“I feel so reassured”, “On the contrary, I felt that I had something to learn”, the group SEVENTEEN bombarded TWS with affectionate praise.
TWS (Shinyu, Dohoon, Youngjae, Hanjin, Jihoon and Kyungmin) released an official teaser named “TWS Prologue The Full Story” on Hybe Labels’ official YouTube channel at 6 p.m. KST on January 16 and “The first meeting was not did not go as planned” on January 17.
First of all, “TWS: Prologue The Full Story” is an expansion of “TWS Prologue ‘Oh Mymy: 7s“, released on January 2. It contains comments from SEVENTEEN, Pledis Entertainment master Han Sung Soo and Hybe president Bang Si Hyuk, as well as the true feelings of the six members before inspecting the scene of “Oh Mymy: 7s“.
The video, which began at the dorm, gave a glimpse of the members’ passion and sincerity toward their beginnings. “I have been training very hard. I have no doubts about my ability to perform with confidence,” JIHOON said before the stage inspection. “I trust you guys,” the youngest member, KYUNGMIN, boosted the members’ morale. Soon after, everyone in the studio was attentive to the performance of TWS’s “Oh Mymy: 7s“. Notably, SEVENTEEN attracted attention while watching TWS’ performance. WOOZI, HOSHI and SEUNGKWAN were seen dancing to TWS music or smiling.
Immediately after TWS’s performance, SEUNGKWAN said, “You did a great job. I feel so reassured.” DINO said: “I respect you for delivering such fresh emotions. On the contrary, I felt that I could learn something from TWS.” WOOZI also gave some heartfelt advice to TWS, saying, “I hope we continue to cherish each other.”
“It’s a great asset to have a good senior,” said Han Sung Soo, professional master of Pledis Entertainment. “Now that we’ve seen enough of how Seventeen has grown, follow the path of your seniors and become a team that plays great music.” “I hope you won’t forget that you can perform with confidence because I trained well. I’m glad you trained so well. I hope you succeed,” Bang Si Hyuk said, president of Hybe. who showed up earlier at another stage of the inspection.
The first official teaser of TWS’s debut mini album “SPARKLING” and its title track “첫 만남은 계획대로 되지 않아” also raised expectations for its debut performance. The catchy melody excites the audience. The visuals of the members are also as bright as a youth scene. TWS’ excitement and tension are expressed as the first day of school of the new semester approaches. The scene where the six members take a long breath in front of the class is cute, right out of bed. The fresh and adorable members make viewers smile.
“첫 만남은 계획대로 되지 않아” is a song that truly captures the emotions of “Boyhood Pop”, TWS’s own genre. Through this song, TWS will tell the story of overcoming the vague feelings of excitement of first meeting with the expectations for the bright days ahead. It should give a new impression by adding an exciting guitar and synth sound as well as intense drums.
TWS’ first mini album, “SPARKLING BLUE“, will be released in a surprise way at 6 p.m. KST on January 22. Before that, the pop-up store “TWS: THE MUSEUM VISITOR” will be held at Hyundai Seoul on the 18th. The pop-up store will provide an exhibition and experience opportunity to take a closer look at TWS.
