background
In late September 2017, JYP Entertainment announced that Twice would be making a comeback in October. However, an exact date had not yet been set at this point in time. The group had previously traveled to Canada to shoot a music video for the album's single. At a fan meeting on October 15th, the release date was announced as October 30th. It was also announced that the name of the album would be Twicetagram and that of the single Likey . On the following days, teasers for the album were published in the form of pictures and excerpts of songs from the album.
In addition to some well-known composers who were already involved in earlier productions of Twice, the album also features self-written texts by some members of the group. The track Look at Me was co-composed by former Wonder Girls member Hyerim.
The album was produced by Park Jin-young , founder of JYP Entertainment, as well as by Black Eyed Pilseung and Jeon Gun.
Twicetagram was released for download on October 30, 2017. The physical edition of the album was available from October 31st.
