Ice Cream Cake was released by South Korean girl group Red Velvet in 2015 as the title track of their first EP of the same name, marking an early breakthrough in their bright, dual-concept pop style. The song's sugary chorus and confident delivery made it an early fan favourite, and its instantly recognisable hook has kept it circulating long after its release. Short clips are now widely reused in fan-made dance videos, K-pop edits and celebratory posts, where a few seconds are enough to signal the song and its playful energy.
