The group TWS heated up their first fan meeting. The members elevated the happiness of their fans with their tireless energy throughout the long runtime.
TWS (Shin Yoo, Do Hoon, Young Jae, Han Jin, Ji Hoon, Kyung Min) held their first fan meeting '2025 TWS 1ST FANMEETING <42:CLUB> IN SEOUL' at the Handball Stadium in Olympic Park, Songpa-gu, Seoul from the 14th to the 16th.
Tickets for this fan meeting sold out in just 10 minutes during the pre-sale, proving TWS's ticket power. A total of over 14,000 fans, including those who watched online from 40 countries/regions, enjoyed the fan meeting.
TWS's passionate energy stood out. The members constantly ran around the extended stage and the first and second floors to get closer to the fans. After completing all the prepared encore stages, they came back out and sang 'hey! hey!' several times, which was not scheduled, and created a runtime of up to 4 hours and 20 minutes with different talks and missions for each session.
Particularly, the stage that was revealed for the first time drew cheers from the fans. TWS decorated the beginning and end of the fan meeting by performing their mini album's tracks 'You+Me=7942', 'Fire Confetti', and the single album's track 'Your Name (Highlight)'. Additionally, they filled the setlist with performances that fans wanted to see, including 'BFF', 'first hooky', 'The First Meeting Doesn't Go as Planned', 'If I'm S, You Be My N', and 'The Last Festival'.
The cover stage showcased TWS's new charm. Shin Yoo, Do Hoon, and Young Jae formed a unit called 'Hunjaeyu' and passionately performed 'Jeans' by BSS, showcasing their playful dance moves. The younger line, Han Jin, Ji Hoon, and Kyung Min, chose NCT U's 'Make A Wish (Birthday Song)' and delivered a stylish performance. They reappeared in uniforms and performed the agency's senior group After School's 'Bang!' together, showcasing their signature synchronized dance.
At the end of the performance, TWS expressed their excitement, saying, "I couldn't sleep well because I was so excited. You all look so beautiful from the stage. I want to be with the 42s for a long time. Let's never forget the feelings we share right now." They also wrote long letters to convey their sincere feelings and shared tearful gratitude with each other, providing a touching moment.
Having successfully concluded their first fan meeting, TWS is heading to Japan. They will hold '2025 TWS 1ST FANMEETING <42:CLUB> IN JAPAN' at the Musashino Forest Sports Plaza Main Arena in Tokyo on March 15-16, meeting local fans three times.
