SM announced plans to launch an NCT China unit on August 13, 2018. The formation of the group was finalized and announced on December 31, under a new China-exclusive label. Due to the political tensions between China and South Korea at the time, the group was not promoted as an NCT sub unit.
III. 2019: WayV debut
Yangyang debuted in the permanent Chinese sub unit WayV on January 17, 2019 with the EP The Vision. Yangyang is considered one of NCT’s best rappers, although his style is more laidback than the other top rappers. His flow is more languid and looping, rather than rapid fire. He can be fast, but it’s not as staccato, reflective of WayV's sleeker, sexier sound and style compared to the other sub units, as well as a more fluid style of dance.
