Ever since the debut of NCT‘s newest and final subunit NCT WISH, fans have been supremely impressed by the group’s talents and charms. With the concept of fresh effervescence and bright energy, NCT WISH is stealing the hearts of fans all over the world. At the same time, global fans are curious about the various permutations and combinations that may happen later in the future with NCT WISH members forming subunits with NCT, like in NCT U.

So, here are some subunit combinations of the NCT members with the NCT WISH members that we think would break the internet!

Now that that’s out of the way, let’s get into our dream NCT X NCT WISH subunits!

1. JaeHee X TaeIl

JaeHee is one of the golden vocalists of the newest generation of K-Pop. Soon after NCT WISH’s debut, JaeHee went viral among K-Pop fans for his outstanding vocals, raising expectations for his future as NCT WISH grows into a representative 5th gen group. Who better to form a subunit with NCT WISH’s JaeHee than one of K-Pop’s finest vocalists of all time, Moon TaeIl? A master and his prodigy, TaeIl and JaeHee would make for a phenomenal duo, giving us the most iconic ballad of the times. Even thinking of it makes us want to manifest it. Are you with us NCTzen?

2. Ryo X DoYoung

Ryo and DoYoung already have the most adorable and endearing hyung-dongsaeng relationship. How incredible would it be if they could form a subunit together and give the people what they want, which is a top-tier collaboration of our dreams? DoYoung is a certified OST genius, and Ryo’s voice has a way of tugging at our heartstrings. So, perhaps a K-Drama OST would be the ideal collaboration between the two.

3. Sakuya X Jeno

This one’s for our deep-voiced duality kings! Jeno, with his eye smile to make us swoon left and right, and Sakuya, with his “Agungppang” cuteness, making us melt into a puddle, would complement each other way too well. Both idols have deep voices, a rich vocal/rap tone and are phenomenal performers on stage. A collaboration between the two would be peak NCT greatness.

4. Riku X Ten

Fashion icons unite! Ten Lee is one of the most innovative, groundbreaking, and visionary artists in K-Pop today. He is not afraid to break the rules, make his own, and reinvent himself in new ways. His artistic expression is just as versatile as he is and we’re seeing some of this likeness in NCT WISH’s Riku as well. Besides the fact that both members have a clear, unique vocal tone, their artistic codes would match well too, giving us an iconic collaboration.

5. Sion X Kun

NC WISH on X / NCT on X

Many NCTzens have noticed that Sion and Kun have very similar personalities. In addition to being leaders of their own groups (NCT WISH and WayV), both members have a grounding and calming energy. They take care of others like it’s second nature to them, and they are deeply thoughtful. At the same time, both members have the most ethereal and beautiful voices combined with otherworldly visuals. A Sion X Kun subunit would be a true delight.

6. Yushi X Yuta

If there’s one thing that unites Yushi and Yuta, it is the fact that there’s more to them than meets the eye. Both are multifaceted artists, talented in various fields, and extremely loveable. They are powerhouses of talent and potential, yet they keep evolving. Yuta commands respect and attention on stage like no other and Yushi is also already impressing fans with his stage presence. A Yushi X Yuta subunit would be prismatic.
