People who couldn’t see her slip at all
👇
I skipped back, and watched about 30 times, not that I know about ballet, but surely I could spot a slip. NOOOOO, I looked at different parts of her legs, her body and still didn't spot it haha X She's perfect!!!, well, to an untrained eye......
287 likes and only 1 comment let me fix that
It’s right at the end as she’s going into the end position. 2:21
The slip is right as she hits her end pose at 2:21
It’s very slight but she hit the end pose a little harder because she didn’t have full control going down to the floor.
@@xeaux Oh my goodness!! I had to stop watching after about 30 times with my nose against the screen, I was getting so annoyed I couldn't see it!! haha You have a very good eye!! Thank you for the answer and replying also Xx
I have NEVER seen anyone do this variation the way she did it, so fresh and beautiful!
What slip? I think they just said that to keep the Fates from getting ideas. 😂
She doesn't just make it look elegant, she makes it look fun and joyful!
That’s so true
It's not just the extension, it's like an entire openness to her movements. The grace, the expression, the little "believable" touches bring the character to life beyond the technicality we've seen a hundred times before. Congratulations on a well deserved win!
Her face is just the icing on the cake. It’s constantly changing and she’s enticing the audience.
I love that you can speak Korean and English!! She is absolutely stunning!! Your channel really enriches my life!!
She's such a dynamic performer. It's confidence and charisma.
Thank you so much for having Seehyun Kim for this episode. 🧡
I love that you pointed out the difference between Korean and English. Turkish has the exact same grammar structure with Korean so English is hard to learn for most Turkish people as well but for Korean we only need to learn words.
Its funny how i, as a native speaker of a slavic language, find learning languages an easy task, because the grammar structure of the slavic languages is in general so flexible because of the cases and declensions that we can set the word order pretty much as we want... And that makes our brains more adaptable to learning any new structure)))
But at the same time, its more difficult when i learn languages with strict grammar rules because i must follow that specific word order and i have to study harder to memorize those rules...
Of course i can speak only for myself, but its something interesting to discuss)))
thanks for sharing your vision))) ❤
PASSION is the word that comes to my mind! I got chills watching her!! Esmeralda is one of my favourite variations and i've watched hundreds of vids, but she makes it different, she has done some little details that make her variation stand out!!
THANK YOU FOR THE DRAWINGS!
They help me see the differences in the shapes and sizes, which I am so interested in! It’s a big reason why I watch this channel!
I hope to see more of the “fittings videos” with the animated drawings. Thank you to the team for taking time to edit it this way.
❤❤
Cheeky might be the best way to describe her version. Fun and playful and a little humor. Beautiful. And it was very fun to see the difference between her old shoe and the one you picked for her.
I remember loving this dancer in the videos of the Prix last year! So happy to have news of her career!
She emotes so well... you can feel the dance.
aside from ballet content, I started subscribing to this channel because of how Josephine speaks, it's satisfying 😂 listening to her speaking Korean is refreshing too!! and I'm Indonesian 😂
Omg that is THE BEST variation I’ve ever seen of Esmeralda. Breathtaking 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I love hearing you speak Korean!
Thank you for doing another fitting video and for involving the dancer so much. It’s great to hear from the dancers.
Finally a fitting video!!
Came here to say this! I was getting tired of those reaction videos.
I LOVE THE FITTING VIDEOS!
And the drawings helped me visualize the differences in the shoes so much better. Thank you Josephine and your team for editing this video the way you did!
That was the most graceful performance of that I've ever seen
Me too.
I love it when they also get into the tambourine. Not only does she have grace, but musicality too.
I love your expertise with this. It's wonderful to watch a master at work - or even two masters at work!
I am a former professional, ballet dancer and I did not see any error at all. Great job great dancer.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
♥️She is such a good fitter and the way she explains it makes it so more interesting ♥️
My daughter in law is Korean and her family came here last year from South Korea when she married my son,they are expecting their first baby this week🫶 we love our Korean family ❤
WOW. Her dancing!!! 🤩
Skill, sass &... She OWNED it.
