Not sure if copyrighting dance moves is a good move... Even music gets inspiration from other places, art should be free to recreate and experiment with (within reason and not blatant copying). I can totally see Korean choreographers suing each other over particular moves that look similar. ESPECIALLY how do you copyright dance moves when so much of kpop and korean rnb/hip hop is inspired by OTHER CULTURES. Like are you going to copyright moves that were inspired from other choreographers?

Is it really possible to copyright dance moves? And I mainly mean this in the context that dance existed for centuries, was first a cultural thing and then evolved in many directions and people started borrowing from other people and cultures to create their own choreographies.
