That Signature Move Everyone’s Talking About

It’s a masterclass in catchy choreo and confidence. STAYC even ramped up the visual appeal with on-point styling choices to highlight the dance’s dynamic flair.
‘Hipbattle’ Challenge: Fresh Moves, Star Power
What’s a K-pop summer without a dance challenge? STAYC leveled up theirs with the ‘Hipbattle’ edition—adding boxing-like moves and acting flair to amp up the ‘I WANT IT’ vibe.

The result? Unexpected chemistry and a whole lot of charisma dancing its way across social media timelines.
An Anthem of Self-Love in EDM Form
Musically, ‘I WANT IT’ is a high-energy EDM pop anthem powered by synth riffs and slick beats. But beyond the addictive hook and summery vibe, there’s a message: “Even my flaws are my strength.” According to STAYC, it’s all about embracing imperfection with confidence—and looking cool while doing it.
