NCT Wish's 'Steady' Reflects on Memories, Success, and Keeping the Dream Alive

NCT Wish, the boy group of Sion, Yushi, Riku, Sakuya, Ryo, and Jaehee-an NCT sub-unit--has unveiled its debut mini album Steady-a return after the sextet released the Japanese single "Songbird," the Korean version of which serves as the opener for its same-titled single album.

As befitting its name, which combines the initials for Neo Culture Technology with the word "Wish," "NCT Wish" is about nurturing goals and visions and seeing them through to realization through love and music. That manifests itself more clearly in Steady, reflecting the group's renewed desire and neo-vibe to scale success and keep the dream alive.

The album offers seven songs, namely the lead-off track "Steady" with "3 Minutes," "Dunk Shot," "On & On," "Supercute," "Skate," and a Korean rendition of the group's pre-debut single, "Hands Up," released last October.
