South Korean boy band group NCT has fans all hyped up about their upcoming Beyond Live concert on December 27, which in view of COVID-19 pandemic will be held virtually. The concert titled NCT: Resonance Global Wave will be live-streamed and also offer a unique AR experience to bring real-time interaction with artists and fans.

While the excitement among NCT fans is shooting through the roof, there's a bit of sad news that follows. NCT member Taeyong will be skipping the Beyond Live concert due to health reasons. In a statement released by SM Entertainment, Taeyong's herniated disc in his lower back has relapsed. As a result, Taeyong will be taking a break from all activities until full recovery.
