Twice has been loved for a long time, taking its first step in the music industry with its debut song 'OOH-AHHH' (elegantly) in October 2015 and producing numerous hits. Along with his activities, he has shone his presence around the world and swept various leading overseas awards, including the 2023 Billboard Women In Music Awards. In 2024, which marks its 10th year of activities, it is firmly established as a 'global top girl group', adding various records such as the title of music videos with more than 100 million views by female groups around the world and the first comeback in 2024 with 'With YOU-th' (With You-s) to top the U.S. Billboard main chart ' Billboard 200'.
The world tour 'TWICE 5TH WORLD TOUR 'READY TO BE'('Ready to Be') was the largest and fifth world tour of its own, driving its popularity by meeting numerous global fans. The world tour, which started in Seoul in April 2023, will be held at large global venues such as Japan, North America, Australia, Europe, Southeast Asia, and South America, and has gained a reputation as a 'stadium artist'. In particular, on July 27 and 28, the first K-pop girl group and the first overseas female artist to enter Nissan Stadium in Kanagawa, Japan, will be on stage to mark the splendid finale of the performance of 'READY TO BE'in JAPAN SPECIAL'('READY TO BE'IN JAPAN SPECIAL).
Twice has dominated major charts, including Oricon, Tower Records, and Billboard Japan, since its official debut in Japan on June 28, 2017 with the Japanese best album '#TWICE' (Hashtag TWICE). The albums released were certified as platinum albums by the Japan Records Association in succession, and at the same time they appeared, they received public attention. Since 2018, he has been honored with various awards at the Japan Gold Disc Awards for three consecutive years, and has achieved great achievements by lifting the trophy of the Best Picture Award at the Japan Record Awards with his third single album 'Wake Me Up' released in 2018. Those who have achieved meaningful results with a variety of discography with bright and healthy energy and charm continue to grow, setting a milestone of exceeding 20 million cumulative sales with the total number of albums released in both Korea and Japan as of May this year.
Twice attracted about 15,000 audiences for the second performance with its official debut showcase held at the Tokyo Gymnasium in July 2017, and succeeded in entering the arena venue very quickly about a year after its official debut by conducting its first arena tour as part of the release of its first regular Japanese album in September 2018. In March 2019, the K-pop girl group's first Japanese dome tour 'TWICE DOME TOUR 2019 "#Dreamday"(2019 "#Dreamday") was held at Kyocera Dome Osaka, Tokyo Dome, and Bantherin Nagoya Dome, attracting about 220,000 viewers. In April 2022, he visited Tokyo Dome again with his fourth world tour 'TWICE 4TH WORLD TOUR 'III'('3') and proved his hot popularity by setting a record of selling out three single concerts. In May 2023, for the first time in the history of a K-pop girl group, she completed a stadium tour with 'TWICE 5TH WORLD TOUR'READY TO BE'in JAPAN' ('Ready to Be'in Japan) at Yanma Stadium Nagai and Ajinomoto Stadium in Osaka, Japan. A total of four dome performances were added at the Vanterin Nagoya Dome on December 16 and 17 last year, and the Fukuoka Paypei Dome on December 27 and 28, and the eight local performances alone attracted a total of 370,000 audiences, demonstrating a powerful influence.
Twice, who visited Osaka Janma Stadium Nagai on July 13-14 and Tokyo's Ajinomoto Stadium on July 20-21 for the first time in about a year and two months as a special performance as part of their fifth world tour, will hold a single concert at Nissan Stadium on the 27th and 28th and engrave the first record in the performance company. Not only does it have to be supported by solid crowd mobilization, but due to the limitation that only a few teams can perform a year, it proudly puts the name TWICE on the list of entry to Nissan Stadium, Japan's largest stadium, considered a 'dream stage', and leaves a clear mark on the group's career. The performance of TWICE, which will take place on the stage of Nissan Stadium on July 2, 2017, which has expanded the size of the audience to about 10 times compared to the Tokyo Gymnasium, is drawing keen attention.
Through its 51st large-scale world tour in 27 regions around the world, TWICE has achieved remarkable results as a 'Global Stadium Headliner'. In June and July 2023, it entered and sold out Los Angeles SoFi Stadium and New York MetLife Stadium, one of the largest stadium venues in the U.S. for the first time by a global women's group, and proved its global presence by recruiting a total of 250,000 people at 13 performances in nine North American regions. In November 2023, it was the first K-pop group to perform solo at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, Australia, and in February 2024, it sold out for the first time for a K-pop girl group at Allianz Parqui in Sao Paulo, Brazil. On top of that, he staged several large stadiums, including Jakarta International Stadium in Jakarta, Indonesia, Mexico City Porosol, Mexico, and the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, USA, and elevated his status as a "stadium artist".
