Charlie Puth and Jungkook really delivered a bop with Left and Right. It’s no wonder then that the song truly took on a life of its own.

When Charlie Puth and BTS’ Jungkook teased that they had something in the works, they had the internet in a chokehold as people waited in anticipation on what their special project was. It turns out that it was their first official song together that came in the form of the song Left and Right. And the two delivered on the assignment with a fun pop bop and a music video that sees the two musicians play a couple with Charlie having to go to therapy because he keeps on seeing Jungkook everywhere. (Same tbh.)
110 million streams on Spotify later, Left and Right is still a banger. But not only is it doing well in the charts, it’s also dominating TikTok as of the moment. A sped up fan edit of the track has been making the rounds on the video sharing platform and has been used over 3.2 million times and counting. It also spawned a now viral dance that some of our faves have tried. In this round-up, check out some of the stars who’ve done the Left and Right dance trend on TikTok.
KYLINE ALCANTARA AND MAVY LEGASPI
@itskylinealcantara3 hirap mo ka bonding, @mavy.legaspi ♬ Left And Right (Speed Up) – kerstin⁷
What we love most about this was how unserious Kyline and Mavy were. It was fun, playful, and a bardagulan in the best way possible.
AC BONIFACIO, ANDREA BRILLANTES, ANGELA KEN, AWRA, SHEENA BELARMINO, DARREN ESPANTO, AND JEREMY GLINOGA

♬ Left And Right (Speed Up) – kerstin⁷
Why have one star in your TikTok video when you can have seven? The stars of musical series Lyric and Beat come together for their take on the song and nail it, as expected.
KIANNA DY AND MAJOY BARON
@kiannady_ Tried something new! Dancing with feelings! Out of 10 how did we do? @majoybaron ♬ Left And Right (Speed Up) – kerstin⁷
We love talented besties. While their dance skills may not exactly match their volleyball finesse, what matters here is that both are having fun, and lots of it.
THE JUANS’ RJ AND SB19’S STELL
@rjscruz Forda baliktad na left and right haha ✌?? @stellajero16 ♬ Left And Right (Speed Up) – kerstin⁷
No, they didn’t do it wrong. They were giving their new take on the trend called Right and Left. Plus points for the uniqueness. And in case you were wondering, Stell made a redo, this time going left to right.
ZEINAB HARAKE AND HANS ALCANZARE
@hpalcanzare09 I can feel you over here.

While these two have remained coy about the official status of their relationship, there’s no denying they looked so cute doing this.
VIVOREE, CRIZA TAA, AND JOAO CONSTANCIA
@imjoaoconz Have you seen HIH episode 13 earlier?! If not, you can go watch it for free on @iwanttfc! HOO HAA HOO HAA ❤️?? @mscrizataa @vivoree ♬ Left And Right (Speed Up) – kerstin⁷
Love triangle? More like dance triangle. Criza, Vivoree, and Joao gave fun energy while dressed in matching neutrals and pastels.
JENNIFER NIERVA

♬ Left And Right (Speed Up) – kerstin⁷
She slays on the volleyball court, and she slays on TikTok, too. The NU Lady Bulldogs volleyball star gives us this fun take on the trend. Bonus points for Jennifer including her siblings in it.
EYA BORJA AND LUKE LABAGNOY
@eyavanana kumukulit ka na ha
♬ Left And Right (Speed Up) – kerstin⁷
The love bird energy here is strong. It was a low-key effort from these two, but it brings a smile to our face seeing Eya this happy.
RURU MADRID
@rurumadrid1997 Left and Right ? #FYP ♬ Left And Right (Speed Up) – kerstin⁷
As a known fanboy of BTS, it’s no surprise that Ruru Madrid would try the TikTok Left and Right dance. And he looked so good doing it.
