JTBC's upcoming new music talk show marks the official comeback of Red Velvet's Wendy in the entertainment industry of South Korea. Wendy started taking a break from activities in December 2019 when she fell from the stage during rehearsals for her solo performance for 2019 SBS Gayo Daejeon on Dec. 25 and had serious injuries. According to SM Entertainment, Red Velvet's Wendy sustained injuries to her face and fractures in her wrist and pelvis.

Because of the accident, Red Velvet did not perform at the 2019 SBS Gayo Daejeon and held their La Rouge concerts in Japan without Wendy.
