Popin-Q-Visual-002-20160125Pop In Q is set in a world much like ours. It’s the day before graduation, and five middle school girls are busy with the drudgery of everyday life. Suddenly, something truly miraculous happens! These five special ladies are pulled into a fantasy world, where they’re told of an impending crisis. It’s up to these special girls to bring the world together and ward off calamity by uniting their hearts in dance. Sadly, these young ladies are unable to find their love of this world, and they can’t open up to one another. The clock is ticking, and the world (not to mention graduation!) rests upon their shoulders.

Several character visuals and a pair of teasers were released to promote the film. You can check these out below:
