A VR concert that lets you see the group TWS up close opens today (4th).
According to PLEDIS Entertainment Co. on the 4th, TWS (Shin Yu, Dohun, Youngjae, Hanjin, Jihoon, Kyungmin)'s first VR concert 'TWS VR CONCERT: RUSH ROAD (hereafter Rush Road)' will be exclusively screened at Megabox COEX in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, through May 5. On the same day it will debut at a major theater in Bangkok, followed by openings on the 6th in Hong Kong and on the 13th in Kaohsiung and Taipei. It will later be released in seven global cities including Singapore and Mexico City.
When tickets opened last month, the shows for the opening day sold out instantly, and most tickets for the first week were quickly gone. Fueled by strong advance sales, it ranked No. 2 on the overall Megabox movie chart despite being a single-theater release.
As its title suggests, 'Rush Road' is a VR performance that captures the endlessly racing journey of youth. TWS's signature songs, including 'OVERDRIVE', 'The first meeting doesn't go as planned', and 'Oh Mymy: 7s', are performed in a variety of virtual spaces such as a rock festival, a rooftop at sunset, and a mysterious aurora. Audiences can vividly enjoy TWS's fresh, high-energy performances as if they were watching them right in front of their eyes amid productions that traverse time and space.
In a greeting video for 'Rush Road', TWS said, "We wanted to properly show fans 42, who are new to VR, so we worked hard thinking about how we could get closer," and added, "We prepared this concert so that we and 42 feel like we're in the same space, so please shout and enjoy it energetically," raising expectations.
TWS will hold '2026 TWS 2ND FANMEETING '42:CLUB' IN SEOUL' at Ticketlink Live Arena (formerly the handball gym) in Olympic Park, Songpa-gu, Seoul, from the 27th to the 29th. This fan meeting will also be held three times on April 8-9 at Pia Arena MM in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, offering local fans an unforgettable time.
