On the 17th, Tzuyu posted on her social media account, “Now that the tour we’ve been on together for a year has come to an end, I’m feeling a mix of emotions. Among them, I think the one that stands out the most is a sense of pride.” She added, “I was able to experience and learn so much through this tour, and that was the greatest reward for me.”
She continued, “Knowing that ‘ONCE’ (the fan club name) is always with me, no matter where I am, has been a great source of strength, and I feel I’ve gained even more courage to move forward as an artist.”
Tzuyu then addressed the fans, saying, “Although it’s a bit sad that the tour has ended, I promise that ‘ONCE’ will stay by our side for a long, long time. Let’s stay together for a long, long time.”
TWICE held the encore performances of their world tour “THIS IS FOR” at the K-SPO Dome in Olympic Park, Songpa-gu, Seoul, from the 10th to the 12th. With this, they concluded their tour schedule, which had spanned one year since July of last year.
Meanwhile, all TWICE members are currently in discussions with their agency, JYP Entertainment, regarding contract renewals. Amid this, rumors that some members—including Tzuyu, Jihyo, Jeongyeon, and Chaeyoung—would not be renewing their contracts have recently surfaced, drawing significant attention from fans.
JYP stated that it is still in discussions with the TWICE members regarding contract renewals and will make an announcement as soon as the matter is finalized.
