Ex-NCT’s Lucas Wong drops two music videos for debut solo single ‘Renegade’
Former NCT member Lucas Wong has released two music videos for his debut solo single, ‘Renegade’.
Lucas’ two music videos for ‘Renegade’ are titled ‘Plan A’ and Plan B’. The first features the ex-NCT singer performing his new single at a press conference, before he transforms into an animated mouse in the middle of his set.
Meanwhile, ‘Plan B’ is the more choreography focused music video and follows Lucas as he performs ‘Renegade’ on the runway of an airport, before he heads into a building to start the press conference seen in ‘Plan A’.
‘Renegade’ features three English tracks, with label SM Entertainment describing the title track as a “rock-based hip-hop song that embodies the ambition to pursue one’s own path without hesitation, embracing change for a better direction and a stronger inner self”.

The official announcement of Lucas’ debut solo single comes just days after SM Entertainment confirmed that the ex-NCT member would make his return this year. It marks his first project since he went on hiatus in August 2021 after a South Korean netizen claiming to be his ex-girlfriend accused him of gaslighting her.
Lucas would later leave both NCT and its sub-group WayV in May 2023, but would remain signed under SM Entertainment, with the label saying that the singer was “planning on showing his performance though a wide variety of individual works from now on”.
Last month, the Hong Kong-born K-pop idol addressed is past controversies in a two-part documentary titled Freeze and Unfreeze. Along with the release of the documentary, SM Entertainment had also launched brand-new official accounts for Lucas.
Aside from NCT and WayV, Lucas is also a member of the SM Entertainment supergroup SuperM. However, the singer’s status in the boyband is currently unclear, with the group not having released music since 2021.
