When it comes to professionalism on stage, Red Velvet’s Joy never fails to amaze her fans. The K-pop idol fell victim to wardrobe malfunctions many times while performing. However, one particular clip went viral for her way of handling the situation, which left a lasting impression. 

Back in April 2023, Red Velvet kickstarted their 4th concert tour R to V in Seoul, setting the stage on fire with electrifying performances of their hit songs. Alongside fellow bandmates Irene, Seulgi, Wendy, and Yeri, Joy also dazzled in an all-black fit. 

The wardrobe malfunction happened during the group’s Psycho performance. Joy was wearing see-through gloves, which got caught in her necklace, preventing her from moving her left hand. However, being the professional she is, the K-pop idol didn’t bat an eye. She quickly took off the gloves and threw them aside, all while still performing her part. 

Moreover, she made it look so professional that the whole thing looked like a part of the song’s choreography. Needless to say, the clip immediately went viral online and the internet was obsessed with Joy’s iconic way of handling the situation on stage.
