Lee Chaeyeon Cries After Losing All Her Dance Battles on 'Woman Street Fighter'
On the August 24 episode of Mnet's "Woman Street Fight," the stage of the eight dance crews who are competing on the show was revealed. Specifically, the show featured the battle of the underdogs or the members who received the least recognition as dancers on the show.
The first mission conducted on this day is the no-respect dance battles. Dances would join one-on-one dance battle for 40 seconds. Dancers who were up for the dance battles could select which underdog they wanted to battle.
Previously, it was revealed that Lee Chaeyeon received six "No Respect" stickers, making her the contestant with the most of the said stickers. She had previously revealed that she was shocked by the number of stickers she had gotten. Though she had speculated that she would be pointed out, she thought two to three people would give her a sticker at most.
During the episode, YGX member Lee Jung announced that she thought she could beat Lee Chaeyeon, and the two battled on stage.
Both Lee Jung and Lee Chaeyeon radiated tremendous energy as they danced. However, by the end of the battle, judges BoA, NCT's Taeyong, and Hwang Sang Hoon all chose Lee Jung as the winner of the dance battle.
Soon, other dancers challenged Lee Chayeon, with all of them being victorious in their dance battles. She received four black chips, with one chip equaling one loss. Those chips would be attacked to Lee Chaeyeon's dance crew, WANT.
Following the dance battles, Chaeyeon was seen in tears. Her fellow co-members were seen comforting her as she cried.

Lee Chaeyeon Receives Six "No Respect" Stickers
As mentioned, Chaeyeon has previously received six "No Respect" stickers from fellow contestants. Other dancers could give the stickers to contestants they felt were less skilled than them or that they did not see as dancers. During the episode, dancers were seen discriminating against Lee Chaeyeon due to her background as an idol.
Upon receiving the stickers, her crew members defended her, saying that they had no right to give Chaeyeon a sticker if they had never practiced with her. The former IZ*ONE member was seen encouraging herself, saying she will prove that idols are just as capable of being good dancers.
