SM Entertainment revolutionized the Korean popular music landscape when the talent and entertainment empire debuted Neo Culture Technology or known as NCT - the only group so far to have an unlimited member scheme.

Currently, NCT has 23 members with three fixed sub-units - NCT 127, NCT Dream, and WayV, and a rotational unit NCT U.

Considering the number of members, fans assume that the group does not just embody talent diversity, but also personality and cultural variance as NCT is known to be one of the K-pop boy groups with numerous foreign members.

Have you ever wondered how it feels to be an NCT member? NCT's main rapper and main dancer, Mark, has something to say.

Mark 'Dignified' As NCT Member

NCT Mark proving he is a baddie not just in the music industry as he recently scored his solo debut as a magazine cover boy for the November issue of Harper's Bazaar. In this photoshoot, Mark showed different facets of his personality.

For the November issue, the theme was "No Boundary." As the Canadian rapper is immersed in sub-units such as NCT 127 and NCT Dream and he also completed the supergroup, SuperM, it is a no-brainer on how he can effortlessly navigate "youthful" and "matured" themes.

Additionally, being named as an ambassador of Polo Ralph Lauren, Mark dazed the fans with magazine photo teasers wearing the said luxury brand's line.

As he fronts the magazine, a full interview will be released upon the publication of the issue next month. However, snippets were shared as Mark talked about how it feels to be an NCT member and how he feels toward his members and fans.

"When I'm faced with a hardship in life, I believe that it's me who will ultimately catch myself. And my members. I'm positive that I was able to get to this point because I had my members. Lastly, you could think this is obvious, but I also sincerely think Seasony [NCT's fan club nickname]. Those people have to be there in the first place for us to exist and for me to exist." - Mark
