The boys of NCT have celebrated their 10th anniversary in the most chaotic way possible — by turning themselves into their very own Idol Star Athletics Championships. With this year’s Chuseok ISAC cancelled, all of NCT’s units came together to throw their own version of the event, and it sounds like pure variety gold.

Why NCT Held Their Own ISAC
The Idol Star Athletics Championships, first launched in 2010, is a flagship MBC holiday variety show where idols compete in sporting events. This year, however, ISAC was not held for Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving) because the holiday overlapped with the Asian Games.
Rather than sit out the tradition, NCT decided to mark their 10th anniversary by hosting the “NCT Athletics Championships” — bringing together members from NCT 127, NCT DREAM, WayV, and NCT WISH under one roof for a full day of competition.
Two Teams, One Chaotic Showdown
The members split into two teams to face off in a variety of events, including tug of war, “catch the tail”, dodgeball, and a special relay race.
Team White, led by captain Ryo, featured Taeyong, Kun, Jaehyun, Xiaojun, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, Yushi, and Jaehee.
Team Pink, led by captain Sakuya, featured Johnny, Yuta, Hendery, Renjun, Jeno, YangYang, Jisung, Sion, and Riku — though Yuta had to sit out the games due to an injury.
With all four units finally sharing one stage (or field), the event gave NCTzens a rare look at the full group’s offstage chemistry — and fans are already calling for this to become an annual tradition.
