Funny / Red Velvet

Get comfortable children, we're going to be here for a while.

GENERAL

• The sheer amount of derp pics Wendy has circulating on the Internet. Here's◊ just a few from her debut days.
  • Also, her voice impersonations.
  • Almost everytime she speaks English, as seen in the clip above, having to repeat what she just said in a Korean accent to be understood:
  Wendy: I'll sing a bit of "What a wonderful world".
  MC: Sorry, could you repeat that?
  Wendy: WUAT-A-WON-DO-PUL-WOL-DU!.
• This clip.
• Some of Seulgi's best mishaps:
  • the members once organized a surprise birthday party for her. When she came home to find all the lights turned off, she thought it was Earth Day.
  • "Unnie, what is our flight class in the plane tomorrow? Is it oconomy?"^note economy Seul, economy
  • Thinking only Korea has Valentine's Day.
  • Wishing happy birthday to Yooa of Oh My Girl... and signing herself as Moonbyul of Mamamoo.
• Joy's iconic UFO replies.
  • Also, her iconic photocard wars with Yeri.
• Sunny, of Girls' Generation, prank calling the girls at a radio show.
• Carpool Karaoke with Red Velvet. How Irene managed not to laugh while fimling this is beyond me.
• Alas, to no one's surprise, Irene exposed herself.^note Links to the episodes here and here
  Irene: "I really like butts."
  • Joy's war cry and the members exposing Seulgi's habit of mispronouncing things.
• Yeri trying to explain why one should listen to "Ice Cream Cake", a song with quite suggestive lyrics, and her unnies' reactions.
• They got to share the stage with none other than Girls Generation for an encore. The members were their usual excitable selves and had fun along with their seniors, but Irene especially looks like she's on a sugar high and it's glorious.
• This whole cut is one funny moment after the other. For instance, a gem delivered as Wendy was assigning group awards:
  Wendy: To Yeri, I award "Smile Award"
  Joy: *Snickering* "Filthy Award"
  Yeri: OH, YOU WAIT FOR YOUR TURN!
• The karaoke battle: Seulgi-Wendy-Joy^note a.k.a the vocal line vs. Irene-Yeri. Let's just say one of the two teams ends up having a massive case of Heroic BSoD.
  • Seulgi running around gushing "We are singers!" might count as well.
• The entire sleeping habits bit and Joy wondering if a comment full of praises for the group comes form her father in this radio show. Also this:
  MC: There are situations where you're in the wrong spot or where you have to move out of the way quickly...
  Wendy: Yeah.
  MC: ... or where you bump into each other
  Wendy: Yeah.
  MC: Right?
  Wendy: That's right.
  MC: Who can't find their own spot quickly?
  Wendy: That's right, it's me.
• Radio DJs Wendy, Joy, and Yeri attempting to reinterpret their songs with various imitations and styles. Hilarity Ensues.
  • Later they have to draw a few listeners based on the descriptions they sent in, and the results are... questionable.
• Almost all, but especially the last 40 minutes of this radio show, with Yeri and Joy providing most of the hilarity. In a mere few minutes they completely reveal Seulgi's sleeping habits, which become a Running Gag throughout the broadcast. "Joy is savage" is a total understatement.
  • The older members'reactions are amusing themselves: you have poor Seulgi sputtering in complete shock while Wendy tries (and fails) to protect her as best as she can against the maknaes' combined exposure. Irene, on the other hand, just laughs.
• The whole speed quiz segment in this radio show, especially Seulgi and Yeri "arguing".
• This, especially the real name roll call, the DJ asking them if they feel jealous of Girls' Generation for winning at a music show and the speed quiz.
  • Seulgi's ultimate late response.
• Pretty much all of the times they've been on Weekly Idol definitely count, most notably:
  • In their first appearance, being forced to repeat the "Booyah!" part in "Happiness" during the Random Play Dance.
  • Their second time on the show, all of it. Special mention has to go to Irene for cementing her status as "Mother Bae" and nailing the flexibility contest. And her aegyo. Just... just her aegyo.
    • From the same episode, Seulgi trying to do a split.
  • "One Of These Nights" era: battling for meat and "Dumb Dumb" at 2x speed.
• Taking selfies at ISAC ^note Idol Star Athletics Championships has never been this adorable probably.
