Twice (Hangul: 트와이스; Japanese: トゥワイス; stylized as TWICE) is a South Korean girl group formed by JYP Entertainment through the 2015 reality show Sixteen. The group is composed of nine members: Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu. The group debuted on October 20, 2015 with the extended play (EP) The Story Begins.[1]

Twice rose to fame in 2016 with their song "Cheer Up" charted number 1 on Gaon Digital Chart and became the best-performing single that year. It also won Song of the Year in two major music awards shows, Melon Music Awards and Mnet Asian Music Awards.[2][3][4] Another song of the group, "TT" from their third EP Twicecoaster: Lane 1, claimed the top spot for four consecutive weeks. The EP was the highest selling K-pop girl group album of 2016, which sold 350,852 copies at year-end.[5][6] Within 19 months after debut, Twice has sold over 1.2 million units of their four EPs and special album.[7][8]

The group officially debuted in Japan on June 28, 2017 under Warner Music Japan with the release of their first compilation album titled #Twice. The album debuted at number 2 on Oricon Albums Chart, which sold 136,157 copies within seven days, the highest first week album sales among K-pop artists in Japan in the last two years.[9][10]

History

Pre-debut: New JYPE girl group and Sixteen

On December 19, 2013, JYP Entertainment (JYPE) announced that they would debut a new girl group in the first half of 2014, the first female group to come out of the company since the debut of Miss A in 2010.[11] On February 27, 2014, JYPE trainees Lena and Cecilia were confirmed as members of the group tentatively called as 6mix, while other rumoured members included JYPE trainees Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Jisoo (later Jihyo) and Minyoung.[12][13] After Cecilia's departure, JYPE trainee Sana replaced her and 6mix was about to debut when Lena left the company, effectively canceling their debut.

On February 11, 2015, Park Jin-young announced that the lineup of JYPE's upcoming seven member girl group would be decided through Sixteen, a competition survival show that would air on Mnet later that year.[14] Park explained in a press conference prior to the show's airing that he hoped the group would "have the Wonder Girls' and Miss A's natural, healthy feel, with an edgier and wilder side and to upgrade this next group by adding elements like hip-hop and rap."[15]

The show began on May 5 and ended with Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, and Chaeyoung as the seven Twice members. Park then announced that he would be increasing the size of the group from 7 members to 9 by adding Tzuyu, who was the "audience's pick" since she was the most popular contestant by the show's end, and Momo, who was added by Park himself since he felt the group needed someone with Momo's performance abilities. The decision was controversial at the time with many people complaining about eliminated contestants being able to join the group.[16][17][18]

Twice was to debut in late 2015.[19]

On July 10, 2015, Twice opened their official Instagram account with the first picture of the nine members posing together.[20] JYP Entertainment then released Twice TV, a web series that shared the members' hopes and stories through interviews and followed them as they prepared for their debut.[21]

2015–2016: Debut with The Story Begins, Page Two and Twicecoaster: Lane 1

On October 7, 2015, JYP Entertainment launched the band's official website and announced via SNS that the group would debut with the extended play (EP) The Story Begins and title track "Like Ooh-Ahh". The track was described as a 'color pop' dance track with elements of hip-hop, rock, and R&B.[22][23] The composition team included Black Eyed Pilseung, known for composing successful releases such as Miss A's "Only You."[24][25] The album and the song's music video were released on October 20. The group held a live showcase the same day, where they performed all tracks from the EP.[26][27][28] The music video hit 50 million views on YouTube within five months of their debut and became the most-viewed debut music video for any K-pop group.[29][30][31]

By December, Twice had signed ten CF contracts totaling earnings of KRW1.8 billion.[32] On December 27, the band performed a remix version of their single "Like Ooh-Ahh" at SBS Gayo Daejeon, Twice's first-ever attendance on a year-end music program.[33][34]

Twice on May 13, 2016

Twice's second EP, Page Two, was released on April 25, 2016. The album includes title track "Cheer Up", a remake of Park Ji-yoon's "Precious Love", and "I'm Gonna Be A Star", which served as the theme song for Sixteen. The group held their comeback showcase the same day at the Yes24 Live Hall located in Seoul, South Korea.[35][36] Twice won their first music program award with "Cheer Up" on May 5, on M Countdown, exactly one year after the initial airing of Sixteen. This was soon followed by wins on Music Bank and Inkigayo.[37][38]

In August, it was reported that Page Two had sold over 150,000 copies, making it the first girl group having a sales record of more than 100,000 units that year.[39]

