The track list for Twicecoaster: Lane 2 was revealed on February 12. It contains thirteen tracks: the seven songs from the original release, additional two new songs, a remix version and instrumental of "TT", as well as the instrumental tracks of "Like Ooh-Ahh" from The Story Begins and "Cheer Up" from Page Two. The group concept images and individual teasers of Twice were released in the next four days.[5][6][7][8]

Two music video teasers for "Knock Knock" were released on February 17 and 18 at midnight. The first teaser started with the sound of knock which was heard on the ending of the music video for "TT", while the second teaser showed the members dressed in a variety of outfits that flash by in the stop-motion video.[9][10]