  • They got bored and decided to play a game: untying each other's shoelaces.
• All of their "One Of These Nights" MV commentary, especially their reaction to Wendy's poodle hair and apparent lack of eyebrows.
  Wendy: Why?! Why are you laughing if it's cute?!
  • Their second time around Wendy turns into a preacher. Don't ask.
• In this radio show Wendy makes an appeal to Beyoncé and Ariana Grande for, respectively, Seulgi and Yeri.
• Wendy dropping the rap verse of the century. Made even funnier by the amazed reactions of all the other idols.
• Anytime Wendy is called "no-jam" in this radio show with Joy. And, when she has to explain what she likes about Joy, she stutters so bad she blames her Korean, only for Joy to say that she always does that when she's in a difficult position.
  • Wendy and Joy reeading the players' names of Laos' national football team.
  • Joy mentions how she wasn't recognized when she went out by herself once and Wendy says it's because she didn't have eyebrows^note Had no make-up on. Cue Joy yelling at her.
    • On the same topic, Joy says she usually turns a bit green or yellow when she's not feeling well, which prompts Wendy to reveal one of her nicknames during their trainee days: Soolek
• This encore of One Of These Nights, sung with... interesting lyrics.
• Pretty much all the members are awful at acting cute when asked to. It shows.
  Youtube Comment: "Should be titled 'Wendy and the Times She Couldn't Even'"
• Irene being startled by almost anything.
• This, all of it, courtesy of Joy flirting with Seulgi. It just escalates from there.
• Their first "Knowing Bros." episode is considered legendary. Their second time on the show was an equally crowning EPISODE of funny.
• Their "Yang&Nam Show" episode has many from beginning to end. For example, Irene and Joy shrieking in fear when one of the hosts accidentally scares them in greeting.
  • The reacreation dance, all of it, but especially the constipation bit.
  • "LET'S GO EAT HAMBURGERS!"
  "Yeah, man!"
  "Ye~"
  • The variety skits: Wendy as a mom, Joy as a dog owner, Irene and Seulgi as food bloggers.
• Back when she was in elementary school Yeri, during a test, was so nervous that she mispelled her own name to "Kim Myemim". An old classmate of hers posted something about it, and both fans and her own members won't stop teasing her about it.
  • "Don't call me Myemim people! I'm shy... I wanna hide..."^note They are still calling her that
• Wendy and Yeri against Irene and Seulgi in "Let's have fun with Red Velvet!" Honestly, the title is pretty self explanatory.
  • The team names themselves, respectively Team Whoooo~ and Team Ahaaaa~
  • Irene and Seulgi, asked to dance to complete a mission, end up pretending to be two strangers meeting in a club.
  • Team Whoooo~ nailing the game without knowing the rules. Heck, Yeri being an absolute MVP in general: the producers even have to change the rules because she finishes the first round too quickly.
  • At one point Seulgi picks the mission "Return to the starting point" just as she's barely one step away from completing her lap. Cue Irene advancing menacingly towards her.
    • Seulgi having to swap teams, leaving Irene alone, and Irene kneeing her in retaliation.
• Their "Singderella" episode, with Irene (the best player of her team and Born Lucky in general) and her severe mood swings: hyper if she gets to eat, emotionless if she doesn't.
  MC: (when Irene is hesitant to sing): At which point did you get tired?
  Irene: Ah... the briskets...
  • Seulgi calls her father, tasked to complete the lyrics of a song in 30 seconds, and he playfully messes with her.
• Many moments from their first Insta Live. Like Wendy spending a good five minutes drawing a "We're in Mexico" sign only to realise she has to mirror it.
  • This conversation:
  Wendy: You shouldn't whistle at night
  Yeri: Why not?
  W: Tigers will come and get you
  Y: *biggest WTF face*
  W: Sorry
  • "How about some ice water~"
  • Irene almost barreling into Yeri with her chair and Seulgi being hyper in the background.
• The dance relay match. "Hey mamamamaya..."
• Hyper Velvet battling against poor internet connection. The "Spirited Away" bit is comedy gold.
• All of this video. When the girls say they are noisy in the waiting room, they mean it.

