NCTzens, the wait is over. NCT 127 is back, and released new album Fact Check on Friday (Oct. 6).
The album arrived alongside a music video for the high-energy title track. The visual features members Taeil, Taeyong, Yuta, Jaehyun, Winwin, Mark and Haechan hitting intricate choreography in streetwear outfits, dancing in abandoned alleyways, shutting down bridges at night and taking to the top of skyscraper buildings with helicopter lights shining down on them.
“Check the facts, go check that,” they demand of their haters on the track’s chorus.
To celebrate the album’s release, NCT 127 will be holding a comeback showcase titled “A Night of Festival” on Oct. 6 at the Sampyo at Seoul Forest, where the K-pop stars will perform tracks from the new album.
Fact Check serves as the follow up to the K-pop group’s 2 Baddies, which arrived in September 2022. The project’s title track peaked at No. 147 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart. The album was later re-packaged into Ay-Yo in January; the expanded album included single “Ay-Yo” and features B-sides “DJ” and “Skyscraper” in addition to all 12 of the songs originally included on 2 Baddies. Ay-Yo: The 4th Album Repackage peaked at No. 13 on the Billboard 200 and spent a total of two weeks on the chart.
Listen to Fact Check, and watch the visual for the title track above.
