## What is the Next Chapter Dance trend, and where did it start?

"Next Chapter" is an English-language single by Hearts2Hearts, the eight-member girl group of SM Entertainment, made for the 10th anniversary of the mobile game Arena of Valor (called RoV in Thailand). Garena's Indonesian account teased it on 13 October 2026, and the song and its music video came out on 16 October at 6 PM Korean time. Bandwagon describes it as bright synth-pop about facing new challenges together.

The group posted two challenge clips on TikTok one hour after the release: four members at a time dance in a lilac studio in pastel outfits, swap to the front one by one, then run up to the camera for a close-up. By 27 October they had 1.98 million and 1.50 million views. Hearts2Hearts sang it live for the first time on 23 October at the RoV Pro League 2026 Winter event in Bangkok. Most of the covers and edits come from Indonesia, then Thailand and Korea. The first AI take came on 20 October: a cover by LUMORA, an AI-made K-pop group, the clip on this page.

## How to make the Next Chapter Dance video on MakeViral

Everything runs in the browser. No editing app, no watermark.

### The one-tap way (no prompt to write)

1. **Add your photo.** Press "Make yours" and add you, face clear (knees up is best). Take it with the camera or pick it from your library. Start here: https://www.makeviral.ai/templates/hearts2hearts-next-chapter-ai-dance/create
2. **Press Generate.** The button shows the price. Seedance 2.5 films the Next Chapter Dance scene straight from your photo, with no in-between picture, for 10 seconds with original sound. You write no prompt.
3. **Download or share.** The video is ready in a few minutes as a 9:16 MP4. Download it, share it from your phone, or find it later in My videos.

### The by-hand way, with the exact prompts

The one-tap flow runs this prompt for you. The video model takes your photo as a reference ([Image 1]) and films the scene straight from it, with no photo step first. AI Video takes one photo as the first frame, so it cannot run this prompt the same way: the prompt is here to read.

#### Variant: Solo

Settings: 1 photo (you, face clear (knees up is best)) · Seedance 2.5 · 10 s · 720p · 9:16 · with sound · 126 credits in one tap.

1. The video prompt is filled in. Settings: Seedance 2.5, 10 s, 720p, 9:16, sound on. The video prompt:

   ```text
   Animate the person in [Image 1]: a cheerful K-pop dance challenge in a bright pastel outfit. One continuous vertical 9:16 shot with no cuts, like a real phone video of a dance challenge on a tripod at chest height, photorealistic.

The dancer is the person in [Image 1], in every frame: copy the exact face from [Image 1] (the face shape, eye color and eye shape, eyebrows, nose, mouth, skin tone, age, hair color, hair length and hairstyle, and any beard, moustache, glasses or freckles), and the same build, so their friends recognize them at once. The dancer is an adult. They wear a bright pastel K-pop stage outfit: a pastel yellow short-sleeved top with small puff sleeves, light blue wide-leg flared jeans, and white sneakers. No logo, no print and no words or letters on it; never the clothes from [Image 1]. The face stays the same from the first frame to the last, also in the turn and the close-up. Never morph. If [Image 1] shows an animal, the dancer is that animal standing upright on its hind legs, with its own face, fur and markings, not a person.

The place: a bright, empty dance studio with a seamless lilac cyclorama wall that curves into a pale lilac floor, soft even light, no props, no screens, no signs.

The moves, bright, bouncy and sharp on the beat of a cheerful synth-pop K-pop chorus:
0-1.5 s: full body, a confident sweet smile, one hand on the hip; on the first beat they step out to the side.
1.5-4 s: bouncy side steps left and right, knees soft, the elbows lifted out at shoulder height and the forearms flapping like little wings on every beat.
4-6 s: one arm reaches up on a high diagonal with the fingers spread, the other hand on the hip, then a quick half turn back to the camera, the hair swinging.
6-8 s: both hands cross over the chest, then open wide to the sides with a small hop forward.
8-10 s: they step up close to the lens and hold both open palms up beside the face, fingers spread, with a big bright smile; the face fills the top of the frame. The face is large and sharp at the end: exactly the face from [Image 1].

Audio: an original bright, bouncy synth-pop K-pop style dance beat with playful synths and claps; no known song, no lyrics, no singing, no talking. Exactly one dancer. No game characters, no game logos and no screens. No famous people, no idols, no children. No logos and no words or letters anywhere. One head, two arms, two legs, five fingers per hand. No captions, no watermark.
   ```

