Red Velvet member Wendy just raised hopes for a full-group comeback, directly hinting at the possibility and sending fans into overdrive.
Appearing on the April 25 broadcast of JTBC’s variety show ‘Knowing Bros,’ Wendy showed off both her sharp wit and strong vocals. On the show, she shared the backstory behind her nickname, the “Shine On Me girl,” which she earned for flawlessly delivering the high note part “Shine On Me” during promotions for Red Velvet’s debut track ‘Happiness.’
The biggest buzz came from her mention of a full-group return. Wendy said, “I think there will be good news this year,” adding, “Fans have been waiting for it.” When Lee Soo-geun asked, “Are you promising it’s happening?” Wendy replied, “I promise,” drawing strong reactions from those in the studio.
At present, Red Velvet’s Irene, Seulgi, Joy, Yeri, and Wendy are all pursuing solo activities across music, acting, variety, and musicals. If a full-group comeback materializes, it is expected to draw significant attention.
Meanwhile, Wendy is set to join ENA’s variety program ‘THE SCOUT: STARS REBORN’ as a mentor, with the show scheduled to premiere on May 8.