• Red Velvet's melon radio during Red Flavor era. Both episodes have moments in abundance. Just a highlight from the first one.
  • From ep. 1, the incident during the MV filming. Part of Seulgi's hair extensions flew near Irene, who kicked it over to Yeri causing her to scream and run away.
    • The fruit song.
    • The girls attempting to sound like males and confessing to themselves, followed by the aegyo conversation in which Yeri unexplicably sounds like a grandma.
    • They sing songs according to different situations, from pretending to have climbed a mountain to seeing a topless guy on the street.
  • Ep. 2 has the girls making juice for fans. With their voices. Hilarity Ensues.
  "I'M A SIX YEARS OLD GINSENG!"
• Near the end of the first day of their concert, all the girls were very emotional while singing "Candy", a sweet ballad that got both them and the fans choked up. The next song on the set list? Happiness. Poor Seulgi's voice was still shaky at the "Sometimes~".
  • The girls actually doing the Shark Family Song. Even better, the fans are super into it.
  • Yeri's answer to the fans that are shouting they don't want the concert to end:
    Joy: They say they won't go home.
    Yeri: Okay, but I will.
    • Also, while they're mentioning everyone who helped organize the event, she thanks SM Entertainment and then chuckles about it.
  • Day 2 sees "Happiness" placed before "Candy" on the set list.
    • Girls' Generation was in the audience and...
  Yeri: Our Girls' Generation unnies came today. (all the fans turn around to spot them in the audience) Look at us, not them!
  • Day 3, Seulgi pretending to look for sweet potatoes in a grill prop.
    • Even after crying Yeri is a gold mine of one-liners. She says Irene looked like a witch while popping up behind her and Joy during "Happily Ever After".
• Here, the entire discussion about who's the biggest "fashion terrorist" and Joy revealing she's so scared of ghosts she took all the mirrors out of her and Yeri's room.
  • Seulgi comments on how peaceful she and Wendy are in their room and the latter gives a meaningful expression. Then they start talking about the way they "argue".
• A lot of moments from their respective birthday parties:
  • Joy and Yeri force themselves to laugh at anything Seulgi says at her party to make her happy. Also, the story of how her and Wendy once washed their hair together and the blue of Wendy's dye started staining the shower, shocking Seulgi.
    • The stories on how Seulgi accidentally messes with people.
  • Wendy's party with Yeri making fun of Seulgi's hosting abilities and the members explaining Wendy's sleeping habits.
  • The story of Red Velvet vs. Chanel the cat from Joy's birthday party is simply hysterical.
    • The edits are here.
• Here, Wendy casually implying Joy suffered of constipation after eating too much persimmon and the entire discussion about sharing socks.
  • Red Team vs. Velvet Team. Especially Yeri's "dee-do-do-do~" whenever Irene and Wendy get questions about her wrong.
  • Irene's 9 seconds long fit of laughter when Velvet Team can't get the question "When does Irene feel most beautiful?" right and the actual reason they can't guess correctly: Irene changed her usual answer before the game.
  "This is competition."
  • Wendy's "Yaa~"
• Their appearance on NCT's Night Night, mainly because they're all really comfortable talking ang goofing around.
  • The NG story from when they filmed the music video for "Peek-A-Boo".
  • Wendy randomly dancing the Backpack Kid move after Seulgi says it's also called "Dance that gets you a lover".

