Red Velvet: K-pop girl group drops third full-length album 'Chill Kill'

SM Entertainment has announced the official release of Red Velvet's third full-length album, "Chill Kill." The album includes ten songs.

Wendy, one of the group members, highlighted the album's central theme of duplicity, aiming to showcase both tragedy and hope.

Joy, another member, explained that the song captures the essence of missing Chill Kill. Despite the world-altering changes it brings, it expresses a longing for hope. .
