EXCLUSIVE: #SEVENTEEN Blows The Audience Away At Comeback Showcase "Al1"https://t.co/RBWnyQe4NU pic.twitter.com/IdE7dKM0vJ

— Soompi (@soompi) May 23, 2017

- Wanted to show the emotions of a boy experiencing sorrow for the first time
- Hoshi was inspired not only by modern dance, but also by things that aren't related to dance (boy was inspired by street lights)
- Have an easygoing atmosphere when they work on music and actually collide more when deciding what to eat or who'll have to clean
- Their key to great teamwork is constant communication
- Al1 is the first part of the "2017 SEVENTEEN Project"
- Say it's an honor to be grouped with EXO and BTS as EBS
- S.Coups: "Our biggest rivals are our former selves."
- Made a promise to take their shoes off and dance barefoot if they win a music show

Their new choreos are so damn beautiful, all sharp and smooth at the same time. What are your favorite moves?

I looooove the choreo for this comeback. My fave part is near the end where they all drop to their knees like that during jeonghan's part. Also the street lights bit. Also woozi's solo dance with the rest in a square.

And in crazy in love I like the hashtag magician work of hoshi turning into jeonghan.

Sorry for all the edits I just keep remembering things I love

[juhli.livejournal.com]

I'd be floored if the theory of Seungkwan wearing blue during the square part because they wanted to do a gradient from white to blue is true :D

[kyulkyung.livejournal.com]

the crazy in love choreo has added 10 years to my life, i love musicalteen.

[cuizy.livejournal.com]

For some reason their choreo didn't look as good to me as in their mv... I'll give it another try when they perform on music shows when the lighting and camerawork are better

[yoonjeonghan.livejournal.com]

Yeah I think the lighting in the mv made it look so much better but it's nice being able to see it in full without the cuts. I can't wait for the dance practices

[fandangopink.livejournal.com]

i looooove crazy in love choreo. they gave wonwoo the spotlight so im very okay with that lol

i can't wait for their comeback stage

also during the showcase woozi said "bright boys can't be happy all the time" when the mc asked abt their concept lmao

[rawfudge.livejournal.com]

and then seungkwan was quick to chime in being like "but we'll always be happy don't worry!!! :)))" to appease the fans lol it was cute

[cosmicjam.livejournal.com]

I was so impressed by the choreo, it was so smooth and sharp. I really wish they would wear knee pads, there's thin ones out there that you can wear under pants.

The little we saw from the Swimming Fool choreo I loved! I'm guessing they're saving those performances for their concerts. Also I hope they're able to get some rest b/c a couple of them look so worn out, like Jun and Jeonghan's faces look so thin

[juhli.livejournal.com]

yeah, i hope they are already wearing them because scraped knees always take so long to heal, especially when you do choreo like this every day.

They definitely looked tired during the reporters showcase but seemed a lot more energized during the later showcase. They probably haven't slept for two days at that point, what with KCON Japan on the 21st, basically sleeping on their feet on the way to the airport the next day and then nonstop practicing till it was time for the showcase.

I also hope they get some rest, they usually say that they are paying more attention to bringing energy to the stage so they don't overdo it with practice.

WOW. WOW. Crazy in Love just got so much better to me seeing that Choreo. That little wiggly move in that is great.

I am falling so hard for everything seventeen right now- I already thought I had fallen hard but this comeback has seriously made me love them more than I thought I could.

Also, today I was talking to chaehocheol and legitimately started tearing up thinking about the Dont Wanna Cry choreography. I'm not a big choreo person, I care more about vocals and the music. But that is just such a beautiful piece of art. It goes wonderfully with the song, and the way that it's so delicate yet sharp is just amazing. I thought that maybe it was just the aesthetics of the music video too that was getting me all hype for the choreography, but I loved it even more watching a fancam from the showcase. You could see everything and it was just stunning.

[juhli.livejournal.com]

YES! I was mesmerized from beginning on with how they moved to the snaps. I can't wait till we get all the different camera angles and special versions. Did you see the 17/Diamond shape-shot they had today on Show Champion? SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!

