NCT 127’s Doyoung Fought A Lonely Battle To Secure One Song On The Tour Setlist
Recently, on April 9, NCT 127 released the behind-the-scenes video for their NEO CITY: THE MOMENTUM concert.
The video detailed the concert’s planning process, including the set list, concert sequence, and overall production.
As this was the first time to hold a tour with just six members, they felt that they should create a performance that fans would remember for a long time.
🐰오래 좋아하면 멋있는 것 그 이상의 관계가 시작이 된단 말이죠 이 사람들과 보낸 시간과 이 사람들과 나눴던 여러 장면들에 대한 기억인데, 우리가 지금껏 안 해왔던 서사를 담는다거나 팬들이 느끼기에 '오래오래 기억해야지'라는 포인트가 있어야 될 것 같은 느낌?

If you like someone for a long time, it becomes more than just a relationship. These are all memories of the time spent with these people and the many moments we shared. I feel like there should be more than something we’ve done before or something that they can remember for a long time.
— Doyoung
With this, Doyoung suggested their B-side track “Far” for to add to the setlist. However, this was met with much criticism from the other members who felt that this was one of their lesser known songs.
훨씬 외로운 싸움을 한 Far도영 아
🐻진짜 하고 싶은거야?
🐶죽어도 안행!
🐯싫고 안좋고를 떠나서 너무 안유명하지 않아?
🐰이거 진짜 웅장함이 미쳤어!
🐻확실한 건 조회수 꼴등이긴 해
🐰그럼 여기서 빼야 될 게 몇갠데 지그음-! 야 우리 노래 중에 유명한 게 몇개나 있다고 다 .. 죄다 (생략) pic.twitter.com/V07jlD7ckQ— 취향의 도영 (@do0liking) April 9, 2025
Haechan: Do you really want to do this?
Jungwoo: I won’t do it even if I die!
Mark: Regardless of liking it or not, isn’t the song really not popular?
Doyoung: But the grandeur of this song is insane!
Haechan: One thing for certain is that this song has the least amount of views.
Doyoung: Then do you know how many songs we have to take out then?! We don’t have many songs that are popular…
It was through this video that fans were able to see what a lonely battle Doyoung had to fight in order to have this song included in the tour.
🐻교체하지 말고 그냥 빼자 ~..
🐶와 이렇게 오디오가 안 비는 적 처음이야
🐻아 왜 이럴까 Far 버리면 된다니까 ㅋㅋㅋ
🐰너 .. 너 ..! 너 이렇게 나오면 내가 투어 가서 너랑 맥주 안 마실고야 어? (새침)아 도영이 ㄴㅁ귀여워 https://t.co/ZAmfhaxR3N pic.twitter.com/J4doR0vJRh

Haechan: Let’s not switch it out and just take it off the list.
Jungwoo: This is the first time the audio is this full…
Haechan: Come on, guys, we just need to get rid of ‘Far’.
Doyoung: If you keep going like this I’m not going to drink beer with you during the tour!
But as fans know, this song ended up being the most remembered song from the tour!

The personal color of the group is ‘revolution’.
Fans also agreed that the production scale for the song was unreal and could be enjoyed even from the nosebleed seats.
Far 도영 3단 고음 4층 꼭대기뷰 미쳤네

Hearing Doyoung’s three-octave high note from the fourth floor is crazy.
Guess we all need to thank Doyoung for pushing through with his ideas!
On the other hand, there is one song that Doyoung cannot stand!
