With NCT growing each year in both popularity and size, they have brought about a unique music style into the K-pop industry. Let’s take a look at some throwbacks of their youngest sub-unit, NCT Dream.

“Chewing Gum”

“Chewing Gum” is NCT Dream’s debut song and is as sugary sweet and cute as it can get. The repetitive use of the lyrics “Chew chew chew chew chewing gum” is so addictive and adds to the youthful energy of this song. Chocked full of bright colors and cute edits, the music perfectly fits the song. The most iconic part of this video is their choreography and their incorporation of hoverboards. They were so fluid with the transitions of the hoverboards, you can’t help but be amazed with every dance performance. 

“We Go Up”

Similar to “Chewing Gum,” “We Go Up” has an addictive youthful sound but adds more of a twist to it with its use of hip-hop in this bright song. As this was the final comeback before member Mark was about to leave, they added a lot of rap parts into this song and had really smooth transitions into the vocal parts of the song. The music video feels very nostalgic as it shows scenes of summer with fun and was a beautiful send-off for the group to say goodbye to Mark.

“BOOM”

“BOOM” brings a mature side to NCT Dream and shows the edgy side and is quite spicy compared to their previous comebacks. The beat is immediately addictive and allows the members to truly focus on their vocals for this song with the repetitive lyrics of “Boom boom boom.” The music video adds to the chicness of this song as they use a variety of scenes from parking garages to rococo-styled rooms. It undeniably brought a new side to NCT Dream that will leave you entranced.
