Tzuyu "Let's be together for a long, long time" — thoughts after finishing the world tour

Twice member Tzuyu has completed her year-long world tour schedule. Amid ongoing rumors regarding contract renewals and transfers, which have recently surfaced primarily in Chinese-language media, Tzuyu is drawing attention by leaving a direct message for her fans.

On the 17th, Tzuyu posted her thoughts on completing the encore performances of the world tour 'THIS IS FOR' on her social media account. Along with photos taken backstage in her performance outfits, Tzuyu shared a post reflecting on the one-year journey, stating, "Now that the tour we've been on for a year has ended, so many emotions are crossing my mind," and adding, "Among them, I think the greatest feeling left is a sense of accomplishment."Promises to Fandom ONCE and a Sense of Achievement

Tzuyu expressed the sense of accomplishment gained through this tour as gratitude toward the fandom 'ONCE'. Tzuyu said, "The fact that ONCE is always with me wherever I am has been a great strength, and I feel like I've gained even more courage to move forward as an artist."

She also added a message emphasizing a continuous relationship with fans. Tzuyu wrote, "While there might be a great sense of regret that the tour has ended, please promise to stay by our side for a long, long time. Let's be together for a long, long time." Tzuyu wrote this message in both Korean and Taiwanese. In the text written in Taiwanese, Tzuyu directly expressed her sense of achievement, writing, "結束了一年的巡迴演唱會後，心裡真的百感交集，而對我來說最深刻的感受應該就是滿滿的成就感".Background of Transfer Rumors Raised by Chinese-language Media

The reason Tzuyu's remarks are gaining attention is the transfer rumors recently raised by local media in Taiwan and China. Some local reports cited the fact that Tzuyu's parents established a corporation called 'Weihai Entertainment' in Taiwan last year as a basis. Local media suggested that this corporation would serve as a foundation to support Tzuyu's future activities in the Chinese-speaking world, mentioning the possibility that Tzuyu might take independent steps or move to a new agency after her exclusive contract with JYP Entertainment expires.

Local media also reported that Tzuyu is preparing for independent activities under the name 'Zhou Tzuyu'. However, while it is known that the corporation was established by Tzuyu's parents, it has not been confirmed that Tzuyu herself is operating it or has made moves regarding contracts. Tzuyu herself has not released any separate official position regarding the transfer rumors.

Twice proved its global influence through this world tour that began last July.
