NCT LIFE: A Summary

(Updated August 2020)

NCT Life is NCT’s variety show that follows various members as they travel to different parts of Asia, showing how diverse and global a group they truly are.  Each season has a different location and theme, and some of them correspond to an NCT unit comeback.

The members who participate change each season, but there are certain ones who appear frequently.  Taeyong appears the most often, as he has been on 6 out of 8 seasons. Jaehyun, Doyoung, Yuta, and WinWin all tie for second place because they have each appeared on 5 out of 8 seasons.
