, where he began his professional career. Joining Rivers Crew, he was able to earn a great deal of respect from the Korean b-boy community. He is most well known for his power moves and freezes.

Physicx became famous after the UK B-Boy Championship, where he won the solo tournament.

The style Physicx brought onto the floor was unique even in his own category: powerheads. He helped popularize many moves, including the elbow spin. However, since 2009, Physicx's style moved towards foundation as an expression of what Physicx has learned while being active in the b-boy field.

This shift in style has earned him more respect inside the breaker community as it focuses more on the musicality of b-boying, something he often neglected before.

Competitions

Physicx has been a champion of many international-level tournaments both as a member of a crew and as an individual. His most notable crew achievements include a R-16 Korea

Dancing Style

Until 2009, Physicx stated that his main focus was on power moves. He gained respect because of the unique style he brought to the dance as a powermover. Physicx has pioneered several power moves, such as different variations of air flares and holding a flag while performing a 2000.
More recently, Physicx has been moving his style towards foundation. Although Physicx has stated that he still enjoys the powermove aspect of b-boying the most, he feels that it is natural for breakers to move more towards foundation as they gain experience in the b-boying world.
