A Studio Choom YouTube video, featuring members Michi and Nahyun, showed the key choreography to “Plot Twist”—members literally twisting their bodies while holding each other’s heads.

While some fans liked the “cool” and “awesome” choreography…

• “The beat feels like WJSN’s, and the choreography has a Dreamcatcher vibe, so it gives off that 3rd-gen feel—I love it so much.”
• “I hope the agency gives them good promotion.”

…others weren’t so sure, noting how “bizarre” and “dangerous” it is.

• “Who comes up with such choreography that’s not even pretty and just bizarre?”
• “This is an insult to choreographies.”
• “That’s… absurdly weird…”
• “What were they thinking when they made this…?”
• “It doesn’t look good, it’s bad for the body, and even for viral purposes it’s inefficient.”
• “Feels J-Pop. Haha.”
• “That’s gonna hurt their backs.”
• “Oh man, they really need to be careful with their backs with this.”
• “Well, at least it got them on the hot board once and made their name known… Kinda sad though.”
• “Looks dangerous. I don’t think kids should be copying it.”
• “Wh… what is this…? Watch your spine, kids…”

Regardless, AtHeart’s rise is now being considered one of the more significant girl group debuts at the moment.
