NCT 127 - Up Next Session: NCT 127


  • I. Introduction

    Up Next Session: NCT 127 is a special EP created for Apple Music from the permanent NCT sub-unit, NCT 127. It was released on October 22, 2018.


    II. Background and Release

    In Oct 2, 2018, NCT 127 became the first and only K-pop group selected to appear in Apple Music's "Up Next" spotlight series, which focuses on rising talent. NCT 127 had previously been Apple Music's first K-pop "New Artist of the Week" in 2017 for "Cherry Bomb," as well as premiering a special choreography video of "Touch" exclusively on Apple Music.


    As part of the "Up Next" promotions, NCT 127 featured in special videos, a rooftop performance in LA, performances at Apple Stores and an exclusive Apple Music EP.


    The EP combines songs from three previous EPs with exclusive remixes and versions, as well as one new song, "What We Talkin' Bout." This release occurred during NCT 127's heavy American push to support Regular-Irregular, so three of the four songs are in English: a remix of the English version of "Regular," a new English version of "Cherry Bomb" and a new song "What We Talkin' Bout" (feat. Marteen). Because this was an Apple Music exclusive, all of the songs on this EP are only available on this release.

    VI. Trivia

    - Because the stage was slippery and members slipped, they changed out shoes during these performances.
