▲ Synopsis 
A group of Korean dancers arrives in New York, filled with excitement. They begin dancing freely in the streets, each expressing their unique personality through movement. While enjoying the moment together, one dancer’s look draws playful teasing from the group. As the others go off to explore the city, that dancer follows a captivating tune into a bar, where a heartfelt encounter unfolds. The space soon turns vibrant with joyful line dancing, energetic music, and a surprising clash between performers.

The night unfolds in waves—security guards take over the stage with bold moves, followed by dazzling flapper dancers. As the lights dim, mysterious late-night guests emerge for a gripping and intense group performance, filling the stage with suspense and raw energy. Then, the tension fades as cleaners dance in the early light of dawn, bringing brightness and calm. A mambo celebration lifts the mood, eventually giving way to an electrifying Lindy Hop group number. In the finale, all dancers come together to celebrate the vibrant meeting of swing and K-culture.
