South Korean band Tomorrow X Together, also known as TXT, burst to the top of Billboard 200 charts after their comeback debut of “Minisode 3: Tomorrow” hit the No. 3 spot, selling over 107,000 albums this month.
In celebration for the release of “Minisode 3: Tomorrow,” six KPop Nara stores throughout the United States (New York, New Jersey, Chicago, Woodfield, Michigan, and Seattle) hosted a “TXT Weekend” for fans from April 5th to April 7th.
The TXT Fan base, affectionately known as Moa, were able to purchase various version of the new album and receive a free cupsleeve as well as invited to participate in a trading card event and in-store fan project where attendees shared what TXT and being a Moa means to them. Many of them stated how much they enjoy the group’s positive influence as well as the stability band has provided fans when times get tough. Moa’s shared that TXT’s free expression of youth and happiness surrounds them with much needed love and protection.
High schoolers Natalie Y. and Cindy C. excitedly clutched onto their “Minisode 3: Tomorrow,” telling the Spring Creek Sun that they were also gearing up for TXT’s June 1st concert at Madison Square Garden, which will be their first concert to ever attend.
“I like their visuals, they are so good,” Natalie Y. said. “When I look at them it’s like wow, they are glorious. I also absolutely love their vocals. The song “Miracle” is my favorite in this album.”
TXT members: Yeonjun, Choi Soo-bin, Beomgyu, Huening Kai, and Taehyun first debuted in March of 2019 under Big Hit Music (formerly known as Big Hit Entertainment), and five years late the group have hit milestone after milestone as they become the first K-Pop group to earn their 10th time on Billboard’s 200 chart.
“They are really handsome and funny. I watch their shows and they are just so talented; they can dance and sing really well. They are just a really good group. I love their songs and their concepts,” Cindy C. said.
