Who is STICKER? NCT 127's video teaser makes NCTzens go crazy with 'new meaning' of duality

NCTzens have been waiting for a group comeback from the members of NCT for quite some time now. The 23-member group came together for a two-part studio album titled  ‘NCT Resonance’ that was released in October and November of 2020. Other projects from NCT’s official sub-units like NCT Dream’s ‘Hot Sauce’ released in May 2021 and NCT 127 released ‘Neo Zone’ in March of 2020 while their Chinese sub-unit WayV released ‘Awaken the World’ in June, 2020.

Other than this, a few of NCT’s members had duo or solo releases but nothing keeps the members of NCT as engaged as a full-length studio album. This is probably what is in the works with NCT 127 now as the group’s Instagram profile was flooded with updates. The display icon changed into a University logo with NCIT 127 which means Neo Culture Institute of Technology. They also added NCDC to their bio which means NCIT Coding Crew. This could quite possibly be the concept for their next studio album.
