The group is composed of three members: Doyoung, Jaehyun, and Jungwoo. They debuted on April 17, 2023, with their extended play (EP) Perfume.

NCT DoJaeJung was formed in early 2022, with the recording of their songs beginning in February 2022.[4] They were introduced publicly as a sub-unit for the first time in October that year, performing the song "Can We Go Back" on NCT 127's Neo City – The Link+ concerts in Seoul.[5] They also performed the song on 2022 MBC Gayo Daejejeon.[6]

2023–present: Debut with Perfume

In March 2023, SM Entertainment confirmed that NCT DoJaeJung would officially debut as a new unit of NCT. They released their debut extended play Perfume on April 17, alongside its lead single of the same name.[7][8][9] The EP consists of six tracks: "Perfume", "Kiss", "Dive", "Strawberry Sunday", "Can We Go Back", and "Ordinary". The album became a commercial success both digitally and physically, selling 672,374 copies within its first week of release, making it the highest first week sales for a K-pop debut album on Hanteo Chart.[10] On the Circle Album Chart, it has sold 806,950 copies as of May 11, 2023, making it the best-selling debut album by an SM Entertainment act.[11] The lead single, "Perfume", debuted at number four on the Circle Digital Chart, making NCT DoJaeJung the fastest NCT sub-unit to earn a top five single in South Korea.[12] It also debuted at number one on the Circle Download Chart and Circle BGM Chart.[13]

On May 4, NCT DoJaeJung performed at the fashion music festival Rakuten Girls Awards – Spring/Summer in Tokyo, Japan, which marked their first live performance in the country.[14][15] On June 24, they are set to hold their first fan concert at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Manila, Philippines.[16]
