Twice discusses 3rd LP

The bandmates of Twice talked about their third studio album, “Formula of Love: O+T=<3,” which came out last week, in a Q&A interview released by label JYP Entertainment on Tuesday.

The track “Scientist” sounded refreshing to their ears when they first heard it. It was charming and off, said Jihyo.

Summed up in a word, Jeongyeon said with a laugh, it was “an instant hit.”

Many of the band members participated in writing songs for the album. Jihyo was inspired by her cactus, which was withering, when she wrote “Cactus” -- her first attempt at creating an entire song’s melody on her own. Dahyun, on the other hand, imagined a cool city girl when she came up with the lyrics for “Cruel.”

“It was a bit difficult writing them to go with the melody and the beat,” she admitted, “but when it was completed, I was so proud.”

As for the unit songs, a first for the band, they were curious to see what names fans would come up with.

“I was quite nervous since it was the first time and felt more responsible as it meant a bigger part,” confided Jeongyeon.
