“Black on Black” is performed by all 18 members who participated in EMPATHY. The song won enthusiastic responses at the 2016’s Mnet Asian Music Awards after it was presented through NCT’s powerful performance.

The NCT 2018 version arranged this time raises great expectations as the members have prepared for a long time to present a higher quality performance. TAEYONG, MARK, and LUCAS’s raps were added to escalate the song’s quality even further.

NCT promoted the song as a whole on various Korean music programs.
