For SM Entertainment‘s 30th anniversary concert, SMTOWN Live in Seoul, several artists under the company participated in a remake project where they covered songs by their fellow juniors or seniors. Some of the remakes were so well-received that they’ve attracted massive attention online — one standout being Red Velvet‘s rendition of Girls’ Generation‘s “Run Devil Run.”

Although Wendy and Yeri were not part of the performance (Wendy cited personal reasons, while Yeri couldn’t participate due to her busy schedule), Irene, Seulgi, and Joy delivered a performance that became one of the hottest parts of the star-studded concert.

The gorgeous trio elevated the song’s sexiness to unexpected levels with their rendition, leaving a strong impression on viewers. It’s no wonder Korean netizens can’t stop talking about it!

While the decision to change elements of the beloved original instrumental was bold, the three now-seasoned stars expertly performed the track, showcasing not only their unmatched vocal power but also introducing a fresh, sexy vibe that we (unfortunately) rarely see from Red Velvet.

Soon after the cover aired on SM Entertainment’s Weverse, live stream videos of the performance made their way online, and fans couldn’t stop the well-earned praise Irene, Seulgi, and Joy received.

It seems like Korean netizens felt the same way as minutes later the performance got on the Hot page of TheQoo with more views than most other trending topics related to the concert. The post already has over 25,000 views and hundreds of comments filled with praise.
