contents SEVENTEEN is a K-pop group with a large number of members 13 in total and the significant physical disparity between the tallest and shortest members among K-pop groups. However, despite their large numbers and physical differences, their dance performances exhibit unparalleled unity in the K-pop industry. According to one theory, their dance synchronization rate is said to be 90% or even 97%. However, there is little concrete data to substantiate this synchronization rate. In this study, we analyzed SEVENTEEN's dance performances using videos available on YouTube. We applied 2D skeleton detection and 3D pose estimation to evaluate joint angles, body part movements, and jumping and crouching motions to investigate the factors contributing to their performance unity. The analysis revealed exceptionally high consistency in the movement direction of body parts, as well as in the ankle and head positions during jumping movements and the head position during crouching movements. These findings suggested that SEVENTEEN's high synchronization rate can be attributed to the consistency of movement direction and the synchronization of ankle and head heights during jumping and crouching movements.
