The premiere episode of the highly anticipated dance competition show 'Street Woman Fighter 2' aired on August 22, and it certainly did not disappoint.

Building on the excitement and intensity of the previous season, this new installment of the show features a heated rivalry between two dance crews, a fight that has become all too real from the very first episode.

Lia Kim and Mina Myoung, who were once close friends and crewmates at 1MILLION, have seen their relationship take a sour turn due to a certain incident.

The bitterness between these two talented dancers was fully displayed during their one-on-one dance battle. In the midst of showcasing their incredible skills, Mina Myoung and Lia Kim confronted the issue that had strained their friendship after a decade of dance collaboration.

Mina Myoung opened up about the situation, expressing her disappointment, "She was like family to me, and I loved her as family. But I don't think she treated me the same way. All I wanted was one thing. Better pay for my base choreographies. But I never got a pay raise during those 10 years."

Lia Kim had a different perspective. She explained, "Payments for choreography are typically split half-half if created by a team. It's not like I took the full half for myself either. I didn't have any problems with Mina Myoung, and it's not my fault that the client specifically asked for me to serve as the director, but they seemed to think that I was somehow snatching up all opportunities from them."

Viewers watched the first episode on tenterhooks thanks to the intense vibe between the two prominent dancers.

They commented, "It became real serious when the topic of money was brought up," "I got so scared. I was shaking as I watched," "The other battles seemed lighthearted and enjoyable but this is real," "I can't watch," "I am relieved because they look like they reconciled from the next episode preview," "I am watching in hopes that they reconcile fast," "This is so scary," "I feel chilly," and "This season is so intense."
