MAMAMOO member Hwasa has just released her latest song “NA”, but it seems not everyone is loving her new dance moves.
While the song has been teased in several videos, netizens feel that it sounds more like something PSY would release than Hwasa’s usual style.
Along with the song, her dance challenge for "NA" has also caught attention, especially the part where she and her dancers grab their butts and bounce up and down.

Hwasa even did the dance with Kirsten Dodgen from Street Woman Fighter 2, but the reaction hasn’t been all positive.

A viral post on theqoo highlighted this specific dance move, calling it the "butt dance." The post has gained 85,000 views and hundreds of comments, with many netizens feeling the move is either “weird” or “not that interesting.”
Comments from netizens include: “Is this the best she could do?” and “The dance feels outdated.” Others said, “Her expressions while dancing make it hard to focus on the choreography,” and “What kind of dance is that? It looks so strange.”
Some people defended Hwasa, saying the choreography isn’t that bad and looked better when Kirsten Dodgen performed it.
One fan said, “Kirsten’s version is pretty good! Maybe it’s because she only touches the side of her hips?” Another shared, “This is better than twerking,” while some added, “The dance actually has a nice rhythm.”
Despite the mixed reactions, Hwasa seems to be sticking to her style, as some netizens noted, “If she keeps doing this despite the criticism, it must just be Hwasa’s style.”
