I'm not sure if this is true, so I put it under rumor.

Looks like it's legit. Congrats on being invited, Twice!

FYI, Twice was invited to perform by KBS.

The ABU TV Song Festival will be a celebration of popular music featuring high-profile musical talents, not a competition among amateur musical talents. Participating member organizations will be invited to provide a solo artist or musical group who enjoy mass appeal in their home country to be featured in the song festival.
