Red Velvet

At the moment, I am only a fan of one female kpop group, and they are Red Velvet. They are a pretty new group, that was only formed a year ago. The reason why I am talking about them now is because they have just released one of their singles that will be complied together in a new album: The Red. Red Velvet is a very popular group, despite being so new, because their previous single, Ice Cream Cake, was a massive hit.

Favourite Member: Joy

Joy was born as Park Soo Young on September 3, 1996 (age 19) in Seoul, South Korea. In grade school, she performed K-rock band Cherry Filter's Flying Duck which began her aspiration to become a singer. She auditioned and was cast by S.M. Entertainment at the SM Global Audition in Seoul in 2012. She graduated from School of Performing Arts Seoul in February 2015. In 2015, Joy gained public interest by joining the fourth season of reality show We Got Married, where she was paired with BtoB member Yook Sungjae. Which is where I also found my interest in Joy and the rest of Red Velvet.

Wendy, Irene, Yeri, Seulgi + Joy.
