RED VELVET is reportedly busy preparing for a November comeback. The update comes soon after reports that leader Irene is planning not to renew her contract with SM Entertainment.
Is RED VELVET Preparing For A New Comeback Later This Year?
A new report reveals that the girl group is currently in the final stages of preparations for a November comeback. If this is true, fans can look forward to the release of RED VELVET’s 3rd full album, marking their first full album release in six years since ‘Perfect Velvet’ in 2017.
This comeback promises to be a significant moment in the group’s career, generating immense excitement among their devoted fanbase and the K-pop community at large. As they prepare to unleash their musical prowess once again, anticipation is running high for what RED VELVET has in store for their eagerly awaiting audience.
Recent reports have given rise to speculations that Irene might opt not to renew her long-standing contract with SM Entertainment, sparking concerns about the extended hiatus of RED VELVET. The group’s last activity was in June 2023 when they wrapped up their ‘R to V’ World Tour.
This development is disconcerting for fans, especially as only one member’s continued affiliation with SM Entertainment has been confirmed so far, which is Seulgi’s contract renewal. The contract statuses of the other RED VELVET members, namely Irene, Wendy, Joy, and Yeri, remain undisclosed.
While SM Entertainment has maintained silence regarding these negotiations, the group dropped hints during a livestream in August about their preparations for releasing their third full album, further fueling anticipation and intrigue surrounding their plans.
With Irene’s contract decision shrouded in uncertainty and the undisclosed status of the other members’ agreements, fans are anxiously awaiting official updates from the label, hoping for the continuation of RED VELVET’s musical journey together. Stay tuned for further developments in this ongoing story.
