Here’s the tea: NCT DREAM is a talented group made up adorable sweethearts that melt our hearts and make them go boom, boom, boom.

As NCT DREAM TOUR “THE DREAM SHOW” comes near, with only a week before it happens at the New Frontier Theater on February 29, we list down seven — of the many things — we love about NCT’s third sub-unit in this feature article.

#1 The Members

NCT DREAM is composed of incredibly amazing individuals — Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, and Jisung plus former member Mark — who also have the best personalities. We love how they complement one another and bring out the best in each other.

Although they have displayed their seeming limitless capabilities in the past four years, the boys are far from done as they continue to show their improved skills and their willingness to explore more and go out of their comfort zones.

#2 The Music

We love how their music has grown since their debut in 2016 with “Chewing Gum” — that fresh adorable sound that got us LSS — to their most recent release “Boom” which is giving us all the tita feels as we beam with pride on the glow up that is NCT DREAM.

They have successfully switched up their music, not locking themselves in one genre. Moreover, they have also expanded their reach through collaborations with other artists including HRVY and Prettymuch. And NCT DREAM is full of promise that we are 100 percent sure that there is so much more to tap from these incredibly talented boys who also work hard to improve their crafts.

#3 The Charms, The Charisma, and The Talents

When you got Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, and Jisung in one team, expect that the group will overflow with charms, charisma, and talents. They have astounded us with their vocals, raps, and dancing through their every release, have made us go soft with their charms, and made us speechless on how they shed their cuteness and fire up the stage with their charisma.

NCT DREAM is full of surprises, owing to the fact that each member has something to offer on the table and they are willing to give more. Remember Jeno’s effort to learn acrobatics for NCTzens? Or how Jisung impressed everyone during his Dancing High stint? Or how can we forget the iconic hoverboards they used during their “Chewing Gum” era?

#4 The Concepts

Because we have already talked about hoverboards, we jump right into the different concepts they did in the past four years. The “Chewing Gum” era gave us schoolboy Dreamies, blowing large bubbles with cheeky grins that transport us back to our school days where nothing matters but school, friends, and that puppy love. This adorable concept was reignited in “My First and Last” which reminded us of our first love. The first two eras were appropriate and highlighted the natural charms of the boys — their youth and childlikeness.

Because NCT DREAM started off cute and young, the next concepts, where they showed off — little by little — a more mature feel, did not feel off because we saw the transition happen. “We Young” was upbeat, bright, colorful, and summery. It was still cute, but did not give the same childlike-feel “Chewing Gum” and “My First and Last” gave, owing probably to the moves and expressions of the boys that were cooler than cheeky.

And now we talk about “Go”, a track from the NCT 2018 Empathy, that was a big leap from the fun beats we got with the first three title tracks. NCT DREAM gave us angsty teenagers ready to take over. Then, they treated us to another bop, “We Go Up”, Mark’s final release as a member of NCT DREAM. They have reiterated their cool teen energy in this era which they intensified in “Boom”, their first era without Mark.

#5 The Performances

We need no words for this one because we are going to let these NCT DREAM videos speak for it.

#6 The Visuals

They attacked us with their cuteness during their debut era and now, Dreamies are hitting us hard right in the feels with their superb visuals.

We don’t know what words will best describe the beauty that are Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, and Jisung so make sure to check their social media channels and marvel with us on the top-class looks the boys have been serving.

#7 The Bond

We are knocking on SM Entertainment’s door to please disregard the initial plan of rotational concept and just let our Dreamies stay together, please?

Through the years, NCT DREAM (and all NCT members, to be honest) has showed us the close bond they have developed that warms our hearts and melts us. Remember that Idol Room episode where the members revealed that Chenle gives them gifts? Or that time Renjun has had enough of the sasaeng who keeps calling Jeno?

There more sweet moments from the boys and we can’t wait to see more of their closeness and adorable relationship on February 29 at the New Frontier Theater.

So, NCTzens, ready yourselves because your hearts will surely go boom, boom, boom!
