Following its release, they won their first music show trophy in the show “Music Bank”, and their album was the best-selling among all-girl groups during the first half of the year. Later that year they released their first full-length album called “The Red” which contained 10 tracks.

Their second mini-album was released in 2016 called “The Velvet”, containing the title track “One of These Nights”. They followed it up with a third mini-album “Russian Roulette”, and the title track reached the second spot of the Gaon Digital Chart.

In 2017 they released their fourth EP in “Rookie”, which led them to winning on numerous music shows such as “Inkigayo”, and “M Countdown”. A special extended play release soon followed called “The Red Summer”, which was followed by a solo concert called “red Room”. Later in the year, they released their second full album called “Perfect Velvet”, which had the lead single “Peek-a-Boo”.

Recent Work with Red Velvet and Other Projects

In 2018, Red Velvet released a reissue of “Perfect Velvet” called “The Perfect Red Velvet”, which featured five new tracks.

The album was highly successful, and gained a lot of international attention, so they began performing in Japan, and released their debut Japanese EP called “#Cookie Jar”; their fifth EP called “RBB” was released later in the year.
