TWS drops new single before upcoming EP release |

A powerful new single

According to HYBE Press release, Rising boy band TWS is gearing up for their comeback with the release of a new single, ‘Head Shoulders Knees Toes,’ which will be featured on their upcoming fourth EP, ‘play hard,’ scheduled for October 13. A teaser for the track’s music video was uploaded to HYBE’s official YouTube channel at midnight on September 21, ahead of the full video premiering at 6 p.m. on September 22.

A shift in musical style

Unlike their earlier bright and youthful sound, TWS is taking a bold step away from their signature boyish pop vibe. The teaser hinted at a darker and more powerful atmosphere with hip-hop influences, signaling a transformation in the group’s artistic direction. Fans who admired TWS for their fresh image are now eager to see how this new style broadens their musical portfolio.

Part of a larger comeback

‘Head Shoulders Knees Toes’ will be included in the tracklist of ‘play hard,’ which marks TWS’s first album in six months since the release of their third EP, ‘Try With Us,’ back in April. Preorders for the new album opened on September 22 at 11 a.m., and anticipation has already built up with strong support across fan communities.

TWS’s journey so far

Since debuting in January 2024 with their EP ‘Sparkling Blue’ and hit title track ‘Plot Twist,’ TWS has steadily captured a wide audience. Songs like ‘If I’m S, Can You Be My N?’ and ‘Countdown!’ cemented their position as storytellers of teenage romance. With ‘play hard,’ the group now sets out to showcase a more mature concept, expanding their reach beyond their initial image.
