NCT 127 Cried While Rehearsing “Favorite (Vampire),” Here’s Why
NCT 127‘s latest title track “Favorite (Vampire)” stunned fans with its compelling, romantic storyline — and even the members themselves were overcome with emotion while rehearsing!
During a livestream held before the release of their repackage album Favorite, the NCT 127 members discussed their experiences preparing for it. While talking about how emotional the lyrics are, Johnny revealed that Mark almost cried while they were rehearsing the dance!
Mark didn’t deny it and explained that learning the dance had him falling “in love” with the song even more than he already had.
Also, I fell in love with it even more while learning the dance. There are sections that already feel overwhelming and the good dance makes it even more so. So in the practice room, I got very emotional.
— Mark
Jungwoo asked if it was the bridge that overwhelmed Mark, but Mark said for him it’s the chorus with the unforgettable line, “I love you, and I love you again.”
Jungwoo talked again about how emotional “Favorite (Vampire)” made the group during a recent radio show appearance. He said that they got so emotional, they even had to take a break during dance practice!
When we were all practicing together, because of the sad lyrics, which are ‘I love you, and I love you again,’ all of us were crying. For real. On that day we were like, ‘Wait, hold on, let’s take a break.’
