NCT 127 Confirms New Repackage for Third Album This October
Not long after the release of their third full album Sticker, rising K-Pop boy band NCT 127 is coming back with a repackage of Favorite this October. Their previous title track, “Sticker,” was the first domestic comeback for the group in over a year, and they don’t plan on losing any steam just yet. With this new reissue, the band is adding 3 additional songs to the existing 14: title track “Favorite,” “Love On The Floor,” and “Pilot.”
