Girl group Twice will celebrate its eighth anniversary together with a pop-up store and a meet and greet, the band's agency JYP Entertainment said Monday.

Twice is scheduled to meet with fans during two meet and greet events on Oct. 21 at the Olympic Hall in Songpa District, southern Seoul, titled "2023 Twice Fanmeeting 〈Once Again〉." Once, the name of Twice's fan club, will be able to meet with the girl group twice that day — once at 1 p.m. and again at 7 p.m.

The evening performance will be streamed live on the Beyond LIVE online platform.

The pop-up store will be open from Oct. 18 through Oct. 24 in Seongsu-dong of Seongdong District, eastern Seoul. The shop will be named Twice Records and will feature an exhibition zone, photo zone and merchandise sales zone.

Details of the pop-up will be uploaded on the girl group's social media accounts, JYP Entertainment said.

Twice is on its fifth world tour, “Ready To Be,” which kicked off with performances at the KSPO Dome in Songpa District, southern Seoul, on April 15 and 16. With concerts held in Australia, Japan, the United States, Canada, Singapore, Britain, Germany and France, Twice will continue the tour with performances around Asia and the Americas, totaling 44 performances around 25 cities worldwide.
