The group’s growing popularity is further demonstrated by their international chart performance, as it occupied the No. 1 spot on the iTunes charts of over 20 countries at one point, including Greece, Poland, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore.

The new album consists of 11 tracks including both the Korean and English versions of the lead track, with each track speaking directly to the group’s effort to “communicate through dreams and become one through music.”

NCT 127 is set to perform “Regular” on SBS’ flagship music show “Inkigayo” on Sunday.