On September 23, Twice released their two official colors, namely Apricot (Pantone 712 C) and Neon Magenta (Pantone 812 C), which signify the group and their fan club called "Once".[40][41] Five days later, JYP Entertainment announced Twice's plans for a late October comeback with a new album and another title track by Black Eyed Pilseung. On October 10, the agency released a time table for their third EP, titled Twicecoaster: Lane 1, through their official homepage and SNS, which shows Twice's promotion schedule beginning October 10 until the release of their album on the 24th.[42][43][44] On October 19, Twice revealed their official cheering light with their official colours called "Candy Bong", which is inspired by song "Candy Boy" from their first EP.[45]

In celebration of Twice's first anniversary since debut, the group unveiled their new song "One in a Million", through a live broadcast on Naver V Live on October 20 at 22:30 KST.[46] On October 24, Twicecoaster: Lane 1 and the music video of the laid-back but light and cheerful pop dance song "TT" was released online. Twice held their showcase the same day, where they performed "One in a Million", "Jelly Jelly" and "TT" for the first time.[47][48][49]

On November 11, the music video for "Like Ooh-Ahh" hit 100 million views on YouTube, making Twice the fourth K-pop girl group to reach 100 million views, as well as the first K-pop group to reach this milestone with a debut music video. The music video for "Cheer Up" followed six days later.[50][51] On November 19, Twice's "Cheer Up" won Song of the Year at the 8th Melon Music Awards. It was then followed by another Song of the Year award at the 18th Mnet Asian Music Awards on December 2.[3][4]

On December 5, it was announced through their official SNS channels that the group would be releasing a Christmas edition of Twicecoaster: Lane 1. It was released on December 19 with the same track listing.[52]

Towards the end of the year, YouTube revealed the top 10 K-pop MVs most beloved by South Koreans in 2016. "Cheer Up" and "TT" were ranked 1st and 3rd respectively in that list.[53][54]

2017–present: First solo concert, special album, Signal and Japanese debut

On January 3, 2017, the music video for "TT" hit 100 million views, becoming the fastest K-pop group music video to do so and breaking Twice's own record previously set by "Cheer Up".[55] Later in that same year, "TT" would also become the first video by a K-pop female act to surpass 200 million views.[56]

On January 10, JYP Entertainment announced Twice's first solo concert within just a year and four months after debuting in October 2015. The three-day sold-out concert titled Twice 1st Tour: Twiceland – The Opening was held on February 17–19 at the SK Olympic Handball Gymnasium, and was the first stop of their tour.[57][58][59][60]

On January 18, JYP Entertainment also announced that Twice would release a special album in February after the Korean leg of the concert tour. The special album, named Twicecoaster: Lane 2, is the reissue of Twicecoaster: Lane 1. Lane 2 and its lead single, "Knock Knock", were both released on February 20.[61][62] The album sold 266,645 units in February 2017.[63]

In early February, Twice launched their Japanese website and other social media channels. Large photos and ads of Twice were seen on the walls of busy shopping districts and subway station in Tokyo on February 8. It is also notable that the "TT pose", which is part of the choreography of the group's song "TT", was imitated by several Japanese celebrities on SNS and became popular among teenagers.[64][65][66] On February 24, they officially announced that their Japanese debut with a compilation album titled #Twice was set on June 28, 2017. On the same day, five Japanese morning programs informed viewers of the upcoming debut and featured Twice in an interview.[67][68][69]

In April, JYP Entertainment announced Twice's new Korean album release in May before heading to Japan. On May 1, Twice confirmed the release of their fourth EP titled Signal with the lead track of the same name produced by Park Jin-young. This marked their first collaboration with Park. The EP, along with the music video for "Signal" was released on May 15 at 18:00 KST. It contains six tracks, including "Eye Eye Eyes" co-written by members Jihyo and Chaeyoung, and "Only You" written by former Wonder Girls' member Ha:tfelt.[70][71][72]

On June 14, Twice digitally released "Signal (Japanese ver.)", along with the short version of its music video, as a preview and countdown to album release. A week later, they released the full music video of the Japanese version of "TT", directed by Jimmy of BS Pictures.[73][74] They officially debuted in Japan with the release of #Twice on June 28. It consists of 10 songs including both Korean and Japanese-language versions of their first five singles.[75] On July 2, Twice held their two-part debut showcase titled Touchdown in Japan at Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium, attended by a total of 15,000 people.[76][77][78] #Twice debuted at number 2 on Oricon Albums Chart with 136,157 copies sold within seven days since its release.[9]
