The group AtHeart completed its first comeback activities successfully.
AtHeart released the digital singles "Shut Up" and "Butterfly Doors" consecutively in February and March. Through about three weeks of music show activities, they proved strengthened skills and teamwork, triggering a "butterfly effect" in the music industry.
On every stage AtHeart flawlessly executed high-difficulty performances from floor work to pair choreography, making a strong impression on domestic and international music fans. Intricate formations and graceful movement paths built on solid fundamentals over layered sound increased the visual enjoyment.
Riding a strong wave, AtHeart achieved notable results across various metrics. With "Butterfly Doors," AtHeart entered YouTube Korea's daily popular music video chart for 12 consecutive days, demonstrating intense popularity. In particular, AtHeart reached No. 10 on that chart as of April 6, setting its own best record. Since first entering the chart at No. 16 on March 26, AtHeart has continued to rise, kindling the spark of a long-running hit.
The music videos have also consistently drawn attention. Filmed entirely on location in Los Angeles (LA), the combined views of the "Shut Up" and "Butterfly Doors" music videos surpassed a staggering 30 million views. In the exotic scenery, AtHeart's distinctive visuals and performances, along with the appearance of the iconic United Theatre—a landmark associated with Charlie Chaplin—converged to captivate global fans, according to reactions.
In this way AtHeart solidified its presence as the "fifth-generation heart" by carrying out all-around activities across various platforms, including music shows, variety, radio, and web content. Through "Limousine Service," "No Nose No Co," and "ONE TAKE," they showcased vocal and performance skills, proving their potential as a "complete rookie" and raising expectations for their future path.
AtHeart's "butterfly effect" continues. AtHeart will appear on "SIMPLY K-POP Gateway To Korea," recorded over two weeks on the 10th and 17th, meeting domestic and international music fans. AtHeart is also expected to maintain a steep rise by performing on the closing stage of the Seokchon Lake cherry blossom festival on the 11th and by appearing on various university festival stages in May.
