NCT 127 have fans swooning at Thunder Dome
Tickets for a “fan meeting” and concert with nine-member South Korean boy band NCT 127 sold out within three minutes of going on sale, ensuring that the September 9 event at the Thunder Dome was a screaming success.
Moon Tae-Il, Seo “Johnny” Youngho, Lee Taeyong, Kim Dongyoung, Jung “Jaehyun” Yoonoh, Lee “Mark” Minhyung, Lee “Haechan” Donghyuck, Nakamoto Yuta and Dong Si “WinWin” Cheng met the press before the show.
Then it was the fans’ turn to roar when the lads took the stage and sang “Limitless”, the title track from their second mini-album.
A round of friendly hellos followed, and then the band answered fans’ questions submitted to the SM True Facebook page.
Doyoung surprised everyone with a brief rendition of Stamp Apiwat’s hit “Man Pen Kwam Rak” – sung in Thai, to the thrill of the mostly female audience.
The event featured several games, such as “It’s Him!” and “Let’s Study 127”, which involved a quiz for the boys about Thailand.
The band performed “Angel” as fans held up a banner reading “We’ll be your angels”; “Cherry Bomb”, with its catchy hook “I’m the biggest hit, I’m the biggest hit on this stage”; and the very danceable “0 Mile”.
The crowd had the last word, holding up more signs, including one in Korean that translated as “Very close to our hearts”.
