NCT Dream, known for weaving rich narratives into their music, returns with a time-travel concept in their 5th full album.
On July 14, the group held a press conference at Lotte Cinema World Tower in Seoul to mark the release of their 5th full-length album 'Go Back To The Future'.
Reflecting on their concert at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 12th, Jaemin said, “It’s all thanks to Czennies who fill up the venue every time. If people left the show thinking, ‘It was worth seeing a DREAM concert,’ that alone makes it worthwhile for us. Since we’re kicking off this new album through the tour, we’ll show many different sides of ourselves and present a worldwide performance.”
When asked about the choreography of title track "BTTF", Jisung commented, “Honestly, this might be the most physically demanding dance we’ve ever done. Performing just the first verse feels like finishing an entire song. You can look forward to it.”
Jeno added, “If you pay close attention to the choreography, you’ll see how it reflects the theme of time travel. It’ll be fun to watch the details.”
As for why they chose time travel as the theme for this album, Mark explained, “I don’t think there’s another group with storytelling as rich as DREAM. We’re proud of that. Now that we’re nearly 10 years in, we have a lot to say. We’ve always wanted to convey a positive message and ambition. This album is our way of showing a more mature version of ourselves through a complete, well-rounded work. We had a lot of fun immersing ourselves in it while preparing.”
With their 9th debut anniversary approaching next month, Jisung shared, “I’m really grateful we’ve been active for nine years. It’s something we’re proud of—that we’re still able to perform concerts at this point. We were relatively quiet in the first half of the year, but we’ll be super busy in the second half and show you our best.”
Haechan added, “Even though it’s our 9th anniversary, our passion feels like we debuted just 9 days ago. We’ll be active with promotions and touring this year, and I think there might be something fun toward the end of the year… that’s all I’ll say for now.”
On the group’s goals for this comeback, Haechan said, “First, we really want to get our ambitious world-building across to fans. The performance and everything else—our company and team put everything into this. I hope our passion reaches the fans.”
NCT Dream’s 5th full album 'Go Back To The Future' will be released on July 14 at 6 p.m. KST on major global music platforms.