2. Press Generate, then download the 9:16 MP4.

One-tap version of this variant: https://www.makeviral.ai/templates/hearts2hearts-next-chapter-ai-dance/create

#### Variant: Squad

Settings: 3 photos (you (middle), face clear + friend 2 (left), face clear + friend 3 (right), face clear) · Seedance 2.5 · 10 s · 720p · 9:16 · with sound · 126 credits in one tap.

1. The video prompt is filled in. Settings: Seedance 2.5, 10 s, 720p, 9:16, sound on. The video prompt:

   ```text
   Animate the three people in [Image 1], [Image 2] and [Image 3]: a cheerful K-pop dance challenge in a row in matching bright pastel outfits. One continuous vertical 9:16 shot with no cuts, like a real phone video of a dance challenge on a tripod at chest height, all three head to sneakers, photorealistic.

The dancer in the MIDDLE is the person in [Image 1], in every frame: copy the exact face from [Image 1] (the face shape, eye color and eye shape, eyebrows, nose, mouth, skin tone, age, hair color, hair length and hairstyle, and any beard, moustache, glasses or freckles). The dancer on the LEFT is the person in [Image 2]: copy the exact face from [Image 2]. The dancer on the RIGHT is the person in [Image 3]: copy the exact face from [Image 3]. All three are adults. Never blend their faces; each keeps their own face, hair and build from the first frame to the last, so their friends recognize them at once. All three wear a bright pastel K-pop stage outfit: a pastel yellow short-sleeved top with small puff sleeves, light blue wide-leg flared jeans, and white sneakers. No logo, no print and no words or letters on it; never the clothes from their photos. If an image shows an animal, that dancer is that animal standing upright, with its own face, fur and markings.

The place: a bright, empty dance studio with a seamless lilac cyclorama wall that curves into a pale lilac floor, soft even light, no props, no screens, no signs.

The moves, bright, bouncy and sharp on the beat of a cheerful synth-pop K-pop chorus:
0-1.5 s: full body, a confident sweet smile, one hand on the hip; on the first beat they step out to the side.
1.5-4 s: bouncy side steps left and right, knees soft, the elbows lifted out at shoulder height and the forearms flapping like little wings on every beat.
4-6 s: one arm reaches up on a high diagonal with the fingers spread, the other hand on the hip, then a quick half turn back to the camera, the hair swinging.
6-8 s: both hands cross over the chest, then open wide to the sides with a small hop forward.
8-10 s: they step up close to the lens and hold both open palms up beside the face, fingers spread, with a big bright smile; the face fills the top of the frame. The three dance every move in sync, the middle one a half step in front; at the end all three step up together and all three faces are large and sharp.

Audio: an original bright, bouncy synth-pop K-pop style dance beat with playful synths and claps; no known song, no lyrics, no singing, no talking. Exactly three dancers. No game characters, no game logos and no screens. No famous people, no idols, no children. No logos and no words or letters anywhere. One head, two arms, two legs, five fingers per hand. No captions, no watermark.
   ```

One-tap version of this variant: https://www.makeviral.ai/templates/hearts2hearts-next-chapter-ai-dance/create?variant=squad

### Which photo works best?

You need **one photo for Solo** and **three for Squad**.

- **People:** one person per photo, face to the camera, sharp and well lit; from the knees up is best. Your face and hair come from the photo, the pastel outfit from the template.
- **Squad:** photo 1 leads in the middle, photo 2 dances on the left, photo 3 on the right.
- No sunglasses, no mask, no beauty filter, nobody else in the photo.
- This template is for adults. Use photos of yourself or of adults who agreed. Never a celebrity, an idol, a stranger or a child.

