Rookie boy band TWS will release its first single, “Last Bell,” on Nov. 25, its agency, Pledis Entertainment, said Monday.

The single comes five months after the release of its second EP, "Summer Beat!" in June.


“‘Last Bell’ refers to the final bell that rings at the end of the school year and symbolizes the sound that resonates in one's heart at the moment of experiencing exciting emotions,” the agency said in a press release.

Preorders for both the regular and Weverse versions of "Last Bell" began on Monday.

TWS is a boy band produced by Pledis Entertainment, nine years after Seventeen made its debut in 2015. It has six members: Youngjae, Jihoon, Dohoon, Kyungmin, Shinyu and Hanjin.

The boy band debuted with the EP "Sparkling Blue" on Jan. 22 of this year and reached No. 1 on the Melon Hot 100 with the EP’s lead track, "Plot Twist."

The group achieved its first win on a major music chart program with "If I'm S, Can You Be My N?" in June.
