Debut
A presentation was delivered in January 2016 by Lee Soo-man, the founder of SM Entertainment. The plan was to form a new boy band as per their strategy of cultural content.
The plan also included the formation of multiple sub-units, who later would collaborate to create music.
These sub-units would not be limited to South Korea but will be framed in different cities or even countries.
This led to the creation of the band in 2016.
SM Entertainment then announced the very first sub-unit on 4th April.
The sub-unit was named NCT U. The announcement of the second sub-unit named NCT 127 was made on 1st July. The 127 stands for the longitude of the city of Seoul. On the 19th of August, SM Entertainment introduced the band’s third sub-unit, NCT Dream. The most recent sub-unit; WayV, which is also a Chinese sub-unit of the band, was officially announced on 31st December 2018.
