TWS drops Japanese single 2 'SODA SODA' on July 4, one year after Japan debut

TWS releases their second Japanese single, SODA SODA, on July 4. The timing lands exactly two days after the group's one-year Japanese debut anniversary.

Three tracks make up the single: SODA SODA, the summer cut Palm Tree, and a Japanese-language version of 내가 S면 넌 나의 N이 되어줘, which was the title track from their second mini album. Gyeongmin (경민), Youngjae (영재), and Jihun (지훈) co-wrote SODA SODA. The song captures that feeling of moving forward while holding onto the shining moments of youth. Part of it already circulated as a CM song for a local Japanese shoe store. Palm Tree works as the group's summer anthem, painting free and leisurely moments in a place lined with palm trees.

July 2 marked the one-year milestone. "We are truly happy to celebrate the one-year anniversary of our Japanese debut," the members said. "We hope this summer will be remembered as more special and refreshing with 'SODA SODA'."

The release comes wrapped in a packed schedule. TWS performed OVERDRIVE — the title track from their fourth mini album — on Fuji TV's 2026 FNS 가요제 여름 on July 1. They're set for Nihon TV's THE MUSIC DAY 2026 on July 4 and TBS's 음악의 날 2026 on July 18. Then the festival circuit kicks in: 메자마시 WANGAN 페스티벌 on August 7, SUMMER SONIC 2026 on August 14 and 16.

A Japan tour follows. 2026 TWS TOUR '24/7:FOR:YOU' IN JAPAN stops in Fukuoka (August 28–30), Hyogo (September 4–6), and Kanagawa (September 12–13). Six cities in one summer.
