NCT to mark 10th anniv. with albums, tours, pop-ups
K-pop supergroup NCT will celebrate its 10th anniversary this year with a series of albums, tours and pop-up events under a new project, its agency SM Entertainment said Thursday. The multi-unit group — which includes acts such as NCT 127 and NCT Dream — made its debut on April 9, 2016, when its first sub-unit NCT U released the debut single "The 7th Sense." SM said the anniversary project, titled "NCT 2026" and promoted with the slogan "Everything, All At Once, Neo," will bring together the group's 10-year narrative while setting the direction for its next phase. NCT unveiled a commemorative logo and launched a promotional website for the project on its official social media accounts. Under the plan released Thursday, NCT 127 will release an album and embark on a tour in the third quarter, while NCT Dream will hold a meet-and-greet event for fans in the third quarter before dropping a new album in the fourth. WayV plans an album and tour in the third quarter, and NCT Wish will start the year with its first studio album on April 20, followed by a Japanese single and another album lat
