Founder and executive producer Lee Soo-man also attended the event as a keynote speaker.

“We have previously announced our plans to search for talented youths in Vietnam and create NCT-V, a subunit of NCT,” Lee said in his keynote speech. “We are looking forward to fostering a global star.”

Lee also commented on Vietnam’s great potential and interest in Korean culture.

S.M. Entertainment announced that it would launch an NCT Vietnam team at the Maeil Business Vietnam Forum on Dec. 5, 2017. The company also signed a memorandum of understanding with Vietnam’s largest retailer, IPP Group, on May 10.
