THIS female idol's LIFE's GOAL is not to become a doctor, lawyer, or engineer, but to dedicate herself as a Red Velvet fan if she doesn't debut as a girl group member!
On December 23, the 414th episode of JTBC's entertainment show, "Knowing Bros," has been aired featuring Starship Entertainment artists.
The 2023 year-end ceremony of the program was attended by MONSTA X Shownu, Jeong Sewoon, CRAVITY Hyeongjun & Minhee as well as IVE Rei, Liz and Leeseo.
Rei Confesses Dream to Become Dedicated ReVeluv If She Didn't Debut in IVE
During the broadcast, Rei, a member of the famous girl group IVE was asked if she had ever thought about having another job.
As a response, Rei confessed:
"I originally had a life goal."
Rather than becoming high-paying jobs like doctor, engineer or lawyer, Rei surprised the MCs after confessing:
"I'm a fan of Red Velvet sunbaenim. I want to join their fan club and do fan activities. When an idol makes a comeback, we often do a lot of pre-recording shows. So I want to apply for an audience, go and cheer for them."

IVE Delivers Warm Christmas to DIVEs With Special Christmas Video
In a different news, "MZ Wannabe Icon" IVE, the group to which Rei belongs delivered a message for a warm Christmas.
As a Christmas gift to DIVEs (fandom), Starship Entertainment released a special Christmas video called, "Payback | Dear.Dive" on its official YouTube channel on the afternoon of December 24.
"Payback" is a song from "I'VE MINE," which was released in October, and was presented as a special video with a lot of year-end atmosphere for the fandom this Christmas.
In a warm and cozy atmosphere, IVE also delivered a Christmas message, 'Dear.DIVE.' Jang Wonyoung wrote a letter and hung it up on the tree, while Rei held up a gift box and smiled.
Liz looked playful, holding a teddy bear and giving it a kiss, and the youngest Leeseo drew attention by making a pat-down with Jang Wonyoung to the lyrics, "So don't hurt me carelessly."
Gaeul wore a headband decorated with a snowman doll and transformed into a cute Rudolph, and lastly, An Yujin made viewers smile with cute eyes and playful looks like a puppy waiting for snow.
As the video content continued, the members who held a Christmas party also shared their handwritten messages, wishing for a more warm year together with their fans.
Meanwhile, IVE has imprinted its presence in 2023 as a "fourth generation representative group," and will continue its influence by meeting with fans through the first episode of its own content "1,2,3 IVE" at 11 p.m. on January 1, 2024.
