Breakin' After Work

Introduction

What’s up, y’all! Today, I’m stoked to share my incredible journey at BBIC 2023, the mind-blowing 1-on-1 Breakin’ Battle. I may be a Software Quality Engineer in Korea, hustlin’ in the tech world, but when it comes to breakin’, I’m all in. So, join me as I lay down my passion for dance amidst a full-time career and show you how you can chase your dreams, too!

Balancing Breakin’ and a Full-Time Career:

As a full-time Software Quality Engineer, finding time for my dance passion can be a challenge. But that ain’t stoppin’ me! I make it a point to hit the dance floor with my crew two days a week after work, makin’ every moment count in my journey to the next level.

The Journey of Constant Improvement:

Sure, I ain’t a pro-break dancer, but who cares? Breakin’ ain’t just about titles and fame; it’s about the journey of constant improvement. Each practice session refines my moves, perfects my technique, and deepens my connection with breakin’. Small victories add up, and that’s what keeps me going!

BBIC (Bucheon Breakining International Competition):

My First Battle with BBIC 2023 was the ultimate challenge for me. I ain’t gonna lie; I got dropped in the pre-qualification round. But that’s the beauty of breakin’ – it ain’t just about the result; it’s about the joy of dancing in front of an awesome crowd, makin’ memories that last.

Inspiring Change: Tech Solutions for the Dance Community

As a tech guy, I couldn’t help but notice how the dance community could use better systems for events like BBIC. I got some dope ideas in mind to make the experience smoother and more enjoyable for dancers. My tech journey is just beginning, and I’m pumped to share it on breakinafterwork.com!

Conclusion

Chasing Dreams, Defying Expectations: BBIC taught me one thing – to never let anyone’s expectations define my journey. Whether you’re a pro or a beginner, chase your dreams with all you got! Life’s unpredictable, but that’s the beauty of it. When you try, you’re always winning something, and that’s what keeps me pushing forward.

Shoutout to the Jinjo Crew: Before I wrap this up, gotta give a huge shoutout to the Jinjo Crew for organizing this mind-blowing event every year! And to all the dancers out there, keep hustlin’ and breakin’ those walls!

Peace, y’all! Keep it real and keep it breakin’! 🤙
