Twice releases ‘READY TO BE’ personal teaser relay

TWICE's Sana, Jihyo, and Mina showed off their handsome charms in the second individual teaser for their new album 'READY TO BE'.

Twice will release its 12th mini album 'READY TO BE' and title song 'SET ME FREE' on March 10th. JYP Entertainment opened the second individual photo of Nayeon, Jeongyeon, and Momo on its official SNS channel on February 28th, and at 00:00 on March 1st, it attracted attention by showing individual teaser images that highlight the chic looks of Sana, Jihyo, and Mina.

If the first individual photo showed wild energy, the second individual image in a suit is captivating global K-pop fans with an urban atmosphere. Sana showed an elegant yet alluring mood, and Jihyo completed her special charisma with a haughty expression. Mina radiated eyes that highlighted her inner strength, raising expectations for the new song's concept.

The comeback title song 'SET ME FREE' is a collaboration between Melanie Fontana, who created 'I CAN'T STOP ME', 'CRY FOR ME', and 'SCIENTIST'. It was completed by leading domestic and foreign writers, including Lindgren and GALACTIKA, who collaborated on 'Heart Shaker'. Twice awakens the senses of K-pop listeners with lyrics that confidently express themselves on a simple yet powerful sound.

The new album includes pre-released English singles 'MOONLIGHT SUNRISE', 'GOT THE THRILLS', and 'BLAME IT ON ME', which succeeded in entering the US Billboard main chart 'Hot 100' for the second time in total. A total of seven tracks are included, including 'I'm It On Me', 'WALLFLOWER', 'CRAZY STUPID LOVE', and the title song 'SET ME FREE' and the English version of the title song.

TWICE will be holding their fifth world tour of the same name as their new album, 'TWICE 5TH WORLD TOUR 'READY TO BE', starting in Seoul on April 15th and 16th. Sydney, Australia on May 3 (local time), Melbourne on the 6th, Osaka, Japan on the 13th and 14th, Tokyo on the 20th and 21st, Los Angeles, USA on June 10, Auckland on the 13th, Seattle on the 16th, and Dallas on the 21st. , Houston on the 24th, Chicago on the 28th, Toronto, Canada on July 2nd, New York, USA on the 6th, and Atlanta on the 9th, the first plan of 17 events in 14 cities around the world heated up global enthusiasm.

In addition, as part of the new world tour, it was announced that the first Japanese stadium performance by a K-pop girl group will be held at Yanmar Stadium Nagai in Osaka, Japan and Ajinomoto Stadium in Tokyo, followed by the group's performance at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and MetLife Stadium in New York. The influence was felt. In particular, there is interest in Twice, who became the first K-pop girl group to perform and sell out a North American stadium performance at the Bank of California Stadium in Los Angeles in May last year, and will prove to be a 'global top girl group' with a world tour that has expanded in size and scale. I am focused.

Meanwhile, TWICE's new mini album 'READY TO BE' and title song 'SET ME FREE' will be officially released on the 10th at 2 PM, 00:00 Eastern time in the United States.
