Red Velvet member Wendy is reportedly gearing up to return to her DJ role on the radio program Young Street. She previously worked in the position for two years. Currently, former IZ*ONE member Kwon Eunbi is greeting listeners, but she is set to resign soon. If Wendy confirms, she will return to the program after a year.

On August 2, Korean media outlet TV Daily reported that Wendy might return to SBS Power FM’s radio program Young Street. According to the report, a representative from the production hinted at her potential return to the DJ position. In response to earlier reports, an SBS representative commented that the K-pop idol is still under discussion for her return to Young Street.

Earlier this week, Kwon Eunbi announced her forthcoming exit from the show due to her busy schedule. She has been holding the position since Wendy left. The former IZ*ONE member is now scheduled to host her last broadcast on August 4.

Wendy joined Young Street as a DJ in 2021 and continued to greet listeners for two years, finally leaving the position in July 2023. Although SBS Power FM has yet to confirm her return, the reports have created much anticipation.

Following Kwon Eunbi’s departure, KARA’s Gyuri will join the program as a special DJ from August 5 to 11. Then, from the week of August 12 to 18, Girls’ Generation’s Hyoyeon will join for a special broadcast.
