Popular Korean girl group “Red Velvet” members IRENE and SEULGI made their first visit to Malaysia as a subunit, returning to the Malaysian stage after 8 years. The two excitedly exclaimed: “After 8 years, we’re finally back!” IRENE even surprised fans by revealing that during her trainee days 19 years ago, she used to live with a Malaysian roommate. Because of this, she has always seen Malaysia as a warm and special country. During the more than two-hour show, the duo not only performed subunit and solo songs, but in the encore segment, they brought RV classics such as “Jelly”, “You Better Know”, “Zimzalabim”, “Red Flavor”, and “Power Up”. Notably, they performed “Zimzalabim” four times in a row, with all the fans singing, dancing, and shouting along, instantly turning the venue into a massive party, and pushing the atmosphere to the peak!

They followed up with songs like “Feel Good” and “Trampoline”, with fans cheering enthusiastically. They excitedly said: “It’s really been a long time, right? The last time we came to Malaysia should have been the fan meeting for the 2017 mini album. After 8 years, we’re finally back!”
After performing five songs, SEULGI changed into a burgundy leather outfit for her individual stage, exuding charisma and sexiness. Afterwards, she teamed up with IRENE for “Diamond” and “Naughty”, and then IRENE took the stage solo to deliver a soft and beautiful performance, showcasing a completely different charm.
