Op are you trying to say that thi s is what i'd find if i googled 'what's nct's concept'?

This is super creepy i love it. That terrible green power point font is great too.

[torontok.livejournal.com]

This is their pathcode

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

lmao at them making Johnny some kind of key player in the concept. gotta give him something to do i guess.

[yxerin.livejournal.com]

lmaoooo you didn't need to drag him like that

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

at least they aren't making him pretend DJ anymore. sparing us that embarrassment.

[mikachi613.livejournal.com]

why they doin my hometown boy wrong like that

[carmine-pink.livejournal.com]

Mind. Blown. This is exactly how my weirdest dreams look like.

[ironicmustache.livejournal.com]

all those 'NCT is SM's flop' articles and comments must've gotten to them.

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

are they a flop by anyone's standards? i don't really know how they're doing tbh i assumed 'as well as any sm group, which is very well'

[babyjenkski.livejournal.com]

Sweethear, what is mindie?

[ironicmustache.livejournal.com]

they're not actual flops compared to nugus and middle companies, but they're taking longer to catch on than exo (and i guess all of sm's other groups) so people have been calling them SM's flop.there's been lots of articles on all the net-translation sites over the past few months (ex: http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.com/2018/01/nct-fans-angered-at-section-tv-for.html)

but people also used to call red velvet sm flops until red flavor soooo ....

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

oh wow those comments. this makes me sad bc even though i'm not into them as a group i think their music is great. it's not public friendly though, that's true. cherry bomb is a masterpiece but i don't see it being next fantastic baby or growl

also calling red velvet flops makes no sense? red flavor did best but both ICC and DD are not that far behind. Peek a boo did the worst out of those free i think? but tbh i don't know what streaming is and i'm only talking about the dl, so i might be totally wrong about this lol

[mikachi613.livejournal.com]

I really like their music, I think they're just not being marketed correctly or to the right audience

[yxerin.livejournal.com]

i was enjoying it despite the fake-deepness until "we filmed members sleeping" fjsjssklskl WHAT
jk i'm in tho

[merlugd.livejournal.com]

Exactly..zzzzzzzzzzz

[mc1a.livejournal.com]

The cringe is real

[callherblondie.livejournal.com]

I lol'd at Scientist Johnny doing his dream research study that involved filming the dreamies while sleeping like a creeper.

[mc1a.livejournal.com]

Right? Everything was so intriguing until they mentioned Johnny and I lost it. This quality content.

[callherblondie.livejournal.com]

Scientist Johnny cracked me the fuck up, I feel like he's always trying to act like some smart hipster with his cappuccinos in the morning, his thinky books, and his love for Lana Del Rey.

[giriboy.livejournal.com]

I LOVE THIS! holy shit

[smilla-sini.livejournal.com]

Loving it. Also I'm just really happy to finally see Ten.

[showminomoney.livejournal.com]

I'm into it! I'm here for the artsy ott stuff!!

[nekobot.livejournal.com]

I love their visual output. Wondering if they have a Blur fan on staff and took "No Distance Left To Run" inspo for this.

[callherblondie.livejournal.com]

This is SM so...highly doubtful lol

[nekobot.livejournal.com]

NCT Dancing milk box concept

[callherblondie.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't mind if Taeyong took a break from writing his thirsty hoe raps and wrote NCT's version of an epic heartbanger a la Tender. That's how I would know this group is destined for greatness.

[anconeous.livejournal.com]

OMG I laughed so hard at "thirsty hoe raps."

[nekobot.livejournal.com]

Ha! If he has it in him then please yes! I wonder which member of the group he is going to kick out only for them to get an amazing solo career.

[callherblondie.livejournal.com]

Gotta be Doyoung that kid can irritate the piss out of him with very little effort.

[zui-circus.livejournal.com]

Creepy AF, but great production value.

[seulgibear.livejournal.com]

generous kings!!!! come on sm 💪 this is gorgeous i'm so into this ~modern art project, i love their dream concept and am super happy sm keeps expanding on it. give me everything!!!! it's going to be amazing

[jinkiestabi.livejournal.com]

This sounds like they're recruiting me to join a cult or some kind of secret NCT society.

Okay, I'm in.

[scionofawhisper.livejournal.com]

Everything SM does with NCT is weird, but I like it.

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

lmao same

[angela-derp-otp.livejournal.com]

this is so OTT, but lbr SM has to do the most in order to give NCT a chance to catch up to their other boygroups

[keki7.livejournal.com]

I am intrigued. Since the comeback is in March are we going to get these documentaries leading to teasers and finally the MV?

They gave Johnny a role! I hope they give Haechan a role too because my child has been wasted in NCT127.

[callherblondie.livejournal.com]

Are we gonna get 18 eps with 18 different dreams, one for each member?

I feel like I'm being shown a cult brainwashing video. All good though, I wouldn't mind being in CultCT (better than Bogum's cult).

[sparkb.livejournal.com]

Lmaooo @ your last statement

[callherblondie.livejournal.com]

Any chance I can take to make fun of Bogum and his cult puts a smile on my face.

[nekobot.livejournal.com]

NCtientoloT has a nice ring to it

[sparkb.livejournal.com]

Glad that theyre consistent with this dream concept

[mikachi613.livejournal.com]

Yes I realize the irony that it's a Johnny Bravo screencap. Still appropriate.

[haitsu-takaoga.livejournal.com]

OMG! I REALLY LOVE THIS KIND OF TRIPPY AESTHETIC. I've been downloading all their teaser now just because it's so good! I love that SM feed us this, this is the kinda content i love.

[camified.livejournal.com]

For some bizarre and terrible reason this made me think of that doc 'We Live in Public'

Anyway. I'm amazed at how much thought sm put into this. Several of NCT's past songs/styling allude to this trippy idea of dreams but it's interesting that they're only now piecing it all together for us.

[camified.livejournal.com]

this is the least excessive 'over hyping' sm has done...

[audiograms.livejournal.com]

This is a gift.
