[Today’s K-pop] NCT Dream confirms 3rd world tour
Published : Feb. 20, 2024 - 17:35
Link copied
NCT Dream announced plans for its third international tour “The Dream Show 3” Tuesday.
The NCT subunit will kick off the tour in Seoul with a three-day concert starting May 2. In Japan, it will perform at three major domes – in Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya – for the first time and then visit Jakarta, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Singapore and Manila until August. The Asian leg of the tour will be followed by concerts in South and North America as well as Europe through November.
Its previous tour brought the seven members to 26 cities across the world for 41 shows in total.
In March, the group is set to release what is likely to be its fifth EP. The album will come about eight months after its third studio album “ISTJ” that sold over 3.65 million copies in the first week.
Treasure to tour Asia from May
Treasure surprised fans with news that it will visit fans in Asia from May.
Label YG Entertainment uploaded a poster for “2024 Treasure Relay Tour [Reboot]” Tuesday, announcing that the band will go live in Manila, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Jakarta from May to June. It will be about a year since the group toured the region.
The 10 members flew to Japan on Monday for their ongoing second tour in the country. They will be in Hiroshima this week before heading over to Kanagawa in the first week of March. On Wednesday, Treasure will drop its third EP in Japan, “Reboot – JP Special Selection-.”
Separately, the group will appear in reality show “Shining Solo” that starts airing on March 3.
Le Sserafim logs 10m views with ‘Easy’ music video
Le Sserafim garnered 10 million views on YouTube in about 13 hours with the music video for the new single “Easy,” the shortest time for the group, according to agency Source Music on Tuesday.
The video debuted atop the platform’s worldwide trending chart.
“Easy” is the title track from Le Sserafim's third EP that was released on Monday. The five-track album sold over 780,000 copies on the day of release, raising expectations for it to become the group’s third million-selling album, following the second EP “Antifragile” and first LP “Unforgiven.”
The new album topped the iTunes Top Albums chart in 18 regions and the main track was No. 1 on its top songs chart in five.
Meanwhile, the group is set to debut at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
H1-Key to release digital single
Girl group H1-Key will drop the digital single “Deeper” on Feb. 27, said agency GLG Entertainment on Tuesday.
It is the second installment of the four-member act’s project “H1-Key” that began last month with “Thinkin’ About You,” the first English-language single from the group.
The singles series aims to move and console listeners with good music while broadening the group's music spectrum.
In the meantime, the quartet reentered major music charts at home, including Melon’s Top 100, with “Rose Blossom,” the focus track from its first EP of the same title that came out in January last year. The single, full of will to “blossom” despite hardships, returned to the chart after the holiday season was dominated by carols.

NCT DREAM To Be 7th Idol Group In History To Hold Concert At Seoul Olympic Stadium After Canceling Sold-Out Dome Concert
After canceling their sold-out three-night concert at Seoul’s Gocheok Sky Dome, NCT DREAM has rescheduled the show at an even larger venue!
Last month, NCT DREAM was scheduled to perform for three nights at the Gocheok Sky Dome from July 29 to 31, and all three shows were fully sold out—with a staggering 1.6 million people simultaneously logging on to the ticketing site in order to buy tickets. However, when both Mark and Renjun tested positive for COVID-19 days beforehand, the concert was ultimately cancelled .
On August 10, SM Entertainment officially announced that NCT DREAM’s “THE DREAM SHOW 2 : In A Dream” concert had been rescheduled for September 8 and 9—and that the concert would now be held at Seoul Olympic Stadium, the largest stadium in South Korea.
Additionally, for fans who are unable to attend in person, the second night of the concert (September 9) will be streamed live through Naver’s Beyond LIVE.
Only six idol groups in history have ever held concerts at Seoul Olympic Stadium before: H.O.T., g.o.d, Shinhwa, JYJ, EXO, and BTS, making NCT DREAM only the seventh to achieve this impressive feat.
Tickets for “THE DREAM SHOW 2 : In A Dream” will go on pre-sale next week before opening to the general public on August 24 at 8 p.m. KST.

Represented through the intense five-part ( )SCAPE Film on YouTube and their most experimental mini album, NCT DREAM tweaked their signature style for tracks that recognize hardship and offer an empowering, encouraging message. MARK opens intro track “icantfeelanything” announcing, “I might’ve been afraid to be brave,” followed by CHENLE crooning, “‘Cause I’m lost and confused” before an intense breakbeat switches into a chant of frustrated yells.
