Last Wednesday, April 24th, our Talent show took place, filling the room with a captivated audience eager to witness the incredible talents of students ranging from middle school to high school. The showcase was a resounding success, featuring a diverse array of performances that left a lasting impression. From enchanting vocal performances to powerful dance performances, our talent show truly had it all. 


Each act was met with thunderous applause and cheers from the audience, creating an electric atmosphere. Before the show even began, we were treated to a delightful surprise act by Mrs. Stanley. She hilariously demonstrated how to prepare for a talent show by taking on the "No-Hands Challenge." Ms. Raegan served as her hands, blindly applying makeup, which resulted in uproarious laughter and excitement from the audience. 

The first half of the show kicked off with an exciting dance performance by Coach Sin and his team. The audience's excitement could not be contained as soon as they danced to the upbeat rhythm of "I'm Just Ken." Their routine elicited both cheers and laughter, setting the tone for an unforgettable evening. Following that, Da Eun Im took the stage, with a musical performance that brought a special song called "Sweet Serenade" to life. The audience couldn't help but clap along, enjoying the performance. 

Next up was Selena Cui, who delivered a wonderful cover of a beautiful and melodious Chinese song. Her voice resonated throughout the room, leaving an impression on everyone. To close out the first half of the show, the AP STATS students took the stage, continuing the legacy from last year with a cool and upbeat dance that aimed to improve their grades. The audience erupted with laughter and excitement, thoroughly entertained by their performance. 


After a refreshing intermission, during which the audience indulged in snacks and refreshments, the show resumed with renewed energy. Borynet Chen and Rayana Chen delivered a heartwarming performance, singing "Slipping Through My Fingers" while a compilation of students' baby pictures played in the background, evoking nostalgia and warm sentiments. It was a truly remarkable display of musical talent. 

The momentum continued with a dynamic dance performance by Bo Min Kim, Ha Eun Jeon, and Mincheol Choi, who danced to the energetic tune of "Fighting" by Seventeen. The audience was captivated by the energy of MCee Mincheol. Following this act, Hyulri Jee and Hyowon Kim took the stage, enchanting everyone with their rendition of "Fate" by G-idle. Their harmonious and powerful voices filled the room, leaving a lasting impression. 

Lastly, the Dance Club delivered an amazing performance that earned them the audience choice award and the judge's best performance award. They showcased their talent through a powerful compilation of songs, including "Hype Boy," "Fantastic Baby," and "Born to Be." Their performance left the audience and judges in awe, a fitting finale to an unforgettable night. 


The Talent show provided an incredible platform for students to showcase their abilities and gain recognition within the school. The energy that filled the room was infectious, with the audience showering each performer with applause and support. It was a truly special evening, allowing us to come together and celebrate while momentarily forgetting about the upcoming exams. 

Additionally, we must extend our appreciation to the student council members and EmCees whose unwavering dedication ensured the success of the entire talent show. Their hard work and commitment were instrumental in creating such a memorable event. We sincerely thank everyone who attended the talent show and supported our talented students.
