NCT 2020 on Kingdom: Advantage or Disadvantage?

Introduction

In my mind, the hypothetical scenario of NCT 2020 aka NCT ot23 competing on 'Kingdom', the popular South Korean reality show, has sparked an interesting debate. While the outcome could be considered an advantage or disadvantage depending on how NCT2020 approaches the competition, it's essential to first consider the equal playing field among all idols and groups.

Equal Playing Field

Idols and groups from various agencies are known for their individual strengths. Some excel in dance, others in vocals, rap, or a combination of these. However, all of them bring a unique flavor to the competition, making each performance memorable. Therefore, while NCT2020 may be widely recognized, I do not believe they are inherently superior or doomed to underperform. They have a fair shot at success, just like any other group competing on the show.

Disadvantages of NCT2020

Firstly, the sheer number of members in NCT2020 (23 members) presents a significant challenge. Managing such a large group for regular rehearsals and coordination across multiple stages can be extremely daunting. NCT is already known for their dedication to constant promotion, rehearsing, recording, and preparing for comebacks, all of which require intense scheduling and management. For instance, imagine trying to get 23 members on the same schedule for regular rehearsals, and then coordinating the ideas and input of that many individuals. The sheer scale of organization needed is enormous. This could lead to a few benefits and drawbacks: Members who may constantly have the spotlight. Members who might constantly be relegated to backup dancer status. Such diversity in spotlight can cause uneven engagement and dissatisfaction among members, potentially leading to morale issues or creative stagnation. Additionally, this could also spell logistical challenges from management's perspective, ensuring everyone is on the same page and contributing effectively.

Advantages of NCT2020

On the other hand, the large number of members can also be a significant advantage. Consider the possibility of selecting members for each performance based on their individual strengths. This approach allows NCT2020 to showcase a wide variety of styles and concepts, much like the way NCT U operates. By rotating members, it can also help distribute the stress more evenly among all members, allowing them to take breaks and recharge, which could lead to better overall performance. While the other groups will prepare for each stage, certain members of NCT would perform different stages, thus ensuring that the workload is more balanced. This method could alleviate the pressure on individual members and promote a healthier work environment, contributing to a more cohesive team dynamic.

Optimal Strategy for NCT2020

Considering all the factors, NCT2020 would probably have the best chance of success if they compete as a fixed unit, such as NCT127, NCT Dream, or WayV. Alternatively, they could pick a smaller, fixed group (around 10-11 members) and compete as NCT U for the entire duration of the show. This approach would ensure that all members feel equally involved and contribute fairly. Conclusion In conclusion, while the hypothetical scenario of NCT2020 competing on 'Kingdom' presents both advantages and disadvantages, the most effective strategy would likely involve maintaining a smaller, cohesive group to balance individual strengths and maintain team harmony.
