I wasn't planning on writing about #TWICELIGHTSinNEWARK but I left the venue feeling inspired. Throughout the night, @JYPETWICE proved that they can't be defined by a single image. They have so much more to offer. #Twice https://t.co/2fUG92dMyZ

Concert review highlights:
*On Sunday night, the members of Asia's most popular girl group proved that they're not defined by a single image.
*... the stage a multitude of rainbow colors and their faces adorned with glitter — I realized two things: One, Dahyun is the only person who can get away with earnestly dabbing in the year of our Lord 2019; and two, Twice is kind of brilliant.
*Twice's true power was displayed during the ballad stage, where the night took an emotional turn during "After Moon," which fans have unofficially deemed Mina's song. Ballad stages are tricky; they can sometimes kill the momentum of a good show. But Twice, dressed in white, matched the kinetic energy of their opening set with pure emotion, proving themselves as dynamic and empathetic performers.
*They concluded with their most recent single, "Fancy," a song that saw the group experimenting with more mature sounds. The opening synth adds a layer of mystique that has previously evaded Twice's singles, and the newly added dance break — just for tour — is a striking accumulation of the entire Twicelights experience: Twice are so much more than their concepts.
*They are multifaceted artists who are more complex than their bops often allow. The entire night was a display of their duality and empathy.
*I saw a glimpse of Twice as they really are, not as Korea's chart-topping girl group but rather as a group of young women bursting with charm and charisma and inside jokes — who undeniably find strength and solidarity in one another.
