NCT is undergoing sudden and major changes with members Mark Lee and Ten leaving SM Entertainment and Taeil's removal in 2024, leaving fans wondering: "What will happen next?" We break down the group's new dynamics and explain whether the "7-Member Curse " is real! NCT waves to fans during D Awards in Seoul on February 11, 2026 (NEWS1) What’s Happening With NCT Now? Lineup shifts: With Mark and Ten leaving SM Entertainment, NCT 127 will continue as a seven-member group with Johnny, Taeyong, Yuta, Doyoung , Jaehyun , Jungwoo, and Haechan. NCT Dream will move forward as a six-member group with Renjun, Jeno , Haechan, Jaemin , Chenle, and Jisung. NCT "10-Anniversary— NCT 2026" new logo (SM Entertainment) SM Entertainment has moved forward with NCT's "10th Anniversary— NCT 2026" project, featuring a new logo and roadmap for 2026. The change is "normal" for NCT, since it uses subunits for various projects, but with members leaving, it still has more of an emotional impact on NCTzen (the official fandom of NCT). What Is The "7-Member Curse"? NMIXX is left with six members after the departure of Jinni (OSEN) The "7-member curse" is often attributed to K-pop groups that debuted with seven members, but eventually experienced a member departure, often becoming a six-member group. Notable examples of this are NMIXX , Weeekly , PURPLE KISS , and MONSTA X . NMIXX originally debuted with seven members until Jinni's departure in 2022. Weeekly also debuted with seven members until the departure of Jiyoon in 2022. PURPLE KISS also had Jieun leave in 2022 to become a six-member group. MONSTA X debuted with seven members but was left with six members after Wonho's departure. Is The "7-Member Curse" Real? Although it seems more of a coincidence, many groups often go through lineup changes (not just groups with 7-members). The Dojeon team believes that fans often "over dramatize" these cases, which causes these stories to "blow up" more than they actually are portrayed. Many other factors cause these lineup changes, including military service , contract terminations , and personal career shifts (going solo). What's Next For NCT? NCT JNJM (SM Entertainment) NCT is unlikely to disband in the near future and will continue to push forward with its flexibility and its subgroups, such as NCT JNJM (Jeno and Jaemin). This is why we think that NCT, as a group, is likely to keep evolving rather than "fall apart". Final Thoughts Becoming a K-pop idol is hard enough. Fans become emotionally attached to their biases and feel that if one member leaves, the whole group's image may completely change. Although this is rarely the case, we feel it depends on which member leaves may have a bigger impact on the group's image and direction. So what do you think about the "7-member curse"? Do you think it is real or just a pure coincidence? Let us know in the comments below! #NCT #NCTJNJM #NCTWISH #NCT127 #NMIXX #PURPLEKISS #NCTDream #7membercurse

Karina, Wonyoung, and Byeon Woo-seok together in a Christmas Project (Credits:  Dolphin Kidnappers) The internet does not calm down when K-pop idols and K-drama actors step into unexpected roles, and this time, it is Christmas-themed chaos in the best way possible. Karina from aespa , Jang Wonyoung from IVE , and actor Byeon Woo-seok have suddenly taken over social media with visuals no one saw coming. Karina and Wonyoung appearing as nuns, while Byeon Woo-seok shows up as a priest, instantly sparked curiosity and confusion among fans. Many assumed it was a short drama, some thought it was a web series, while others guessed a fashion campaign. The mystery deepened when character-based Instagram accounts started appearing, making everything feel even more cinematic. So, what exactly is this viral project, and why is everyone talking about it? What Is This Viral Christmas Project Actually About The viral images and clips are from a Christmas music project titled “The Christmas Song Part 1” , released by Dolphin Kidnappers. It is not a drama series, but a story-driven music video with strong narrative elements, which explains why fans initially mistook it for a short drama. The music video features Karina from aespa, Jang Wonyoung from IVE, Byeon Woo-seok, Park Hee-soon , and Moon So-ri . Byeon Woo-seok also lends his voice to the song, adding another layer to the project. Unlike typical holiday releases, this project leans heavily into symbolism, atmosphere, and character development, which is why it feels more like a mini-film than a standard music video. Jang Wonyoung plays Sister Gabriella (Credits:  Dolphin Kidnappers) Karina and Wonyoung’s Nun Look That Shocked Fans Karina’s nuns instantly became the most talked-about visual from the project. Dressed in a simple yet striking habit, her cold yet calm expression contrasted sharply with her usual idol image. Fans praised how effortlessly she embodied the role, calling it both elegant and haunting. Wonyoung’s appearance as a nun added another layer of intrigue. Known for her glamorous and fairy-like visuals, seeing her in a restrained, solemn look caught everyone off guard. The contrast worked beautifully, amplifying the storytelling aspect of the video. Within hours of release, screenshots of both idols began circulating across Instagram, X, and TikTok, with fans dissecting every frame. Byeon Woo-seok as Father Vincenzio Steals Attention Byeon Woo-seok appears as a priest named Father Vincenzio , and his role quickly became a major talking point. Dressed in priest robes and delivering emotional expressions, his presence grounded the video and gave it a cinematic seriousness. What made fans even more excited was the fact that he also sings in the project. This dual role as both actor and vocalist surprised many and added depth to the  overall performance. His calm demeanor, expressive eyes, and subtle acting choices led many viewers to joke that this felt like a teaser for a full-length drama that does not yet exist. Karina plays Sister Raphaela (Credits:  Dolphin Kidnappers) The Character Instagram Accounts That Made This Feel Like a Real Short Drama What truly pushed this Christmas project into viral territory was the creation of separate Instagram accounts for each character, making the entire concept feel like an unfolding short drama rather than a one-time music release. From the image and account details, the characters are clearly defined: Karina plays Sister Raphaela, with the Instagram account named raphaela_diary Jang Wonyoung plays Sister Gabriella, using the Instagram handle nun_gabriella Byeon Woo-seok plays Father Vincenzio, appearing through the account vincentio1031 Each account stays completely in character. The posts are calm, symbolic, and emotionally restrained, often featuring church settings, children, handwritten notes, and reflective captions. Biblical verses and soft imagery are used to deepen the sense of realism and faith-based storytelling. Why This Project Is Trending So Hard Right Now There are several reasons this Christmas project exploded online: First, the casting is unexpected. Seeing top idols like Karina and Wonyoung paired with a popular actor like Byeon Woo-seok in such unconventional roles instantly grabs attention. Second, the religious imagery and serious tone stand out in a season usually filled with cheerful and playful holiday content. Third, the storytelling approach makes viewers curious. It feels unfinished in a deliberate way, which fuels theories about possible future parts. This combination of visuals, mystery, and star power turned a simple Christmas song into one of the most talked-about releases of the season. Karina, Wonyoung, and Byeon Woo-seok together in a Christmas Project (Credits:  Dolphin Kidnappers) Is There More to Come After Part 1? Since the song is titled “The Christmas Song Part 1", many fans believe there could be a continuation. Whether that means another music video, an extended storyline, or just a thematic sequel remains unknown. Given the overwhelming response and viral success, it would not be surprising if the creators expand the concept further. For now, the speculation itself is keeping the project alive across social platforms. Whether or not this project continues, it has already left a strong impression and dominated online conversations throughout the holiday season. Do you think this should stay a one-time music project, or would you like to see it expanded into a short drama or series?
