5th-Generation Boy Band TWS to Make Comeback on April 21 with New Song “TRY WITH US” – A Bright and Sincere Theme for Adulthood

The 5th-generation K-pop boy band TWS will return to the global stage on April 21 with their third mini-album, “TRY WITH US.” Composed of six members from PLEDIS Entertainment — Shinyu, Do Hoon, Young Jae, Han Jin, Ji Hoon, and Kyung Min — the group rose to fame as the rising stars of the 5th generation after winning multiple rookie awards at major award shows last year. TWS will hold the “TWS Comeback Showcase ‘TRY WITH US’” at the SOL Travel Hall in Bluesquare Yongsan, Seoul, at 8 p.m. KST on April 21. This showcase will serve as the first appearance of the new song, marking a new chapter alongside their fandom, Fandom. In addition to performing the new track, the members plan to share the album’s production story and unreleased behind-the-scenes content with fans. ## Release of New Song and Global Live Broadcast “TRY WITH US” will be officially released two hours before the showcase, at 6 p.m. KST on April 21. The showcase will be streamed globally via Weverse and the official HYBE Labels YouTube channel, while details on how to attend in person can be found on TWS’s official Weverse community page. ## A Playful yet Sincere Concept of “Let’s Try Being Adults” The new song was created around the playful yet sincere theme of “Try adulting with us.” The official trailer released on March 27 humorously depicted the gap between the idealized adult life shown in movies and reality. Contrasts such as taking stunning photos with high-end cameras versus shooting blurry images with smartphones, or preparing Instagram-worthy meals versus heating instant noodles in a microwave, all contributed to its comedic effect. ## Two Concepts Highlighting Different Aspects of Youth The mini-album is divided into two visual themes: “Try” and “boY.” The “Try” version, released on March 31, captures the members’ playful and genuine moments spent with friends, alone, or engaging in hobbies. It visually represents a delicate balance between self-discovery and the challenges of growing up. On the other hand, the “boY” version, released on April 7, is filmed in black and white to deliver a cinematic and mature aesthetic. The members wear stylish outfits, focusing on individual images to showcase TWS’s refined side. ## Rising Expectations After Winning Rookie Awards TWS made their debut last year with “Sparkling Blue,” revealing the charm of fresh youth, and later proved their ability to create catchy melodies and compelling storytelling with “SUMMER BEAT!”. Since they won numerous rookie awards at major award shows last year, “TRY WITH US” is generating high expectations from both fans and the industry. The mini-album explores the first experiences the group faces as they enter their 20s, delving into new territories. Through sophisticated visuals, playful storytelling, and genuine self-reflection, TWS signals the arrival of a new era centered on growth and authenticity.
