Nope. Not working. My work has restricted mode on YouTube. Are you trying to send me something NSFW or with words like âSexyâ in it? I can watch on my phone but they donât give me free wifi here so Iâll check it out at home.
Theyâre all safe for work even if theyâre sexy. How about this?
Talk about a grueling schedule, between rehearsals, variety shows, talk shows, vlives, their own tv show, work on upcoming songs, it seems they barely have any downtime. Their contract is due up in 2022 -- while we all hope everyone will renew, it's not always a guarantee. Hopefully Jeongyeon's (thanks Lonzo-Lite for the fancam vid) health will get better and she'll be willing to renew as well.
JYPE is really milking Twice for all they can, I've never seen a group more busy than they are. I only follow a handful of kpop groups like BP, RV, Momoland and they're all very laid back compared to what Twice is producing year after year. They all talk about being exhausted, and would probably put that into consideration when they renew.
Saw an article a while ago that they're the hardest working gg in K-pop as far as comebacks at an average of just 120 days. (G)Idle's around 128 days (Cube), Dreamcatcher is at approx 141 days (HFE/DCC). JYP Entertainment is putting Twice through the ringer, no wonder they're feeling exhausted. JYPE ought to find a healthy balance between their business model and the well-being of the members (especially Mina and Jeongyong). At renewal, Twice is supposed to be getting 70/30 vs 50/50 so while there's a financial incentive -- other factors as you have alluded to will weigh-in on their decision.
I just read an article last month that Twice is the biggest kpop group in Japan bigger than BTS and #4 all-time in Japan, a testament to all the work they've put in. JYPE also wants to get Twice as big in the U.S. as they are in Asia which is the primary reason for all these comebacks including one that's supposedly an all english comeback this fall. Curious to see how that looks. _________________ Tacos

Finally got to see the videos. The last one worked which weirdly is a little more um sexy than the previous videos. But yes SSFW videos are welcome! SexySafeForWork.
Iâm guessing youâre a Jeongyeon fan? Sheâs one of my favorites in the group along with Sana/Momo. _________________

It is well deserved, they've managed to take over the top spot within 4 years, well worth all of hard work at endless rehearsals, promo work, tours, and growing the fan base in Japan. If I recall correctly, Twice has 3 Japanese members (Sana/Momo/Mina). Mina was born in San Antonio, TX.
The Japanese versions of their biggest songs sound just as dynamic as the originals. Looking forward to the 7.28 debut of their Japanese album. Perfect World's already climbing fast on Japan's Billboard 100 #24 in just a week (Jul 7) and it wouldn't be a surprise if it lands them another #1.
Hope they do well with their English comeback. I'm sure JYP Entertainment is already planning the promo circuit so that Twice will be quite visible in the US leading up to their English debut. For the ToL promo, there's a vid last month with some of the behind-the-scenes at the Ellen show floating around on YT with Jeongyeon back in the mix.

Jeongyeon seems to be on semi-hiatus. She only took 3 months off before coming back in January, she probably shouldâve done 6-7 months like Mina did. Now looks like theyâre giving her more rest which is why she hasnât done any promos for the last month and why she wasnât in the latest MV for Hospital Playlist. _________________ Tacos

I really like and appreciated the underrated members. If you google most underrated Twice member then youâll get the idea. _________________ Tacos
So many Jeongyeon stans...add me to the list. I am a ONCE. Someone else mentioned Aespa, I highly recommend another group that debuted around the same time as them: STAYC. They're produced by Black Eyed Pilseung who produced a lot of hits for Twice like "TT", "Cheer Up" and "Fancy". You can hear elements of Twice in STAYC like with "ASAP": _________________ Peace & Love

Yes, more recommendations! Good to know! Thanks! _________________

Had no idea Jeongyeon was so underrated, yes I did google it. She really does shine though on their TV and variety show appearances. In fact, I just recently watched one of their appearances in Knowing Bros and the hosts kept teasing her a lot! _________________

Jeongyeon had a procedure done around May '20, about one week before their More and More comeback -- agree that JYPE should've given her a lot more time to get well and fully recuperate. She was not feeling 100%, yet she still toughed it out with the comeback performances on Mnet, SBS, KBS. She's a trooper. Relieved that they're giving her more rest, hope she's resting well and getting better, her health should've been a priority from the start. It's understandable why she couldn't be in the MV, fortunately we do hear her voice.
If you like Loona, maybe checkout WJSN aka Cosmic Girls.
It's impressive to see ĂŠspa with this concept along with their AI Avatars, they seem to have the most momentum out of the current 4th generation groups. Next Level is wickedly addictive.
Looks like I already had WJSN on an earlier playlist earlier with DC ë늌ìșìł and Twice. Thanks for the recommendations!
I am bit old old school with the kpop gg. Sistar, After School, 2NE1.
Thank you! Will checkout 2NE1 and After School -- I still have Sistar's "I Swear" as one my all-time faves, it's just one of those songs could be on repeat 24/7. Not to mention that MV of them in Saipan enjoying a carefree summer having the time of their lives and just enjoying life. Halcyon days, I tell you, halcyon days.
#TwiceDeservesBetter is trending, thereâs a new controversy with JYPE.
Where would JYPE be without Twice? After all they've been through to help the company, they get disrespected and thrown under the bus.
From what I understand JYPE is hoping that one of their boy groups will surpass Twice as their highest selling artist?
Two thoughts:
1. I hate kpop boy groups, I really do. They all act the same like theyâre so dreamy and they all have the same haircuts.
2. Itâs not going to happen, not for another few years.
100%. I just ignore the kpop boy groups, they all seem to be a re-worked take of a forgettable era back here in the 90s which finally went away. The idea of suppressing Twice's sales to prop up that weak boy band in order to bring in more investors is disappointing in a modern era. That old patricharchal society mindset needs go by by way of the dodo bird.
I like BTSâs Dynamite but aside from that I donât follow boy groups either. Only ever watch them when they interact with the girl groups. _________________
Good for them. Regarding Twice, one would think JYPE would secure their biggest money maker ahead of their contract expiring next year. Instead I theyâre throwing money on other groups to outdo Twice. _________________ Tacos

She was the most recognizable member in Korea when they first started. Her sister is an actress, and she herself appeared in numerous TV shows when debuting with Twice. So JYPE started promoting the other members. Jeongyeon is one of Twiceâs lead singers like Nayeon but yet gets the least lines. _________________ Tacos

Maybe JYPE have a feeling they might not be able to afford TWICEâs contract. If they leave JYPE I wouldnât mind, as long as all of them stay together, theyâll be successful anywhere they decide to go. _________________ Tacos
