Video trend
If you found the Mi Chico dance through a video of kittens, dogs or a goat dancing in an alley, you saw a remake. The format those clips copy, with a huddle over a phone on the ground, a selfie walk-back and a crew routine, comes from a video of five friends on a rooftop. This page lays out how the versions relate, what each one changes and which one Oakgen's Mi Chico Dance template recreates.
The earliest version of this format we found is a TikTok by @jyt, posted on September 26, 2026: five friends filmed from the ground as they lean over a phone, then a selfie, then the full Mi Chico routine on a rooftop car park at sunset. The same account posted the format again on September 30 and October 3 with the crew in matching outfits. We checked the account's earlier posts and found no Mi Chico video before September 26.
On September 30, 2026 an AI video of kittens doing the same routine appeared, and its caption tags @jyt. On October 2 a version with four dogs, a goat and a boar followed, built on the same template: the low-angle huddle, the selfie, the alley and the dance, with the animals in place of the crew. These are AI remakes made with other tools; Oakgen did not make them and does not reproduce their characters, settings or branding.
The animal versions keep the structure and the timing but move the action to a graffiti alley, swap the people for animals and, in the October 2 clip, use a different upload of the Mi Chico sound. The joke is the animals. The crew original's appeal is different: real friends, a sunset rooftop and the leader's selfie, which is why people make their own versions with their own friends.
Mi Chico Dance follows the September 26 crew video: the rooftop car park, the phone huddle against the sky, the selfie walk-back and the five-person routine, with the original sound. It is set up for five photos of people, normally you and four friends, each redrawn as one dancer. It is not an animal template, and we have not reviewed a result made from pet photos, so we do not promise one.
Oakgen has trends built around a single animal, such as Tiramisu Dog, where one pet photo plays the customer at a dessert shop window. Those templates are designed for one character. The Mi Chico crew template needs five dancers drawn from five photos, and it is meant for people who agreed to be in the video.
If you post your version next to a source, credit the crew original to @jyt and label your clip as AI-made. The preview on Oakgen's trend page is that credited source video, shown for its moves, camera and timing; it is not an Oakgen result. We have no figures on how often any of these versions are searched, and none are claimed here.
Add a photo for each role shown below. All roles need a photo.
Upload one clear photo for each of the five dancers. The leader picks up the phone and dances front and centre most of the time, so cast that role first.
Choose a quality and review the quote. It includes preparing all five photos and the complete video.
Watch the huddle faces, the selfie, and each dancer as the formation rotates before downloading your portrait MP4 with the original sound.
Each photo casts one member of the crew: their face, hair and outfit carry from the huddle over the phone, through the selfie walk-back, into the routine. Nobody from the original video is kept.
One continuous 17-second shot: the worm's-eye huddle against the sky, the leader's selfie walking backwards, the phone going down and the full-crew routine on a rooftop car park as the sun sets and the lights come on.
The finished video keeps the source's audio, the Mi Chico sound the original crew danced to, so every chest pump, sway and hands-on-head finish stays on the beat.
The preview is the original @jyt crew video, credited and used as the motion and timing reference. It is not an Oakgen-generated result.
It is a group dance to the song "Mi Chico". In the crew version Oakgen recreates, five friends lean over a phone lying on the ground, one picks it up for a selfie and walks backwards, then the five dance the Mi Chico routine together on a rooftop car park. On TikTok it is also searched as "trend de mi chico".
Yes. Every dancer in the video is redrawn from a photo, so the leader, blue beanie, black cap, sunglasses and graphic tee each need one: yourself and four friends. Fewer than five is not supported, because a dancer without a photo would have no one to become.
The leader is the dancer in the patchwork jacket at the front of the opening huddle. They pick up the phone, film the selfie walking backwards and dance front and centre for most of the routine, so they are seen the most. Put the person the video is about in that slot.
"Mi Chico" is a song by DJ Goja, released in March 2026. The source clip uses the TikTok sound "Official Mi Chico", credited to Jason Derulo, from the later Jason Derulo and Melody version. Your video keeps the source's audio.
The animal clips are AI remakes that copied this crew's format after it was posted. Oakgen's Mi Chico Dance follows the original five-person crew and is made for photos of people.
Gangnam Style Trio and Bulin 47 Squad are three-person routines, and Smalltown Boy Dance is a duo. Mi Chico Dance is the five-person one, with the phone huddle and selfie walk-back before the routine.
About 17 seconds in portrait 9:16, from the first wave over the phone to the final whip-pan up to the sky.
Use photos of yourself or of people who agreed to be in the video, one person per photo. Do not upload photos of public figures or anyone who has not consented.
No. It is the attributed source video by @jyt, shown for its moves, camera and timing. Your result is drawn from your five photos; review every face and the routine before sharing.
