[OSENWORLD] TWICE electrified New York with a performance that fused confidence, class, and K-pop power.
On October 15 (local time), members Jihyo, Nayeon, Tzuyu, and Momo took the stage at the 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, closing the event with a show-stopping finale.
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, which began in the U.S. in the 1990s, is one of the world’s most iconic fashion spectacles, blending runway glamour with live music. After making its grand comeback last year with BLACKPINK’s Lisa as the first K-pop solo artist to open the show, this year’s edition saw TWICE making history as the first K-pop group ever to perform on the legendary runway.
Before the show began, TWICE joined the host backstage for a brief interview. “I’m here with four members of TWICE — one of the biggest K-pop girl groups in history,” the host introduced. “They recently released a new album and also took part in the Netflix K-Pop Demon Hunters soundtrack with the song ‘TAKEDOWN.’”
When asked how she felt about performing at the legendary fashion event, Tzuyu said, “It was truly amazing. Victoria’s Secret is such a famous and beloved brand — we felt so honored and happy to be part of it.”
Jihyo added, “It’s our first time performing as just four members instead of nine, so we hope the audience appreciates this special stage.”
This year’s show also featured performances by Missy Elliott, Madison Beer, and Karol G, spotlighting female artists from around the world.
Onstage, TWICE performed their hits “Strategy” and “This Is For,” delivering a sporty yet sensual concept with powerful live vocals. The Angels — dressed in modern athletic-inspired looks rather than the brand’s traditionally revealing outfits — flawlessly mirrored the group’s confident energy.
Meanwhile, TWICE recently released their special album TEN: The Story Goes On, featuring the title track “ME+YOU.” Throughout 2025, the group has continued to dominate the global stage with their fourth full-length album THIS IS FOR, Japanese album ENEMY, and a record-breaking world tour. Their K-Pop Demon Hunters OST “TAKEDOWN” and mini album track “Strategy” both enjoyed impressive runs on the Billboard Hot 100, charting for 14 and 12 consecutive weeks, respectively.
TWICE are set to hold their official 10th-anniversary fan meeting 10VE UNIVERSE on October 18 at Korea University’s Hwajeong Tiger Dome arena in Seoul.
