Thrust into the limelight: Local breakdancing talent vying for the top accolade with support from Hysan

Breakdancing, part of street culture, has been added as one of the new sports in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

Tucked away and concealed deep in the concrete jungles of Hong Kong are numerous pools of hidden talent. Millennial B-Boy Think, who represented Hong Kong in the 2022 Paris National Breaking Championships, is one of the elite local breakdancers. Over the past years, B-Boy Think has received numerous awards from local and overseas breakdancing competitions, ranking first during the local qualifiers for the Olympics in 2021 and 2022. Shortly departing for Seoul in South Korea to participate in the 2022 WDSF World Championship Breaking, B-Boy Think has been training hard to enhance his skills, striving to bring glory to Hong Kong.

Dedicated to supporting local athletes, Hysan organised the “Cheering for Hong Kong B-Boy Think” Event on 11 October at Hysan Place to cheer on local breakdancers representing Hong Kong on the international stage. "Good Job Brothers," the breakdancing group B-Boy Think is a part of, was invited to put on a Flash Mob to mark their teammate’s final performance before travelling to Seoul, attracting large crowds of people and breakdancing lovers who came to show their support.
