“I Want You Back” was the first hit song by the group and launched the career of music legend and the King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson.
“I Want You Back” topped the charts in the United States when it came out in 1969, peaking at the number 1 position.
Korean fans are also very familiar with the song as it became quite popular with fans after a short clip was featured in the movie Guardians of the Galaxy.
Singers in Korea typically release OSTs for television dramas, but TWICE is taking a different route with a Japanese movie OST – and they’re getting a lot of attention for it!

Japan is the third-largest film market in the world (after the United States and China), so the OST will be heard by a huge amount of people!
With TWICE’s already-impressive popularity in Japan, their contribution to the OST of Sensei Kushu will only see the group get even bigger!
