Red Velvet is one of the most popular, talented, and versatile K-pop groups from the third generation. Ever since their debut in 2014, and a re-debut in 2015, fans have come to love the quintet for their music releases and chemistry.
Main vocalist Wendy has been in the K-pop game for a while now and fans are curious on how much has the singer made since her debut.
According to sources, Wendy has an estimated net worth of $4 million USD this 2024. Since the idol is highly active in the K-pop industry, and Red Velvet is about to release their much-anticipated comeback, an increase in her net worth is to be expected.
Wendy was part of SM Entertainment's pre-debut trainees called "SM Rookies." In March 2014, she was introduced as one of the lineup's members.
Eventually, she made her debut with Red Velvet on August 1, 2014, and again on March 11, 2015, when maknae Yeri joined the group.
When it comes to her net worth, Wendy makes an income heavily due to her activities with the group. Red Velvet is one of third-gen's best, meaning, they are also active in releasing music, doing promotions, making social media updates, and generating fan engagement.
The group has continuously demonstrated their solid fanbase power, given their album sales, and sold-out concerts. Wendy is also known as the group's main vocalist, which means that she is also active in releasing solo projects or collabs with other artists.
Wendy has lent her voice to SM Station project songs such as "Spring Love," "Sound of Your Heart, "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas," "Doll," "The Little Match Girl," "One Summer," Written In The Stars," and 'Time After Time."
The idol has also collaborated with several artists such as Eric Nam, Super Junior Yesung, BoA, SHINee Taemin, EXO Suho, and even singer-songwriter John Legend.
On April 5, 2021, Wendy officially debuted as a solo artist with her first mini album "Like Water," and its title track of the same name. Additionally, "When This Rain Stops" served as the album's second title track.
This career path followed through on March 12, 2024, when Wendy released her second mini album "Wish You Hell."
Aside from being a Red Velvet member and a soloist, Wendy also debuted with the supergroup GOT The Beat, which is a part of SM Entertainment's Girls On Top project.
The group, consisting of Wendy, Seulgi, BoA, Girls' Generation Taeyeon and Hyoyeon, aespa Karina and Winter, debuted with digital single "Step Back" on January 3, 2022. On January 16, 2023, GOT The Beat released their first mini album "Stamp On It."
Aside from her music activities, Wendy also has endorsement deals with brands such as Pond's, Red Cross, Etude House, Pandora, and more.