## How many credits does it cost?

You pay per video in credits, and the create page shows the exact price on the Generate button before you spend anything. The one-tap price covers the scene photo and the video, charged once. The cheaper models are there if you run the prompts by hand in AI Video.

| Video model | Settings | Credits |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Seedance 2.5 (this template) | 10 s, 720p, straight from your photos, one tap | 126 |

Credits come with a plan; see [pricing](https://www.makeviral.ai/pricing). A failed video gives its credits back.

## What happens in the Next Chapter dance video, second by second?

Every version is one continuous 10-second shot in a bright lilac dance studio, the plain look of the official challenge:

| Seconds | Solo and Squad |
|---|---|
| 0-1.5 | You stand in a pastel outfit, one hand on the hip, and step out on the first beat. |
| 1.5-4 | Bouncy side steps, the elbows out at shoulder height, the arms flapping like little wings. |
| 4-6 | One arm reaches up on a high diagonal, the other hand on the hip, then a quick turn. |
| 6-8 | Hands cross over the chest and open wide, with a small hop forward. |
| 8-10 | You step up to the lens and hold both open palms beside your face with a big smile. |

Squad dances every move in sync, the way four members at a time do in the official clips. The clip comes with an original bright synth-pop beat, not the Hearts2Hearts song. Every run is a new take, so results differ.

## Solo or Squad: which version should you pick?

Press "Create your own" and pick one.

| | Solo (default) | Squad |
|---|---|---|
| Photos | 1: you | 3: you and two friends |
| How it works | Top-quality AI video models, including Seedance 2.5, make the scene straight from your photo | The same, from three photos |
| Frame | Vertical 9:16, 720p | 9:16, 720p |
| Length | 10 s | 10 s |
| Sound | An original synth-pop K-pop style beat | The same |

**Solo** is the challenge as most fan covers do it. **Squad** looks like the official clips and the LUMORA cover, where the dancers move in a row. The exact price shows on the Generate button before you spend anything.

## Why no idol in your video?

MakeViral never uses the Hearts2Hearts members' faces, clips or names to make a video: the dancer is always the person in your photo. The outfit is a plain pastel look with no logo and no words on it, and the studio has no game or brand art.

**Sound and hashtags:** the clip comes with an original beat. You can pick the official "Next Chapter" sound on TikTok when you post; the song belongs to its label, and MakeViral gives you no rights to it. #hearts2hearts (1.47 million videos) is the big tag on 27 October 2026; #NextChapter and #Hearts2Hearts_NextChapter work too. Keep the platform's AI label on.

## What goes wrong, and how do you fix it?

| Problem | Fix |
|---|---|
| The face looks less like you | Use a sharp, well-lit photo with the face turned to the camera, then run it again. |
| The wing arms look like a plain bounce | Run it again; every take moves a little differently. |
| A logo or letters show on the top | The prompt bans them; run it again. |
| Two friends swap places (Squad) | Upload the photos in the order you want them: photo 1 in the middle. |
| The end pose is cut off | Run it again; the close-up lands at about 8 seconds. |
| The video model refuses a photo | Some photos get refused. The credits come back; try another photo. |

## Next Chapter Dance trend questions

### What is the Hearts2Hearts Next Chapter challenge?

It is the dance challenge of "Next Chapter", the first English single of the K-pop girl group Hearts2Hearts, out 16 October 2026. In the official clips four members at a time do bouncy steps with wing-like arms, reach one arm high, swap to the front and end with a close-up to the camera. Fans also call it the H2H Next Chapter challenge, the newest Hearts2Hearts challenge on TikTok.

### Bisakah saya membuat video challenge Next Chapter Hearts2Hearts dengan AI?

Bisa. Dari satu foto, kamu menari challenge Next Chapter di studio tari berwarna lilac dengan outfit pastel: langkah memantul dengan siku terbuka seperti sayap, satu tangan ke atas, lalu kedua telapak tangan terbuka di samping wajah. Pilih Squad untuk menari bersama dua teman. Penarinya adalah kamu, bukan member Hearts2Hearts.

