The album design of the group TWS is becoming a hot topic.


TWS (Shinwoo, Dohun, Youngjae, Hanjin, Jihoon, Kyungmin) announced the release of their third mini album 'TRY WITH US' on April 21st at 6 PM. Pre-orders for the album began on the 24th, and the album package design (standard version) in the shape of a 35mm photographic film roll is unique. It's receiving positive reviews for its trendy concept that resonates with the tastes of Generation Z. Notably, instead of the commonly used 12cm diameter CD, it's produced with an 8cm mini CD. This mini CD format was used primarily in the United States, United Kingdom, and Japan in the early 1990s and is rarely seen these days. It stimulates nostalgia among older generations while appealing to Generation Z in a hip way, further increasing its collectibility.


In addition, the standard version includes various components such as instant photos that look like they were just developed from an instant camera, a photo stand reminiscent of a camera lens, a photo booklet, a sticker pack, a mini photo booklet, a mini poster, and a photo card.


Their agency, Pledis Entertainment, stated, "We planned the album design and components based on the idea of capturing special moments in life," and added, "Please look forward to the music that records the youth of TWS, the 'hottest twenty-year-olds.'" K-pop fans are showing a lot of interest. Fans are reacting with comments like, "It looks like an interior decoration item, so it's very versatile," "It's cute and pretty, I want it," and "It's been a long time since I've seen a mini CD." The previously released promotion scheduler was also inspired by film box blueprints, and fans are enjoying the content by printing this image and making their own film boxes.


TWS' third mini album 'TRY WITH US' contains the meaning of "Let's do things we've never done before together." It captures the hot energy of twenty-year-olds bravely jumping into new experiences.


Meanwhile, TWS will release a trailer for 'TRY WITH US' on the HYBE LABELS YouTube channel at 10 PM today (27th), providing hints about the new album.
