NCT rapper Taeyong, best known for being the leader of its NCT 127 sub-group, is releasing his first solo concert film, titled Taeyong: TY Track in Cinemas.
Today (September 5), distributors Trafalgar Releasing and CJ 4DPlex announced details for NCT member Taeyong’s upcoming concert film, Taeyong: TY Track in Cinemas. The film will feature footage from the K-pop idol’s Olympic Hall concert in Seoul earlier this year, alongside exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, as well as a deep dive into his music and career.
The movie is slated to hit theatres worldwide on October 16 and 19 worldwide. Additional screening dates may vary. Tickets will go on sale on Thursday, September 12 at 6am PT via its official launch website. Fans will also be able to view it in ScreenX, 4DX, and Ultra 4DX where available.
“We’re thrilled to showcase [Taeyong’s] remarkable performance for NCTzens through this concert film. Unlike previous NCT releases, this movie highlights the essence of his decade-long artistic journey under the name TY TRACK,” said CJ 4DPLEX Chief Content Officer Jun Bang.
Trafalgar Releasing and CJ 4DPlex previously released two other NCT-related projects over the last two years, namely NCT DREAM The Movie In A DREAM and NCT NATION: To The World In Cinemas.
Taeyong is currently serving in the South Korean navy as part of his mandatory military service. The rapper enlisted earlier this April, and is due for discharge sometime in late 2025.
Prior to his enlistment, Taeyong made a solo comeback with his sophomore mini-album ‘Tap’. In a four-star review of the record, NME’s Carmen Chin wrote that Taeyong is able to “tap into his vulnerabilities and anxieties the same way he does his edginess and, more importantly, hit listeners where they feel it”.
In other K-pop news, the label of rookie girl group MADEIN has received significant backlash for the heavy use of AI-generated scenes in the K-pop act’s music video for ‘Uno’. Their agency’s CEO has since issued an apology on Instagram, adding that they will release an edit of the video without AI-generated VFX in “a few days”.
