With the last voting round for ‘Be Mbitious’ set to end on June 4, we are now closer to getting the winners of the audition show. After the success of ‘Street Woman Fighter’, Mnet announced a male counterpart of the dance crew survival show. With several solo dancers showing interest in competing on ‘Street Man Fighter’, ‘Be Mbitious’ was formed. The audition show will help create a special project crew made up of solo dancers to compete on ‘SMF’.

And while there are only two missions and three episodes, it was pretty exciting and had some fun moments. We had hip hop dancer Tarzan giving a manly twist to La Chica’s choreography, while Noh Taehyun and Cha Hyunseung were praised for helping when Midnight Blue fell while battling. Pyoungya’s dedication was evident as he ran a fever because he practiced too hard during mission 1, while Pentagon’s Kino picking Kasper as a ‘No Respect’ dancer shocked everyone.

8 virals moments of ‘Be Mbitious’

Xhin collecting fanboys

Waacking expert Xhin was selected by Clown Maker in mission 2 because the latter thought the former would not be able to do hip hop moves. Well, not only did Xhin do them well, he hijacked the choreography and made it his own by adding girly moves. The final nail in the coffin was his freestyle when he danced to Britney Spears’ ‘Toxic’. Him pointing at Kino, Lil’C, and Brother Bin while the trio fought over who Xhin pointed at had K-pop Twitter in giggles. Xhin ended up becoming the first ‘No Respect’ dancer to win mission 2.

Brother Bin vibing with Gabee

Brother Bin’s ENFP personality was evident from the very first episode as the self-proclaimed attention-seeker was hyping and cheering Gabee while she taught the La Chica choreography. His sudden change to a serious attitude while dancing for the mission further charmed the judges. His friendliness knew no bounds as he also ended up teaching his rival Kim Jungwoo how to do a split in a day and befriended him.

Most-targeted Cha Hyunseung wins both missions

While Cha Hyunseung has been a dancer for years but his sudden popularity thanks to the Netflix dating show ‘Single’s Inferno’ and as Sunmi’s backup dancer had the other competitors underestimating him and calling him an influencer. He was the most targeted in all of ‘Street Fighter’ series with nine ‘No Respect’ stickers. But Hyunseung proved them wrong by winning both of the missions. Viewers were also amused with his ‘shower and shampoo’ move as he took off his shirt to show off his toned body and used every move in his arsenal to win the battle.

Wootae teaching Kuro

‘Be Mbitious’ had several teachers and choreographers auditioning like Wootae who also turned out to be a teacher at the university that Kuro goes to. Well, his teaching instinct kicked in and he ended up giving pro-tips while teaching his rival the choreography well. The judges joked that Wootae almost lost the battle because he wanted to help Kuro and even kept checking on him while they were actually performing. Viewers were touched when Wootae shared that he wanted to empathize and felt sad for Kuro when he lost.

Trendy Rock and Ohbody’s rivalry

Viewers were in for some drama when Trendy Rock shared he was in the same crew as veteran dancer Ohbody and that they had separated on bad terms. However, he added moves for Ohbody to be fair and ended up performing like a crew during the battle. All the participants also came up on stage to hype their battle while the two reconciled as Ohbody felt sorry that he won against Trendy Rock. Judge Honey J went as far as to change the rules and saved Trendy Rock as the 21st finalist.

Noh Taehyun going wild

From the very first teaser, Noh Taehyun of the K-pop group Hotshot caught everyone’s eye for his bold comments as he clapped back at professional dancers looking down upon idols. He was then selected by Jin who made a popping choreography and while Taehyun made a mistake, he caught up and played with the dance moves. His joking around and claiming he can learn choreography in 15 minutes while failing to do so in every mission had everyone amused. Taehyun’s krumping during his freestyle amazed everyone as he took over the stage and ended up winning. 

Yamakasi picking #1 popping master Crazy Kyo

Crazy Kyo was yet another veteran other dancers wanted to avoid as he was also a teacher to some of the judges. He was chosen by Mongolian dancer Yamakasi who joked he had no idea Crazy Kyo was the #1 popping dancer in South Korea. Even the judges could not decide who to pick as both did well with guest judge Kiel Tutin being the tie breaker and choosing Yamakasi as the winner.

5000 being an automatic winner

5000 is a professional battler who had won the last 50 battles he had participated in. None of the other dancers wanted to pick him and Ciz had no choice but to go against him because they were the only two participants left. Viewers already knew who would win as 5000 immediately learned Ciz’s choreography and even made it look like he had made it. His light and detailed moves were further evident in his freestyling and so Ciz was not disappointed when he lost and was honored to battle 5000.
