It all started on ‘Tiktok’, when user ‘JineuJerkin’ uploaded a video edit of Slavic animation characters twerking under the song 'Up n Down' by ‘Only Fire’. Tiktokers picked up the trend and started making their own dancing videos parodying the moves and Slavic outfits. And they sing about it, while dancing quite eccentrically, shaking their hips (which has zero connection with any true folk dances!). Check out the original song and dance they are performing for yourself! And the ‘Slavic outfit’ with fur hats and red lips with the Red Square in the background also went viral.
