They are set to return with their third mini-album early next month.
Last Tuesday, August 12, NCT Wish, the sub-unit of Korean pop group NCT, released their summer single entitled ‘Surf’ alongside its music video.
It is touted as a pre-album track, as it was dropped weeks ahead of the team’s official comeback with their third mini-album, ‘Color,’ on September 1, 2025.
In the over there-minute long music video shot in Bali, Indonesia, fans and viewers are treated to the quirky side of the members, who come together for a beach vacation and attempt to surf—but none of them knows how to do that.
As of writing, ‘Surf’ has since been viewed more than 1.6 million times on video-sharing platform YouTube.
Wish was first introduced by their company SM Entertainment in 2023 as the latest permanent NCT sub-unit, joining 127, DREAM, and the China-based WayV.
The sextet eventually debuted with the song ‘Wish’ in February 2024, followed by their Japanese singles like ‘Songbird’ and ‘Wishful Winter.’
Two days after their first Philippine show last April 2025, they dropped their second extended play titled ‘poppop’ thaf carried six tracks, including the namesake lead single.
