“Nugu” Boy Group Member Goes Viral For Insane Dancing Skills
A newly debuted boy group has caught the attention of international netizens, all thanks to one member’s unbelievable dance skills.
The group in question is XLOV, a four-member ensemble that debuted on January 7, 2025, under 257 Entertainment. They debuted with the single “I’m Be.”
Two days after the debut, the group’s member Rui went viral on X (former Twitter) after fans posted a video of him executing a very complicated dance step during the group’s first live performance on Mcountdown.

Though the clip was barely ten seconds long, it reflected his extensive dance background. Rui, who was a former participant in the reality survival show Boys Planet, was well-known for his impressive skills in modern dancing, ballet, and traditional Chinese dance. He has been training in different dance forms since he was just three!
I am so serious I have watched this 10+ times I just can't get over how good of a dancer he is pic.twitter.com/cNDbScdvit

I usually don’t pay too much attention to new groups, but this dancer is extraordinary. Apparently they just debuted and their name is Xlove https://t.co/fNxNyCNKML

The fact that XLOV’s debut song was produced by another member, Wumuti, and the group’s “genderless” concept have drawn even more interest of non-fans to the group. It’s safe to say that many are now looking forward to what comes next from this exceptionally talented quartet.
