Regular-Irregular will be NCT 127’s first South Korean release in almost seven months, following its entry in NCT’s debut studio album, Empathy, called “Touch”.
In May this year, the sub-unit debuted in Japan through the mini album, Chain. It was led by the song of the same name. It also included the Japanese version of “Limitless” which was first released in November of 2017.
