IVE Jang Wonyoung Dodges Question About Her ‘Crush’ With THIS Witty Reply

The way IVE Jang Wonyoung cleverly and elegantly answered a question about her crush brought joy to K-pop fans.

On April 29, IVE was featured on the YouTube channel WIRED for an “Autocomplete Interview.”

In this section, the six members proceeded to respond to the most frequently searched questions about themselves on the internet.

IVE Jang Wonyoung’s Crush Sends Fans Into Frenzy With Her Reply

Specifically, she received a cardboard box containing the most frequently searched questions about her.

Upon opening the first one, it was revealed that it said “Jang Wonyoung crush.”This led fans to wonder, “Who is Jang Wonyoung’s crush?”or if there was someone she was interested in.

Despite the potential for the situation to turn into a dating rumor with just one incorrect response, Jang Wonyoung handled it like the true professional she is. Instead of addressing it head on, she cleverly turned the question back and replied:

“Crush? What does this mean? Like, you have a crush on me or something like that? Crush on me means like, ‘You have fallen for me.’ So maybe DIVEs have a crush on me. Okay. Come on.”

“jang wonyoung… crush?? what does this mean? like… you have a crush on me, or something like that?” “hmm” 😭 YOU ALL KNOW DAMN WELL”so maybe dive crush on me? okay, come on~” her smoothly flirting her way out of that question and yujin’s “great job” lmfao… that’s best idol pic.twitter.com/8wONisg56z

It is amusing to note that a search for the same question on Google only yielded fan edits of K-pop idols expressing their crush on Jang Wonyoung.

When this specific moment gained popularity on the X platform, K-pop fans couldn’t help but laugh at how skillfully she flipped the question to avoid answering it. Instead of getting flustered or panicked, she quickly came up with an appropriate response.

However, some fans were also acknowledging that she may have a point, as DIVEs do seem to have a genuine crush on her.

that’s a professional right there! https://t.co/4Ke7UrW8YC

Jang Wonyoung’s Favorite Food and English Name

During the course of the interview, Jang was also questioned about her preferred cuisine, to which she responded:

“We (all) know, it’s steak! I’m very happy in the U.S. because they are known for their good steak. Also, I like sweets like cheesecake and chocolate fudge or something.”

She also disclosed her English name, which serves as her nickname and alias, in response to another inquiry.

“My nickname is Vicky. I often use it in the U.S. because my English name was Vicky when I was younger. I love (being called) Vicky.”
