SEOUL, Jan. 14 (Yonhap) -- NCT WISH will release its first Japanese mini album, "WISHLIST," at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, its agency SM Entertainment said.

The album features seven tracks, including the title song "Hello Mellow," along with future bass-based "ZONE," which captures the excitement of falling in love, and the hip-hop dance track "BUBBLE GUM," infused with an R&B mood.

The title track is a dance-pop song that blends fluid melodies and a bass line over powerful drum performances. Through the song, NCT WISH delivers a message that even trials and hardships eventually become precious memories, encouraging listeners to cherish the present.

The release also includes a Japanese-language version of "poppop," the title track from the group’s second Korean mini album released last year.

In celebration of the album, NCT WISH will hold concerts on Saturday and Sunday at the National Yoyogi Stadium First Gymnasium in Tokyo as part of its concert tour, "INTO THE WISH : Our WISH."
