* TechnicianVersusPerformer: Ten is the former and Taeyong is the latter when it comes to dancing.
* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: Music/WayV is the only unit to not start with "[[ThemeNaming NCT]]", though its original name was "NCT China".
** The main reason for this is due to [[BannedInChina China's strict restrictions of K-pop content]]. NCT cannot promote in the country, but they can simply have a spin-off unit with a different name and is composed of non-Korean members.
