SM Entertainment

It’s time to celebrate, ReVeluv! For the first time in two years, Red Velvet will drop a new mini-album called Queendom. The group — made up of Irene, Wendy, Seulgi, Joy, and Yeri — announced their latest release on Aug. 2 by sharing a comeback schedule detailing all the important dates fans can expect comeback teasers. The calendar revealed their sixth mini-album would arrive later in August. Since it’ll be here soon, here’s everything you need to know about Red Velvet's Queendom, from its release date and tracklist to its music video teasers.

The group’s last album was The ReVe Festival: Finale in December 2019. It marked Red Velvet’s final release in their The ReVe Festival trilogy, which brought hits like "Zimzalabim,” "Umpah Umpah,” and “Psycho.” Although the girls didn’t release an album in 2020, they dropped a few singles like “Future,” which got featured in the popular K-drama Start-Up, and “Just Sing,” which was part of the Trolls World Tour OST. The members also shared a number of solo projects with fans since then, including Wendy’s debut solo EP, Like Water.

Red Velvet has definitely kept themselves busy these past few years. Now, they’re about to make their biggest comeback yet with Queendom. Read all the details surrounding their album below.
