Group TWS (Tours) shone with their presence by setting a new self-record for initial album sales with their 5th mini album 'NO TRAGEDY'.

According to Hanteo Chart on the 4th, TWS (Shin Yu, Do-hoon, Young-jae, Han-jin, Ji-hoon, Kyung-min)'s new album sold 1.11277 million copies during the first week of release (count period: April 27 to May 3), securing the top spot on the weekly album chart. This album sold approximately 830,000 copies on its first day of release (April 27), instantly surpassing the performance metrics of previous works. By the fourth day, on the 30th of last month, it had already reached the 1st million mark, joining the ranks of 'million sellers'.

The title track 'Follow You (You, You)' entered major domestic music charts including Melon, Genie Music, and Bugs immediately after its release, kicking off its trendsetting momentum. It ranked 4th on YouTube Korea's 'Daily Popular Music Video' chart (as of April 28) and is showing a rapid upward trend, surpassing 20 million views just six days after its release.

The 'Follow Challenge' utilizing the catchy hook section "Dda-rum" from 'Follow You (You, You)' is also a hot topic. The choreography is characterized by expressing the desire to follow a loved one through rhythmic steps. The challenge audio soared to 2nd place on Instagram's 'Reels Trending Audio' chart (as of 1 p.m. on May 3). An application version with the concept of 'copying' that replicates the other person's movements exactly is also spreading.

Music show performances also received high praise. TWS performed 'Follow You (You, You)' and the album track 'I Will Become All Your Possibilities' on Mnet's 'M Countdown' for their comeback debut week, followed by KBS2's 'Music Bank', MBC's 'Show! Music Core', and SBS's 'Inkigayo'. Their performances, which maximized sophistication based on smooth movements rooted in the house genre, drew a fervent response described as "a new variation of freshness."

Meanwhile, TWS will continue their second week of comeback activities by appearing on MBC every1's 'Show! Champion' on May 6. They will then travel to Japan to participate in 'KCON JAPAN 2026' on May 8 and 'Kstyle Party 2026' on May 9, meeting with global fans.