The septet tackles anxiety on the pacifying R&B of “UNKNOWN” (Encouraging the listener to slowly but surely “Go chase your dreams/ Dive in, dive in, into the unknown”) as they yearn for freedom on hip-hop/ pop cut “BOX” (“I don’t need controllin’, Let me go/Nobody lockin’ me up, nobody stoppin’ me”). The hook-heavy single “Smoothie” flips the group’s tried-and-true foodie styling by inspiring the audience to share their worries with NCT DREAM so they can blend it into a healing formula: “Throw in that doubt and fake, pour in all that pain / Shower that in all this ice, eventually it all melts.”
Before then, read more from MARK , RENJUN , CHENLE , JENO , JAEMIN , HAECHAN and JISUNG on creating their latest album, upcoming world tour and more.
Congratulations on the new album. From the teasers to the music itself, NCT DREAM shares a lot through Dream( )scape . Overall, what are you looking to show in this album?
RENJUN: As expressed through the ( )SCAPE Film trailers, although we have all different jobs and are in different locations, we experience the same external stress and, through those processes, we almost feel like we are liberated. And also the title song itself, you can see that it’s titled “Smoothie,” but it means that we will grind all these bad ingredients and mix them up [into something positive].”
MARK: I think we’ve really grown as people, and as artists, and that definitely reflects the way we make our albums now because I think this album might actually have the most of our identities and our personal colors in it. We were very involved in the process from the very start and we really got to put in the message that we’ve always wanted to deliver to our audiences. This album, in particular, really kind of showcases who we are the most out of all the other albums in terms of that we were very much looking forward to how our fans would respond to that. [ Dream( )scape ] revolved around our ideas, and we were involved with how we wanted this whole message shared, so it made us feel like, “Okay, we need to take more responsibility for this album.”
JENO: This album is the starting point of this year in our new chapter so I think we now want to focus more on that stories that lie within.
RENJUN: It’s always hard to start something and take that first step. Actually, it’s very difficult to be brave and requires a lot of courage. And with this album, we wanted to help others at their own starting line to be brave by themselves.
MARK : Our producers and label were like, “Is there something that you guys want to say in particular for this album?” So, we were thinking among our members but RENJUN was actually thinking, “Musically and visually, we’ve always been so bright and very optimistic, but I think we can kind of express how it’s still NCT DREAM and sometimes we can also have bad dreams as well, you know?” Even though we are going for our dreams, there are hardships that we face in reality. Our hope is to let our audiences escape their fears and negativity; we really want to encourage that. That kind of formed the title of our album as well, which is Dream( )scape .
And I wanted to clarify because I feel like a lot of people would pronounce it as “Dreamscape,” but it’s “Dream Escape.” They took the “e” out because the parentheses are supposed to symbolize a gate, you know? We have to call it “Dream Escape,” I guess — the “e” escaped.
JENO: We express our growth through our music. Since we debuted at such a young age, I think we still have things to figure out from the younger image that our group holds. So, with that in mind, when we were producing this album, we tried to escape from that image that we had.
Teaser Image : icantfeelanything NCT DREAM [DREAM( )SCAPE] ➫ 2024.03.25 6PM (KST) 💿Pre-save&add https://t.co/zbLhG5MkOk #NCTDREAM #Smoothie #NCTDREAM_Smoothie pic.twitter.com/BjmFtQaSNC — NCT DREAM (@NCTsmtown_DREAM) March 6, 2024
It felt like Dream( )scape was viral the moment you unveiled these dark teasers that we haven’t seen from NCT DREAM—I thought the bruised and bloody feet were very striking. Can you explain them and your take on the reactions?
JENO: As you can see in the ( )SCAPE Film , we are locked in our own rooms to show each of the member’s own dreams and identities in this suppressed reality. Eventually, we get to escape after the seven of us gather up, and that’s the storyline that we focused on when we were filming.
MARK: It was really fun seeing how after every photo got released, the fans were like, “Oh, what does this mean? What does this symbolize? I think there’s a story behind all this.” I really liked to see how they were very attentive to each and every detail of the photo, and sometimes even, we were surprised by how they interpreted some parts of a photo or video — their trying to detect what it all meant before everything was released was one of the things that we really liked about this promotion.
Not to pry, but that’s a great message that I imagine many artists relate to. Is there anything you dealt with where things looked good on the outside, but something else was going on inside?
