Lately, there’s been a buzz around one particular idol that’s impossible to ignore. Red Velvet‘s Irene, the leader of one of South Korea’s most beloved girl groups, has left the fandom raging with speculation. Could she finally be making her highly-awaited solo debut?
For years, fans have eagerly awaited Irene’s solo venture — especially after witnessing the successful solo debuts of her group members Wendy, Seulgi, and Joy. Wendy is even preparing to charm fans with a second solo mini album, raising questions about when Irene will take her solo bow.
It’s definitely not for lack of talent — Irene is renowned for her multifaceted abilities. She can sing, dance, and rap, and her popularity is undisputed. Moreover, her vocal prowess has been increasingly praised, underscoring her readiness for a solo project.
