Congrats on finishing your finals!
Nothing insightful to add, it's all been said and rehashed already.
No joke.
We can start a whole new round of comments going back to the "Hyoyeon's dance skillz: then and now" because we have Dangerous from Star Dance Battle and Smooth Criminal from...Star Dance Battle. Wait...
But . . . that's all from this year. LOL I mean, I guess we can see how she's maybe improved/not improved within the year, but I wish we had some standards between 2007-2009. Actually, that would probably be the "Boogie that Be"/"Breakaway" performance, since both were previously performed 2007ish

The reason why you don't remember the move at 1:29 is 'cause in SDB, they cut away to show Jung Ah of Jewelry (well, soon to be 'formerly of'), I believe. (Yep, just checked) One of the good things about the GDA performance is that you actually see everything, as opposed to SDB where they kept cutting away to show the other stars' reactions. However, it's no contest that SDB was a much better performance.
One tiiiiny thing that I noticed was changed in the Smooth Criminal performance is at around 1:42 in that link, Hyoyeon has moved to the back row already (you can see it better on the fancam posted here). In the SDB performance, Hyoyeon had waited until the slide to move to the back row [1:46 in the GDA link] - she took a step back prior to SooRi moving forward to finish the formation change and go straight into the slide. In the GDA performance, once they step out of the moonwalk, they do just a couple of steps to put Hyoyeon in the back row. Basically, it's a lot less awkward and Hyoyeon wasn't stumbling into the slide and

SDB just had pizazz and attitude and energy. I think the competitive element really spiced things up there. SNSD likes to win.
Yeah, I thought something felt odd about the front-to-back row transition part. I remember thinking, "Is something missing?" Someone definitely amended something in there--I wouldn't be surprised if they went back to the SDB performance(s) to review it before finalizing the GDA one.
And the outfit change! I definitely missed the black suits when I saw the opening of SNSD's part.
