The ‘epic restaurant’ group NCT DREAM has returned with the concept of ‘time travel’.They plan to fill the regret of their hiatus through double title tracks.

On the morning of the 14th NCT NCT DREAM held a production conference for their 5th full-length album ‘Go Back To The Future’ at Lotte Cinema World Tower in Songpa-gu, Seoul.

On this day, when asked about his feelings about the concert held at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 12th, Jaemin said, “I think it’s thanks to Season 2 who always fill the concert hall like this.If those who watched the concert felt, ‘It was definitely worth it to watch the Dream concert,’ then I think it was a worthwhile concert for us.Since we started our new album with a tour, we will show various sides of ourselves and show the world our cool side.”





Jisung said about the choreographic characteristics of ‘BTTF’, “It’s honestly the most physically exhausting dance I’ve ever danced.It feels a bit like doing the first verse of ‘BTTF’ is a euphemism for another song.You can look forward to it.” Jeno then raised expectations by saying, “If you look closely at the choreography, the theme of time travel is well expressed.I think it’ll be a fun choreography if you watch it carefully.”

Mark explained the reason why he set the theme of this fifth regular album as time travel, saying, “I wonder if there is a team with a narrative as delicious as Dream.I always proudly think of ourselves as a restaurant full of narratives.I thought that we had a lot to talk about as we have been together for 10 years, and that we have a lot to talk about in terms of time.” He continued, “What I’ve always wanted to have was a positive message and ambition.I thought that we could show our mature appearance in one complete album.It’s an album that I immersed myself in and had fun preparing.”





NCT DREAM will be celebrating their 9th debut anniversary next month.Regarding this, Jisung said, “Actually, I’m grateful that we’ve been active like this for 9 years.I feel proud that we’re the ones who can hold a concert even though it’s our 9th anniversary.We weren’t very active in the first half of the year, but I think we’ll be very busy in the second half of the year and be able to show you more of our good sides.”

Haechan continued, “We’re approaching our 9th anniversary, but our passion is still the same as it was on our 9th debut day.This year, we’re planning on promoting and touring, and I’ll just say that there will be something fun at the end of the year.”

Regarding the goal for this activity, Haechan expressed his determination, saying, “The first goal is to convey the worldview that we have ambitiously prepared well.And for this performance as well, the company really gritted its teeth and prepared hard.I hope that our passion is conveyed well to the fans.”







Meanwhile, NCT DREAM 5th full-length album ‘Go Back To The Future’ will be released in full on various global music platforms at 6 PM on July 14th.

The title song ‘BTTF’ conveys the message that NCT DREAM, who gained the power to change the future through time travel, should look back on their past without regrets and return to their most brilliant future.The dynamic sound that seems to go back and forth between the past and future over the signature synth bass increases immersion with a SF sensibility that fits the song’s theme.

Another title song, ‘CHILLER’, is an impressive song with experimental sounds, unique synth textures, and unexpected developments.It shows the confident and cheerful energy of ‘CHILLER’ who 100% enjoys its most shining moments, and heralds a new chapter for NCT DREAM.
