NCT is scheduled to make a comeback next month after renewing all contracts.

We have some very welcome news to share after a long time. NCT 127, who debuted in 2016 and have shown us amazing music and performances, are reportedly making a surprise comeback on August 24th with their 7th full-length album, BLINGY. This album is said to be a meaningful new release that reflects on the journey the members have walked together over the past 10 years, capturing their deep pride and solidarity as a team.

What makes this comeback even more special is that all the members—Johnny, Taeyong, Yuta, Doyoung, Jaehyun, Jungwoo, and Haechan—have renewed their contracts with their agency, SM Entertainment. I believe this is a precious result born from the mutual trust and affection for the fans that have been steadily built up over a long period of time. Thanks to the news of all members renewing their contracts, fans' expectations for this comeback seem to have grown even higher.

This 7th studio album is packed with a total of 9 songs that showcase NCT 127's unique color. Just as they have left a strong impression on the global stage with numerous hit songs such as "Fire Truck," "Cherry Bomb," "Hero," and "Sticker," these new songs are expected to continue their signature freshness. As a group based in Seoul that has traversed the world stage, they are expected to once again prove their unwavering musical growth.

Following their comeback, they are scheduled to hold their fifth world tour, NEO CITY THE REDLINE, starting in September 2026, where they will passionately connect with fans around the world. It is a moment that makes me truly look forward to the brilliant future that all the members will create together. Having passed through a long journey of 10 years, I want us all to cheer together for the new leap forward of NCT 127, who will continue to be active as one team for a long time to come.
