- The three concepts included Outdoor (Using outdoor locations), Structure (Using a structure as a prop), and All Gender (Inviting various genders). Following this, the crews were divided as such:
Outdoor | Structure | All Gender |
JAM REPUBLIC vs DEEP N DAP | 1 MILLION vs MANNEQUEEN | Lady Bounce vs WolfLo vs BEBE |
JAM REPUBLIC vs DEEP N DAP
The JAM REPUBLIC dance crew and the rising DEEP N DAP, led by Kristen and Mina Myoung, respectively, fought against each other in Outdoor Concept. Fans were excited to see JAM REPUBLIC rule the stage with the expertise gained from being a member of the Royal Family. However, their mission failed to mesmerize the audience sufficiently.
- Despite this, their passionate performance highlighting the dance fortes of each member in various locations, such as bleachers (Kristen: 282), running tracks (Emma: 361), and open ground (Latris: 374), won the hearts of judges. Their performance also incorporated the outdoor location within their dance as a part of it, garnering them +100.

On the other hand, DEEP N DAP chose to represent the South Korean heritage by mixing it with some contemporary styles. Their Mega Crew Mission performance highlights included blindfolds, Pansori music, and an excellent formation representing part of the Korean flag.
- JJ led their direction scores with 368 points, Mina Myoung with 356 points, and Downy with 352 points.
- However, this concept also seemingly limited their range of performance, such as the location was more in their background than a part of their performance. They couldn’t win the additional scores for the concept mission.
- Making the Street Woman Fighter 2 Mega Crew Mission (Outdoor Concept) JAM REPUBLIC vs. DEEP N DAP final score as such:
JAM REPUBLIC | DEEP AND DAP |
1117 | 1076 |
1 MILLION vs MANNEQUEEN
The two of the most powerful Mega Crew Mission performers, 1 MILLION and MANNEQUEEN, faced off in the Structure concept. There is no doubt that fans expect 1 MILLION to win this mission, and their scores hint towards the same.
- 1 MILLION’s Mega Crew Mission performance checked all the boxes, including a well-performed concept, storytelling, and highlighting of members’ strengths. It also captured the grace of swans with an innate strength, and the formation of the flower will be remembered for many more seasons of SWF.
- Their direction scores were led by Lia Kim with 392 points, followed by Amy with 388 points, and Harimu with 385 points. They also received a plus 100 for winning the concept challenge.
On the other hand, MANNEQUEEN gave a tough competition with their power-packed Waacking performances. Their Mega Crew Mission concept incorporated the structure prop, creating the story of classical performance, live orchestra, and musicals.
- Their guest dancer, LipJ, garnered much appreciation, and the highlighted part of aespa’s Winter with a battle of dark and light reminding of the Black Swan was mesmerizing. Not to mention the perfect conclusion of the performance by Redlic as a maestro.
- MANNEQUEEN’s director score was led by Redlic with 375 points, followed by Yoonji with 365 points, and Funky Y with 360 points.
- Making the Street Woman Fighter 2 Mega Crew Mission (Structure Concept) 1 MILLION vs. MANNEQUEEN final score as such:
1 MILLION | MANNEQUEEN |
1265 | 1100 |
Who will win the Street Woman Fighter 2 Mega Crew Mission?
Mnet will release the last set of Mega Crew Mission performances, including the dance crews BEBE, Lady Bounce, and WolfLo, in the next episode (EP 6), along with the public votes. These scores will significantly affect the current ranking of dance crews, where 1 MILLION is in the lead with 1265 points.

- However, considering all the great performances, one can conclude that 1 MILLION will undoubtedly win the Street Woman Fighter Season 2‘s Mega Crew Mission. Their formation that told the story of swans showcasing excellent dancing skills and mesmerizing formations leading to the powerful conclusion was perfect in all aspects.
- It was also a performance that required multiple replays to truly cherish each choreography point. Therefore, 1 MILLION will most likely win Street Woman Fighter 2 Mega Crew Mission.