RENJUN: I think everyone has pain and scars from their lives that they don’t want to show until they’re ready. So, maybe talking to people [about this subject] could make others comfortable to want to reveal their pains.
JENO: To continue that, I think the rooms that I described earlier really relate to this album, and that’s where the story and concept came from.
MARK: I think there are a lot of times where I feel very hungry on set, but I just can’t show that to the people because I feel like that might be delaying the whole schedule, you know? Very painful…
RENJUN: He’s joking! He’s always kidding.
MARK: I mean, there’s a seed of truth. [Group laughs.] But don’t worry too much.
MARK: So, it was really hard choosing the title track because we had a lot of meetings and heard a lot of different options of songs for the title track [single], but we eventually chose “Smoothie” because one of the main goals we had for this comeback was to come up with a song that had the easiest hook but still had an impact. In a way, we could have chosen a more complex song, but we wanted to really narrow it down to the simplest type of hook that anyone can kind of catch on, even from the first listen, and I remember how we agreed that “Smoothie” would be the one because of that reason specifically.
JAEMIN: There are a lot of ingredients from which you make a “Smoothie” pictured in the music video, and what we wanted to express was cutting through all these bad ingredients to viewers — that’s the plot point that you might want to look forward to the most when watching.
One of my favorite tracks from your LP last year, ISTJ: The 3rd Album , was “Yogurt Shake,” and I wondered if “Smoothie” was related to it.
MARK: That’s also one thing we wanted to say! We have a lot of songs that relate to food or something you can eat, which is why we wanted to have the “Dirty Smoothie” as the title because we didn’t want it to sound too common or something that people can expect right away.
Looking at some of the other Dream( )scape tracks you were involved in, I love the lyrics in “BOX,” which MARK co-wrote. Did this come from a personal place or do you ever feel NCT DREAM is put into a box?
MARK: I relate to what RENJUN said because, whether we are or aren’t aware of it, we all have our own boxes internally as well. I realized that this song’s theme and energy really fit the album’s concept — we can’t be trapped in your frame or opinions anymore. If you were to put that as a “BOX,” this song helps us come out of that and I just wanted to put that energy into the verses that I wrote.
MARK and JENO took part in “UNKNOWN,” which I found comforting and I think fans will too.
MARK: Just from the word, “unknown,” I think a lot of people can relate to being afraid when it’s something that you’re not familiar with — even though they know that they have to take that step. We use the analogy of a body of water as something being “UNKNOWN” so you can dive into the unknown by taking a leap of faith. When me and JENO were writing, we really wanted to express how we know that we want to take that dive so let’s just take the leap of fate together — because it’s always better to do something with someone you trust rather than do it alone.
The album closes with “Breathing,” co-written by MARK, JENO, JAEMIN and JISUNG.
JENO: When I was making the rap, the song content itself is very dark and restrictive, feeling like your breath is running out — that is, until I met you and that became the cure. So, that’s the theme that we set from the start.
RENJUN: The first part of the song starts with “Where I am” and the last part ends with “Here I am.” When we were recording, we put our emotions and struggles into this idea of feeling lost, but when we were getting close to the end, we felt like, “Oh, I am here and I am determined.”
JISUNG: I think it’s going to be a better concert than The Dream Show 2. We’re still working on it, but we set Dream( )scape as the direction and focus on The Dream Show 3 tour. It’ll be a very different concert because we’re now more experienced, we have new songs and I think we can put out more diverse and improved sides of ourselves.
JENO: This year, fans can look forward to a show where each section has its own strong, independent color and various charms in each section — that’s the key point.
RENJUN: It’s almost like riding a rollercoaster because our emotions throughout the sections have a dynamic to it. So, fans can also ride the ups and downs with us.
What else do fans need to know right now ?
CHENLE: We worked really hard on this album, so I hope you guys look forward to it from the trailer to the stages we’re going to perform when we have the album out. It’s going to be a very busy year for us and we’re going to look to do a lot of things. We’ll be getting closer with you all so please look forward to all that.

NCT Dream play ‘Fruit Ninja’ in real life for ‘Smoothie’ music video
The boyband will tour in support of the project this May
NCT Dream have released their brand-new mini-album ‘Dream( )scape’, which dropped alongside a music video for title track ‘Smoothie’.

