SM Entertainment has officially announced that NCT Wish, the newest subunit of NCT, will embark on an extensive tour across Asia, starting in Japan next month. The tour, titled "LOG In," will see the six-member group perform in six major cities across Japan, with each city hosting two concerts. The Japanese leg of the tour will run from November 3 to December 13, covering Ishikawa, Kyoto, Kanagawa, Hyogo, Fukuoka, and Aichi.
This tour is particularly significant as it marks NCT Wish’s first large-scale tour since their debut, and expectations are high. With their fresh and youthful image, the subunit is gaining momentum in the K-pop scene, and this tour will serve as an opportunity to solidify their presence both in Japan and the broader Asian market.
SM Entertainment further revealed that NCT Wish will expand their tour to other regions in Asia early next year, with additional concert dates and cities to be announced soon. Fans in other parts of Asia can expect exciting news in the coming months as the group continues to grow their international fanbase.
NCT Wish’s rapid rise in popularity is evident from their recent achievements. Last week, the group claimed their first-ever number-one spot on a television music chart with their title track "Steady," the lead song from their debut EP. The seven-track mini-album sold over 790,000 copies in its first week, following an impressive 800,000 pre-orders. This achievement sets a new first-week sales record for K-pop acts that debuted in 2023, further underscoring NCT Wish's growing influence.
The title track "Steady" has not only resonated with fans in Korea but has also gained traction globally, with international listeners praising the group's vocal talents and choreography. The upcoming tour will allow fans to witness these talents firsthand and see how NCT Wish brings their youthful energy to the stage.
NCT Wish’s success is part of the larger NCT phenomenon, with each subunit contributing to the group's overall diversity in sound and performance. With "LOG In" marking their first foray into major touring, NCT Wish is poised to further establish themselves as key player in the global K-pop landscape.
Fans eagerly await the next phase of NCT Wish’s tour, with many predicting that the group's energy and stage presence will only continue to grow. As they prepare to take their music beyond Japan, NCT Wish seems set to make a lasting impact on the international music scene.
