NCT DREAM is preparing to return with DREAM AFTER DREAM, announcing a November 9 release date through a new teaser unveiled at midnight KST on October 16.
The project is scheduled to arrive at 6 p.m. KST and follows the group’s November 2025 mini album Beat It Up, marking nearly a year between releases.
The initial teaser introduces the new title with a simple visual built around a large letter D against a grass-green backdrop. Korean entertainment coverage identifies DREAM AFTER DREAM as NCT DREAM’s sixth full-length album.
The comeback also arrives during the group’s tenth-anniversary year, adding another chapter to its activities following the members’ contract renewals with SM Entertainment earlier in 2026.
Further rollout details, including the tracklist and title song, have yet to be announced.
