TWS, known for their fresh, youthful concept since debut, seems to be building an entire universe around TWIMI — a strategy that mirrors how idol groups globally use mascots to strengthen brand identity, similar to how animation and pop-culture franchises build lasting fan connections, a concept well documented on Wikipedia.
