24'''NCT''' (Korean: 엔시티), is a [[KoreanPopMusic South Korean]] [[BoyBand boy band]] formed and managed by Creator/SMEntertainment. Their name stands for [[TakeOverTheWorld the Hallyu localization project]] [[AcronymAndAbbreviationOverload Neo Culture Technology]][[note]]Neo stands for "new", while Culture Technology / Cultural Technology refers to the system created by SM Entertainment and is currently used by all South Korean agencies to form, manage, and promote K-pop artists internationally[[/note]], a term coined by SM Entertainment founder Lee Soo-man to describe the group's concept of having an unlimited number of members divided into [[CastHerd multiple sub-units]] based in various cities worldwide. The group currently has six sub-units: '''NCT U'''[[note]]Rotational members[[/note]], '''NCT 127'''[[note]]based in Seoul[[/note]], '''NCT DREAM'''[[note]]Consists of the younger members[[/note]], '''Music/WayV'''[[note]]based in China[[/note]], '''NCT DOJAEJUNG'''[[note]]consists of Doyoung, Jaehyun, and Jungwoo[[/note]], and '''NCT WISH'''[[note]]based in Japan[[/note]].
25
26Prior to 2023, there were 23 members. However, on February 24, 2023, SM Entertainment announced that they're abandoning the unlimited concept with the Tokyo sub-unit being the last sub-unit to debut with seven new members. On May 10, 2023, Lucas left NCT and [=WayV=] to pursue his solo activities. Then on May 24, 2023, Shotaro and Sungchan departed from NCT to join SM Entertainment's new boy group, RIIZE, along with SM Rookies Eunseok and Seunghan, who appeared in ''Welcome to NCT Universe''. The 7-member line-up of the Japan sub-unit was later announced, until Jungmin's departure on October 2, 2023. NCT, as a whole, is composed of 26 members.
27
28On June 5, 2023, Taeyong became the first member to debut as a solo artist with his extended play, ''Shalala''.

200Tropes relating to Music/WayV can be found on that page.
201----
202!NCT provides examples of:
203
204[[folder:General Tropes]]
205* BoyBand: A [[KoreanPopMusic Korean Pop Music]] boy-band.
206* CastFullOfPrettyBoys: As per the norm for any standard boy band from Korea.
207* ConfessionCam: Was set up during the last episode of ''NCT Life in Bangkok''. Brought Taeil to tears.
208* CookingDuel: The plot behind ''"NCT Life: Korean Cuisine Challenge"''
209%%* CosmeticAward: The puzzle in the end of'"NCT Life in Seoul".
210* CrowdChant: Some Music Shows staff reported their fanchants to be the most loud and united.
211* DebutQueue: We are still waiting for NCT Tokyo...
212%%* DocumentaryEpisode: ''"NCT Life"''
213* GenreShift: From the experimental hip-hop music of NCT 127 to the bubblegum pop music of NCT Dream.
214* GentleGiant: Most of the taller (and older) members, such as Johnny and Jaehyun, are this.
215* GratuitousEnglish: "Firetruck", "That's a long ass ride", etc. Inverted in "Mad City", where Mark has a whole verse in English, which makes perfect sense.
216* LighterAndSofter: NCT Dream was envisioned as a cuter, more youthful version of NCT as the members at the time of debut had an average age of 14-17, and their first two songs were about having a FirstLove. Suddenly, they released "Go", a DarkerAndEdgier GenreShift from their previous works.
217** Ironically, NCT 127, who released a song around the same time as NCT Dream's "Go", did the opposite. Their previous discography was filled with hardcore hip-hop, dark R&B and heavy electronic songs, but suddenly, they released a colorful music video with a cute, pop love song -- "Touch."
218%%* LimitedWardrobe: They are known to recycle clothes within the group.
219* OfficiallyShortenedTitle: The group's name is Neo Culture Technology, which is officially shortened to just NCT, and most casual listeners don't even know the real meaning behind it.
220* PerformanceVideo: Have this for all of their title tracks.
221* RealityShow: ''"NCT Life"'' and its variations.
222* SingerSongwriter: Mark and Taeyong have been actively taking part in writing their lyrics from the very debut.
223* TeamHandStack: It's a tradition for them to do this before every performance.
224* TravelogueShow: ''"NCT Life"'' and the video logs present in the NCT [=YouTube=] channel.
225* VocalDissonance: Most of the Dreamies, ever since they hit puberty. Jisung in particular is a very good example of this trope.
226* VocalTagTeam: Taeil, Doyoung, Jaehyun, and Haechan.
227* AWildRapperAppears: Well, they are a contemporary K-Pop band, there has to be at least one.
228** Taeyong in Music/{{Red Velvet}}'s "Be Natural".
229[[/folder]]
230
231[[folder:NCT U]]
232* BigWordShout: ''RAISE THE ROOF!'' '''RAAAAAAAIIIIIIISE!'''
233* InterchangeableAsianCultures: The ''Aladdin''-themed music video for "Make A Wish (Birthday Song)" got into some quite of trouble from Middle Eastern, Muslim, and Indian fans, with one of the many reasons being their cultures interchanged as seen from the set designs, outfits, and choreography.
