Marsiling Primary Teachers Dancing To Blackpink Are S’pore’s Latest K-Pop Sensations

Teachers Dance To Black Pink For Marsiling Primary School’s Children’s Day Concert

Children’s Day celebrations were undoubtedly one of the highlights of our primary school years. Free gifts, school ending early and teachers letting loose were just some of the things we looked forward to.

Students at Marsiling Primary School received quite a treat on Thursday (3 Oct) when a few teachers started dancing to “Ddu-du Ddu du” by Blackpink.

Judging from the crowd’s reaction in the video, these bold teachers are well on their way to becoming Singapore’s own K-Pop sensations.
