IRENE of RED VELVET

"Undisclosed music source" Is it just me or is SM trying to treat this as the solo that was promised? Something seems off with the layout change and all, but then again what are the other three pages It looks like they have planned a lot this year

[Guest]

She is seriously the most stunning woman alive

Irene already told us at her birthday that “I feel pretty” will be released as part of her exhibition. That is the “undisclosed music source”. The layout change is Irene’s idea and the bunny is her drawing. She has thought about these details for the exhibition alone. She puts 100% effort into everything and thinks out everything meticulously. She always takes her time to give her fans the best experience. There will be another layout change for RV cb then again for Irene’s solo. I get it we are all so used to being screwed over by SM so just trust Irene’s words and wait for her solo announcement. We will get the solo roll out as usual and an album. If you think about it she’s made this one so exciting we are all treating it like her solo.

The 4 pages so far are-
1. Home
2. Silhouette
3.
4.

I'm imagining myself seeing that whole exhibit.

[Guest]

Wow 10 years gap, Be Natural Irene came home.
This is the best release of her so far.

[Guest]

Finally SM let Irene do a concept for grown a*s woman. If ever her solo album images will be like Silhouette twin, ahhhhhh get all all of my money.

Exactly! I need her in mature concept at all times! I freaking love this concept for silhouette so much. It looks so good it can even be a great album concept.

DA I like to keep my expectation low too after years of being disappointed by that company so these teasers definitely exceeded my expectations. Everything seems so planned and organized so far, down to the little detail like the special number for the date & address. Even with only the 4 pages teasers, we'll be getting 8 nights straight of updates and who knows what else is coming. I'm so happy for Irene and baetokkis

[Guest]

QR card to undisclosed source makes me think they won’t be releasing I feel pretty but that doesn’t track with the AR team going to Japan with her so maybe it’s a practice or an acoustic version

As for the photos, I think all of them are mature, even the home ones. She’s giving dynamic grown woman, yeah some photos are definitely cute but it doesn’t feel played up like idol style, it’s natural. I really like this style.

[Guest]

Same anon., so hard to be a broke baetokki. I think we need to be contented for hard copy, better to have anything than nothing.

[Guest]

W on a Korean magazine and someone, supposedly the visual and debuting solo can’t even get one?

Congratulations, how long did it take? 10 years? It's good to know that there is someone looking out for Wendy at SM

She's also scared of height but went parasailing AND paragliding at least twice as seen on LUP and W&H. She said she wouldn't be able to drive because she was scared of.. I can't remember what.. but then she got her license and is now such a good driver. She's unstoppable.

[Guest]

SPOILERSPOILER

She's the sweetest.

HER FACE UPCLOSE.

Are we expecting BJH1 to chart? Serious question.

[Guest]

Are we expecting BJH1 to chart? Serious question.

Imo nope. It's difficult to chart now specially for 3rd gen groups unless she has a hit by some miracle.

[Guest]

Are we expecting BJH1 to chart? Serious question.

No. I expect her to have decent album sales and MV views (waaay better than W and about the same as S). She'd probably do even better if bjh1 was released last year, because now the kpop bubble has bursted and eveyone's been affected by this, and to make matters worse, RV has lost relevancy with the GP and is bleeding fans like crazy. Irene's individual fandom is still strong, but like it or not, those two factors will have an impact on bjh1.
Basically, charting is out of the RV members' reach atp, specially for someone who is not a main or lead vocalist. The only way I can see bjh1 charting is if she gets given a really good and catchy TT that goes viral, and judging by SM's track record that's not gonna happen. That ship is sinking fast and the company has lost their midas touch, everything they've release over the last couple years is from mid, to downright horrible, and unfortunately, I don't expect bjh1 to be any different.

[Guest]

Saw this on twt and can't help but loved Irene for treasuring all the details about her journey w/ fans.
Whoever the lucky person to be w/ her in the future will be treated w/ sentimental memories & so much more, her attention to details was admirable.

