Park Soo-young (born September 3, 1996),[1][5] commonly known by her stage name Joy, is a South Korean singer and entertainer. She is a member of K-pop girl group Red Velvet.[6]

Early life

As a child, Joy was heavily interested in trot music.[7] In grade school, she performed K-rock band Cherry Filter's Ori Nalda (Korean RR, "Flying Duck") which began her aspiration to become a singer.[8] In 2012, she auditioned and was cast by S.M. Entertainment at the S.M. Global Audition in Seoul. While training for two years, she was given a stage name "Joy" by a vocal coach to represent her usual cheerful disposition (derived from its literal English meaning).[1]

Since debut, Red Velvet has experienced notable success and recognition.[11][12][13] After attaining three new artist awards in 2014,[14][15] their first mini album Ice Cream Cake would go on to become the best selling album by a girl group in South Korea on the Hanteo Chart for the first half of 2015.[16] A few months later, their full-length album The Red topped the Billboard World Albums Chart.[17] The group has garnered over 160,000 album sales and 3.7 million downloads according to Gaon,[18] and won sixteen music show awards (from Show! Music Core, Inkigayo, Show Champion, M! Countdown, The Show and Music Bank), as well as ceremony accolades such as Best Dance – Female, Best Dance Performance – Female Group and 2016 Hot Performance of the Year.[19][20]

On December 29, 2015, Joy shared a win with Yook for the Best Couple Award and separately won the 2015 MBC Entertainment Awards – New Star Award.[23][24]

After Joy's group promotions for Red Velvet's second mini album The Velvet, Joy released a duet with Yook on April 16, 2016 entitled Young Love. The song debuted at number 52 on the Gaon Singles Chart.[25][26] Departing from the show We Got Married on May 7, they became known as one of the longest-running and most popular couples in the show's recent history.[27][28][29] Over the course of We Got Married airing, their videos together on YouTube accumulated over 21.3 million views.[30][31][32]
