NCT127 is already BACK AGAIN as they released just yesterday a teaser for their new song “Chain”, just one of the five songs in their new Mini-Japanese Album that they will be releasing soon. This will be their very first Japanese album since their debut in 2016 and all their NCTzens (their fandom name, “NCT” sounding like N-City, and when you add the ‘zen’ to it, it meaning that all fans of NCT are citizens of their N-City!) wait excitedly to see the hard work NCT127 put in for them. The five tracks in their Chain Mini-Japanese Album are called “Chain”, “Limitless”, “Dreaming”, “Comeback”, and “100”! NCT127’s album is dropping on May 23rd, that day being the official debut day of their band in Japan after last year in 2017 when they had done a pre-debut by performing the Japanese version of “Limitless”. In Japan during their Spring Showcase, they will perform in Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, and Fukuoka! You can keep track of their recent activities, concert dates, and tickets on their Twitter account called @NCTsmtown and @NCTsmtown_127. Please support them!!!

On April 10th, one of the subunits from EXO called CBX, EXO being one of the most famous band in South Korea, released a new ComeBack called “Blooming Day”!!! They did their live ComeBack performance two days later on MNet as always and slayed all their EXO-L fans, them also releasing their dance practice two days ago. “Blooming Day” is one out of the seven songs that are about to be released, it being the main vocal point of CBX’s 2nd Mini-Album titled “Blooming Days”. “Blooming Day” is about someone having a big crush towards another, wanting to be their boyfriend, the song taking on a softer, home-tune while still keeping in Baekhyun and Chen’s high vocals while Xuimin’s lower vocals balanced out the song perfectly, all the members of CBX making it beautiful. Their dance in “Blooming Day” used backup dancers to heighten the effect of the dance and they’ve performed at one stage after the other, spreading their growing [hehe] song to other EXO-Ls!! During one FanMeet, Sehun, a member that’s also in EXO, came to the FanMeet to congratulate his members on their success in a heartwarming and commidical way, asking his members to sign their album they made before getting rushed off, happy to congratulate his members.
