NCT WISH to return with mini album in October, about 6 months after 'Ode to Love'

NCT WISH will release a mini album in October, approximately six months after their previous release.

From 'Ode to Love' to October

Their first full-length album Ode to Love dropped in April. One million copies sold in a single day—their third consecutive million-seller—and the first week landed at 1,825,000 copies, surpassing the prior album COLOR. The title track Ode to Love hit No. 3 on Melon Top 100 and No. 1 on Hot 100.

In the months between, NCT WISH stayed active. The single boy meets girl arrived in June. July brought the Japanese single yo-i-don!, which debuted at No. 1 on the Oricon Daily Singles Chart and has since racked up 250,000 cumulative shipments, earning Platinum certification in the Gold Disc category.

Fan meetings before the comeback push

The group completed fan meetings across Seoul, Japan, Taiwan, and Hong Kong before heading back to Korea for comeback prep.

NCT WISH also wrapped their first concert tour, INTO THE WISH : Our WISH. The run kicked off at Incheon Inspire Arena and stretched across 33 performances worldwide, ending at Seoul KSPO Dome. The group debuted in February 2024 with members from Korea and Japan.
