TWICE’s 4th full-length album took first place on Hanteo Chart’s weekly album chart.

TWICE’s fourth full-length album ‘THIS IS FOR’, released on July 11th, topped the weekly album chart on Hanteo Chart, a domestic music chart aggregation site.As of the 11th, the day of release, they were in the top 5 of the iTunes Top Albums charts in the US and Japan, and were the most streamed girl group on Spotify globally, adding to their impressive record.

On the morning of the 15th, JYP Entertainment released behind-the-scenes cuts of the music video for the title song “THIS IS FOR” of TWICE’s new album, raising the mood.In the images, the nine members harmoniously show off diverse styles while also showing off their global pop star aura with their charismatic appearances.

This music video, which uses various filming techniques, unfolds naturally as it crosses time and space.In addition to the performance that is impossible to take your eyes off, it uses actual NG scenes that contain a natural atmosphere to stimulate repeated playback.Also, as the title song ‘THIS IS FOR’ is a high-tension track that sings of confidence, self-confidence, and inner strength, it brings out a cheerful charm.
