RED VELVET’S Yeri joins new agency; paves new way for solo activities

Red Velvet’s youngest member Yeri has recently joined hands with a new entertainment agency after she made the decision to not renew her expiring contract with her former agency. Her new management agency recently released a statement regarding the addition, leaving fans buzzing with excitement over the news.
As reported by Allkpop, Yeri’s new agency issued a statement regarding the artist joining their agency. They shared that "We are delighted to work alongside our new artist Kim Ye Rim, who has conducted her activities both in Korea and overseas. We will support her to our fullest capabilities so that the experience she gained thus far on the global stage can be reflected in her acting."
Her new management agency, Blitzway Entertainment, also took to their social media accounts to launch their latest artist through new concept photographs. The photos exude a different side of Yeri and are meant to show a new side of the idol.

Her new agency houses some of the most popular names in the acting industry such as Go Doo Shim, Joo Ji Hoon, In Kyo Jin, Jung Ryeo Won, So Yi Hyun, Moon Chae Won, Chun Woo Hee, Park Ha Sun, Yoon Park, Woo Do Hwan, Kwak Dong Yeon, and more.
Red Velvet’s Yeri has been a popular force to reckon with ever since her debut in the industry alongside Red Velvet in 2015. The group had initially debuted a year earlier with only four members; Irene. Joy, Wendy, and Seulgi. Yeri was the fifth addition who joined with the release of their first EP, ‘Ice Cream Cake.’
The title song as well as the EP both became extremely popular amongst the masses and helped the group solidify their mark on the Korean music industry. Currently even though members Yeri and Wendy have left their previous agencies, they will still be promoting as a group whenever there is a requirement.
The idol left her previous company only recently when her official contract expired in April 2025.
