SM Entertainment will introduce two new members to NCT when the group's album comes out next month.
According to a report by Zapzee, the label bared plans to expand the membership of NCT even more, bringing the group to a total of 23 members.
The supersized group already has a total of 18 original members coming from NCT 127, NCT U, and NCT Dream. NCT's Chinese sub-unit WayV added three additional members.
However, with the release of NCT's 2020 comeback album next month, two new members will debut. Shotaru and Seongchan will reportedly be introduced as members of NCT U soon. For the meantime, they will be part of NCT's overall line up.
NCTzens, the official fandom of NCT, are used to cheering for multiple members. The concept of NCT (Neo Culture Technology) from the beginning was having an unlimited number of members, who are divided into different sub units.
NCT is, currently, the biggest Kpop idol group with 21 members and they are poised to widen the gap against other groups with the addition of two new idols.
According to a report by All Kpop, NCT will introduce the new members through a special Resonance Live Event - Wish 2020 on September 23. Fans will be allowed to meet Shotaru and Seongchan for the first time during the live video. They will also be introduced to the Year Party video which will showcase NCT 2020's unique concept and identity for the upcoming comeback.
With less than a month left, fans are already excited for NCT's comeback album entitled NCT 2020: Resonance Pt. 1, which will be released on October 12th.
They will also be treated to another comeback entitled NCT 2020: Resonance Pt.2, at a later date. SM has yet to announce the final release date for the second album.
The albums are expected to be connected to NCT's previous releases. According to SM Entertainment, Resonance Pt. 1 will feature 12 tracks.
The album will feature two title tracks similar to what SuperM did with "100" and "Tiger Inside." NCT's title tracks are entitled "Make a Wish" and "From Home." Pre-orders are already open for NCT's 2020 comeback album.
As part of the promotions for the album, the group released a teaser for the comeback featuring a montage of previous NCT videos. More teaser images and videos will be released until October 19.
In the meantime, fans are already preparing to welcome back their biases when they perform on stage together again after a long time. Some NCTzens on social media have already warned newbies that it could get pretty noisy when all of the members step on to the stage and deliver their powerhouse performances.
