Pan-Asian girl group Twice released comeback schedule for the group's new track "Cheer Up!". The girls will return with a cheerleader concept with a showcase on April 25.
Twice is to reveal the track list and start pre-orders for their new album on Tuesday and a series of teaser images and videos will be released throughout next week. A total of 7 teasers are ready to be released, and on the 24th, the girls will carry out an event through the "V" app.
The nine-member girl group gained attention from the fans since their pre-debut, because the girls are from a survival audition program "SIXTEEN", which was aired on MNet, 2015. Twice is special by the Korean music scene standards since four of its members are foreigners. Sana, Mina, Momo are Japanese, and Tzu-yu is from Taiwan.
According to Gaon Charts, Twice made an impressive debut in October 2015 by selling 34,991 albums during its first two months of albums release, and by adding 14,913 albums sold during December, the girls were ranked in the top five of the girls groups who sold the most albums during that period.
The girls' debut song "Like Ooh Ahh" also received fans' love for a long period of time. The debut song managed to stay in the top 10 of the music charts since its release until February 2016. This is considered a great achievement in the Korean music scene since its flooding with girl groups and it's very difficult for them to remain in the top ten for more than a month.
