Why would a significant number of Korean men dress as Stormtroopers, head out to the streets, and do a dance routine popularized by some Korean girl group called Wonder Girls? I have no idea, but I do know that of all the wacky things I've seen people in Stormtroopers costumes do over the years, swaying femininely and grabbing their own asses ranks among the creepiest. Infinite thanks to Stina for the tip.

My girlfriend got me addicted to k-pop and rock. Very much a fan of Cherry Filter. I'm always surprised at how many songs I think are happy based on the way they sound and she tells me that are sad.

They are standing remarkably steady considering how drunk they must be under those helmets...
Thank god they weren't sing too. I'm not ready for Empire Idol.

Now see, this should have made it into the movies.
*Jedi Mind Trick* You feel compelled to dance like a Korean girl group. You will take no notice of these droids.

im going to comment on how bat shit this is...
where did they get those stormy suits? I mean, those look really good. Not as good as the orginal stormtrooper armor designer, but good enough.

I think what I find the most disturbing is that they obviously did this multiple times in different locations. Is once not enough for them??

They do crazy public displays of K-Pop all the time here, but I've never seen it done with armor...that was great, thanks.

Why do they do it? So that you will make them immortal.
The funniest thing is, in most of those shots the crowds aren't paying them any attention. In Japan something like this happening in the street is boring!

this video shows that star wars fan lovin is universal and some time disturbing any where for the guys must have really been drunk to do that dance not once but twice and would hate to see what the storm troopers outfits look like after they were done dancing

See, this is why Stormtroopers can never hit anything. Just look at what they spend all their time doing!

If this is the most disturbing thing you've seen storm troopers doing, you haven't been to enough conventions.

Holy shit. That song just happens to be the primary cause of Last Song Syndrome here in the Philippines. I've done my goddamned best never to listen to that song in full, but now -- but now... Even the worst FFFs never made me feel this way. I'm crapping my drawers as my nerdy heart implodes with unimaginable joy. Fuck you, Rob. Fuck you.

Sweet Zombie Jesus! It goes without saying that this clip is more entertaining than THE LAST THREE SW MOVIES COMBINED. What amazes me just as much is---how did all these people manage to commit to this thing long enough to make it happen? In my misspent youth, I was in a Loser---uhh--Garage Band, there were only four of us, and we could never even agree on what to have for lunch, let alone get our shit together well enough to pull off---well, anything! Kudos, wacky Koreans!

Someone needs to introduce Koreans to velcro so that their tummy armor stops popping out over the chestplate.

I always wondered what happened to the Stormtroopers between the death of the Emperor and the whole "restoration of balance and peace". I mean they had a whole system of government that had to have taken time to dismantle even with Palpatine/Vader gone. I guess it's like being a senior in school, in that with the end approaching, they can slack off and let their hair down 'til they reach the finishline. So on behalf of my ten-year-old self, thank you, Rob. Now I know what they did with that time. Now I know...

I never thought about having sex with a stormtrooper...This may have planted that demented idea into my subconscious. That's so fucking cool!
