NCT DREAM Mark 10 Years With ‘DREAM AFTER DREAM’ — and ‘Boogie Woogie’ Is Pure Disco-Funk Joy
Ten years in, NCT DREAM are still dreaming — and this time, they’re dancing through it.
NCT DREAM have released their sixth studio album, ‘DREAM AFTER DREAM’, today, November 9, 2026, at 6 PM KST (4 AM EST) via SM Entertainment. The 10-track album marks the group’s 10th anniversary, and it’s a celebration in every sense: big, bright, and built for the dance floor.
Leading the album is title track ‘Boogie Woogie,’ an up-tempo disco-funk dance song that is pure joy from the first beat. Member Jaemin co-wrote the lyrics, which are about gratitude for a decade together — and the ordinary days made special by sharing them. It’s NCT DREAM at their most feel-good, and honestly? We needed this.

This is also a milestone album for another reason: it’s NCT DREAM’s first album as a six-member group — Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, and Jisung — after Mark Lee’s exclusive contract with SM ended and he left the team in April 2026. A new chapter, same dream.
Alongside ‘Boogie Woogie,’ the album includes “The Sun,” “Skydive,” “Pressure,” “Cool for Me,” and “This Is Your World,” among its 10 tracks. The group will perform the title track live at a showcase on November 12 — and yes, the ‘Boogie Woogie’ music video is out now, so go watch it immediately.
The members said it best themselves. Chenle shared: “I am happy that we can share good songs as we celebrate our 10th anniversary.” Haechan added: “wherever our music is, that is NCT DREAM.” And Jeno summed up the decade perfectly: “Every moment over the past 10 years feels like a dream.”
NCT DREAM debuted in 2016 and have since become one of K-pop’s most beloved acts, known for hits including ‘Chewing Gum,’ ‘Hot Sauce,’ ‘Candy,’ ‘ISTJ,’ and ‘BTTF.’ Ten years later, ‘DREAM AFTER DREAM’ proves the dream isn’t over — it’s just getting groovier.
Happy 10th anniversary, NCT DREAM. Here’s to the next dream — and the one after that.
