Mark, formerly of the group NCT, has officially announced the launch of his creative company, Upper Room.
According to Upper Room on the 4th, Mark established the creative company together with colleagues he has built trust with over time. Centered on music, the company plans to organically connect various content fields such as video, visuals, and performance, expanding Mark’s creative world in a more multidimensional way.
The company name signifies more than just a physical space; it represents a place where like-minded people gather to share thoughts and ideas and discover new possibilities. It reflects the intention to comprehensively support Mark’s music, vision, and various upcoming projects, and to embark on a new journey together.
In particular, Mark, who has built his own unique style as an artist over a long period, is taking on another challenge as a co-CEO and independent creator.
Coinciding with the launch, an announcement film released on the 3rd was inspired by the 15th-century era of metal type printing. It conveys the value of creations completed by human hands and respect for creators, even amid rapidly changing technological environments. All visuals were produced directly without using AI-generated images.
Along with this, visual films titled ‘Written’ and ‘The Wind’ were released, and these will be connected with four more visual films to be released sequentially on the afternoon of the 4th, completing a single narrative.
Each video follows the emotions and growth process of a young man standing at the beginning of a new journey. Capturing moments where anxiety and anticipation, questions and certainty intersect with sensuous visuals, the films may appear to tell different stories but ultimately connect into a single journey. Upper Room is expected to symbolically showcase the new beginnings and possibilities it will unfold in the future.
Attention is focused on what kind of music and stories Mark will return with in the future.

“it’s gonna be Christian music 😭” yeah it could be and it will still be the best Christian music because they would be produced, written and performed by a person who has strong faith and beliefs
mark’s bbl message… this part tho 🥹💘
“but you know this really isn't the absolute end, right? and you know this doesn't mean we'll never communicate again, right? as the date for our bubble to temporarily end approached, I was thinking about what kind of message I should leave to make y/n feel most at ease and give you strength until the very end. eventually, I naturally ended up sending you pictures of my recent music work. i’ve been working hard on various music projects in the US lately. I feel like I'm working and writing music with different people in different ways! I'm also going around looking for diverse inspiration and experiencing a wide variety of things.”
MARK I’M SO FREAKING HAPPT FOR YOU 😭💙