  • "Breaking News: Someone has died in Busan from Seulgi's beauty."
    • "I'm so sorry!"
  • Irene accidentally hits Yeri's eye while they're leaving the studio.
• Wendy's failed attempts at bottle flipping during ISAC 2018 end up with every Reveluv in the stadium chanting her name to give her strength.
  • The dance covers. Yeri busts the moves of "As If It's Your Last" out of nowhere and, later, Nayeon randomly shows up to teach them "Heart Shaker" and "Likey".
  • "The Mystery of Seulgi's Missing Phone (feat. Twice)
• The story of Wendy's squid mask.
• The members trying to say hello to the audience during one of the first stops of "Red Room" in Japan. They go "Hello~" all in chorus... and promptly fall silent because they forget the rest of their Japanese introduction. Twice.
• Irene meme-ing at Dream Concert 2018.
• Wendy realises she may have just accidentally spoiled a summer comeback. Panic ensues.
• The sheer randomness of this Instagram Live.
  • Wendy, worried about her proportions, asks Yeri and Seulgi to film her from her thighs up. They do that exactly.
  • "Joy, they want you to join this, but you don't have to." - Wendy Son, Joy's self-proclaimed biggest fan.
  • Joy and Wendy continuously arguing about who's the one between them that smells. Joy says it's Wendy's hair, Wendy says it's Joy's philtrum. "Let's keep it pretty" indeed.
  • Yeri's random cover of Blackpink's DDU-DU DDU-DU. And Irene using her as the fennec fox Jennie holds in the video.
  • Yeri and Joy manhandling Irene around to convince her to show herself.
  • This:
  Yeri: Which songs do you want to hear at the concert?
  Wendy: Can we ask that after we've finalized the list?
  Yeri: (Beat) We'll edit this.
• During the Redmare concert in Newark, a couple of lines into Rookie, Seulgi snatches her own wig. Hilarity Ensues.
• Make no mistake, Irene will stab her own group's maknae and self-professed daughter for a chocolate cookie.
• Irene's ''Amor Fati'' dance and the inevitable memes.
• Luvies brought up all of Wendy's past achievements in school, sports and the arts and her incredibly humble, sweet character despite her current fame, and came to the conclusion that if she were a fictional character, she'd probably be hated.
• All they had to do was collect their trophy and leave the stage...
• Wendy, the "Dance God, Dance King".
• Irene, Seulgi and Joy's chaotic Insta-Live. Note that they call themselves the "Fellowship of Deep Thinkers" *insert Irene 'cackling'*.
  • This exchange:
  Seulgi: I would squash crickets... Uh... Am I allowed to say this? I gave them as food.
  Joy: *cracks up* "Am I allowed to say this?" *pretending to be angry* WHY?! Why did you squash those crickets?!
  Seulgi: *actually distressed* No! To feed my chick!
  • "This is no-jam, no-jam. Tsk, tsk. Talk about how pretty I am, then it will become funny." - Kim Yerim.
  • The game they start playing right after, with Irene just not getting the shoulder movement she has to do, and the other two getting progressively confused in the process.
    • The punishment for who loses the round (the Indian Bap, a series of harmless slaps on the back) to which Joy adds a bonus: an elbow to the butt.
    Irene: YAH! "Oh yeah~ bonus?" In your dreams!
    • The other game, in which they have to come up with nonsensical words, is equally funny.
  • "Boobs".
  • Joy's growing exasperation at Wendy being late and her ultimate prank: hiding under the food cart and jumping Wendy when she arrives.
  Wendy: *looking at Joy's butt poking out from under the cart* That looks like Sooyoung's butt...
• No context needed.
• When they went to North Korea as ambassadors, they had to perform Bad Boy, which has a dance move that requires to mimick shooting a shotgun. Seulgi was adamant on changing the move, for obvious reasons, but in the end was so nervous about it that she fumbled her gestures and sent the audience a love bullet. They loved it, luckily.
  • The North Korean audience clapping at Irene breathing, which to be fair, isn't too different from what happens when the girls perform in their homeland.^note For context, the North Korean public was mostly emotionless for basically every performance, as outward displays of emotion are strongly frowned upon unless they're related to political events. They still value hard work above all else, which is why they saw fit to clap their hearts out at the girls being visibly out of breath.
• When Irene and Seulgi were performing for their subunit, the maknaes visited them at music shows. When it was almost time to perform, Irene had to wait for Yeri to finish getting her makeup fixed because she was getting ready for a dinner reservation.

V LIVE

Any appearence they make is a chock-full of these, but the most notable examples are:

• Episode 1: Wendy being an Easily Impressed MC and the members calling Irene "old person" because of her taste in ice cream.
  • Red Team vs. Velvet Team, just all of it. Especially Irene killing it at the sit-ups competition while Yeri gets assaulted by Joy.
  Joy: I suddenly had the urge to kiss.

