Kahi, formerly of the iconic girl group After School, is making waves as a dynamic dance instructor, showcasing her renewed passion.

Recently, Kahi shared a clip from her class on social media, exclaiming, "This is so exciting~~ Join Kahi's Dance Fitness!!"

In the released video, Kahi, wearing a microphone, personally demonstrates moves for her dance academy students. She leads a vibrant class with energetic choreography, proving her skills are as sharp as ever despite a significant hiatus. Her professional charisma captivated viewers.

Actress So Yoo-jin showed her support by leaving fire emojis in the comments, to which Kahi playfully replied, "Yoo-jin!!! You have to come!!!" highlighting their strong friendship.

Kahi previously opened up about the difficulties she faced after leaving After School, admitting, "I hit rock bottom after leaving the group. I wasn't taken care of by the company and struggled financially."

However, instead of succumbing to despair, she chose a new path. Upon returning to Korea, Kahi established her dance academy, 'Gisecrew,' embarking on a new chapter.

She expressed her joy, stating, "Teaching children, styling them, figuring out how to make them look prettier, how to make them dance better – I teach them using the know-how I've gained. Watching them absorb it and transform is incredibly fulfilling and fun."

Kahi also shared a past struggle: "There were dark times when I felt like I was dying because I had no dreams. Since meeting Gisecrew, I am dreaming again."

Meanwhile, Kahi married a businessman in 2016 and is a mother of two sons. After living in Bali, Indonesia, for five years following her marriage, she has returned to Korea and is currently experiencing her second prime as a 'Dance CEO.'

Fans are showering Kahi with supportive messages, impressed by her energetic return. Comments like "Your passion is always so cool!", "Rooting for Gisecrew!", and "Dancing is truly Kahi!" are flooding in.
