Red Velvet has kept a lower profile lately, with members pursuing individual projects following their return Cosmic earlier this year. Things finally seem to be changing, as a recent post has piqued the interest of fans.
After the group’s release in June and subsequent anniversary fan meeting tour across Asia, each member has been focusing on their solo plans. Seulgi she has been active on her YouTube channel and recently held a photography exhibition, while Irene is preparing for his highly anticipated solo debut. Fans have heard about it Position AND Joy ready to take on new acting roles. In the meantime, Wendy she has resumed her radio hosting duties and will appear as a judge on an upcoming survival show.
This continuous wave of solo activity has kept fans busy. However, today, the group shared a cryptic photo without a caption, leaving fans emotional and perplexed. The post features a selfie of one of the members holding a colorful and decorated ice cream, although it is difficult to identify her as only her lips are visible in the frame.
However, ReVeluvs (Red Velvet’s fandom) are convinced that the member is Irene, interpreting the post as a clue to her solo debut announcement, scheduled for tonight.
The supposed main clue? The post was shared at exactly 3:29pm KST, a significant number for fans as it represents Irene’s birthday on March 29.

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