Twice (Hangul: 트와이스; stylized as TWICE) is a South Korea-based 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 mini-album The Story Begins.[1]
History
Pre-debut: New JYP girl group and Sixteen
On December 19, 2013, JYP Entertainment 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.[2] On February 27, 2014, JYP trainees Lena and Cecilia were confirmed as members of the group, while other rumored members included JYP trainees Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Jisoo (later Jihyo) and Minyoung.[3][4] After Cecilia's departure, JYP 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 JYP's upcoming seven member girl group would be decided through Sixteen, a competition survival show that would air on Mnet later that year.[5] 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. I want to upgrade this next group by adding elements like hip-hop and rap."[6]
The show began on May 5 and ended with Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, and Chaeyoung as the seven Twice members. JYP 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 JYP himself since he felt the group needed someone with Momo's performance abilities.[7] The decision was controversial at the time with many people complaining about eliminated contestants being able to join the group.[8]
Twice was to debut in late 2015.[9][10]
On July 10, 2015, Twice opened their official Instagram account with the first picture of the nine members posing together.[11] JYP Entertainment released TwiceTV, a web series that shared the members' hopes and stories through interviews and followed them as they prepared for their debut.[12]
2015: Debut with The Story Begins
On October 7, 2015, JYP Entertainment launched the band's official website and announced via SNS that the group would debut with the mini-album 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.[13] The composition team included Black Eyed Pilseung, known for composing successful releases such as Miss A's "Only You."[14][15] On October 20, the album and the song's music video were released online and through the Naver V App.[16] The group held a live showcase the same day, where they performed "Like OOH-AHH" along with dance tracks "Must Be Crazy" and "Do It Again."[17][18] The music video hit 50 million views within five months of their debut and became the most-viewed debut music video for any K-pop group.[19][20][21] By December, Twice had signed ten CF contracts totaling earnings of KRW1.8 billion.[22] 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.[23][24]
2016–present: Page Two and TWICEcoaster : LANE 1
Twice's second extended play, 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.[25][26] The music video of the title track hit 10 million views on YouTube within five days.[27] Twice won their first music program award on May 5, 2016, on M! Countdown, exactly one year after the initial airing of Sixteen.[28] This was soon followed by wins on Music Bank and Inkigayo.[29]
On August 16, 2016, 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 this year.[30]
On September 23, 2016, Twice released their two official colours, namely Apricot (Pantone 712 C) and Neon Magenta (Pantone 812 C), which signify the group and their fan club called "Once".[31][32] Five days later, JYP Entertainment announced that the group is preparing for a late October comeback with a new album and another title track by Black Eyed Pilseung, though the final schedule has not been set. On October 10, the agency released a time table for their third extended play, 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.[33][34][35] On October 19, Twice revealed their official light with their official colours called "Candy Bong", which is inspired by song "Candy Boy" from their first mini album.[36] 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.[37]
On October 24, 2016, 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.[38][39][40]
On November 11, 2016, the music video for "Like OOH-AHH" hit 100 million views on YouTube, which makes Twice became the fourth K-pop girl group to reach 100 million views, as well as the first debut music video for any K-pop group to reach this milestone. The music video for "Cheer Up" followed six days later, becoming the fastest K-pop group music video to reach 100 million views.[41][42]
On December 5, 2016, it was announced through their official Twitter that the group would be releasing a Christmas edition of TWICEcoaster : LANE 1. It will be released on December 19th.[43]
