Fans saw all five members of Red Velvet on stage for the first time since winter of 2019.
During SMTOWN's online concert 'Culture Humanity', the 5-member girl group appeared on the stage together for the first time in over a year. Due to Wendy's injury in 2019 and Irene's behavior controversy in 2020, Red Velvet had taken an unofficial hiatus, unable to promote together as five members.
On an online community forum, netizens welcomed the girls and expressed how much they missed this moment. There were many messages for Wendy, with comments such as: "The song 'Psycho' NEEDS Wendy...she's 50% of the song", "So good to see you Wendy, you've recovered well, I hope T_T", "I missed you so much Wendy T_T".
Certain commenters expressed their discomfort at seeing Irene, but there were others that embraced all five members, with reactions such as: "Finally, a 5cho T_T", "Love Irene", "I really, really, just wanted to see 'Psycho' with all five members", "Red Velvet needs all five members!".

Seeing them perform psycho as 5 again is the best thing ever. I'm glad to see Wendy on stage.