In the trippy music video for ‘Smoothie’, members of the boyband wield swords while slicing up giant fruits. Other scenes in the clip also feature various fruit-inspired visuals, alongside thrilling action scenes and more.
“Smoothie Smoothie Smoothie, shake it all out and grind it / Smoothie Smoothie Smoothie, Smoothie Smoothie Smoothie / Dirty taste, take it,” the band rap on the new song’s chorus.
‘Dream( )scape’ marks NCT Dream’s seventh mini-album and features six new tracks: ‘icantfeelanything’, ‘Smoothie’, ‘Box’, ‘Carat Cake’, ‘Unknown’ and ‘Breathing’.
NCT Dream are set to embark on a world tour in support of their new mini-album. Their upcoming 2024 ‘The Dream Show 3: Dream( )scape’ world tour will kick off with a three-night residency at Seoul’s Gocheok Sky Dome in early May.
Thereafter, the boyband will head to Japan and Southeast Asia from May to August. The seven-piece will also play concerts in Europe, Latin America and North America from August to November, with more detailed dates set to follow.
‘Dream( )scape’ comes about eight months after their full-length album ‘ISTJ’ in July 2023 . That record featured a title track of the same name as well as pre-release track ‘Broken Melodies’, which was later named one of the best K-pop songs of 2023 by NME .

NCT DREAM drops 'DREAM( )SCAPE' album with more intense themes
N CT DREAM is back with its new album, "DREAM( )SCAPE," departing from its typical upbeat tracks, opting instead for a more intense vibe. Returning to the K-pop scene just eight months after its latest hit "ISTJ," the group ventures into new territory with this latest album.
The unit boy group, which debuted in 2016 under SM Entertainment's extensive NCT roster, features seven talented members: Mark, Renjun, Jeno, Jaemin, Jisung, Haechan and Chenle. The group garnered widespread acclaim for its energetic tunes celebrating hopes and dreams, with tracks including "Boom" (2019), "Hello Future" (2021) and "Candy" (2022).
While the group's dedication to singing about pursuing one's dreams remains unchanged, the latest release now extends to a wider aspiration of offering solace to those grappling with despair.
"At the heart of our debut was always the goal of delivering a message of hope. Yet, with this album, we wanted to create songs that could reach even those without dreams, including those enduring nightmarish days in life," said Mark, the group's leader, during a vibrant press event at a hotel in Gwangjin District, Seoul, Monday.
"Despite our bright onstage personas, each of us has experienced personal struggles and times devoid of dreams. From that shared empathy, we crafted an album resonating with youth," Mark added.
The overarching message of comfort for those without dreams permeates the entire album, with its title track, "Smoothie" standing out. Behind its infectious groove, with the classic 808 bass sound, lies a strong message of rejecting societal judgments and prejudices.
"As we journey through life, we inevitably face judgments and stereotypes that we'd prefer to avoid. 'Smoothie' symbolizes our determination to 'blend away' and 'drink up' these negative perspectives, empowering us to forge our own path," Renjun explained.
"Smoothies usually give off refreshing and sweet vibes, but we opted to infuse it with a twist by exploring the concept of a 'dirty' smoothie ... I believe this song came out with a much more intense tone since it showcases our determination to blend away all the negativities," Mark said.
The album also features five more tracks, including "icantfeelanything," "BOX," "Carat Cake," "UNKNOWN," and "Breathing," all crafted to offer profound comfort to those without dreams and hopes.
While some have expressed concerns regarding the departure from NCT DREAM's typically brighter, youthful image, the members remained steadfast in their resolve to convey a new style.
"Beyond hopeful narratives, there are myriad stories to tell about dreams, including stories of nightmares or even situations where dreams seem absent," Jeno said. "I hope our listeners view this album as the start of exploring more stories about dreams. Instead of seeing it as a change in concept, consider it an expansion of our storytelling."
Haechan also addressed fans' potential surprise at the new direction, emphasizing their versatility as a group.
"Though some aspects may seem unfamiliar, we hope you recognize our ability to explore various styles without being confined to one genre or concept," Haechan highlighted.
Despite nearing the eighth year since its debut, NCT DREAM remains driven by an "unusual" level of ambition, with the team's latest album coming as yet another bold endeavor.
"Even after all these years, our passion and ambition remain extraordinary, almost to an unusual level. This amount of dedication is not only a source of pride for our team, but also for our fans," Mark emphasized.
"We hope this album serves as another unique narrative about dreams, albeit in a slightly different light."