Hi I'm new here, very new to Kpop, RV is the only group I'm interested, just because one day I stumbled up some Irene's video chips, it literally changed my life, then I learned about her "scandal", to me it made no sense at all, why she did that? Anyway my questions are
1. Why not she just quit after that happened? she was almost 30 at the time, had a proud career behind her, she should know she will lost everything, and for RV she only have limited lines even before, so why not just move on? unless the contract restrict it.
2, why she renew the contract, she is 33, compare now to old glory days, tbh it's a humiliation still be an idol today, I think she should start new life sooner than later
3. RV members may had good relationship before, I think there were in very good place after "psycho" release, but then Wendy accident and Irene 1022 hurt the group alot, no one can blame Wendy, but do you think others will treat Irene as nothing really happened?

Fuck off with your trolling attempts

[Guest]

Awww Irene simply shutting every mouth that doubting her.


Good job to every1 who can detect shit stirrer earlier, for sure many will try to bewilder this thread especially now BJH1 is near and baetokkis being spoon feed left and right nowadays.

What are you taking about, I just feel heartbroken when thinking that before RV maybe not as popular as BP, Irene was on par with them, but today? I wish I could back to that day to stop her, she deserve to be on top.

Baeby in bbl.

Hopefully more to come.

She's so beautiful just like that.

[Guest]

Can some1 send me to SK pretty please.

[Guest]

Irene worried so much.

[Guest]

[Guest]

When others get talked for talents, she’s only good for her visuals even then it’s nothing if it comes with a rotten personality not even brands want to take a chance on her anymore, can’t even appear on local magazines, or on local broadcasts either. Brought shame to her group she supposedly leads.

[guest]

Yeah. Gorgeous indeed.

[Guest]

What does it mean? I don't understand thai

[Guest]

[Guest]

So we are not getting I Feel Pretty on streaming sites like YT music or spotify? Was hoping we'd get to have that at least as a fan present or something...

Yeah, it's a let down. I mean, I don't see the point of limiting it to the exclusive version when people are gonna share the song anyway, but now due to SM's stupidity, it's gonna be through illegal means

[Guest]

This woman has 0 talent and 0 personality

[Guest]

You people call that art
No wonder nobody takes her “talent” seriously

Something I've always admired about her is her resilience and her willpower to overcome her fears and better herself.
After 1022 she could've easily give up on her idol career, let herself be defeated by her scandal and retire from the public eye like many idols have done before and after her. Hell, she could have decided to stay in her comfort zone as a RV member and give up on any chance of a solo career because it was the easier, comfy thing to do. But she didn't, on the contrary, she used that time to to hone her craft through vocal and dance classes, she never let herself be defeated.
Remember how nervous she was when she covered for W on youngstreet? I remember some anons said they would've preferred if she didn't go ahead with it because it was painful to watch her almost in the middle of a nervous breakdown, but personally I always found the fact that she pushed herself to overcome her fear and anxiety pretty admirable. And it paid off, because while she still struggles a little bit in certain public events (e.g. she was pretty nervous on Immortal songs), her current self is a far cry from the Irene from 2021-2022. I have mad respect for her, as a person and as an idol and I'm proud to be her fan

Exactly. Everytime I feel tired and disappointed (not in her, but by everything else e.g. the company and the situation), she would come out and do something that surprise me and make the "suffering" worth it. 2024 has been quite great so far with Waves magazine, Immortal Songs and of course this photo exhibition. Certainly not enough, but we'll definitely see more later this year.

[Guest]

The aesthetic! and how cute she is holding that giant (actually normal-sized) boom mic.

[Guest]

There’s a reason why you had to stop shippers from pointing out similarities, because you were afraid Irene would be left nothing of her own. That’s right that’s what happens when you stan someone who has no interest or color of her own.

you're very desperate, at this point I think you would try to kill Irene

Oh look 0 comprehension. Her fans can’t understand simple sentences just as she can’t do anything that’s deemed worthy of an “artist”

[Guest]

what a big bait
