TWS Successfully Wraps Up First Asia Tour: “We’ll Keep Giving It Our All Until the End of the Year”




The group TWS (Shinyu, Dohoon, Youngjae, Hanjin, Jihoon, and Kyungmin) successfully wrapped up their first Asia tour since debut.
TWS held a solo concert as part of their Asia tour, “24/7:FOR:YOU,” at Taiwan’s Kaohsiung Arena on October 24. Having kicked off the tour at KSPO DOME (Olympic Gymnastics Arena) in Songpa-gu, Seoul, last June, TWS performed 15 shows in total across Fukuoka, Hyogo, Kanagawa, Macau, Bangkok, Singapore, and Kaohsiung, meeting approximately 115,000 fans.
Meeting fans in Taiwan, TWS delivered diverse live performances of tracks from their fifth mini album, including “Get It Now,” “Fire Escape,” and “Why You So Bad?” They then enriched the setlist with a series of unreleased unit-song performances: “SHIFT” (Jihoon and Kyungmin), “To You Who Has Come Through That Long Night” (Youngjae and Hanjin), and “HOW DID YOU DO THAT” (Shinyu and Dohoon), all of which the members had taken the lead in creating choreography for or working on.
The locally tailored limited-edition stages also received an enthusiastic response. At their concerts in Japan, TWS performed all the songs from their second local single, “SODA SODA,” live. In Greater China, they took on a cover of “恋爱ing,” a signature song by the beloved local band Mayday. At the Macau concert, they premiered the Chinese version of “hey! hey!” and subsequently released it as a digital single.
After completing the tour, TWS shared, “Meeting 42s (the official name of TWS’s fandom) in various cities helped us grow even further. Thank you for sending us so much love wherever we went. The message of ‘24/7:FOR:YOU’ was a gift, but thanks to our 42s, who created such precious moments for us and turned our doubts about whether we could do well into certainty, we actually feel as though we received the gift instead.”
They continued, “We will soon make our comeback with the new song ‘Call My Name.’ We’ll give it our all through the end of the year.”
TWS will release their new album, “TO US,” through domestic and international music platforms at 6 p.m. on November 2. Through “TO US,” which means “to us” while also sharing the same pronunciation as the group’s name, the members will sincerely capture not only their Appearance onstage but also their trials, errors, and hesitations offstage, offering comfort and courage to “us” living in the same era.
The title track, “Call My Name,” is a youth anthem conveying the members’ sincere feelings that they can throw themselves fully into performing because they have fans who believe in them. Youngjae, Shinyu, and Dohoon participated in writing the title track’s lyrics, while the single contains three tracks in total, including “WE UP,” which expresses their determination to aim higher, and “heavy,” which offers comfort to young people.
Previously, TWS achieved first-week million-seller status after releasing their previous album, “NO TRAGEDY,” in April, and recorded strong results including a sold-out KSPO DOME concert in June. Expectations are high for the new music activities of the group that established itself as a youth icon through promotions for the title track “OVERDRIVE” from last year’s fourth mini album, “play hard.”
