Hosted by KSI MMU Melaka, the virtual dance competition received a total of 33 entries from all over Malaysia and the event was also followed by more than 100 people during the finals round. Prof. Dr. Ho Chin Kuan, the Vice President of Academic and International Relations (VP AIR) who graced the event believes that such competition is a good platform for Malaysians to learn and understand more about the Korean language and culture. Through dance, the participants also learned to appreciate teamwork and to gain self-confidence.
