K-Night Africa from Warri emerged winner for the 2017 K-POP Dance Competition in the adult category and Fragiles Dance Crew from Port Harcourt emerged first runner up.

The 360 Dance Crew from Umuahia, emerged second runner up. The winners were awarded N300,000, N200,000 and N100,000 respectively.

Kyu-duk, in a statement on Tuesday said the winner and first runner up would compete in the preliminary round to qualify for the World K-POP Festival later in the year.

“The overall two best teams from this year’s competition, K-Night Africa and Fragiles Dance Crew will get the opportunity to enter into the qualifying rounds of the K-Pop World Festival in Changwon, Korea.”

This year’s edition of the K-POP competition recently held in Abuja saw seven dance groups competing in the adult category and seven others in the student’s category.
