Red Velvet's Irene launches solo career with new single Like A Flower

Red Velvet's leader Irene has made her solo debut with the mini-album "Like A Flower." She is the fourth member of the group to release solo music, following Wendy, Joy, and Seulgi. The mini-album includes a music video for the title track, where Irene is seen recording a girl giving flowers. The song features themes of personal growth and compassion. Irene's debut comes after Red Velvet's last group release in June 2024. The group celebrated their 10th anniversary earlier this year with a special version of their mini-album, including a new song for fans.
