Mini bio

How it started.

Born in Seoul, Lee Tae-yong joined SM Entertainment after being scouted in 2012. He appeared through the company’s SM Rookies project before debuting with NCT U on “The 7th Sense” in 2016. That year he also became the leader of NCT 127.

Finding his own voice.

Group work introduced fans to his rap and dance, while SoundCloud became a place to share his own songs. He opened his account in 2021 with “Dark Clouds.” In 2023, he became NCT’s first member to make an official solo debut, releasing SHALALA and contributing to the writing and composition of all seven tracks.

A growing songbook.

TAP followed in February 2024. After completing Navy service in December 2025, he returned to solo touring and released WYLD in May 2026. He contributed lyrics to all ten album tracks and composition to nine, continuing to put his own experiences into his music.