  • The unnies trolling Yeri and not letting her do the group's outro.

  Joy: Then take me away, I just like him so much.
  • Joy and Yeri imitating the way Wendy talks and Wendy promptly exaggerating any gesture she makes.
• Red Velvet's Timeout. THERE ARE NO WORDS.

    • "Yeri"^note Wendy gets a cold and uses her weirdly nasally voice to its full potential;
• The live for the release of "Rookie" where the girls attempt to give some spoilers, only to realize they have to make anticipate the fans more. In the end they just start to talk like the sloths from Zootopia, with Seulgi nearly dying of laughter in the process.
• The entire discussion about how they saved one another in their contacts: you have Joy, Seulgi, and Yeri who used rather normal monikers. Then there're Wendy, who either came up with puns or cheesy names, and Irene, who simply named each member "Poo Puppy" with a different emoticon to distinguish them. Joy losing it at the word "fart".

  • The entire Yeriana bit.

  Comment: When will Seulgi come back from the restroom?
• Red Velvet X EATING SHOW. Almost every moments from half an hour onwards. The viewers begin to wonder if they put something in their colas.
  • Wendy tells the story of how she can't eat Jokbal (pig's feet) because the first time she tried it Seulgi traumatized by relining the bones like a dinosaur's.
  • Irene, Joy and Yeri reapplying their make-up while they try to hide from the cameras, which end up taking picturesque shots of the food and the ceiling while Seulgi and Wendy happily pose and eat.

  Yeri: Unnie, why did you pick this [watermelon]?
  Irene: Uuh~
  RV members: Are you going to rap?
  • The girls happily eat their dessert while Joy's picked the only pie she doesn't like. It has Yeri in stitches.
  • The cute videos for fans. After Wendy's, whose first attempt fails miserably, someone mentions she's drank all her cola.
  • The chic goodbyes. Joy cracks up the whole time, Yeri laughs at the end, Irene is super chic, Seulgi's too nice and Wendy is just herself.
• While Seulgi and Irene's Lie V was full of heartwarming moments as they recalled some stories about their trainee days, the full group broadcast is rowdy, to say the least.

  • Irene's "madame from the bath-house" pajamas and Yeri's "I usually don't wear anything [to sleep] these days..." which results in Joy slapping her butt.
  • "You always say you're the biggest fan! You said that last time for Ariana Grande!"
• The game Irene and Yerim play here. If the chaos the game itself is won't make you laugh, their laughter will.
  • Joy casually brushing her teeth in the background.
• Seulgi, Wendy and Yeri do a live in Japan, which basically amounts to 42 minutes of randomness.
  • Yeri's desperate search for a spoon to eat her soup, to which Seulgi suggest she just drinks it out of a fancy wine glass.

  • Wendy called her plushie "Manen" (short for 10,000 Yen, the amount she spent on it)^note About 91 USD. No wonder she's attached to it.

  • Seulgi's "Nighty night"^note ko ko nenne... so much confusion.
    • Wendy mishears it as "Smelling your nose", sounds fair. Cue Yeri cracking up.
• "Power Up comeback live". It's pretty much a given that when they go on V-App it turns into a mess.
  • Irene falling continuously from her chair for no apparent reason.
  • They have to select different flavoured lemonades for each other and explain why. All the members pick nice reasons... except Wendy, who recommends a kiwi-based drink for Joy to help with constipation.
  Joy: How do you know that?! Did you see me go to the toilet today?!
  Wendy: I didn't so that's why I said that.
  • Wendy has hands like a guy's apparently.
  • The water-gun game. Or, Red Velvet spraying water everywhere. To name the highlights:
    • Irene's laughing fit when she spots the gun that has a backpack included and the stuttering that ensues.
    • Joy, despite her gun not working, is still a master photobomb. Later, Seulgi and Wendy do the same thing to her.
    Wendy: Joy, if it doesn't work, just put the water in your mouth and squirt it.
    • Yeri wetting the director's pants and Wendy leaving for the army.
