TWICE Talks About What They've Been Into Lately, Choosing Their Comeback Hair, And More

On June 1, TWICE made their comeback with a special Naver V Live for their ninth mini album “MORE & MORE“!

Regarding their first comeback in nine months, Jihyo commented, “While we’ve done bright songs in the past, I think this song is a new concept and therefore a new challenge.” Jeongyeon talked about feeling pressured, saying, “Since we were away for a long time, I felt pressured about whether we would live up to ONCE’s expectations. However, once the song was released to a great response, I was happy that we were still receiving so much love.”

TWICE also shared detailed descriptions of what they’ve been up to and into lately. Nayeon shared, “Earlier, I hit my head on a desk so there’s a bump. This is too much information. It’s not a mosquito bite.” Momo revealed she’s gotten a dog, saying, “I’m raising it well. It’s backstage today too.”

Sana commented, “I originally didn’t like tomato juice. I only ate cherry tomatoes, but I’ve overcome this. Nayeon said plain tomato juice was good, so I tried it even though I was scared, but it was good. I came to work after drinking it today.” Jihyo shared, “I’ve been tanning with Chaeyoung. Since it’s summer, we’re tanning.”

Jeongyeon explained her love for computer games, saying, “I’ve recently been into the Netmarble card matching game. I played it in our dorm with Jihyo and Mina, and it was fun. I’ve discovered a method to do well.” Mina shared, “Recently I’ve been liking the sound of rain so I fall asleep listening to sounds of rain, lightning, and thunder on YouTube. It’s so nice. You just have to listen to it quietly so it sounds like it’s coming from outside your window.”

Dahyun shared that she’s been practicing the piano, while Chaeyoung commented, “I’ve just been thinking ‘I have to make masks.’ I wanted to try making them,” adding a laugh. Lastly, Tzuyu shared, “I’ve been doing pilates, but since our choreography is so hard this time I’ve been receiving many massages. When I go to get massages, I try my best to walk there.”

Sana also commented on how happy she was that TWICE could make their return as nine members after Mina missed their “Feel Special” promotions due to symptoms of anxiety.

After revealing that “MORE & MORE” is their hardest choreography to date, TWICE also picked the point of their new dance to be their synchronization. Jeongyeon explained, “The point of ‘MORE & MORE’ is the extravagant performance and the united choreography of the nine of us. If there aren’t nine of us, we cannot do this dance. It isn’t the same when you dance alone. It’s really hard.”

They expressed disappointment that they couldn’t meet with their fans due to COVID-19 and commented, “Since our choreography is so hard, while practicing we would say that it would be so difficult to perform this without our fans.”

When asked to pick the most memorable episode while preparing this album, Jeongyeon picked the recording of their title track, saying it was the most they had ever recorded. Dahyun added, “When I would sing I would only think about pitch and the beat, but I was told to do it again because there was no emotion. It was so fascinating that they could pinpoint that.”

Tzuyu commented, “Both while recording and filming the music video, they told us to pay a lot of attention to our emotions, so that was hard.” The girls also picked their music video scenes filmed with a drone on Jeju Island as a highlight. Jeongyeon shared, “The person was the best drone manager in the world, but they came to Jeju Island just to film for us.”

For the “killing part” of “MORE & MORE,” TWICE picked both Chaeyoung and Dahyun’s raps.

The members also spoke about changing their appearance for this album, with Momo sharing, “I bleached my hair for the first time in three years. I’m taking really good care of it.”

Nayeon explained why she didn’t bleach her hair, saying, “This is the shortest I’ve ever cut my hair in my life. I wanted to change something but my hair is very thick and curly. I thought bleaching would be difficult, so I just cut it.”

For the first time since “Cheer Up,” Mina also bleached her hair. She shared, “It was orange back then. I was originally going to cut it short, but I couldn’t because it felt wasteful since my hair had grown out so well. I may do it for our next comeback. However, I’m worried I might look too much like my mom,” making her members laugh.

Jeongyeon revealed she had initially dyed her own hair, sharing, “I wanted to bleach my hair blonde and then self-dye it. But I failed. Since my roots had grown in so much, I bleached it again but it came out green. Even the director of the salon had to come to discuss it. Since we had no time, instead of purple, we went for a more ambiguous color. I think next time I’ll have to cut it short. I’ll likely have to just cut it off.”

Immediately after its release, TWICE’s “MORE & MORE” has soared to the top of multiple major realtime charts!
