How do you keep growing and coming back from that? I'm proud and my nose is high. Thank you for showing us the best concert with respect and emotion.' Joy shared a video of Wendy in tears, saying, 'Until the day I can also do a dinner show as an artist who gives good influence and good energy to everyone, I will make sure Wendy of Red Velvet becomes that artist. Thank you so much,' and supported Wendy with flowers and songs when she returned to the dressing room.
