Red Velvet to premiere 'Surfin' Boy' at fan-con ahead of Aug. 3 mini-album drop
Red Velvet's fan concert runs July 31–Aug. 2 in Seoul. Joy wrote the title track solo, and the Aug. 2 finale streams live on Beyond Live and Weverse.
Red Velvet will debut Surfin' Boy at their fan concert before the song even drops.
The group's '2026 Red Velvet FAN-CON <A Day in Red & Velvet>' runs July 31 through August 2 at Korea University Hwajung Gymnasium in Seoul. The August 2 finale broadcasts simultaneously on Beyond Live and Weverse for global fans.
The fan concert pulls double duty as the first public stage for Surfin' Boy, the title track from summer mini-album Velvet Summer, which releases August 3. Joy wrote the lyrics solo—the only member credit confirmed across sources. The track is a dance song built on a refreshing sound and cool, dreamy vocal harmony. Lyrically, it looks back on a hot summer shared with someone precious and the new memories made along the way.
For the choreography, the chorus pairs the Hawaiian hand gesture "shaka" with movements meant to evoke gentle waves. (These details come straight from the official description.)
On August 3 at 5 PM KST, Red Velvet will run a countdown live on their YouTube and TikTok accounts.
