Oh Boy started off their reputation as B-side queens among SK fans. That reputation would only grow with each new release. I can't wait for your The Perfect Red Velvet reaction. RV's full albums are an experience.
I don't know if you're aware but for Wendy's La Rouge version of Light Me Up, she actually changed the second verse lyrics from "Oh boy" to "Oh girl" and that version went viral on 2019 (they were in the middle of La Rogue concert tour when her accident happened so maybe that's the reason why it tooks years before she made it a special video for her birthday).
Wendy started changing the gender in "Light Me Up" in 2016 whenever she would just sing a little bit of the song on radio shows and such. She didn't sing it solo unitl the La Rouge concerts like others have said. And it was very popular with the female fans especially considering a majority of RV fans are girls. And a high number are queer.
Light Me Up is special to Wendy. In a mid-2019 interview she said if there's one RV song she could sing for the rest of her life, it's this song. There's a story around it. The first time she sang it live (in their VLive album intro: th-cam.com/video/V6HB3gDysKg/w-d-xo.html ) she changed the lyrics from "Ooh boy" to "Ooh girl" (in fact, first words she'd ever uttered of the song in public.) Repeated it a few times on shows (switching up in the later choruses) & fans noticed. The most iconic performance is her solo version in their La Rouge concert in late '19, using her lyrics, the same concert she has credited for reviving her lost confidence. It's why her fans are called, among other names, Woogirls (& Wooboys). SM released the La Rouge version MV on her birthday a couple years ago. To me, it's a quintessential Wendy track. Wonder if it's still up there as her fave.
Joy didn't participate in Would U (even in the released track) because of her drama, yes. Would be great if, for their 10th anniversary, they released a version of Would U with Joy, and Happiness and Be Natural with Yeri. But I think it's unlikely.
A few suggestions I have that you should add to the list: - Irene and Seulgi’s cover of Greedy by Ariana Grande. - Seulgi, Wendy and Joy covering Goodbye on Immortal Songs. - Irene and Seulgi on Immortal Songs, which will be released next Saturday. - Their dance practices and recording behind videos. There’s a dance practice for Look from the Perfect Velvet album, but since it seems like you’ve already recorded the reaction to that album and the special clips you could watch the dance practice separately. In a previous comment I mentioned some Irene and Yeri related things to react to and I hope you watch at least some of them as well, since neither of them have had an official solo debut.
Wendy's 'Ooh girl' change in Light Me Up is iconic.

The Light Me Up video was released on Feb 21, 2022, on Wendy's birthday.
She shares a birthday with Mamamoo's Solar

Oh I didn't know about the fan name! It's sooo fitting
I recommend Team Rocket's (Seulgi, Wendy, and Joy) cover of Goodbye on Immortal Songs

for irene, look for Kaching, which is an unreleased song by her with choreo!
