With such a sales figure, this means that "The ReVe Festival 2022 - Feel My Rhythm" has become the five-member group's highest pre-order sales figure since their debut back in August 2014.
This also made them earn the title of "half-million seller," and eligible for the first time in their career to receive a double platinum certification for albums by the Korean Music Content Association.

In particular, the title track "Feel My Rhythm" is a pop dance song that features a delicate and elegant string melody, strong trap beat, and the vocal harmony of members. The song also makes use of a sample Johann Sebastian Bach's "Air on the G String."
In addition, the music video for "Feel My Rhythm" is also said to be inspired by "Air on the G String," and was produced in the form of an opera in homage to a famous painting. With that, Red Velvet is expected to show a unique and charming new concept with their comeback.
