Red Velvet Break Down Creating an English Version of 'Bad Boy,' Musical Aspirations at KCON 2018 NY
They may be based in Korea, but the world is demanding more Red Velvet.
From their first official fan meetup in Chicago last April to landing hits in Canada and releasing original music in Japan, the girl group is becoming increasingly in-demand internationally and the quintet wanted to make sure their time at KCON 2018 New York was used well.
The ladies delivered one of the biggest surprises of the festival when they performed a half-English version of their hit single "Bad Boy" on the KCON stage, a major nod to their growing overseas fanbase. Backstage at the fest, Irene, Seulgi, Wendy, Joy and Yeri spoke to Fuse about how the performance came together, where it's signaling their future music and more.
