TWICE closed out the London leg of their THIS IS FOR World Tour on June 5. It wrapped up a U.K. run that fans had been counting down to for months.
The nine-member K-pop group is managed by Seoul-based JYP Entertainment and has been on an ambitious international stretch with the THIS IS FOR tour. London is one of multiple cities on the global itinerary. The official @twicetagram Instagram account signed off on the city with a warm thank-you: “Thank you, LONDON,” alongside a blue heart emoji.
London felt it. The post drew over 155,000 likes on Instagram. For a K-pop act posting from a European stop, that kind of engagement doesn’t happen by accident. TWICE‘s fanbase, known as ONCE, is organized and global. They travel between cities for shows and stream from every time zone.
TWICE debuted under JYP Entertainment in 2015. Since then, the group has grown into one of K-pop’s most recognized acts on the world stage. They’ve stacked chart hits in South Korea and built a global following. A proper U.K. arena date reflects that reach. London books acts it expects to fill seats. TWICE filled them.
K-pop’s presence in Europe has grown steadily over the past several years. Acts like BTS, Blackpink, and Stray Kids helped build those audiences. TWICE is now a firm part of that wave. For a group at their level, a London arena slot is part of the standard global circuit.
The THIS IS FOR tour is one of TWICE’s biggest international runs yet. The name has resonated with fans. They’ve taken it as a nod to every ONCE who has followed the group across nearly a decade of music and choreography.
Fans at the London shows came away with a lot to share. TWICE’s live performances are a huge draw for ONCE. The group performs in Korean, Japanese, and English, and that range comes through in a live set. The choreography is tight. London got the full version.
After London, the tour rolls on. ONCE online has been circulating setlist details and fan videos between dates. That activity keeps the hype alive from city to city. TWICE has built that sustained response through consistent releases and years of international touring.
The remaining stops on the THIS IS FOR World Tour have a lot to live up to. Based on what London just delivered, that shouldn’t be a problem.
