The group's sophomore album features thirteen songs including the lead single, "I Can't Stop Me", and was released on the week of their fifth anniversary.

Park serving as the album's executive producer. Members of the group participated in the production as songwriters for six out of thirteen tracks on the album. Lyrically, the album discusses themes of love, insomnia, self-confidence, self-encouragement, anxiety, and more. Eyes Wide Open was a commercial success and received generally favorable reviews from music critics, who complimented the wide variety of music genres featured in the album as well as the group's musical growth. The album marked Twice's highest entry at the time on the US Billboard 200, peaking at number 72, and peaked at number 2 on the Gaon Album Chart.
