TWICE
The girl group TWICE will release its fifth “Best album”, “#TWICE5”.
The group TWICE will release its fifth best-selling album in Japan, “#TWICE5,” on May 14th. The new album is the fifth installment of “#TWICE,” TWICE’s “best-selling album,” which will be released approximately three years and two months after “#TWICE4,” which was released in March 2022.
The album features Japanese versions of several hits beloved by K-pop listeners worldwide, including “Talk that talk,” “Set me free,” and “One spark,” which are generating growing excitement among local fans.
The group’s concept photo for the new album was posted on official Japanese social media at midnight (local time) on March 21st. In the photo, TWICE creates a bright and refreshing atmosphere with its bright orange accents. The relaxed and fresh smiles of the nine members, who appear to be enjoying a midday picnic on the grass, convey a pleasant energy and inspire hope for the new album.
From its official Japanese debut in June 2017 to its fifth album “DIVE” released in July 2024, TWICE has been recognized for its great achievements, such as dominating the biggest music charts and prestigious awards.
In particular, as part of its fifth world tour, “TWICE 5TH WORLD TOUR “READY TO BE”,” which attracted a cumulative total of 1.5 million spectators, the group cemented its status by attracting hundreds of thousands of spectators to major local venues such as Yanma Nagai Stadium in Osaka, Japan, Ajinomoto Stadium in Tokyo, and Nissan Stadium in Kanagawa, becoming the first female artists to perform overseas.
This year, the group will continue its activities as a “top global girl group” by meeting audiences on various domestic and international stages. They will be special guests at British band Coldplay’s “Coldplay [Music Of The Spheres World Tour]” concert in Korea at Goyang Stadium in Gyeonggi Province in April, and will headline Lollapalooza Chicago, a large-scale music festival to be held at Grant Park in Chicago, Illinois, on August 2nd local time.
This time, “Lollapalooza Chicago” once again demonstrated its strong influence by proudly featuring TWICE as the headliner, a lineup featuring top foreign artists such as Olivia Rodrigo, Sabrina Carpenter, Luke Combs, and A$AP Rocky.
