Synopsis
Rolling Stone said that the concert featured "the members tear[ing] through plenty of hard-hitting group choreography" and singing "sensitive ballads [...] sitting down", which they described as a "a formula reminiscent of Nineties American boy bands".[1] It featured several video montages used as transitions between different segments of the shows. NCT 127 opened the concert with a dance performance to a remix of "Cherry Bomb". Other songs that featured dance performances included "Come Back", "Limitless", "Chain", "Fly Away With Me", "Wake Up", "Heartbreaker", "Regular", "Fire Truck", "Simon Says", "Good Thing", "Touch", "Heartbreaker", and "Replay (PM 01:27)". NCT 127 sang together a mashup of "City 127", "Angel", and "Sun & Moon", while different sets of members performed "Timeless" (Taeil, Doyoung, and Jaehyun), "No Longer" (Taeil, Doyoung, Jaehyun, Jungwoo, Haechan), "Baby Don't Like It" (Taeyong, Taeil, Doyoung, and Mark), and "Mad City" (Taeyong, Jaehyun, and Mark). The group returned for an encore, during which they sang "Welcome To My Playground", "Summer 127", and "0 Mile".[2][3]
