave, the concert series kicked off in Seoul and will continue with stops across Korea, including Busan (Sept. 13), Changwon (Sept. 21), Daegu (Oct. 3), Daejeon (Oct. 11), Incheon (Nov. 1), Cheongju (Nov. 15), and Suwon (Nov. 22), extending the excitement through the end of the year.
