ReVeluv, the devoted fan base of Red Velvet, is expressing growing concern about the girl group’s future following the recent statements made by member Joy against their company. The question on everyone’s mind is whether or not the group will be renewing their contracts.
Joy, a member of the popular group Red Velvet, caused a stir when she openly criticized her agency, SM Entertainment. The lack of any updates regarding Joy’s contract renewal with SM Entertainment has sparked worries that she may be experiencing complications in the negotiation process.
On June 24, Red Velvet celebrated their tenth anniversary with the release of their highly anticipated album “Cosmic.”The album was an instant hit, dominating the iTunes Top Albums charts in 41 different regions around the world, including the US, UK, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan.
Despite facing delays in post-production, the album’s release was also hindered by a delayed music video for the title track.
Upon witnessing the situation, Joy did not hesitate to voice her discontent. On the fan communication platform Bubble, Joy replied to a fan’s inquiry about the release of the music video. She shared, “We were simply told to be patient without taking our thoughts into consideration, and then presented with an unedited music video,”conveying her unease.

The recent display of dissatisfaction from Joy has caused concern among fans that there may be tension between her and SM Entertainment. For loyal followers of Red Velvet, the contractual status of the members is a delicate and significant topic. It was officially announced by SM Entertainment that two members, Seulgi in August 2023 and Irene in February, have renewed their contracts with the agency.
Despite this, there has been no updates on contract renewals for members Joy, Wendy, and Yeri, leaving the future of Red Velvet as a complete group in doubt. This uncertainty has been amplified by Joy’s public criticism, further complicating the potential renewal of her and her fellow members’ contracts.