I would believe you if you said it was written for her - & i know better!
👑👑👑💃
She is SO lovely, like…she doesn’t look real. 😱 and I’m sure her English is 1000% better than my Korean. 💕
I love esmeralda so I'm so happy she won with it!
She's stunning! What a gorgeous perfomance! 💗
Her facial expressions really make her performance!!
This dancer is awesome. So graceful. Looks so effortless!
You worked a miracle there! I didn’t like her shoes at all in the clip you showed. The new pointe makes her feet look entirely different, breaking at the right point for her arch, and fitting better to the heel of her foot.
What a beautiful dancer 😍 I found it hard to concentrate on what you were saying because I wanted to just focus on the dancing. Absolutely stunning. Congratulations on winning the competition, very well deserved (although I’m sure the other dancers were awesome, too)
Such a beautiful dancer! Thank you for this video.
I had to watch this more than once. I tend to look at the feet, too, but kept getting drawn to just watching her. Oh my goodness.... beautiful! Then, I had to go back & just watch you two watching her. Priceless!
She makes dancing look effortless
Just another level!! Enormous talent!!! Thank you so much for bringing this content to us, Josephine!!❤❤❤❤
Seehyun looks so amazing with her ballerina bun!
She is great. SF is lucky to have her. Please update to include musical credits for her performance.
I had no idea that English is so hard to learn for native Korean speakers. I grew up hosting international students and our school district was particularly popular with Korean and Japanese students. Sometimes we'd get students from China or Taiwan, sometimes we'd get Europeans (my honorary sister who came back for my wedding is German!) and a good friend from high school who lived with a different family was from Mexico. By far though, the vast majority of international students in my school district and thus the vast majority living with us for various lengths of time were Korean or Japanese. Both sets of students generally already spoke very well when they arrived and improved incredibly fast once here.
It was such an interesting way to grow up, too! The district didn't allow two students of the same native language to be placed in the same home if they were staying for 8 weeks or more, which means in the summer we might have 2-3 short program students chattering away in the same language and we'd get to experience their language as well rather than just teaching ours, but this also meant that during the school year we'd have 2-3 students from different countries. There was nothing funnier to 16 year old me than sitting in the kitchen with a Korean, a Japanese, and a Chinese teenager while they all debated how to do or pronounce things that were common to them and then tried to use me as the tie breaking vote. I'm of Norwegian x UK/Irish x German ancestry. Whatever they were debating, it was usually only the first or second time I was hearing of it.
Beautiful! I love how subtle she is when she hits the tambourine. So many dancers I've seen really kick it! But not Seehyun. She is controled and that speaks volumes! Can't wait to see how she develops over the years! ❤🩰❤
Yaaaay a point shoe fitting! I missed these.
Also Seehyun is a GORGEOUS dancer omg.
I rewatched the end looking for a slip about 15 times...
I have yet to see it
it was STUNNING!!
same!!! I was editing this and slowed it down and I still couldn’t see anything 🤯
She was just leaning back a little more than she wanted, but it was so seamless that it was virtually impossible to detect
She's a beautiful dancer. Delightful to watch.
What a mesmerising dancer..and a face of grace !
The other day I was listening to a podcast about "swagger" in sports. They were using it to describe that point past a mere display of confidence but without crossing the line into full-on arrogance. I think that's probably a good word for the kind of dancing that "sassy" isn't _quite_ right for; it sure seems to fit what I just watched here!
I too love watching the Prix du Lausanne every year. Like you, I often watch the point shoe and although am absolutely NOT an expert, as a ballet afficianato, I often notice how the shoe fits and makes the dancer look. Her shoe does look like a perfect fit.
It’s a sassy dance…the character is seeking attention…so dancing sassy is the only way to do it. Too many dancers dance it automatically or too sweet. Brilliant, girl! Oh and lovely feet!!
Beautiful break in the arch with the new shoes!
