[The Fact | Reporter Jeong Byeong-geun] Group TWS received a 'Gold' certification for the second consecutive time in Japan.
According to the Recording Industry Association of Japan on the 13th, TWS (Shin Yoo, Do Hoon, Young Jae, Han Jin, Ji Hoon, Kyung Min)'s 3rd mini album 'TRY WITH US' surpassed 100,000 cumulative shipments as of April, the month of release, and received a gold disc 'Gold' certification. The Recording Industry Association of Japan awards certifications based on the cumulative monthly album shipments, such as 'Gold' (100,000 copies), 'Platinum' (250,000 copies), and 'Double Platinum' (500,000 copies).
With this, TWS has two consecutive Japanese 'Gold' certified albums, following their first single 'Last Bell'. In particular, this achievement has raised expectations for their future path, as it is an achievement made ahead of their official Japanese debut this summer.
'TRY WITH US', released by TWS on the 21st of last month, is an album that contains the story of youth bravely taking on new challenges. TWS is receiving much love both domestically and internationally for conveying the bright and lively energy of a twenty-year-old through the title song 'Isn't it cool to follow your heart?'.
In fact, this album ranked 2nd on Oricon's 'Weekly Album Ranking' and 'Weekly Combined Album Ranking' (May 5th) and 5th on Billboard Japan's 'Hot Album' (April 30th). In Korea, they swept all the music show trophies, winning a total of 6 crowns, becoming the first 5th generation boy group to achieve a music show grand slam.
TWS will release their Japanese debut single 'Nice to see you again' (original title はじめまして/Hajimemashite) on July 2nd and begin full-scale local activities. 'Nice to see you again' is a work that allows you to feel a special excitement in everyday life like a sparkling summer memory, and contains the refreshing and cool charm of the six members. It includes three songs, including an original Japanese song.
