‘From Joy, With Love’ marks Joy’s first comeback since making her official debut as a soloist four years back.
In May 2021, she dropped her first EP, ‘Hello,’ which also the title of the namesake single.
Joy made her debut, along with Irene, Seulgi, and Wendy, as part of Red Velvet in 2014 with the song ‘Happiness,’ which was later followed by their rendition of the song ‘Be Natural’ of their senior group S.E.S.
In 2015, in time for the release of ‘Ice Cream Cake,’ they formally introduced Yeri as the group’s fifth member.
They went on to drop more hit singles in the following years, such as ‘Dumb Dumb,’ ‘Russian Roulette,’ ‘Rookie,’ ‘Red Flavor,’ ‘Peek-A-Boo,’ ‘Bad Boy,’ ‘Power Up,’ ‘Zimzalabim,’ ‘Umpah Umpah,’ ‘Psycho,’ ‘Queendom,’ ‘Feel My Rhythm,’ and ‘Chill Kill,’ among many others.
In 2024, the group made their most-recent comeback for ‘Cosmic,’ which was their 10th anniversary single, and even staged their ‘My Dear Reve1uv’ tour in multiple countries, including the Philippines, to mark the said occasion.
