TWS has proven its rapid growth.

The group's mini 2nd album 'SUMMER BEAT!' set a new sales record for its first week. According to Hanteo Chart, it sold 513,892 copies in the first week after its release.

This is approximately twice the amount of their previous album. Their mini 1st album recorded 260,881 copies in its first week. They have shown remarkable growth in just about 6 months since their debut.

They are also receiving good responses in Japan. 'SUMMER BEAT!' topped the Oricon Daily Album Ranking on the 24th of last month. It is currently at 2nd place in the latest chart, maintaining a top position.

Their agency analyzed, "The prolonged impact of the debut title track 'First Meeting~' played a significant role," and added, "The overall fandom for TWS has grown significantly."

Indeed, they caused a syndrome-level sensation in the first half of this year. At the time of release, they topped charts on Bugs and Apple Music. They have remained in the top ranks on major music charts for over 5 months.

The mini 2nd album is also gradually gaining popularity. The title track 'If I'm S, Be My N' debuted at 94th on Melon's 'Top 100'. It rose to a highest rank of 55th.

Meanwhile, TWS is expected to carry out various activities with their new album.
