Fans are eagerly awaiting the return of Red Velvet in 2024, as the five-member group is scheduled to release their highly anticipated comeback single “Cosmic”on June 24. With the official announcement of the comeback date, the group has been sharing a variety of teasers online.

On June 18, Red Velvet shared teaser images of member Joy on their official social media platforms. The pictures showcased the idol’s stunning appearance, featuring her sophisticated attire, styling, and ethereal backgrounds.

The OP verified that the person in the image is indeed Red Velvet’s Joy, stating, “This is Red Velvet’s Joy.“

In the comments section, numerous people shared their confusion regarding the teaser photo. Netizens pointed out how heavily edited Joy appeared and were surprised by her unrecognizable appearance.

  • “I thought it was (G)I-DLE Soyeon.”

  • “That’s not Sullyoon?”
  • “Who? Who are you? That’s not Joy?”
