Red Velvet's Wendy to release solo album 'Like Water' in April

ReVeluvs, rejoice! Red Velvet's Wendy has been working on a solo album and its release date is much closer than you think. 

On 10 March, SM Entertainment confirmed in a statement to Naver News that the singer will be making her long-awaited debut as a solo artist with the project this April. The news comes just a couple of months after Wendy made her first appearance alongside her Red Velvet bandmates after being absent for a year at the SMTOWN LIVE "Cultural Humanity" concert on New Year's Day. 

On the same day, Wendy took to Red Velvet's official Twitter page to share the news with her fans and express her excitement about the project. She wrote: "As it is my first solo album that is so precious to me, I will work harder..."
