NCT DREAM's "Hello Future"

"Hello Future" is NCT DREAM's first-ever repackaged album and was released back on June 28. The repackaged album contains 13 tracks, including tracks from their full-length album "Hot Sauce," as well as three new songs such as the title track "Hello Future," "Bungee," and "Life Is Still Going On."

Included in the album are the songs: "Hello Future," "Bungee", "Hot Sauce," "Diggity," "Life Is Still Going On," "Dive Into You," "My Youth," "Rocket," "Countdown (3,2,1)," "ANL," "Irreplaceable," "Be There For You," and "Rainbow."

The album's title song "Hello Future" features a trap rhythm and is a hip-hop dance song with a powerful synth sound. The lyrics contain the message of overcoming the scars of war and continuing to grow with a hopeful future, as well as the love and trust for one another will eventually shine and become stronger.

Another new song, "Bungee," is an electronic pop song that compares bungee jumping to that of jumping into the arms of another person. It also features an emotional R&B pop genre that also compares life to a music box that constantly revolves wanting to spend each day in a meaningful and precious way.

Meanwhile, NCT DREAM also took the No.1 spot as the most influential artist in Hanteo's mid-year list of top 50 artists who have contributed the most to K-Pop in the first half of the year.
