Happy TWICE NEWS 6th anniversary !
Happy TWICE NEWS 6th anniversary !
Thanks to all of you ONCE readers, we hope it did help to keep you updated on TWICE during your busy weeks and to not miss a single thing during these crazy weeks. Since the first edition in June 20th 2019, this article was posted as a single message in Twice's Unofficial Discord server, and it then evolved with ever-growing needs for accessibility and strong formatting. We had some hiccups in the past, but we are pretty pleased with our current state today! Thanks to all the team members that helped to create this weekly paper with everything that goes on for TWICE's career.Through the years we did create some extra content and I will list a few below as a reference to the menu on the top of the website:Resources for NEW ONCEResources of CompilationsMusic Shows content by erasRecaps of the last 4 yearsAnd more recently, the start of a pretty big project with a timeline that would summarize TWICE's career with a quick glance. Our formatting matches that of a wiki but with less to read, geared to a more graphic layout and links to all significant moments:TWICELINEBut also some team related contents:Team members and the History of Twice NewsThe Team Kpop AwardsAnd more!We hope that you will enjoy the rest of this journey with us!Also thanks to all the ONCE sharing news, reposting and translating on their SNS accounts. We use their sources to do a compilation of news but wrapped up by articles we write ourselves. We could not do it without those sources, due to time constraints and language barriers.It would be great if you can help to spread the news around you, as the views are decreasing and it's a bit depressing. I want to remind that we don't have any ads running and none of us get paid for what we produce. Our fuel is to spread the news to ONCE and keep you all up to date.You can help us with that with retweets from our SNS (just below), upvote on Reddit and spread the word with your friends.Thanks and have a good read!
