The Lamar K-Pop Club will hold a Random Dance and Performance event, 4:30-6:30 p.m., Nov. 15, in the Quad.
K-Pop club president Kennedy LeJune said the event as an evening of dancing.
“Choruses of K-pop songs will be played, and individuals who are familiar with the choreography can go in the middle and do the dance,” she said. “All of the songs on the playlist are by request, so everyone is certain to hear their favorite songs being played.”

LeJune said she is excited to see people come out to perform and have fun.
“This event is a special segment for our members to perform if they want to show off their talents,” she said. “I am a K-Pop dancer myself. I will also be showcasing my skills with a team dance and a solo, so I am excited to see what people show up with.”
The event is open to everyone.
Club member Rylee Miller said she is nervous and excited about performing,
“I will be performing ‘Supernova’ by Aespa with a few other people,” she said. “Me and my group have been practicing hard so I think we will do good.”
Whether performing or participating, Lejune said club events are a safe space to be one’s self.
“We are a strict judge-free zone, where everyone is encouraged to express themselves freely,” she said. “No dance experience is needed in order to have a fun time with us.”
Miller said she has been practicing so she can know a few more dances.
“I want to be out there as long as I can, so I have been practicing popular K-pop dances so I will be able to jump out there and perform them,” she said. “I also added some songs to their playlist of dances I already know.”
LeJune said she hopes people will wear clothes inspired from their favorite idol’s wardrobe.
“The dress code for this event is that there is no dress code,” she said. “I will say dress in athletic clothes if you’re planning on breaking a sweat.”
Since becoming an official K-Pop Club in January, Lejune said the group has organized more than 10 successful events.
“This is our second Random Dance Play we have hosted, but this one is even more special because it is open to the public,” she said. “We want this to be a community event, which means anyone in the 409 is more than welcome to attend. We look forward to seeing all the great performances.”
