TWICE has made history as the first K-pop act to perform on Amazon Music Live, delivering a show-stopping performance that left fans in awe.

On November 21, TWICE appeared on the U.S. streaming concert series Amazon Music Live, which airs live right after Thursday NFL games.

This popular series has featured top global artists like Ed Sheeran, Megan Thee Stallion, A$AP Rocky, and Lil Wayne. In its third season, TWICE stood out as the first K-pop group to headline the stage, marking another milestone in their career.

TWICE began their set with the iconic I CAN’T STOP ME and kept the energy high with hits like GO HARD, MOONLIGHT SUNRISE, and CRY FOR ME.

Their signature charm was on full display in fan favorites such as FANCY, The Feels, I GOT YOU, and Talk that Talk. Each performance was packed with powerful vocals, dazzling choreography, and endless charisma.

Fans were treated to special moments as TWICE performed solo and unit tracks. Jihyo delivered her soulful hit Killin’ Me Good, Nayeon charmed with ABCD, and Tzuyu shined with Run Away.

MISAMO, the group’s first sub-unit (Mina, Sana, and Momo), performed Identity, showcasing their unique synergy. Adding to the excitement, TWICE previewed their upcoming track Strategy (feat. Megan Thee Stallion), building anticipation for its release on December 6.

This performance is just one of TWICE’s incredible achievements in 2024. Earlier this year, their 13th mini album With YOU-th topped the Billboard 200 chart, and their massive 5TH WORLD TOUR ‘READY TO BE’ spanned 51 shows across 27 countries, drawing 1.5 million fans to venues like SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and MetLife Stadium in New York.

TWICE is now gearing up to release their mini album STRATEGY on December 6 at 2 PM KST (midnight EST). The album’s title track, Strategy (feat. Megan Thee Stallion), promises an exciting collaboration with the Grammy-winning rapper. With this release, TWICE is set to wrap up 2024 as a true global powerhouse, solidifying their title as a top-tier girl group.

IU recently revealed that she watched her own concert film in a public theater, but shockingly, no one recognized her—even when she dropped a hint!

On February 27, a new video featuring IU was released, showing her inside a car on her way to Daejeon.

She excitedly shared, “This is a surprise stage greeting for UAENA! I picked this location through a ladder game when I did stage greetings.”

Previously, IU had let fate decide which city she would visit after her stage greetings. She happily said, “There are UAENAs everywhere I go. Wherever I go, it's a flowery path.” The game ultimately led her to Daejeon.

IU originally hoped to explore the city, saying, “I wanted to visit Daejeon's pride, Sung Sim Dang, and walk around, but my team said it wouldn’t be possible. The lines are too long, and it’s freezing outside.” She sighed, adding, “So, things turned out this way.”

Dressed up for the occasion, IU smiled, saying, “I don’t get to meet UAENAs in Daejeon often, so I wanted to make a surprise appearance looking my best.”

She also joked about enjoying surprise events, adding, “As long as Hanteo oppa drives me safely, I’m happy.”

But what really caught fans' attention was IU’s unexpected confession—she had secretly watched her concert film in a theater, but no one noticed her! “No one recognized me at all. There weren’t that many people, and it was a weekday… but still! I even gave a hint!” she said, sounding both amused and surprised.

Later, when IU finally appeared at the theater, her fans were overwhelmed with emotion. Some even burst into tears, prompting her to gently say, “You really didn’t expect me to come, right?”

After wrapping up her stage greeting, IU laughed at herself, saying, “Wait, did I just do a 40-minute one-woman show? I must have talked so much.”

On her way back to Seoul, IU reflected on the day, sharing, “It was so cold today. I shook hands with all the UAENAs. My hands are usually cold, and since the weather was freezing, I think I made a lot of people’s hands cold, too. But after touching so many warm hands, mine became warm, too. I still haven’t washed them.”

Her love for her fans truly knows no bounds!
