Young JV held an event called Ready or Not Dance-off in which a dance competition, that challenged dance crews to recreate and step up the choreography from his music video "Shake Shake."

During the interview of Young JV by Manila Bulletin Online and other member of the press, he explains why he wanted to create only OPM and be known by his talents.
