The 'Golden Age' album made waves not only in Japan but also on a global scale. It ruled major domestic album charts — monthly, weekly, and daily — and secured the top spot on music broadcasts. Besides its Japanese success, the album also shot up to first place on the worldwide iTunes album chart.

The new release of NCT has been embraced warmly by global audiences, clean-sweeping multiple charts and securing first places with ease.

In addition to their success on the charts, NCT has also recently displayed their immense popularity through live performances in Japan. The group held their series of live concerts named 'NCT STADIUM LIVE 'NCT NATION: To The World-in JAPAN'' in Osaka and Tokyo last September. The event tickets sold out almost instantaneously for all four performances, packing stadiums with approximately 220,000 NCT admirers, a testament to their incredible fan reach.