234* NeverTrustATrailer: The "Synchronization of your dreams" version of "The 7th Sense" was sung by another set of members, and also those who appeared in the trailer were not the ones who sung it either.
235* PrecisionFStrike: "The 7th Sense" contains this: ''"Uh, and that's a long'' ass ''ride"''.
236* RevolvingDoorBand: The main concept of NCT U is that the line-up is rotational, and members constantly change from time to time depending on the genre of the song.
237** For example, "From Home" is an emotional ballad song, so the members participating are NCT's vocalists. Meanwhile, "OK!" is a rap track composed of NCT's main rappers.
238* TheStinger: The music video for "Make A Wish (Birthday Song)" contains a post-credits teaser for Music/{{aespa}}'s debut.
239[[/folder]]
240
241[[folder:NCT 127]]
242* AutoTune: Has an unreasonable addition to Taeyong's opening rap in "Sticker".
243* AwesomePersonnelCarrier: There are 10 custom-made armored vehicles in the music video for "Fact Check".
244* BadassBoast: "Mad City", "Cherry Bomb", "Lemonade", and "2 Baddies". Can be also considered a case of [[SelfEmpowermentAnthem Self-Empowerment Anthem]].
245* BaitAndSwitch: "Designer" at first sets up a badass song, with its intro featuring adlibs from Mark… until it turns into a cute-sounding song about falling in love.
246* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: In the music video for "Fact Check", Mark is shown floating in space with nothing but his usual stage outfit.
247* CallBack:
248** Lyrics in "Bring the Noize" include the group's past title tracks.
249** In "Whiplash", Mark raps his iconic line from "The 7th Sense": ''"uh, long ass ride."''
250* CensoredTitle: "2 Baddies" was originally titled "2 Bitches 1 Porsche".
251* ComputerGeneratedImages: The music videos for "Sticker", "Favorite", and "2 Baddies" are CGI-loaded.
252* CoolCar: The [[https://twitter.com/jaehyunpetals/status/1570384869032890368?s=20&t=ctMrt1oKwvt9WBdgVadpMQ customized Porsche]] specifically made for "2 Baddies".
253* {{Cowboy}}: The concept for "Sticker".
254* DerangedAnimation: The trippy music video for "2 Baddies" takes the crown.
255* DistinctDoubleAlbum: While it could technically be considered more of a double EP, ''Regular-Irregular'' features two different styles on a single disc. The first half is lighter pop fare that focuses on the concept of reality, while the second half carries more hip-hop influences and focuses on dreams and ideals. The repackaged version of the album, ''Regulate'', adds new songs that further emphasize the duality.
256* HackerCollective: The members appear as college students-at-day and hackers-at-night in the [[https://youtu.be/rPtMMJmO24w "Who is Sticker?" teaser]] for ''Sticker''.
257* HellBentForLeather: Most of the stage outfits for "Punch" are black leather, which are mixed-and-matched for different members in different performances.
258* HollywoodCalifornia: The teaser photos for ''Ay-Yo'' were taken at the Pink Motel in Los Angeles.
259* IAmGreatSong: "Cherry Bomb" is all about them being ''the biggest hit on this stage''.
260* IntercourseWithYou: The lyrics for "[[https://youtu.be/3aXICXndIRE Whiplash]]" and "[[https://youtu.be/MGYvoiixLmM Baby Don't Like It]]".
261* JitterCam: Used for effect in certain performances of "Cherry Bomb," such as [[https://youtu.be/nC4fJNYODxw?t=65 this one]].
262* LyricSwap: In most of the South Korean television broadcasts for "2 Baddies", the lyrics ''"2 Baddies 1 Porsche"'' were changed to ''"2 Baddies 1 Squad"'' due to brand name censorship.
263* MartialArtsMovie: The concept for "Kick It".
264* MoodWhiplash: Applies to all of their albums, which would usually start with an energetic hip-hop song followed by a chill R&B track, then a ballad, then another rap track.
265* NeonCity: The sets for the "Regular", "Kick It", and "Sticker" music videos.
266** And the style for their [[https://youtu.be/5_ML1fO3hjA 2 Baddies Highlight Medley]]!
267** Coincidentally, ''Neo City'' is another nickname for NCT, and is even mentioned in the lyrics of ''"Whiplash"''.
268*** ''Neo City'' is also the main title for NCT 127's concert tours.
269* NinetiesHair: Largely the case for their "Limitless" comeback.
270* NumerologicalMotif: NCT 127 is so named because it's based in Seoul, Korea, which has a longitude coordinate of 127. It signifies that even though this is their home base, they will eventually branch out and conquer the music industry all over the world.
271* PelvicThrust: The choreography at the beginning of "Favorite (Vampire)".
272* ProductPlacement: Coca-Cola in their "Taste The Feeling" MV. It is a commercial, [[JustifiedTrope after all]].
273** Porsche is the running theme in "2 Baddies".
274* RomanticVampireBoy: The concept for "Favorite (Vampire)".
275* SecretHandshake: Jaehyun and Winwin do this in the rough version of the "Limitless" MV. Also Mark and Jaehyun have one of their own.
