Jang Wonyoung, a member of IVE, treated fans to a glimpse of her true personality.
On May 7, 2024, the YouTube channel TEO uploaded a video titled “I got to learn Wonyoung’s mindset? So Lucky Vicky.”The latest guest on Jang Do Youn’s show, “Salon Drip 2,”was Jang Wonyoung on this day.
During the show, Jang Do Young inquired about Jang Wonyoung’s personality when she is not in idol mode.
Jang Wonyoung’s outgoing personality was evident when she revealed that she loves being around others. She confidently stated that she is the type of person who takes the first step in reaching out to others, showing that she is not afraid to initiate social interactions.
The idol clarified, “In fact, I am not shy at all!”
After the episode was broadcasted, a post titled “Doesn’t Jang Wonyoung have a reputation for not having any friends in the entertainment industry?”was shared on the South Korean community forum Nate Pann, which came as a shock to many.
The original poster shared their surprise upon learning that the idol is not shy and is comfortable initiating contact with others. They pondered whether this suggests that Jang Wonyoung has a wide circle of friends in the industry but chooses not to publicize them.
After reading the post, Korean netizens in the comment section concurred with the poster’s theory. They shared the belief that Jang Wonyoung purposely kept her friendships with other idols low-key, a decision deemed wise for her career. It was widely believed that by not emphasizing her relationships, she could ensure a lasting and successful career.
It has been observed that many fans of idols dislike it when their favorite idol excessively displays their friendships, understanding that admiration for a celebrity should not solely be based on their network within the industry. It is believed that idols should prioritize their professional skills and also express appreciation towards their fans. Jang Wonyoung is recognized for excelling in both aspects.
Several comments were read,
- “If idols want to have a long-lasting career, it is better to be like Jang Wonyoung and not show off your friendships than to film reels here and there with other male and female idols and pretend like you’re friends. Jang Wonyoung doesn’t get consumed by that kind of image.”
- “Jang Wonyoung has a friendly personality, and I think she’s the type who thinks it’s unnecessary to show off friendships. I think that’s smart.”
- “A lot of idol fans don’t like it when their bias makes their friendships too obvious, I like Jang Wonyoung for that.”
- “You don’t necessarily like a celebrity because of all their connections with others in the industry… It’s nice that Jang Wonyoung seems to be doing this for her fans.”
- “All idols should focus on is being good at their job and towards their fans.”
