Release and promotion


On September 15, 2017, Twice announced the release of their first Japanese single titled "One More Time", along with several teaser images for the new track. The group had previously teased the single in August through a promotional video titled #Twice Spot Movie with the caption "One More Time…?" at the end of the video. The song was first revealed on Tokyo FM's School of Lock! on October 5.
On October 17, Twice performed "One More Time" for the first time on the television morning program Sukkiri on Nippon TV. Two days later, the group appeared as a guest on School of Lock!, their debut on-air radio broadcast in Japan. On October 22, they performed "One More Time", "Like Ooh-Ahh (Japanese ver.)" and "TT (Japanese ver.)" on Fuji TV's Mezamashi TV Presents T-Spook – Tokyo Halloween Party, one of the largest Halloween events in the country.
The CD single was released in four different versions: Standard Edition, Fanclub Edition (Halloween Version), First Press Limited Edition A (CD and DVD that contains the song's music video and its movie making) and First Press Limited Edition B (CD and DVD that contains music video dance version and jacket shooting making movie). On February 7, 2018, "One More Time" and "Luv Me" were digitally released on various South Korean music sites, along with the release of "Candy Pop".




Composition



"One More Time" was composed by Na.Zu.Na, Yu-ki Kokubo and Yhanael, with lyrics written by Natsumi Watanabe and Yhanael. Caitlin Kelley, writing for Billboard, said the song "enlists some '90s electronica vibes that deviate from the EDM that's been taking over K-pop lately, with a combination of the blaring synths and loud bass that sounds like Sleigh Bells-meets-Eurodance".




Music video


The music video teasers were released on September 25 and 29, 2017. Ahead of the single's official release, the full music video was uploaded online on October 6. It features Twice dressed in bright colors as the members are seen performing a variety of sports activities: Nayeon and Jihyo have a tennis match scene reminiscent of the anime The Prince of Tennis. Chaeyoung and Dahyun have a boxing face off refereed by Jeongyeon with Sana as the ring girl. Momo, Mina and Tzuyu are rhythmic gymnasts performing with hoop, ball and ribbon, respectively.




Commercial performance


Prior to dropping the CD single, "One More Time" entered the Billboard Japan Hot 100 at number 57 and spent four weeks on the chart until it reached the top spot, one week after its official release. The song also debuted at number 15 on Billboard charts' World Digital Song Sales, then rose into the Top 10 at number 8 the following week.
The CD single debuted atop the daily ranking of Oricon Singles Chart with 94,957 units sold, setting a new first-day sales record for South Korean girl groups. The record was previously held by Girls' Generation's debut Japanese album, Girls' Generation (2011), which sold 74,000 copies on its release day. On its second day, "One More Time" became the fastest-selling K-pop girl group release in Japan based on first week figures.
