SM said the anniversary project, titled "NCT 2026" and promoted with the slogan "Everything, All At Once, Neo," will bring together the group's 10-year narrative while setting the direction for its next phase.
NCT unveiled a commemorative logo and launched a promotional website for the project on its official social media accounts.
Under the plan released Thursday, NCT 127 will release an album and embark on a tour in the third quarter, while NCT Dream will hold a meet-and-greet event for fans in the third quarter before dropping a new album in the fourth. WayV plans an album and tour in the third quarter, and NCT Wish will start the year with its first studio album on April 20, followed by a Japanese single and another album later in the year.
To further celebrate the anniversary, NCT will open a pop-up store in Seoul from May 15-23 and stage a dedicated exhibition in the third quarter, SM said.
