TWICE released a short, Japanese version of their ''Signal'' music video!

The girl group is making their hot debut in Japan with the album '#TWICE', which will include their hit tracks all in Japanese. Prior to the full release of their debut album on June 28, TWICE unveiled a short, Japanese version of ''Signal'' MV.

Check out the Japanese version above!

Oh my. It sounds even more horrifying in Japanese. Now, I listened to the short version for Ooh-ahh and this one works. Signal ? Not so much. I'm still happy to see Tzuyu in the middle for the chorus though. This warms my heart :)(Reminder: just because I love TWICE doesn't mean I have to like every single song, so please respect that ^^ ) .

did they re-filmed the mv?

Whoa... their pronunciation of Japanese is really good! Especially Momo, Sana and Mina excel in that department.

Not sure if you are serious.....

Of course I'm not. I wrote it as a joke, hoping to see if someone might take it seriously.

i usually hate when my favorite artists go to japan, but i'm honestly so excited because they've been getting love calls for so long~ BEST WISHES TWICE :D

I'm impressed by Chae, Jihyo, and Nayeon's pronunciation but as someone who understand Japanese the lyrics are kinda awkward especially Momo and Mina's part in the beginning. This song just doesn't work in Japanese. I wish they debuted with an original song.

The only reason it sounds weird is because we are used to the korean version otherwise it sounds fine. I like both versions cus both sounds equally nice.

It's really only weird in the beginning, the words are pronounced too harshly. It's just a bad choice of words there. They could have easily kept the "signal" part in the beginning in Korean and have the rest in Japanese

k_ind PrincessSeolhyun • Wednesday, June 14, 2017

it sounds weird even to native jap speakers. the lyrics are weird

PrincessSeolhyun futuretree1 • Wednesday, June 14, 2017

That's true. Ofcourse it'd have been better if they debuted with a different song in Japanese because changing the words to fit the original song is not the best idea even though sometimes, for some songs it works. However, it's not so bad where you have to mute the song if you get what I mean? I agree with the Signal part tho idk why they changed it.

futuretree1 PrincessSeolhyun • Wednesday, June 14, 2017

"it's not so bad where you have to mute the song if you get what i mean" no i don't, my standards aren't that low

futuretree1 k_ind • Wednesday, June 14, 2017

Also k_ind, I think that I found out where the issue is. The "sign kanji tte" part is sped up. if you listen closely to it they got rid of any pause between "kanji tte", and the problem with that is that once music sounds too perfect then it just begins to sound wrong. ie if I made an electro song solely on my computer and I made everything perfectly fit into place with the same pause count in between each beat, then it'll sound disturbing because that's not how humans play music. So pretty much the issue is is that they edited it wrong in that parts because that particular line sounds fine the moment it's sung right after that
