Group TWS (Shin-yu, Do-hoon, Young-jae, Han-jin, Ji-hoon, Kyung-min) has added a 'Platinum' certification from the Japan Recording Association to its accolades. According to the Japan Recording Association on June 10, TWS's fifth mini-album 'NO TRAGEDY' surpassed shipments of 250,000 copies as of May, the month of its release. The Japan Recording Association certifies albums monthly based on cumulative shipment volumes, designating 'Gold' (100,000 copies), 'Platinum' (250,000 copies), and 'Double Platinum' (500,000 copies).

This certification marks the group's second achievement following its Japanese debut single 'Nice to see you again' (original title: 'Hajimemashite'), released last July. Including the fourth mini-album 'play hard', the third mini-album 'TRY WITH US', and the first single album 'Last Bell', a total of five albums have received Gold Disc certification.

'NO TRAGEDY' sold nearly 200,000 copies on its release day, May 4. The album topped Oricon's 'Weekly Album Ranking' and 'Weekly Combined Album Ranking', as well as Billboard Japan's 'Top Album Sales'. It also reached number one and number two on the 'Top Albums' charts in the K-Pop section of Japan iTunes and Apple Music, respectively.

The album ranked 10th on Billboard Japan's 2026 first-half 'Top Album Sales' year-end summary, the highest ranking among fifth-generation K-pop albums. TWS also entered the 'Artist 100', which combines points from the Song Chart and Album Chart.

TWS will release 'Dream With Us', the official cheer song for the South Korea national football team, on June 11. The song carries the message, "If we believe in miracles together, miracles will begin." Following this, the group will hold '2026 TWS TOUR '24/7:FOR:YOU' IN SEOUL' at KSPO DOME in Olympic Park, Songpa-gu, Seoul, on June 27-28, before embarking on a tour across eight Asian cities. All tickets, including those with restricted views, sold out during the initial presale.
