NCT DREAM has shifted to a six-member lineup following Mark’s departure from SM Entertainment.

On April 8, Mark concluded his exclusive contract with SM Entertainment and withdrew from both NCT 127 and NCT DREAM.

Subsequently, the Japanese fan club NCTzen DREAM-JAPAN updated its official banner to feature Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, and Jisung, reflecting the group’s current configuration.

Earlier, SM Entertainment stated that after discussions regarding Mark’s future, both sides agreed to end his contract as of April 8. The agency confirmed that NCT 127 will continue as a seven-member group, while NCT DREAM will proceed with six members.

Mark debuted with NCT in 2016 and had been active across multiple units, including NCT 127 and NCT DREAM.
