Girl group Red Velvet member Joy made a message that seemed to complain to her agency on the day of her comeback, drawing attention.
At a paid platform communication platform on the 24th when Red Velvet's new album "Cosmic" was released, Joy said, "Well, they just told us to wait without listening to our opinions at all, they didn't make any changes to the music video [that we asked for]," and then settled down, "I don't think I should say more, so I should be quiet."
It's unacceptable that Joy, despite her hard work on the comeback, got LITTLE SCREEN TIME and FEW LINES. She doesn't need the most parts, but the DISTRIBUTION SHOULD BE FAIR. Reciprocating her efforts with sadness is unjust!

On that day, the music video for "Cosmic" was released later than originally expected. On Red Velvet's official SNS, there was a notice that "the release time was delayed to improve the completeness of the music video," and the music video was released a few minutes later. Since Joy's remarks have been made since then, fans are raising doubts about the communication process between Joy and her agency.
In addition, fans and industry insiders agree that Joy's remarks are very meaningful as Red Velvet's renewal period is reportedly approaching. Among the members, Seulgi renewed her contract in August last year, and Irene also announced her renewal in February. However, news of Joy, Wendy, and Yeri's renewal has not yet been reported.
Meanwhile, Red Velvet made their comeback with "Cosmic", they are celebrating their 10th anniversary this year so the album is even more special.
