History

2024–present: Formation and introduction

Nikki Semin-Han, who was the former chief executive officer of SM Entertainment, co-founded entertainment agency Titan Content on November 28, 2023. The agency expressed to incorporate its traditional Korean pop training and development with metaverse innovation. Titan Content planned in launching two South Korean girl groups with global auditions occurring the next year. After scouting talent from prominent locations, the agency announced on July 16, 2024, that Michi and Sorin are the first members for upcoming girl group AtHeart. The group name simply indicates their "genuine nature" to have the connection and love between them and their fans, to ensure the empowerment of being authentic.
Maeil Business Newspaper were perplexed for this decision as individuals and their social media accounts are kept confidential until the group is finalized. Revealing their identities simultaneously tend to be unconventional. Three members were introduced as Katelyn, Seohyeon, and Aurora on November 12 for AtHeart. Although the group became a five-piece ensemble, the agency had more members to recruit soon before AtHeart debut early next year. Three months later, the seven-member group was established, unveiling Nahyun, Arin, and Bome on February 21, 2025. Teen Vogue interviewed them showcasing their influences and strengths; Sorin was later removed from publication as she is no longer debuting with AtHeart.
Titan Content subsequently partnered with Imperial Music, a division from Republic Records, that "makes them the ideal partner for this venture." AtHeart started to upload teasers showcasing their pre-debut song and released a music video titled "Good Girl " through video sharing platform YouTube on March 14. The hyperpop song was soon pre-released worldwide digitally for music download and streaming on May 29 at 1 p.m..
A month later, the group confirmed on July 10 they would release their debut extended play in the upcoming month. While promoting the project, the next day it was announced that Aurora was excluded due to health problems. Plot Twist was later released globally on August 13 at 6 p.m., which includes five songs in its tracklist. AtHeart soon would make their first televised performances through M Countdown, Show! Music Core, and Inkigayo.
