Twice will be participating in the "73rd NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen"

Quote from Armedryu

Rare Celebrate Performances, we barely have those to watch

Yasss. I guess we can't say that anymore though, since they performed it at their Japan fansign last month. As well as the Japanese TV show they went on a few months ago.

I actually didn't realize this was professionally done until they started looking at the cameras

Oh yes, always good to see more! And Twice really come alive in front of an crowd.

Such good performers!!!

Yep! I can't wait

And I can't believe I forgot but they already performed Celebrate in front of the people who attended their fan meeting in Japan at the beginning of October lol

Quote from Armedryu

They dont invite any 3rd gen groups I think? At least the girl groups.....

Reminds me of how Studio Choom focuses on 4th gen groups now.

Twice hasn't been on since Alcohol Free!!

I mean, Love Dive was huge, and LSFM has Sakura, so I think it kinda makes sense tbh.

Kohaku has been floundering in viewership the last few years. They needed something to boost those ratings.

LSFM did amazing in Japan too, Fearless was a top 10 hit iirc.

But nothing compared to normal Korean comebacks, where we can see on Music Bank, Inkigayo, MCountdown, etc, sometimes twice in two weeks

YESSSS. After LSF and IVE's announcement, I was wondering if TWICE would attend as well.

TWICE antis can shut up now. They are still the most popular GG in Japan.

Quote from stan12345

The invitation of two rookie kpop groups makes this event feel a lot less prestigious then it used to be

It has more value to IVE and Lessarifim due to their Ethnic Japanese Members that for Kpop groups without them that will be doing the normal Korean New Years Shows.

Have to say, no #1 hit and attending Kohaku seems sus to me. Most of the comments also have mixed response to LSF and IVE's invitation.

The fact Kep1er isn't invited when Wa Da Da is certified platinum in Japan just makes it weirder.

LD has 100M streams, eleven 50M and after like over 30M streams. LD reached the top 10 in both Spotify and Apple Music japan. Their debut album is RIAJ certified only twice, Kepler and IVE reached this milestone this year.

Twice is a wall but let’s not act IVE isn’t popular and LSRF has literally Sakura.

Not surprised with Kepler, their company is shit.

Official Statement out already

Congrats to the nueve

It looks like groups with Japanese members have been invited. Congratulations though!

amazing
