Moreover, “TWICE Records” will have a week-long operation which will begin on October 18 and last until October 24.
Aside from that, the “Set Me Free” singers will also hold an exclusive fan meeting event titled “2023 TWICE Fan Meeting: Once Again.” Additionally, the fan meeting will have two shows – 1 PM and 7PM – on October 21 at the Olympic Hall in Seoul.
As the tickets for the event were immediately sold out upon its release, JYPE announced that the final performance at 7PM will be accessible through a live stream on the platform Beyond LIVE. So that global fans will also be able to celebrate the group’ anniversary, as well.
In relation to the fan meeting, TWICE released a dress code notice for the fans. Revealed to be a 90s-themed event, the girl group is hoping to time-travel with ONCEs as they reminisce their journey since debut.
