NCT DREAM Proves to Be the Ultimate Performers, Concludes Third World Tour


Boy group NCT DREAM wrapped up their third world tour in spectacular fashion, ending with an encore concert at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul, attended by 60,000 fans. The "2024 NCT DREAM WORLD TOUR <THE DREAM SHOW 3: DREAMSCAPE> FINALE in SEOUL" was held from November 29 to December 1, with all three performances selling out, further cementing NCT DREAM's immense popularity and influence.


The encore concert held special significance as it marked the finale of a global journey that began at Gocheok Dome in May. The tour spanned 37 performances across 25 cities in Asia, the Americas, and Europe, culminating in this grand finale in Seoul. NCT DREAM showcased their prowess with powerful performances of hits like "Smoothie," "ISTJ," "Broken Melodies," and "Hello Future." They also delivered harmonious renditions of songs like "Footsteps," "Polaris," and "Breath," and created interactive moments with tracks such as "Candy," "Dream Run," and "Fireflies." The performances reaffirmed their title as the "ultimate performers," leaving audiences captivated throughout.


The setlist also included tracks from their recently released fourth full-length album, such as the title track "When I'm With You," along with "No Escape," "Dream of Flying," and "Rains in Heaven." Additionally, the group thrilled fans with special performances of debut song "Chewing Gum"—complete with hoverboards—and fan-favorite tracks like "Beatbox" and "Trigger the Fever."


The concert’s stage production was a significant upgrade, featuring two massive LED screens (34m x 15m), a radial extended stage, and a hot-air balloon-inspired up-and-down stage designed to bring members closer to fans on the upper levels. The set included a giant rainbow structure (8.8m x 7.5m), paired with dazzling lighting, lasers, and the vibrant fan light displays that illuminated the Gocheok Dome. Together, these elements delivered a high-quality, visually stunning performance befitting a world-class group.
