In a significant triumph for K-pop's international ascent, Jihyo, a prominent member of the renowned group Twice, has made an extraordinary entrance onto the Billboard 200 chart with her inaugural solo EP "Zone," firmly planting herself at an impressive No. 14. This achievement marks the second-highest ranking achieved by a female solo K-pop artist, with only her fellow bandmate Nayeon outshining the feat by securing the No. 7 position just last year.
Bolstering their global presence even further, Twice is set to elevate the tempo of their ongoing international tour by gracing four additional stadiums across the world. As part of this expansive tour, which has captivated audiences on a grand scale, the group is slated to light up stages in 42 concerts spanning 25 cities, a testament to their unwavering global popularity. This development comes in the wake of the announcement by JYP Entertainment, the group's label, on a significant expansion of the tour's scope.
The forthcoming destinations and dates revealed by the management agency are as follows: Melbourne, Australia, in the upcoming month of November; Jakarta, Indonesia, in the ensuing month of December; and the vibrant cities of Mexico City and Sao Paulo, Brazil, in the beckoning month of February next year. These newly added stops further underscore the group's international reach and fanbase.
Twice, whose journey on this exhilarating tour began in Seoul this past April, has already amassed a staggering crowd of approximately 700,000 attendees, reaffirming their stratospheric popularity. As they gear up to resume the tour this week in Singapore, it is abundantly clear that the enthusiasm for their performances knows no bounds.
In an era defined by the globalization of music and cultural exchange, Twice and Jihyo's successes on the Billboard 200 and their spirited international tour exemplify the power of music to transcend borders and unite fans across continents. As they continue to enthrall audiences and break new ground, their legacy as trailblazers in the global music landscape remains indelibly etched.
