Red Velvet Post Cryptic Photo On Social Media Leaving Fans Stunned

What could it mean…

Red Velvet has kept a lower profile lately, with members pursuing individual projects after their comeback with Cosmic earlier this year. Things seem to finally be changing, as a recent post has piqued fans’ interest.

Following the group’s June release and subsequent anniversary fan meeting tour across Asia, each member has focused on their own solo schedules. Seulgi has been active on her YouTube channel and recently held a photo exhibition, while Irene has been preparing for her highly anticipated solo debut. Fans have heard rumors of Yeri and Joy set to take on new acting roles. Meanwhile, Wendy has resumed her radio hosting duties and is set to appear as a judge on an upcoming survival show.

This ongoing wave of solo activities has kept fans busy. However, today, the group shared a cryptic photo without a caption, leaving fans both excited and puzzled. The post features a selfie of one of the members holding a decorated, colorful ice cream, though it’s difficult to identify her since only her lips are visible in the frame.

Nevertheless, ReVeluvs (Red Velvet’s fandom) are convinced that the member is Irene, interpreting the post as a hint about her solo debut announcement, which is expected later tonight.

The alleged main clue? The post was shared at exactly 3:29 PM KST — a number significant to fans as it represents Irene’s birthday, March 29.

With her solo debut confirmed earlier this year and rumors of production dating back to September, fans have been eagerly awaiting more news.

The extended silence from SM Entertainment on Irene’s solo has only amplified the anticipation. Unfortunately, it has also frustrated many, with tensions between the girl group’s fandom and the company growing every day.

Now, it seems the wait is finally over.

Fans can’t wait to see what Irene’s solo — which has been a long, long time coming — has in store. We’re sure we’ll see sides of the SM Entertainment gem we’ve never seen before, and just like ReVeluvs… we can’t wait!
