Sana and Tzuyu opened up about TWICE's popularity on 'Happy Together 3'.

The two members guested on the May 11 broadcast. During the talk, MC Jun Hyun Moo asked the girls if they feel their popularity nowadays. Sana answered, "We recently went overseas for a concert. I felt that we're being loved after seeing so many people come out to see us and when they sang along."

Another guest on the show, 2PM's Junho, commented, "I can feel it." He explained, "My cousin texted me on my birthday and asked if I can get him tickets to TWICE's concert. So yeah, I'm feeling it on their behalf."

Tzuyu also said, "I heard through our manager that a lot of tickets were sold."

Jun Hyun Moo then asked if they feel pressured to win #1 on music charts. Sana gave an honest response, stating, "I think there's always pressure because we know our fans and the public are looking forward to our comeback. (I get worried thinking) they gave us so much love but what if they're disappointed with our new song?"

Well turns out Sana was right to be worried.

Just be prettier than the last comeback. I will love it no matter what. Twice is already the giants in Kpop. They will sweep everything away.

Its natural to worry about things like that just like how RV wasn't sure about Rookie and OOTN before

Lets just hope theyre new song is good! Im not gonna lie i wasnt all crazy about knock knock, it was still a jam but not as much as i loved their other comebacks!

Why worry? Twices past songs havent been anything groundbreaking musically, you will be fine dont worry. Onces will love anything, if it were another fandom they might give mixed reviews over the comeback but onces arnt really picky no matter the content. Twice will be okay, if not solid.

Vinegar?

What is your definition of groundbreaking? Because I believe that, like it or not, they have been very much a groundbreaking force in Kpop in many ways.

MagicWonder makan • Friday, May 12, 2017

shes obviously not referring to twice themselves but they're songs, super catchy but nothing that doesn't differentiate from other cute beats. Its their catchy-ness that captures people not the quality of it, it could be any cute girl group singing it but the girls themselves and their label sell the song.

FreeSomebody makan • Friday, May 12, 2017

Groundbreaking music? one unique, fresh, and captures people through rhythm and as a plus catchy. Yes they break charts, no ones denying that but just because you are popular and your song is up top doesn't mean its anything of tubular quality. Happens in america as well, im not about to attack on their vocals, but to me none of their songs have stood out to me as anything worth of vocal prowess. They're extremely fun and catchy tunes that make you wanna dance, and that sells, i get it. Its smart, its efficient and it makes you popular. I suppose i should of worded it differently. But i dont listen to it and feel moved, inspired or feel a vocal powerhouse vibrating in my ears when i hear their songs(like for me i do when i hear luna). They just make me wanna dance, and maybe it feels that way to you! IDK thats you and this is me and thats how i feel. Twice will be okay this comeback thats for sure, theyre smart.

Groundbreaking in terms of real music not popularity

Anyeongggg • Thursday, May 11, 2017

dont worry baby, we as a Onces always support you all. Ignore the jealousy of haters. Twice fighting. PAK princess.

popularity is not indication of quality

pablo27 GOT7_Never_Ever • Friday, May 12, 2017

and quality is subjective...

gigi9 pablo27 • Friday, May 12, 2017

It's not really, its very simple everyone can tell real inspiring good music, lyrics u can relate to when ur sad happy or in love from catchy tune and cute lyrics, it's actually very rare in kpop but 2ne1 were the only girl group with very heartfelt music, lonely, missing you, If I were you.. This is the kind of quality ppl mean

pablo27 gigi9 • Saturday, May 13, 2017

Well, that's not the quality I mean, which makes it subjective.

kimmiefonze • Thursday, May 11, 2017

That's why its important for rookies to check on their seniors just to get a glimpse of how they may be treated after their hype has gone down, if they play their cards right.

I can understand where she's coming from It's one thing to have the stress of being an up and coming group, and just trying to get your foot in the door with a hit song that will make a name for you and your fellow members. But I almost think the pressure can be worse for newer groups who rise with such high success like Twice. It's almost as if you reach the top, and then there's infinite pressure to stay there, to comeback better, stronger and prettier each time. While they haven't necessarily hit the status of other classic and beloved groups like Girls Generation, they are passing milestones left and right with their growing popularity. On top of that, it's almost like there's an added pressure of outshining their seniors by achieving even greater accomplishments. This as well as the fact that the scrutiny on K-pop idols is incredibly intense, so they have to quite literally be picture perfect all the time- I can't even imagine what that kind of pressure must feel like, especially at such a young age. I wish them well and hope JYP takes good care of these girls.

pablo27 trogdorthe8th • Friday, May 12, 2017

You can have the haters to thank for that... Twice as a group just wants to live their dreams... JYPE realizes the jewel in their hands... Haters just picked SNSD to go up against Twice because there's no one left... other ggs do well but Twice just does better... and haters just can't take it...

trogdorthe8th pablo27 • Friday, May 12, 2017

I don't worry about them too much, and honestly it's not just haters that put this pressure on these groups. It really is a stigma, boy groups deal with this as well, where you're always expected to do better, reach higher, which is exhausting physically, mentally and in some ways emotionally. There are times where I truly feel for groups like EXO. Like, don't get me wrong, I enjoy the group, and was saddened at the members they lost, but it didn't stop me from enjoying their music. Now I'm not always a fan of every comeback they've had, but they're still a solid and talented group of young men. But they too, have dealt with and continue to deal with the pressures of really being at the top of the pyramid- pressure not only from antis to do poorly, but in a way pressure from the fans to come back bigger and better every time. I don't see how they deal with it, that takes some damn deep inner strength.

pablo27 trogdorthe8th • Friday, May 12, 2017

Yeah, these people fight tooth and nail to get to the top only to find out how much more of a struggle it is to stay there...

Onion_Rings • Thursday, May 11, 2017

One thing I find funny about Twice's articles is when I see the number of comments. It has 50 comments and I get excited! "Wow! People are excited about their comeback!"..... it has like 3 comments: 2 hating on Twice, 1 praising Twice. The other 47 comments are Twice fans and non-Twice fans arguing with each other like 5 year olds.

pablo27 Onion_Rings • Friday, May 12, 2017

But did you ever wonder why articles about other ggs seems to be dead?
