Mark your calendars, ReveLuvs! K-pop girl group Red Velvet confirmed that they’re making their highly-anticipated comeback with What A Chill Kill. 

On Wednesday, October 18, the quintet dropped the first teaser for their upcoming third full-length album. 

In the poster, a bonsai tree with pink leaves is surrounded by trinkets such as a pair of high heels, a disembodied hand, and more. 

According to a report by Sports Seoul, What a Chill Kill, which will be released on November 13, will feature 10 new songs. Other details such as the theme and title track have yet to be announced. 

Although no other details have been provided yet, fans of the group are already sent into a frenzy as the “Psycho” hitmaker is known for their intriguing concepts. And based on the eerie teaser alone, ReveLuvs are already anticipating another interesting concept for What a Chill Kill. 

Moreover, What a Chill Kill will come almost a year after the group last made a comeback. In November 2022, they released the mini-album The ReVe Festival 202 – Birthday. 

Furthermore, it’s also been six years since Red Velvet released a full-length album. To note, their second full-length album was 2017’s Perfect Velvet, which carried the single “Peek-a-Boo.” 

The significance of ‘What a Chill Kill’ for Red Velvet fans 

Given the long break between the album releases, it’s unsurprising how fans are eagerly awaiting for Red Velvet’s return. 

But what makes What a Chill Kill even more special for fans is that it’s arriving amidst speculations regarding the members’ status as SM Entertainment artists. 

In August, Seulgi was confirmed to renew her contract with SM Entertainment.  It marked the second time the K-pop idol has re-signed with the K-pop agency. She first renewed her contract in 2021, which she did alongside her fellow Red Velvet members.

However, the agency has yet to reveal the status of the other Red Velvet members, namely Irene, Wendy, Joy, and Yeri. 

Moreover, Irene was even rumored to have left SM Entertainment. Which sparked concerns among fans about the extended hiatus of Red Velvet, as the group didn’t have any activity following the conclusion of their R to V world tour in June. 

But the agency was quick to dispel the rumors, saying that the “Queendom” singers are gearing up for their comeback. 

And now that details for What a Chill Kill is released, fans see it as a positive sign that Red Velvet will continue their activities as a group.
