From “Go Back To The Future” to “Beat It Up”
NCT DREAM’s previous album “Go Back To The Future” released in July 2025 became their seventh million-selling album. The nine-track LP featured double title tracks “BTTF” (Back to the Future) and “Chiller,” both showcasing high-energy choreography and retro-futuristic vibes inspired by the iconic 1980s film series.
The album topped Oricon’s Daily Album Ranking and dominated music charts at home and abroad, proving NCT DREAM’s global influence continues to expand. Now, “Beat It Up” aims to build on that momentum with a concept that transitions from looking back to racing forward.
