When MC JaeJae asked Joy, "Is there a moment when each member said, 'I was really awesome at this time?"
The "Hello" singer cited the time when she was active in "Peek-A-Boo." JaeJae then showed the group Joy's photo wearing her legendary rainbow dress on stage.
In particular, Joy's viral era happened when Red Velvet released their second studio album, "Perfect Velvet," and its title track, "Peak-A-Boo."

As the netizen don't know her name, Joy gained the nickname "K-pop Girl in the Rainbow Dress." and eventually, it spread throughout the K-pop community.
When Joy saw her photo, she was shocked and exclaimed, "Oh my, what's with that armpit?" drawing laughter.
The idol then suddenly talked about her pose exposing her flawless armpit saying, "But do you know what? If you raise your armpit, the picture comes out much better."
JaeJae, who was flustered by what she heard, asked Joy, "Why are you saying that all of a sudden?"
Joy then jokingly responded, "I think that kind of charm comes out of my armpits. Pheromones," adding, "One of the ways to appeal is to pretend to tie your hair and (raise your armpit)."
Seulgi, who was also surprised, said, "Does your armpit show your charm?" Joy then shook his head, saying, "Believe it or not," drawing more laughter.
Meanwhile, Red Velvet's new mini-album "Queendom" will be released on the 16th. "Queendom" contains the lyrics that we are all "Queen" of our lives and that we shine more beautifully together.
