TWICE will be making their comeback with a new full-length album this July, according to an announcement made by their agency JYP Entertainment on May 19. This will be TWICE's fourth full album, coming approximately 3 years and 8 months after their third full album "Formula of Love: O+T=<3," which was released in November 2021. The upcoming album also marks their first comeback in 8 months since their 14th mini-album "STRATEGY," released on December 6, 2024. 

The new album is drawing particular attention as it follows TWICE's fifth world tour "READY TO BE," which attracted 1.5 million spectators last year, and is expected to showcase the group's further growth and artistic evolution. During their recent world tour, TWICE solidified their global presence with 51 performances across various countries and regions worldwide. Additionally, TWICE is scheduled to perform as a headliner at the major music festival "Lollapalooza Chicago," taking place at Grant Park in Chicago, Illinois, on August 3 (local time). Fans are eagerly anticipating whether the group will perform new songs from their upcoming album at this prestigious event. 

Beyond their world tour, TWICE made headlines in April when they appeared as special guests at all six shows of British band Coldplay's concerts at Goyang General Sports Stadium in Gyeonggi Province. The group performed one-hour sets before Coldplay's main shows and collaborated with the band on "WE PRAY," a track Coldplay has been releasing with various artists from countries they visit since October last year. Coldplay's concerts drew 50,000 attendees per show, totaling a record-breaking 300,000 spectators for a foreign artist's concert series in Korea. TWICE captivated this massive audience with their performances, earning enthusiastic responses. 

As the group progressed through their sets, they demonstrated the experience and confidence built through numerous world tours, once again winning the hearts of Korean audiences. As a group personally selected by Coldplay and now established as a global brand in their own right, anticipation is mounting for what music and messages TWICE will deliver in their first full album in nearly four years.
