There is nothing "magic" about absolute zero. It's unattainable in practice, but theoretically nothing in particular would "happen" if an atom did achieve that temperature. If you were hoping for an answer like "the electrons would stop moving and collapse into the nucleus", no, sorry, that's not going to happen.

Does absolute zero really exist?

no, absolute zero is only a myth. Temperature is the measurement of thermal energy caused by the movement of the atoms. at absolute zero, atom freezes and it would be impossible to measure its temperature.
