Red Velvet addresses rumors about being a rotational group

Red Velvet is causing quite the commotion. With the seemingly random addition of their fifth member Yeri, Red Velvet is the center of attention with rumors floating around. While some speculate that Red Velvet will be gaining even more members in the future, others wonder if Red Velvet is a rotational group in which members are regularly swapped out for other trainees from S.M.ROOKIES.

\'Xsports News\' held an interview with the rookie girl group in their \'M! Countdown\' waiting room to discuss Yeri\'s addition and to clarify the rumors. 

When asked how she felt about joining the group, Yeri said, "I knew [the members] originally very well; they\'re unnies with whom I trained. The unnies really take care of me very well so I\'m thankful." 

Then the unnies themselves were asked how they felt when they first heard about the news of a new member. Seulgi answered, "Ever since we were little, Yeri and I played and talked a lot. I know about Yeri\'s merits so when I heard the news, I thought, \'Looks like our group color is getting an upgrade.\' We\'re the quiet type, but now it feels like we are fresher. I like that a fun and bubbly friend joined us." 

When the interviewer mentioned that Joy was no longer the maknae of the group, Joy replied, "Yeri is younger than me in age, but she\'s my sunbae as a trainee so she took good care of me. Since Yeri came into the group, it\'s been more fun. Now that I\'m 20 years old, I wonder if I can show a more diverse image rather than a cute image later. Because Yeri joined the team, I think things have become better." 

Finally, the interviewer asked if there would be anymore changes to the group. Red Velvet replied, "There were a lot of theories. There was a theory that because there was a six-piece cake in our MV that we would have six members; there was even talk that we would have 12 members. But there will be no more changes." 

At this, the interviewer asked, "Will you be moving onward as five members like this?" to which Red Velvet re-affirmed, "Yes." 

This news will come to many as a huge relief! Say hello to the new and improved Red Velvet, folks. Looks like the five members are here to stay.

I believe they will still add new members. Just see how many girls in happiness mv lol

As reassured as I want to be, we have all seen that artists and their companies have often had differing opinions...

Thank God. But this is SM we\'re talking about, you\'ll never know ;)

Sure I believe what they\'re saying but ... there\'s something in my feeling that tells me there is something gonna happen surprisingly and shockingly

It\'s SM we\'re talking about so you never know 

I want to believe them when they say no more changes, I do. 

OT5 <3 but why do i still have a feeling sm is gonna try something shifty :/

well thats a relief phew. But SM we got our eyes on you, don\'t fucking screw them up == 

Well, I hope this is true.. I just gain my interest for Red Velvet and I\'ll be really sad if they were rotational group because I want Red Velvet members stay like this permanently.

they probably don\'t know themselves if more members will be added since it\'s not their choice anyways

after the team get popular SM don\'t add any members same with suju they added kyuhyun when suju was still in the beginning .

I think they will constantly add new member...until lami 16 year old..

Woe so she trained longer yet she missed out on debuting with the group I wonder why. She look like a good fit. I\'m not upset at all with the lineup change. Maybe they had plans for yeri but decided to scrape that plan. So adding her to red velvet was ideal? Just curious

There are a lot of trainees that train longer than idols that get to debut. Some trainees never debut and they watch all of the hoobaes debut before them. It\'s really quite sad

This is SM we\'re talking about. Take everything with a grain of salt guys. 

If it was like that, I wish Yeri was with them at debut... 

Interesting. Why even bother with debuting with just the four of them when Yeri was a trainee at the time then?
