TWICE Delivers 360-Degree Performance of “THIS IS FOR” at LA Kings Forum

Girl group TWICE performed a 360-degree show as part of their “THIS IS FOR” world tour at the Los Angeles Kings Forum. The four-day event that ran from January 21st featured stunning visual effects, live band performances, and captivating stage acts by the members, receiving enthusiastic responses from fans of all ages known as ONCE.

The most notable aspect of this tour was the introduction of the 360-degree stage, the first of its kind in K-pop history. This stage design allowed members Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu to see fans from every angle, overcoming the limitation of traditional concert setups where audiences could only view the back of the stage. JYP Entertainment carefully prepared everything to ensure all fans had an equal viewing experience, reflecting its dedication to taking care of TWICE’s audience.

The performance consisted of four main sections plus an encore, featuring 32 songs that covered TWICE’s 10-year musical journey. Starting with the opening track “FOUR,” the setlist included hit songs such as “Strategy,” “Make Me Go,” “SET ME FREE,” “I CAN’T STOP ME,” and “Options,” as well as tracks spanning different eras like “TT” from 2016 and “TAKEDOWN” from 2025. Fans waved pink light sticks called candy sticks while perfectly singing along to the lyrics, creating continuous moments of perfect harmony between fans and the idols.

Since their formation in 2015 through the survival show “Sixteen,” TWICE has exerted dominant influence on the global stage beyond South Korea. They won the Song of the Year award for three consecutive years at the MAMA awards in 2018 and held their first world tour in 2019. In 2023, they became the first female K-pop group to sell out SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, USA, and further solidified their global presence by winning the “Breakthrough Artist Award” at the Billboard Music Awards that same year.
