South Korean K-pop boy band, NCT (short for Neo Culture Technology), was formed at the beginning of 2016. Known as K-pop’s most experimental boy band, the group consists of a constantly changing line-up, encompassing members from Korean, Chinese, Thai, American, Japanese, and Canadian nationalities. Over time, several sub-units were created, such as NCT U, NCT 127, NCT Dream, and WayV, and in 2023, NCT DoJaeJung. NCT made its debut in 2018 with the album NCT 2018 Empathy, which managed to reach the second place on the South Korean charts. However, it was in 2020, with its successor NCT 2020 Resonance, that the group achieved a significant breakthrough, reaching Number 1 locally and on the American alternative charts, number 2 in Japan, as well as number 6 on the Billboard chart. Released in 2021, the third album Universe topped the charts once again, this time in South Korea, Japan, as well as the American alternative charts. Their resounding success continued in 2023, with the release of Golden Age, which reached Number 1 in South Korea and number 7 in Japan.
