TWS, the rising K-pop boy group under PLEDIS Entertainment, will take the field as special guests at an upcoming Chiba Lotte Marines home game in Japan.

On May 27th KST, PLEDIS Entertainment announced, “TWS has been invited to appear at the Chiba Lotte Marines’ home game against the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks on June 29th, held at Zozo Marine Stadium in Chiba, Japan.”

Representing Korea as a leading next-generation boy group, TWS will throw the ceremonial first pitch and deliver a special performance on the field prior to the game, sharing their signature “K-youthful energy” with fans.

Through their agency, the group shared, “We’re honored to be part of the Chiba Lotte Marines’ event. We’ll do our best to make a great impression—please look forward to it.”

The appearance comes as TWS gears up for their official debut in Japan this July. The group is actively promoting across various platforms, including performing the opening theme “BLOOM (feat. Ayumu Imazu)” for the upcoming anime 'A Bouquet for an Ugly Girl', airing in July. The track will be included in their first Japanese single 'Nice to see you again (はじめまして)', set for release on July 2nd.

To showcase their performance skills, TWS will also embark on their first Japanese tour, '2025 TWS TOUR ‘24/7:WITH:US’ IN JAPAN', kicking off July 11th and spanning 13 shows across six cities. They’re also confirmed to perform at The MusiQuest 2025 on July 6th and the massive 'ROCK IN JAPAN FESTIVAL 2025' on September 15th.

Their debut Japanese single includes three tracks: the title song "Nice to see you again, "plot twist -Japanese ver.- (the Japanese version of First Meeting Doesn’t Go as Planned)", and "BLOOM (feat. Ayumu Imazu)". The single captures the group’s refreshing charm and promises to deliver sparkling summer memories through music.
