RED ISSUE was formed in 2016. We started as a dance group from our school and decided to create a reverse cover group of BLACKPINK, as we are all avid fans of the group. We have been competing since 2016 and have won some contests.
Our name, RED ISSUE, combines the names of two different dance groups from Thailand that we admire greatly. We chose this name to honor their talent and influence on our dancing.
In addition to BLACKPINK, RED ISSUE also performs dance covers of other girl groups. Here's our exclusive interview with the team!
How has your passion for dance influenced your personal lives?
We feel so much more confident, happy, and outgoing. It truly has been life-changing for us.
What is your favorite song to perform and why?
"DDU-DU DDU-DU" by Blackpink. We always remember our first-ever win in a competition as a group.
What are some of the challenges you've faced as a dance group, especially in the early days?
Some of the challenges we faced as a dance group in the early days were that, way back in 2016, when we were only students, we couldn't buy some stuff or rent a studio to fill our basic needs, most importantly the costumes. At that time, we were so financially unstable.
What is your typical performance preparation process like?
We practice during our free time, typically on weekends when we're available. We spend at least 4–6 hours practicing. We also listen carefully to our music, so we can nail every beat.

What advice would you give to aspiring dancers who are just starting out?
You must be brave. Don’t let them intimidate you (people or dance steps). Give every move all you have. Be fearless, but it’s very important that you know your limits if you think something is too difficult for you to try out. Don’t be afraid to ask lots of questions and to practice more than you think you need.
Plus dance has profoundly enriched our group's lives, fostering strong bonds through teamwork and mutual support. It's a creative outlet that keeps us physically and mentally refreshed, promoting joy and boosting our confidence as we achieve together. Additionally, receiving acknowledgment from others has overwhelmed our hearts.