I tried to learn Korean, REALLY tried, and my tiny brain just couldn't do it. I feel like it's a combination of everything that's hard about language for English speakers - different alphabet, complex pronunciation, crazy grammar. It's rough. Props to any native English speakers who learn Korean and native Korean speakers who learn English. You're much smarter than I am lol.
I've watched a lot of your videos but I don't think I've ever heard you speaking Korean! It's so cool that you can help these dancers moving here with transitioning and feeling comfortable. It's not easy to move to a new country
THANK YOU FOR THE GRAPHICS!!!!!!
Woah her musicality is off the charts!!!
I love her Esmeralda 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
She’s so amazing, I’ve watched her performance so many time
She really got a style and is an inspiration
And you’re an amazing pointe shoes fitter
I have seen some great Ballet performances, but I can honestly say that seeing the San Francisco Ballet perform at The Kennedy Center in Washington, DC was the BEST professional dance performance that I've ever seen in my life!-💗☺ Thank you, all!-
I will never get sick of these videos ever
More of these please!
What an incredibly elegant dancer! Wow
I love the pointe shoe fittings!!! You could also have a video with her showing how she preps her shoes (those are my favorites)!!!
What perfection!! ❤
My 10yo niece is in her second kiddo ballet session. At their recital last year, all the other girls looked nervous or worried - she had the same
"This is FUN!" look on her face as the young lady. I can't wait to show this to her!
She is amazing.
I love watching the two of you go between English and Korean, I live there and speak both languages, the nuances of what Seehyun says really doesn't translate well to English. And she is a beautiful dancer, wish her all the best in San Francisco ballet!
I need more videos of Josephine speaking Korean!
Thank you for the drawings to show shapes!
Not also getting to watch the wonderful performance and see the fitting, but also having a chance to practice Korean? Yes please 💘
Am I the only one who loves listening to Josephine talk in Korean!
Fitting! My favorite! 😍😍😍
Oh, my. . . the delays combined with the push upwards. I’m not a dancer so I don’t know the right words, but I know what I saw. It was new. It was interesting. It was dynamic. Wow.
Beautiful! I grew up calling them toe shoes. That's what they called them in class.
Incredible!
Her dancing looks great!
I've been sick for the past few days and have binged all your videos (I ran out,,,) but now I have more to watch!! yay!!!
That slip was so minute, you have to know it's there! Good job catching yourself! Awesome performance!
God even her slip was beautifully done.
Wow! I really hope she stays here in San Francisco!
Beautiful dancer❤ Freeds are so pretty but I can’t even squeeze my ultra wide shoes in there widest option…plus it’s so expensive…its fine I’ll just admire it from a distance! ❤
She was my favourite! My favourite person who performed La Esmeralda
Never heard you speaking korean in any of your videos..... Plz do it more often ❤❤❤
Phenomenal dancer! 🎉
Vaganova Technique is the best! Most difficult and most demanding. She is beautiful!
Omg I'm so earlyyy! Love you Josephine♥
She is so beautiful. I am also a dancer and I want to dance like her!!
One good word for her style is “panache”. Lovely dancer, good luck to her in her career.
4th and I love your videos so much!❤
Sa performence est vraiment réussie,elle arrive à ralentir et accelerer de façon tres lisible!
Performance
I'm part Korean and a dancer, I didn't know you were Korean!! That's cool :)
I have missed these❤
BRAVO!!!!!
Absolutely gorgeous
Never seen a dancer do the last pose so elegantly.
I just realized that the pointe shop baby is gonna be a bilingual lil ballet fan and that is somehow even cuter..??!
Would she have a little easier time not rolling on the sole in center if she had split sole shoes?
Pointe shoe fairy hahaha that should be Josephine's official title!
My brother was in prix de Lausanne 2024. There is so much talent there and it is so hard.
Omg first! Btw i love your videos ❤❤❤
Hi!! could you name the shoes that youre using during the video or in the description? thanksss
Is it jus t me or I love her
What kind of camera are you using please?
