TWS has shed their signature refreshing image, returning with a fierce transformation powered by sharp choreography and unapologetic hip-hop energy.
A New Side of TWS
On September 22, the group dropped the music video for Head Shoulders Knees Toes, the pre-release track from their upcoming third mini album play hard, through their official social media.
Previously known for bright songs like Plot Twist, If I'm the S, Be My N, and Isn't It Cool to Run with Your Heart?, TWS now delivers an intense stage presence and daring performance style.
Dynamic Performance and Visuals
The choreography features high-impact moves, including a daring kip-up from a lying position without the use of hands, demonstrating both strength and agility. Members move in sync with the hook lyric, "Head shoulders knees and toes," creating dynamic body movements that highlight the song's playful yet forceful character.
The music video emphasizes raw energy, focusing on close-ups of the members' expressions and movements. The visuals project resilience and self-assurance, further amplifying the track's message.
Growth Through Hip-Hop
Head Shoulders Knees Toes embodies TWS's free-spirited and unrestrained charm, telling the story of limitless pursuit toward goals through the language of hip-hop. "You can see how the members have grown from fresh-faced youths to stronger artists, shifting from boyish vocals to commanding rap delivery," a source shared.
The upcoming mini album play hard carries the theme of dedicating youth and passion with full force, expanding the group's self-styled genre of "boyhood pop" into new dimensions.
Upcoming Performances
TWS will showcase their performance power at major events, including the first Hi! Ipselenti Alumni festival on September 27 at Korea University's Nokji Field and the ATA Festival 2025 on September 28 at Nanji Hangang Park in Seoul. Their label has promised stages full of spectacle and energy.
With this bold shift, TWS signals a new chapter in their artistry, proving their versatility beyond youthful charm.
