Background

edit

NCT Dream planned to hold concerts at the Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul from July 29 to 31, but cancelled them after members Mark and Renjun tested positive for COVID-19.[2] The event was rescheduled on September 8 and 9 at the Jamsil Olympic Stadium,[3] nearly four times larger in capacity than the original venue,[4] and served as the opening performance to their second tour, The Dream Show 2: In A Dream.[2] It marked the group's first concert featuring all seven members since their debut in 2016.[4] The second show was broadcast on the platform Beyond Live.[2] The tour will continue in Japan with five concerts in Nagoya, Yokohama and Fukuoka.[5] The concert held in Yokohama on November 27 was broadcast on Beyond Live.[6]

On February 15, 2023, SM Entertainment announced new dates, with additional legs in the United States, Latin America,[7] Europe, and Asia from March to May 2023. It will be NCT Dream's first tour outside Asia.[8] They ended their tour in Mexico after visiting 26 cities.[9]

Reception

edit

Writing for NME, Lucy Ford gave four out of five stars for the London show, saying that "This isn't the NCT Dream we were first introduced to, this is NCT Dream grown up and ready to be known as such.".[10]
