The nine-member girl group has been keeping their momentum up this year by selling out the U.S. leg of their world tour, performing a two-night encore concert in their first stadium show, creating their own personal Instagram accounts and starting their first-ever solo projects.

They have also now performed “The Feels” twice for a late-night U.S. television show, having a pre-recorded performance for “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” in October last year.
