Everyone goes on about how sync Infinite’s dances are but the reality is any group can be as sync as them if they put in the effort.
The thing is that none of them do.
You see, I agree that any group can be as sync as them (if not more) if they put their mind into it.
But the reality is that they don’t. They don’t put as much focus into dancing in sync as Infinite does, and that’s where the difference is.
They don’t focus a major part of their training into maintaining their title of “dancing machines” or reputation of “almost perfectly synchronized idol group” that they gained since their very debut.
Whenever I learn Infinite is doing a come back (which happened many times, since they promoted the whole year) I always have great expectations in their dancing and musically. I always wonder what new key dance (scorpion dance, spiderman dance, seal dance, whatever) they will bring and if they will change their dancing style (I call their style the “one body” style. Like in BTD, during Dongwoo’s last rap, the members will move like puppets with strings attached to Dongwoo’s finger).
I have other favourite groups and they are all pretty decent if not great dancers and interesting choreographies but I never worry if they will innovate their dancing style, if they will still be as in sync as they usually are. With Infinite, I do. I always do, because after being in the Inspirit fandom since 2010, I know I can expect them to be dancing in sync.
I know the criteria to define what a good dancing group is different for everybody, and that dancing in sync does not mean you are the best dancers and they are not the dancing gods or anything close to that but they never failed to disappoint me. Not only do I have specific expectation and criterias (I don’t mean that I have better standards or taste) when it comes to dancing, but they are the one who made me have those more defined and stricter criterias (style, energy, presence, synchronization and so on) when it comes to kpop idols’ dancing.
