RUEN: It¡¯s true, basically if you don¡¯t have anything else but power moves, you aren¡¯t complete. If you come out, not dancing and then you just jump into a power move even without your regular toprock but just jump into a power move and you don¡¯t freeze or nothing, it¡¯s not really that good. It¡¯s good to have what you have but you have to also learn from other stuff and do little stuff into your stuff. »ç½ÇÀÌ´Ù ÆÄ¿ö¹«ºê¸»°í ¾Æ¹« °Íµµ ¾øÀ¸¸é ¿Ïº®ÇÑ°Ô ¾Æ´Ï´Ù. ³ª¿Í¼ Ããµµ ¾ÈÃß°í ±âº» ž¶ôµµ ¾ÈÇÏ°í ±×Àú ÆÄ¿ö¹«ºê¸¸ ÇÑ´Ù¸é ±×°Ç Á¤¸» ¸ø ÇÏ´Â °ÍÀÌ´Ù.
