TWICE Teases New Japanese Single 'Wake Me Up’ With Chic MV
TWICE has given its fans a dose of good vibes when they dropped the official music video of their latest Japanese single "Wake Me Up" this week. The nine members of the female K-pop group brought out tons of sunshine in their very vibrant video.
About a week ago, the group released promotional photos for "Wake Me Up." The girls look more mature in the photos. It turns out, however, that they look even cuter and younger in the "Wake Me Up" MV than in the "What Is Love?" music video.
In the "Wake Me Up" clip, the TWICE idols portray some chic school girls. The video switches between different settings and funky outfits as the girls cheerfully sing and dance to the upbeat tempo of the song. Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu also showed off their bubbly charm with some high energy choreography as they all danced together. Most of the choreography is also done with candy-colored athletic wear.
The MV was also a nod to the 80s. Chaeyong was seen at the beginning and at the end of the clip looking at the videos of TWICE on what appears to be on early Mac operating systems. Watch the "Wake Me Up" MV below.
TWICE "Wake Me Up" Track
The song was initially teased in the background of the ABC-Mart and Nike Air Max commercial in Japan. The K-pop idols were seen sporting the world-renowned shoe brand in the new CF while playing around to the beat of their new single.
"Wake Me Up" aims to follow the success of their previous Japanese singles - "One More Time" and "Candy Pop." TWICE's third Japanese track is also a follow up to the K-pop group's fifth EP "What Is Love?" which was released earlier this month.
"Wake Me Up" is set to be pre-released as a digital single on April 25, while the CD edition is scheduled to drop on May 16. The CD version also includes three other tracks, "Pink Lemonade", and the instrumental versions of "Wake Me Up" and "Pink Lemonade."
Meanwhile, TWICE will also embark on a tour next month. The Twice 2nd Tour: Twiceland Zone 2 - Fantasy Park will kick off in Seoul from May 18 to 20 before heading to Japan. They are scheduled to perform for their fans in Saitama on May 26 and 27 and in Osaka on June 2 and 3, 2018. They will also make tour stops in Singapore, Bangkok, Jakarta, and Kuala Lumpur.
