Members cried during the encore concert... Spread of fandom ‘anxiety’

Rumors of internal conflict between NCT Dream and SM Entertainment are rapidly spreading online. The rumor began in earnest when an anonymous post went viral shortly after the group's encore concert on March 29.

At this day's performance, many members, including Mark, Haechan, and Renjun, were seen shedding tears on stage. Concerns were already being raised among fans about the emotional atmosphere of the final performance.

Contents of anonymous post claims

The post, published through an anonymous question platform, claims an internal conflict between NCT Dream and SM Entertainment. According to the post, SM Entertainment tried to 'neglect and hide' the group, and Mark argued with the company on behalf of the members.

The post also claimed that Mark tried to set up his own company and move with the members, but SM Entertainment refused. It also included information that Mark's older brother was helping to establish the company. The author expressed concern, saying, “Articles will start coming out next week,” and “I think Mark will face criticism.”

Fandom reactions were mixed… “Be cautious about unverified information”

Reactions within the fandom to this claim are mixed. Some fans are expressing anxiety based on the fact that Mark's expression was not good at the recent concert and several members showed tears. There was also an eyewitness report that most of the members except Jeno and Jaemin cried.

On the other hand, other fans are urging caution, saying the information is unverified from an anonymous source. To date, neither SM Entertainment nor NCT Dream have released an official statement regarding the rumor.

Pay attention in the future

In the industry, regardless of the truth of the rumor, interest in NCT Dream's contract status and future direction of activities is increasing. The message of support for '7Dream' is spreading among the fandom, and support for the members continues.
