TWICE Was Spotted At The Airport Headed To Japan For Annual Song Festival Performance

They are the only foreign girl group who have been invited three years in a row.

TWICE was spotted at the airport as they head to Japan to ring in the New Year performing on NHK‘s Kouhaku Uta Gassen.

Kouhaku Uta Gassen, also known as Red and White or the Red and White Song Festival, is an year-end annual event organized by the NHK. It is a prestigious program that showcases both the most popular current musicians, as well as top old school performers, such as traditional enka singers. This will also be the first year beloved Japanese comedian Beat Takeshi attends as a performer rather than as an MC!
