Jay Park's choreography for "Know Your Name" comes under fire

Posted by mintpepsi1 pt Friday, February 17, 2012



Jay Park's choreography has come under fire for being too provocative.

On February 16th, Jay Park performed his new song 'Know Your Name' on Mnet's 'M! Countdown'. While this comeback performance was noted for being fresh and exciting, it's also drawn criticism for being too sexually suggestive.

The dance in question revolves around a female dancer, who performs body waves against Jay Park's body. The routine, which Jay himself has named as the 'playing with fire dance', was said to be sexier than HyunA and Hyunseung's 'Troublemaker' dance.

In response to the controversy, his company released the following statement:

"We are just expressing a dance that fits with the concept of the song. We do realize that there is a controversy regarding the sexual nature of the dance, but when the entire performance is taken into account, we are sure that the controversy will disappear."

Check out the performance below, and tell us if you think the dance routine is "too sexy".
