Hey NCTzen, are you ready for NCT 2020? Whether that’s a Yes or a No, we have your back. This comeback support guide should provide you with a decent variety of ways in which you can support OT23 these upcoming promotions, along with some goals which we can strive to achieve in unity. Please do not forget to take breaks and not pressure yourself too much in order to enjoy this meaningful era to the fullest!
👉 Youtube | Goal: 10M views & 1M likes
Please know that YouTube has become a lot stricter in recent years and invalidates a lot more views than they did before. Hence keep in mind the following when streaming the upcoming NCT 2020 music videos:
Do NOT use any unapproved tricks or extensions (Adblock, Auto Refresh, etc)!
Manually stream music videos. This means watching about 5 to 8 times until the end of a video, closing the video and watching other videos in between (i.e. WayV ‘Turn Back Time’ MV) before repeating this process again.
Use a playlist only when you can’t manually stream. The playlist must consist of at least two other videos in order to not look like spam!
Don’t watch in incognito mode or log out of your account.
You must watch the music video from SMTOWN’s or NCT’s official YouTube channel!
Like, comment and share the video!
👉 BILLBOARD | Goal: No.1 Worldwide Albums, No.1 Top Albums, No.2 Social 50, Top 5 Artist 100, Top 5 Billboard 200, Top 25 Global 500, Top 50 Global 500 (US)
Here’s what you can do to directly influence the charts:
Buy a physical copy from an official store listed here
Buy a digital copy on iTunes, Tidal, Google Play or Amazon
Stream on Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play Music, Tidal, Pandora or Amazon Music Unlimited (Paid Subscriptions count for more units per listen than unpaid, and illegal streams on any streaming site are not counted, obviously)
Suggest the songs to radio stations in the U.S.
Stream the music videos on SMTOWN or NCT’s Official YouTube Channel
Follow, mention and retweet from the official Twitter (participate in mass posting events for Twitter hashtags and always include @NCTsmtown in your tweets so it counts for the chart)
👉 iTunes | Goal: No.1 in 30 countries, No.1 Worldwide Album, No.1 Worldwide Song
Reaching these goals for iTunes will also help to reach the goals set for Billboard!
Purchase all tracks individually. Every 10 songs are equivalent to one album sale!
Only purchase the tracks together if you can’t afford to get them separately.
After buying a title, delete it from your library and don’t download it again. Streaming should be done manually for it to count!
👉 Spotify | Goal: 600k streams, Top 200 in 15 countries
Paid Subscriptions count for more units per listen than unpaid, and illegal streams on any streaming site are not counted, obviously
👉 Trends | Goal: No.1 trending on Youtube, Twitter and Weibo, No.1 Real-time Search on Naver
Most of these are pretty straightforward, but we’ll elaborate on Naver specifically as it’s not as commonly used amongst international fans.
Go to https://www.naver.com/
Enter NCT, NCT 2020, or the title track in question into the search bar
Click on a related article or blog entry and stay on the page for at least 10 seconds
Repeat this however many times with a variety of related keywords and articles
