Singer Jay Park will be joining “Dancing 9 Season 2.” He will be one of the dance masters of the Blue Eye team on the show, which is scheduled to premiere in June.

Already known for his dance skills, Jay Park is a member of the b-boy dance crew, A.O.M (Art of Movement). Just until last year, he acted as the honorary ambassador of the “R-16 Korea World B-Boy Championships.” He also joined his b-boy crew in a spectacular performance at the “One Hip-Hop Festival” held in last September and demonstrated his dance skills through his role in the film, “Hype Nation 3-D.”

“Dancing 9” is the first Korean dance survival show which premiered last year. The Red Wings team took victory winning 500 million won (approx. $470,000) and an opportunity to perform a solo gala show. The leader, Ha Hwee Dong received the MVP and took home an additional 100 million won (approx. $95,000).

The show currently continues to hold auditions throughout cities in Korea in order to find Korea’s most passionate dancers. It has been previously confirmed that Lee Min Woo joined the Red Wings team for the second season as the K-Pop dance master. The other dance masters of the Blue Eye team are yet to be confirmed. 

Season 2 of “Dancing 9” premieres on June 13 at 11 PM, KST on Mnet.
