If this is accurate, it would signify the sub-unit’s initial summer release in seven years, as their last one was “Cherry Bomb”released in June 2017.
Additionally, this upcoming album will mark the sixth full album release for the group, but it will be the first one without leader Taeyong due to his ongoing military service.
Similarly, it’s not only the announcement of the comeback that’s attracting interest.
The emergence of recent photos showing Doyoung with a bold silver-blond hair color surprised fans.
Throughout his K-Pop career, he has become known for his typically dark and natural hair colors. The sudden change in color has left many questioning if the photos were altered.
Eventually, it became evident that Doyoung’s new appearance is in fact genuine.
The NCT 127 member was seen at the airport showing off his newly-dyed platinum locks, indicating that he had recently changed his hair color in anticipation of the group’s upcoming promotions.
