TWS have released their second single album, TO US, alongside a music video for lead single ‘Call My Name’.
Out on 2 November, the three-track release draws on honest conversations with the group’s six members, SHINYU, DOHOON, YOUNGJAE, HANJIN, JIHOON, and KYUNGMIN. It captures the ambition and excitement of youth alongside the hesitation and uncertainty that come with finding your way.
At the centre of the album is ‘Call My Name’, an uplifting anthem built on a buoyant drum and bass groove. Jazz pianist Yun Seokcheol contributes fluid piano lines that weave through the driving rhythms, while YOUNGJAE, SHINYU, and DOHOON helped write the lyrics, channelling their dedication to the stage and their fans, 42.
The accompanying music video moves between reality and surrealism to explore the emotions behind youth’s brightest moments. SHINYU cuts through dense smoke with a flare, DOHOON collapses from exhaustion, and YOUNGJAE sits on a nail-studded chair. Elsewhere, HANJIN hangs midair from a skyscraper, JIHOON balances atop a tall pillar, and KYUNGMIN basks in sunlight with a scorched shadow behind him.
Throughout the video, the members confront questions including “What is your dream worth chasing?” and “What makes you alive?”, pushing past hesitation and rallying behind one another. At its climax, the six members dash into downtown Seoul to perform synchronised choreography across open crosswalks, accompanied by ascending piano melodies.
Alongside the lead single, TO US features ‘WE UP’, which layers intense synth-bass over a Miami Bass rhythm to express the group’s ambition. Closing track ‘heavy’ takes a warmer synth-pop approach, pairing building synths and steady drum beats with a message of comfort for anyone feeling weighed down by the world.
The release follows TWS’ first million-selling album, NO TRAGEDY, their first Asia tour, 2026 TWS TOUR ‘24/7:FOR:YOU’, and a series of major festival appearances. With TO US, the group look beyond the excitement of beginnings to share more personal reflections on growing up.
