Mnet's "Street Dance Girls Fighter" returns for its second season on Tuesday night, featuring a notable expansion in its participant demographics. Unlike the first season, the program now includes teenage dancers from abroad, introducing a diverse range of talents between the ages of 13 and 18.
The decision to include international dancers stems from the belief that dance serves as a universal form of communication, particularly in the context of language barriers. With the global popularity of K-pop, the producers sought to explore how dancers from different countries would synergize with their Korean counterparts, as explained by the program's producer, Hwang Sung-ho, during a press conference in Seoul.

A significant departure from the inaugural season is the inclusion of individuals not affiliated with dance crews. Participants will collaborate with mentors, drawn from Mnet's dance competition shows "Street Woman Fighter" and "Street Woman Fighter 2." The mentors include Lia Kim, Lee Yu-jeong, Harimu, Bada, Rusher, Tether, Aiki, Sung Ji-yeon, Odd, Kirsten, Latrice, Audrey, Gaby, Lian, Simeez, Funky Y, Redlic, Waackxxxy, and Yoonji.
Expressing a sense of responsibility, Lia Kim emphasized her commitment to helping the girls grow as dancers. Aiki shared insights from her own experience on "Street Woman Fighter," expressing a desire to guide the participants to a fulfilling journey on the show.
Producers and mentors praised the heightened talent and unique characters of the second season's participants. They highlighted the potential for these young dancers to become stars, drawing parallels to the success of past contestants. The emphasis on healthy competition and communication, especially in the face of language barriers, adds an intriguing dynamic to the season, according to producer Jung Kyoung-wook.
