SM Entertainment

In an exciting continuation of their musical journey, NCT, the dynamic boy band under the creative banner of SM Entertainment, is poised to usher in a "Golden Age" with their upcoming fourth studio album, slated for release on August 28th.

The forthcoming album marks a significant milestone as all 20 members from NCT's various subgroups, including NCT 127, NCT Dream, and WayV, will unite their talents for this eagerly awaited project. A testament to NCT's versatility and collaborative spirit, the album promises a harmonious blend of voices and styles, reinforcing the band's reputation for pushing boundaries within the K-pop realm.

NCT's evolution is exemplified by their adaptability, evident in their ability to navigate changes within their lineup. Originally comprising 23 members, the group recently underwent a slight reshuffle, with Lucas departing in May to pursue a solo career after a two-year hiatus. Meanwhile, Sungchan and Shotaro embarked on a new journey, joining SM's forthcoming boy band venture.

"Golden Age" is set to unveil a vibrant array of colorful concepts, a characteristic approach that is sure to resonate with fans across the globe. The album's anticipated uniqueness lies in its distinctive spin on well-established themes, promising to captivate listeners with an imaginative twist.

Building on their impressive track record, including the triumphant success of their second studio album "Resonance Pt. 1," which secured a spot on the prestigious Billboard 200 chart at No. 6 in 2020, NCT is poised to set new benchmarks. The collective power of "Resonance Pt. 1" and "Resonance Pt. 2" propelled the group to sell over 2.68 million copies combined, a testament to their unwavering global appeal.

"Golden Age" boasts not one, but two title tracks, offering a dual musical experience for fans to savor. The album introduces the energetic full unit song "Golden Age," alongside the captivating "Baggy Jeans," featuring the talents of NCT members Taeyong, Ten, Doyoung, Jaehyun, and Mark. This fusion of voices and styles promises to deliver a rich listening experience that captures NCT's signature allure.

As NCT continues to captivate hearts worldwide through their subgroups and boundary-pushing music, SM Entertainment has unveiled plans to expand the band's horizons even further. The agency is currently in the process of evaluating 10 promising trainees to form a new NCT subgroup, slated to consist of six members. This strategic expansion is set to be the final chapter in NCT's growth story.

Anticipation mounts as NCT prepares to take center stage with their first offline full-group concert, titled "NCT Nation: To The World," scheduled to enchant fans at the Incheon Munhak Stadium on August 26th. The concert will subsequently grace Osaka and Tokyo, Japan, on September 9-10 and 16-17, respectively.

Enthusiastic fans can secure their copies of "Golden Age" as album preorders commence on Wednesday, both online and offline. As NCT embarks on this thrilling new chapter, their journey continues to captivate audiences, showcasing their boundless creativity and unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of musical expression.
