“ I suck at Dance Dance Revolution,' she said to the Los Angeles Times. While the end result is a performance worthy of Dancing With The Stars, King has said her actual DDR skills are lacking. In preparation for the final performance, she's shown practicing tirelessly with both Lee and new guy Marco (Taylor Zakhar Perez). In The Kissing Booth 2, Elle enters a DDR competition in an attempt to win the grand-prize of $50,000 (which she needs to pay for college).

'I’m not a dancer! This choreography is nuts, but so good.” “It is so intense, and the first movie you thought we had hard DDR,” King said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times. After watching the sequel, it's pretty clear their training had to be even more rigorous. According to Seventeen, Joey King and Joel Courtney danced for three hours every day before filming the original flick.

Warning: Light spoilers for The Kissing Booth 2. There's so much to unpack in The Kissing Booth 2, from relationship drama to college plans, but throughout it all, one key component carries over from the first film: Elle and Lee's love of Dance Dance Revolution (DDR).

The highly anticipated sequel to The Kissing Booth follows best friends Elle Evans (King) and Lee Flynn (Joel Courtney) as they start their senior year of high school. After Netflix's newest rom-com was released on July 24, viewers are wondering if Joey King is really dancing in The Kissing Booth 2, because her moves in the film are low-key incredible. The 20-year-old actress has accomplished quite a lot in her career so far (including an Emmy nomination) so it wouldn't surprise fans if she had even more talents hidden up her sleeve. It's no secret Joey King is majorly talented.