[cakeeatingidol.livejournal.com]

I'm at work so I watched it but didn't reallyyyyyyyyyyy watch it. So when I get home that's what I'll do

[rawfudge.livejournal.com]

ugh the choreos are truly amazing (as usual). i hope i get to make it to their concert to see it irl.

i was reading through the lyrics and though the crazy in love lyrics sounded sort of fake-dramatic (stuff like "i've read about this in books but i didn't realize that's what it actually felt like!!") but it didn't truly hit me how tongue-in-cheek it was until i saw the dance and how smiley they were haha. it's so cute and i really like writer!wonwoo with his quill pen lmao

and the don't wanna cry dance is so amazing in full!!! i really appreciate woozi's modern dance solo thing, he's so tiny and adorable and just floats through. he looked like a bee flying across in the mv with his yellow and black shirt and i can't get that image out of my head whenever i see that part lolol
the streetlight thing and the triangle-knee part are also great!!

[juhli.livejournal.com]

IA!! The feeling of the song totally changes when you watch the performance :o And the writer-role suits Wonwoo so well haha. (Also, the quill pen....they really love to tease us with spoilers, we don't even realize are spoilers (https://twitter.com/honghonghong_17/status/867340111792324608))

I still feel like I haven't gotten to appreciate the full beauty of swoozi's solo dance, I need a steady cam with good lighting. I love him so much, he kills the part, it's so good ughhhh. And I love that the one director praised his dance skills so much and probably meant this part. (twitter (https://twitter.com/DougRiggs/status/863045802804920320))

[rawfudge.livejournal.com]

lol swoozi, i like that. i still want to refer to that part as his bee dance haha (woozi-bee? :3)

but yes agreed he kills it!! i feel like it would look really good if his shirt sleeves were even longer and looser, like taemin's goodbye outfits. (though tbh i am also very okay with these outfits (https://twitter.com/HOONA_com/status/867060427313692672))

omg yes i saw that tweet before and could HEAR hoshi shaking in his boots somewhere lmao. but tbh who wouldn't be floored by this solo dance

[sha197.livejournal.com]

The choreo really blew me away ahhh so amazing :')

[dropthecrates.livejournal.com]

i'm not fully sold on the song yet but the choreo is great as usual and i'm very pleased they're back (and with a gift of another fast pace performance, generous kings)

[agjingi.livejournal.com]

that gif is hypnotizing me 😍

[juhli.livejournal.com]

i know, it really was perfectly angled ♥_♥

[juhli.livejournal.com]

I also love this part so muuuch

[bubblyshades.livejournal.com]

yeessss joshua did THAT

[lesth.livejournal.com]

Crazy in Love is by far my fav in the mini, the choreo is so cute!
Just when I made myself a reason to not spend my money to travel to toronto ehh

[agjingi.livejournal.com]

i love don't wanna cry but the song severely lacks woozi, his solo dance part is glorious but not nearly enough
his part is too mellow vocally and i just love his voice and want more of it all of the time
also this era is delivering outfit wise, their show champ outfits DAAAMN

[bubblyshades.livejournal.com]

hi op!! I'm super late to this post but i wanted to join in and also support <3

i'm in super love with the choreo for dwc and crazy in love. tbh, i wasn't very into CIL on first listen, but the choreo and live perfs have definitely endeared the song to me and now i really enjoy just listening to it. the audio alone now evokes images of the choreo and i'm delighted ^^

for dwc, lord, i can't pick a favorite haha. I really love the "chajaka ya dwae" part i have in my icon, woozi's solo, everything during the choreo, the dance during vernon's part in the beginning, and joshua's part. like... everything lmao. kings of choreo, our seventeen. <3

[reader17.livejournal.com]

I am enjoying the choreo for this comeback. I think one of my favorite parts the holding hands and going through. (Not even show what to call it). Love the song! Thanks for posting the showcase I enjoyed all of the stages.
