[TV Daily, Kim Jin-seok] Group TWS is receiving significant acclaim from international media with their mini album 'NO TRAGEDY.' In a review published on the 27th by Forbes, the American economic magazine praises them for showcasing an evolved profile, stating that the album maintains a refreshing and energetic sound while moving towards love in an expanded manner. The British music magazine CLASH highlights how TWS is crafting their identity not by being fixed in one image but by building upon experiences, pointing out that their narratives have become clearer. Musical growth is another focal point, as the American lifestyle media Sweety High reported on the various styles explored in 'NO TRAGEDY,' which includes house and R&B, expanding their musical spectrum. Bandwagon Asia coined TWS as trendsetters, noting the sophisticated sound and catchy refrain of their title track 'You, You.' Philippine broadcaster ABS-CBN suggested that listeners can witness the growth of TWS beyond the success of their 'Antall Challenge' in this album. On the first day of release, 'NO TRAGEDY' sold 830,138 copies, clinching the top spot on the Hanteo Chart, surpassing previous records and marking a career high. TWS will kick off their music broadcast activities starting with Mnet's 'M Countdown' on the 30th.

The recently released 'NO TRAGEDY' serves as proof that TWS continues to evolve within the boyhood pop genre. This album offers fans a fresh experience through a mix of their established sound and innovative musical attempts. Their ability to create new trends rather than merely following existing ones adds depth to their portrayal of contemporary youth.

Musical maturity has also enhanced their communication with fans. TWS expresses the joys and struggles of youth through their music, strengthening emotional bonds with their audience. They transcend the typical idol image, delivering messages that resonate with young people worldwide, underscoring their prominent position in the music industry.

Furthermore, the explosive album sales, coupled with their upcoming music broadcast appearances, are expected to generate even greater interest. Through this opportunity, TWS is likely to solidify their standing and emerge as successful artists in the industry.
