On Thursday, "TT," the title of one of TWICE's hit songs, was displayed in bright pink lighting on the Japanese tourist destination, JYP Entertainment said. It was put on display for five hours from 7 p.m.

Tokyo Tower was scheduled to carry out the lighting on Friday evening as well.

"The title "TT" coincides with the initials of the Tokyo Tower.

We were able to reach an agreement so as to create a joint 'boom up,'" the company explained.

"We're grateful for receiving such meaningful and huge gift. We will work hard to become a shining TWICE just like the brimming Tokyo Tower," members said.
