NCT WISH Wishful Winter Teaser makes K-Fans Emotional
NCT WISH has touched fans’ hearts with a sentimental detail in their ‘Wishful Winter’ album teaser. The video features a doll called Tonton which is deeply related to NCT WSIH RYO, eliciting strong emotional responses from viewers.
The doll’s backstory adds a layer of warmth to the teaser. It was originally a wedding gift from RYO’s father to his mother, later given to NCT WISH RYO on his birth day. This cherished item has been with RYO throughout his entire life, making its appearance in the teaser particularly meaningful.
Fans were moved to see NCT WISH RYO still treasuring this lifelong companion, now featured in the group’s promotional content. This thoughtful inclusion provides insight into the members’ personal lives, demonstrating their connection to their roots.

Knetz Reaction toward NCT WISH Wishful Winter Teaser
@icedcupidforyou: “Something about WISH… they seem really clever. Instead of creating a new concept, they analyze the interesting characteristics of each member and combine stories that fit well with the group. It suits the group’s color and showcases each member well. That’s why I’m so excited for every concept…”
@saxxkuya: “Usually, when looking at idol groups, I often felt that companies created teams to fit their desired concept, composing members and creating albums and content accordingly. But with WISH, it feels like they’re creating content that suits the members, based on a group built on a good understanding of each individual member, rather than pursuing the company’s concept.”
@Ryozzang: “Ryo and Tonton… While Tonton got new green ears, Ryo has grown so much that he’s now much bigger than Tonton…”
