I think these girls are awesome dancers, plus their hot! But they've been having haters and 70% of the haters are just calling them Korean wannabes. Would it make a difference if they were dancing to an American song? No! There is always going to be hate, especially in the Hmong society. It humors me how they want to break out and make a great debut of some sort, but they shoot down every talented person that they come across, it's selfish and absurd. We live in a "Cultural Melting Pot", we share and embrace other cultures along with our own, there's no need to be calling others names for trying something new and making a fool out of yourselves. We live in a diverse country and they think that such a simple thing like a song and dance means someone wants to deny their roots to become another. The least we can do regardless of culture is support each other to the fullest. I hope that we can all come to support each other one day, that is my dream.

On the contrary,as someone who is a professionally trained dancer of 4 years, these girls are very stiff. They are simply copying the moves and going through the motion. There's a lack of passion and oopmh to their performance. Behind the smoke and mirrors of their outfits and physical appearance, their performance to put it simply is awkward, stiff, and lacking. Their chest pops and rhythm flow are also awkward. Dancing, is not just dancing. It's an art form much like photography. They have not yet learned to distinguish haters from criticism. Their type of dancing and costume choices are not at all radical. They just need to choose am appropriate environment to perform, much like say, a club, not the Hmong New Years. Although they stand pretty, their approach to quote "breaking out" doesn't have to be so "in your face." Lastly, I'd like to agree with your point on it being unnecessary to call them "korean-wannabes." It's juvenile and essentially for haters. They are simply admiring and copying the trends of Korean and Japanese girls much like many Hmong teenagers admire American trends. Should we also label them American wannabes? No, of course not.