276* SensoryOverload: The music video for "2 Baddies". Not only that it is an overall trippy music video that seems to take the viewer on an LSD experience, the almost 4-minute long song also contains the group's trademark noise music with group chanting and loud Hip-hop instrumentals.
277* SequelSong: "Kick It" and "Sticker" are this to "Cherry Bomb".
278** The three songs are all produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Dem Jointz, alongside SM Entertainment's writer and composer Yoo Young-jin.
279** These three tracks also happen to be the most popular and most successful in NCT 127's discography, that the members themselves consider it as their representative songs.
280** Inverted with "2 Baddies". Yes, it is a "noisy" song that contains the group's trademark chorus chants like "Kick It", but this is their first non-repackage title track since ''"Highway to Heaven"'' to not be produced by Dem Jointz and Yoo Young-jin.
281* ShoutOut: "Cherry Bomb" and "Kick It" have a handful of shout-outs to Hollywood.
282** "Cherry Bomb" makes a reference to ''Film/KingsmanTheSecretService''.
283** "Kick It", being a song about Creator/BruceLee himself, is composed of chants of the actor's name in the chorus. Taeyong's verse also references Bruce Lee's film ''Film/EnterTheDragon'', while Mark's verse references actor Creator/SamuelLJackson.
284* SurprisinglyGentleSong: "Touch" is this in contrast with most of their title tracks.
285* TakeThatAudience: "Lemonade" is clearly about their haters who consume their media only to leave negative comments. Also a case of DissTrack and OdeToApathy.
286** The fact that Jaehyun has the most memorable lines in the song is even more iconic, considering how just the year before, he was receiving tons of hate on social media [[https://www.koreaboo.com/news/dispatch-reveals-btss-jungkook-astros-cha-eunwoo-ncts-jaehyun-seventeens-mingyu-in-itaewon-social-distancing-period/ for a very specific reason...]]
287* TextlessAlbumCover: ''NCT 127'' is just red-white-black camo. ''Cherry Bomb'' is just some graphics of, well, [[CaptainObvious a cherry exploding like a nuclear bomb]].
288* TitleByNumber: 127
289* TitleOnlyChorus: "Firetruck"'s chorus is just... ''Firetruck'' in both English and Korean translations.
290* TitleTrack: Most of their albums are titled after the lead single.
291* WordSaladPhilosophy: Apparently, "Ay-Yo" is about... a sustainable environment?
292--> (In Korean) ''The storm of paradigm comes crashing (Ha!)''
293--> ''In the warning (Yeah!)''
294--> ''[[WordSaladLyrics A sudden twist for immortal beings]]''
295--> ''It's up to you, what you wanna do?''
296[[/folder]]
297
298[[folder:NCT DREAM]]
299* AcronymAndAbbreviationOverload: Their third studio album is titled ''ISTJ'', which, you guessed it, refers to the MBTI personality.
300* AnthropomorphicFood: The album cover for ''Hot Sauce''.
301* BoyBand: "Broken Memories" is reminiscent of early 2010s boy band music, particularly One Direction's.
302* CoolBoard: "Chewing Gum" has hoverboards incorporated into the choreography.
303* DesignStudentsOrgasm: The music videos for "Chewing Gum", "Hot Sauce", "Hello Future", and "Glitch Mode".
304* FirstLove: "My First and Last" is about the feelings of falling in love for the first time.
305* HotTeacher: In the music video for "My First and Last", all of the boys have a crush on their teacher and try to impress her. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, she is already married and has a child.]]
306* RebelliousSpirit: NCT Dream's "Go" is about rebelling against the world. The music video also portrays the members as teenage rebels, as they run through the city throughout the night and do reckless things.
307* ScoobyStack: The music video and the album cover for "My First and Last" has NCT Dream peeking out from behind a wall.
308[[/folder]]
309
310[[folder:NCT DOJAEJUNG]]
311* TheCameo: All NCT DOJAEJUNG members make a cameo in each member's music film.
312** Doyoung and Jungwoo appear as assistant chefs in Jaehyun's ''Passion''.
313** Jaehyun and Jungwoo have minor roles in Doyoung's ''Commitment''.
314** [[AvertedTrope Averted]] in Jungwoo's ''Intimacy''. Jaehyun and Doyoung play bigger roles as Jungwoo's best friends and had significant screentime.
315* DifferingPrioritiesBreakup: In Jaehyun's music film ''Passion'', his girlfriend breaks up with him to pursue her dreams overseas.
316* DoubleMeaningTitle: ''Passion'' refers to the romantic desire that a couple feels for each other; it could also be about one's dream and enthusiasm for something. The music film is exactly both of these; it's a romantic story with a BittersweetEnding after Jaehyun's girlfriend leaves him for her "passion".
317* HighSchool: Jungwoo's music film ''Intimacy'' is set in high school.
318* PowerTrio: The sub-unit consists of three members.
319* ShortFilm: As part of NCT DOJAEJUNG's promotions for their debut extended play ''Perfume'' (2023), they released three music films for each member, titled: ''Passion'', ''Commitment'', and ''Intimacy''.
