Boy Group TWS Kicks Off Grammy Museum’s “Hybe: We Believe In Music” K-Pop Exhibit With a Bang

Hosts Jung Yeon-jin and Kim Woo-seok, along with members from Korean pop band TWS from Hybe’s Pledis Entertainment sub-label encased themselves in front of a giant photo of them at the latest pop-up museum Grammy Museum Aug. 1. 

To celebrate the opening of the museum’s highly anticipated “Hybe: And so no stranger to live performances for this rookie group, they recently join We Believe In Music, A Grammy Museum Pop up as well as Global Spin Live. This was a different setting for the series and was hosted at the rooftop of the downtown Los Angeles museum and the refreshment included Japchae Korean stir fried glass noodles with vegetables, fried chicken and so on. 
 
Seven members, Shinyu, Dohoon, Youngjae, Hanjin, Jihoon, Kyungmin of the rookie group also had their first KCON L. A. convention. The K-Pop festival was a sensitive leap for TWS (who started only in January) in the international market, and as Jihoon said, the motivation for the group to continue to develop as a team. 
 
Performing at the festival was amazing,” the 18 year old said to The Hollywood Reporter of the experience performing at the festival. He added: Hong style dance said, “This is our first time having a stage in U. S. , so we learned a lot. ” The group performed several times throughout the weekend, including a special performance during The CW’s live broadcast of the final night’s concert at Cyrpto. com Arena. 
 
At the Grammy Museum TWS sat down with moderator, Emily Mei and performed to a selected number of fans who managed to secure tickets for the event before the show was fully booked. This group completed several songs including the debut single ‘‘plot twist’’, from the repertoire Sparkling Blue, which continues to top the charts in Korea, half a year after its release, as of the time of putting this writing, occupies the 17th line on the charts of Streaming & Digital songs on the Circle Chart in Korea. Their latest single, “If I’m S, Can You Be My N?” came out in June and is still steadily rising through the Korean charts; at the moment it claimed mid-20s for the streaming and digital charts. 
 
Of the six performers, Sparkling Blue has been successful in its early years, although the group noted that the group had several feelings when recording the recently released Summer Beat! Either way, it was a mix of excitement and nervousness, Dohoon said through a translator to THR. “We just tried to concentrate on extending ourselves to the maximum. ” 
 
It appears that TWS has not let their newfound stature of being a banner IP school get to their heads as the first year of the school progresses to the second semester. “Everything is new,” I repeated what Kyungmin told me. “It’s been feeling amazing for us and there are opportunities that are provided for groups like us. 
 
Following the boy group’s performance, fans were invited to be among the first to see the Grammy Museum’s newest Hybe-focused K-Pop pop-up exhibit, “Hybe: We Believe In Music. ” In the context of the MCA’s two-year focus on K-Pop and exhibition and programming, the exhibit includes several groups from Korean entertainment conglomerate sub-labels. 
 
It opened officially on the 2nd of August. It has contents on BTS, Seventeen, TXT, ENHYPEN, Le Sserafim, ZICO, fromis_9, Boynextdoor, TWS & TEAM, Illit and KATSEYE and spans about 12 years of K-Pop history. 
 
Of course, the main focus is BTS, which is only explainable given the theme of the exhibit. There is the first set, the clothing from which is inspired by one version of the Proof anthology album, and the second set of outfits that the members of the seven-piece boy group wore in the “Yet To Come (The Most Beautiful Moment)” music video. It also introduces a series of events of the supergroup since their debut in 2013, and more than 70 polaroids of the idols from 2018. 
 
Another fun section is seventeen‘s music video fashion room that includes outfits from the music videos “Maestro,” Tomorrow x Together’s “Sugar Rush Ride,” Enhypen’s “Sweet Venom,” and Le Sserafim’s “Easy. ” Furthermore, there’s the creative process room with videos by three of Hybe’s producers and five of its musicians. Also, the accessories and jewels by fromis_9, BoyNextDoor, TWS, &Team and Illit are showcased in a separate room. 
 
At least one screen in each group has a music video looping in the exhibit by the time of the visitors’ arrival. In what seems to be the museum’s bid to make the exhibit even more immersive, visitors get to sing along with BTS’ ‘Dynamite,’ TXT ‘LO$ER=LO♡ER’ and Seventeen’s ‘Aju Nice’ at a karaoke room; or perhaps randomly dance to clips of music videos at the random play dance room. In the dance room, more items from Hybe’s chairman Bang Si-Hyuk who is also referred to as Hitman Bang are displayed, all of which is mostly books that were inspirations towards the BTS songs lyrics and names of albums.