### 하츠투하츠 Next Chapter 챌린지를 AI로 만들 수 있나요?

네. 사진 한 장으로 하츠투하츠 Next Chapter 챌린지 영상을 만들어요. 라일락색 댄스 스튜디오에서 파스텔 의상을 입고, 팔꿈치를 날개처럼 펄럭이며 통통 튀는 스텝을 밟고, 한 팔을 높이 뻗은 뒤, 마지막에 두 손바닥을 얼굴 옆에 펼쳐요. 친구 두 명과 함께 하는 Squad도 있어요. 이 하츠투하츠 챌린지 영상의 댄서는 사진 속 당신이고, 멤버의 얼굴은 쓰지 않아요.

### When did the Hearts2Hearts new song come out?

"Next Chapter" came out on 16 October 2026 at 6 PM Korean time, with a music video. It is the Hearts2Hearts new single made for the 10th anniversary of Arena of Valor, and the group sang it live for the first time in Bangkok on 23 October. On 27 October it is the Hearts2Hearts latest song.

### How do I make the Next Chapter AI dance video?

Press "Create your own", pick Solo or Squad, and add your photos. Press Generate; the button shows the price first. You get a 10-second Hearts2Hearts AI dance clip with your face, the pastel outfit and an original beat. You write no prompt: it is a ready-made AI dance video generator template.

### What are the moves of the Next Chapter dance?

The Next Chapter choreography of the challenge: bouncy side steps with the elbows out at shoulder height like little wings, one arm reaching up high with the other hand on the hip, a quick turn, the hands crossing over the chest and opening wide, then a step to the camera with both open palms beside the face. You do not need a Hearts2Hearts Next Chapter dance tutorial for the AI version: the video does the moves for you.

### Can I do it with friends?

Yes. Squad takes three photos: you dance in a row in matching pastel outfits, every move in sync, like the members in the official clips, a Hearts2Hearts dance practice look. Photo 1 is always you, in the middle. Use photos of adults who agreed.

### Will Hearts2Hearts be in my video?

No. MakeViral never puts an idol's face or clip into your video, and the prompts never name the group. The dancer is the person in your photo, so it is your own cover of the Hearts2Hearts dance challenge, made with AI. Never use a photo of a celebrity, an idol, a stranger or a child.

### What is the Hearts2Hearts AI dance on TikTok?

On 20 October 2026 an AI account posted LUMORA, an AI-made K-pop group, dancing the Next Chapter choreography: the first AI take of the challenge, shown on this page. This template makes the same kind of AI idol dance with your own face, alone or with two friends.

### What song does the video use?

Your clip comes with an original bright synth-pop K-pop style beat, made with the video. It is not the Hearts2Hearts song: "Next Chapter" belongs to its label. When you post, you can pick the official sound on TikTok yourself.

### Is the Next Chapter dance trend still growing?

Yes. On 27 October 2026 #hearts2hearts got about 3,300 new TikTok videos a day, up from about 1,900 the day before, after the Bangkok stage. AI takes were still rare, so an early AI kpop dance stands out.

### Can I make other K-pop AI dance videos?

Yes. For more kpop dance AI clips, try the ILLIT You're Under Arrest dance, the IVE Looks Can Kill dance or the A2O LITE NEON dance. Each one is a kpop AI dance video template made from your photos.

### Which AI models make the videos?

Top-quality AI video models, including Seedance 2.5, make the clip straight from your photos, vertical at 720p. Each run makes a 10-second MP4 with sound and no watermark.

### What prompt does the Next Chapter AI trend use?

On 27 October 2026 nobody had shared a prompt: the only AI take had no prompt in its caption or comments. Our prompts describe the challenge moves (the wing-arm steps, the arm reach, the open-palm ending), a plain pastel outfit and a lilac studio, plus our tested words that keep your face.
