A Japanese woman, Ami maybe, won the gold. I really liked the Lithuanian kid who came in second, she was fun to watch. And I liked the girl from the Netherlands who came in 4th. Bronze went to China's 671, but her dancing struck me as a power performance more than an art or a form of play.
I didn't see Raygun till now because I only watched finals. Just didn't have the time to watch it all. Stupid music licencing rules causing things to disappear.
刘清漪, sounds similar to 671 if you say both in Chinese. Just in case anyone thought China was referring to their athletes by number.
The B girls went on by their own street names, 671 was the dancers chosen moniker. She was the first athlete to complete without an alphabetical name, I think I heard? The other Chinese dancer in finals went by a name.
Yeah I'm explaining her nickname.
