Why do the foreigners in Seoul not seem to know about Korean B-Boys?

Hello Dawn. I believe maybe it's more of the younger generation here in the US that is into break dancing. Many of them probably don't get a chance to visit Korea. Back in my high school days, break dancing was really big here in San Diego. I'm in my 30s now and I'm not sure break dancing is as big as it was back then. Actually I know how to break a little myself. I've seen a group called the Gamblers on Youtube and they did moves I've never seen before. These guys are the best I've ever seen. They were even shown battling (dancing against) American breakers. They won. I've actually seen the commercial for "Ballerina Who Loved A B-Boy" it seems like an interesting show. I would have loved to watch it but my time in Korea was a little too short.

I saw some a B-boy show in Walmi Do near Incheon. Didn't know they were called B-boy shows. Just thought they were break dancers.

Break Dancing is not a main stream activity in the US. I've seen it on TV in the US but until now the only time I have seen it live was in Walmi Do. If I knew that there was a scheduled B-boy show I probably wouldn't go out of my way to attend anyway. They are interesting to see but if I never saw a show again it would not be a loss.

I've never heard of Korean B-Boys. Lots of cultural phenomenons in one country will be unheard of in others. Besides, tourists usually stick to well-known, historical sites and events. Plus, and I don't mean to sound rude, but Korean culture, whether new or old, is probably not high on the list of foreign tourist attractions. In fact, I don't know anyone who isn't Korean who wants to visit Korea.

they arent. its just underground. you prolly wont even hear about the local jams and **** happening near you. why? cause they arent broadcasted on tv and ****.

p.s. please look up info before posting... KOREAS GOVERNMENT PAYS, YES PAYS, FOR THERE BBOYING. everyone there breaks. why the **** would they be kept from tourists?
