The clock is running again. Red Velvet posted a teaser for ❮Level Up Project Season 6❯ on their own channel at eleven in the morning Korean time on August 5, under a title that translates as 'the Level Up clock that had stopped has started moving' — and two minutes forty seconds later the question it raises is answered somewhere else entirely.

That somewhere is Mnet K-POP, which put up its own preview at the same minute. The description carries the line ReVeluv have been waiting for: 'Happiness Vibe for ReVeluv, back after 4 years', followed by 'Red Velvet members take a spectacular team UP journey!' and then the part that matters most — 〈Level Up Project Season 6〉 premieres on August 14 (Fri) at 8PM (KST).

Four official uploads arrived inside a quarter of an hour. The teaser and Mnet's two-minute-thirty-one-second preview at 11:00, a fifty-three-second Short at 11:11, another running a minute and a half at 11:14 — every one of them repeating the same August 14 notice. At the time of writing the teaser had drawn 3,048 views with 1,026 likes and 119 comments; Mnet's preview sat at 252 views, and the two Shorts at 136 and 82.

This desk had August 3 down for Red Velvet already — the 'Velvet Summer' release, logged on the schedule here and covered when it landed. The teaser follows it by two days, which puts a mini album and a returning show eleven days apart on the same artist page.
